Audit opinion

Going concern
Affirmed

“The directors believe that preparing the Financial Statements on the going concern basis is appropriate. The company is a financing company with the principal activity of raising finance for use in the business of the Kelda group. As part of determining if the going concern assumption is appropriate for this company, the directors have therefore challenged and scrutinised the ability of the Kelda group to continue as a going concern including the budget and the cash position of the group, specifically the sufficiency of the funds available to fund the operating and capital investment activities of the Kelda group for at least the 12 months from the date of signing the Financial Statements.”

Year-on-year

FY2024 → FY2025 · period ending 2025-03-31 vs 2024-03-31

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
