- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The directors have prepared a business plan and forecasts for the Group, which show that the Group will be able to operate within the bank facilities available – the plan includes cashflow forecasts which are regularly reviewed by the Board so that alternative action can be taken if there is significant deviation form the plan. Accordingly, the directors are satisfied that the Group can meet its liabilities as they fall due for the foreseeable future, being a period of not less than 12 months from the date of approval of these financial statements and have decided that it is appropriate to prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis.”

Significant events
- “The company has completed the construction of a 50,000 sq.ft. building at 10 Station Road. Letting activity had been progressing well with a single tenant having agreed terms to take the whole building, however close to completion the tenant changed strategy and the building is currently vacant.”
- “The commercial development of the final site at CB1 is proving difficult to bring forward in the current market in terms of viability, given the need to reprovide all of the railway parking spaces; As a consequence the Directors have made an impairment provision of £4,061k against the costs expended on this project.”
- “A planning application for approximately 850,000sq.ft of commercial space and 425 homes was submitted in 2022. However due to the failure of the planning authority to consider the application in a timely manner, an appeal for non-determination was submitted to the Secretary of State in early 2023. The Secretary of State and his Department determined the appeal and granted permission for the development in April 2024.”

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
