Audit opinion
Unqualified (clean)
Going concern
Material uncertainty disclosed

“At 30 September 2025, the company was included in a group-wide restructuring exercise whereby the trade and assets were transferred to a fellow subsidiary undertaking at net book value. Following the transfer the company has ceased to trade and there are no plans to re-commence trade or activity in the company in the future. Consequently the directors have prepared the financial statements on a basis other than going concern.”

Year-on-year

FY2023 → FY2024 · period ending 2024-12-31 vs 2023-12-31

Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. The comparison is only shown when the latest and prior accounts cover broadly equal-length periods — short or long stubs (typical around incorporation or a year-end change) are suppressed rather than misrepresented. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers
