- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, not withstanding net current assets for the group of £11,886 (2024: £6,344 (liabilities)) and net current liabilities for the company of £393,902 (2024: £686,837). The directors have prepared detailed cash flow forecasts and projections which show that the group should continue to operate within their current working capital facilities. The group has the ongoing support of the loan note holders and during the year rights to interest on the balance of the loan notes was waived. The directors have a reasonable expectation that the group has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the forseeable future and have therefore prepared the financial statements on a going concern basis.”

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
