Audit opinion

Going concern

Affirmed

“After making enquiries, the directors have formed the judgment, at the time of approving the financial statements, that there is 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.”

Significant events

• “The Company experienced continued strength in fee generation, with gross profit increasing by 30.7% period-on-period, primarily attributable to uplifts in temporary fee income. Nevertheless, this positive development was counterbalanced by a 40.6% increase in administrative expenses relative to the prior financial period.”
• “The directors expect activity to improve in the forthcoming period due to the uptick in fees in H2 FY25 which has continued into FY26, therefore the directors remain satisfied with the future prospects of the Company.”

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
