“The directors have a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus, they continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the annual financial statements. The company held a cash position of £7,346,396 as of 31 December 2024 (2023: £10,510,322). Based on this cash position, along with future projections, the directors have verified that the Company has sufficient resources to maintain operations for the foreseeable future. In making this assessment management has undertaken a reforecast of 2025 and 2026 under a range of potential scenarios. Through the analysis performed the directors have verified that the company and the Group have sufficient cash flow resources to maintain operations for a period of at least 12 months from the date of signing of the financial statements. The directors therefore continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the annual financial statements.”

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
