- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The Board has a reasonable expectation that the Company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason, the directors continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements, which are shown on pages 9 - 17. Global markets have experienced significant levels of uncertainty in the last few years, which has affected most sectors and businesses. After careful consideration of market conditions throughout the year, the key financial risk that the directors have identified for the next financial year is that projected growth is not achieved, resulting in lower profits and cash flows than anticipated. The Group's banking headroom position and associated covenants have been stress tested for various scenarios relating to the key risks, looking in particular at the impact of: 1. Adverse new and current business performance resulting in reduced profits of around 40% compared with 2024; and 2. Adverse new and current business performance resulting in reduced profits of around 50% compared with 2024. These assessments have been reviewed and discussed by the Board of Directors, with consideration given to sensible mitigating actions that are readily available to the companies within the Group.”
Significant events
- “The Company has given security, by way of fixed and floating charges over certain of the Company's assets, to guarantee bank loans and overdrafts provided to certain fellow subsidiary undertakings. The amount outstanding under such arrangements at 31 December 2024 was £1,294,000 (2023: £19,052,000).”
Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers

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
