Going concern

Affirmed

“In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.”

Significant events

• “The impact of high US tariff's on goods manufactured in China may affect the upcoming financial year, due to the unpredictable and volatile nature of the current US Government trading policies.”
• “Fluctuations in foreign exchange rates; The international nature of Rubber Road's business results in the potential for currency losses, which we manage by trading in USD currency with customers and suppliers.”
• “The loss of a major trading relationship; The company has long-standing relationships with some major customers, and the leadership team invests significant time in maintaining regular communication to mitigate the risk of losing such relationships.”
• “Price Risk; Rubber Road is focused on designing and developing unique product lines and brands (...) to avoid comparisons to competitors products, and as such, being dragged into compelilive pricing pressures.”
• “Credit Risk; The Credit Risk is mitigated by our robust credit policy for all Customers, by evaluating, validating and monitoring tools at our disposal (...) and by regularly reviewing publicly available financial statements. We have a healthy credit insurance policy in place.”
• “A product safety issue; Rubber Road operates in the consumer products industry, which is subject to significant regulation, including stringent laws relating to product safety.”

Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. Periods don't have to be exactly 12 months apart — a long or short period (typical around incorporation or year-end changes) will distort the comparison. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers
