- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The Directors have considered the ongoing uncertainty due to the wider macro-economic outlook as part of the Company's adoption of the going concern basis. MVF continues to grow and generate strong cash flows and was not at risk of breaching its financial covenants in relation to its secured bank loans held in the Group. The Board's forecast extends beyond twelve months from signing of these financial statements, including severe downside scenarios. The forecast indicates that MVF will continue to generate cash to meet its financial obligations and there is significant headroom on its financial covenants in relation to Group bank loans. Therefore, whilst there is wider economic uncertainty, the Directors are confident MVF will sustain profitability and cash flow and so believe it remains appropriate to prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis. For more details on going concern, see the basis of preparation in note 1.2.”

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
