- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. The Company is part of the Mizkan Euro Holdings Limited group pooling facility and therefore the Group cashflows have been reviewed to assess going concern. The Group has prepared cashflows for the next twelve months under various scenarios, including an estimated severe downside scenario. The Group has sufficient financial support to meet liabilities as they fall due for a period of at least 12 months from the approval of the financial statements. The Company has also received a letter of support from its parent company Mizkan Holdings Co., Ltd. stating that it will provide adequate liquid resources to ensure that the Company can settle its obligations for a period of at least twelve months from the date of approval of these financial statements.”
Significant events
- “On 4 April 2025, the Company acquired the trade and assets of ZENB UK LTD., a fellow subsidiary company wholly owned by Mizkan Euro Holdings Limited. Following the acquisition, the Company undertook a comprehensive strategic review of its ZENB business... a decision was made to cease trading as of 28 February 2025.”
- “The closure resulted in £690,000 of exceptional costs being recognised in the financial statements. From the date of acquisition to the end of the financial year, the acquired assets contributed revenue of £971,000 and a loss before tax of £2,901,000.”

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
