“Notwithstanding net current liabilities of £5,259,971 on 31 December 2024, the financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which the directors consider to be appropriate. The company meets its day to day working capital requirements through balances held in bank together with operational cashflows, intercompany balances and trading balances with the group headed by NewCold Cooperatief U.A., the ultimate parent company. NewCold Cooperatief U.A., and its affiliates have indicated that they do not intend to seek repayment of amounts currently due to the group, and intend to provide additional support as required, during the going concern assessment period.”
Significant events
- “Our second site in the UK completed their extension in 2024 and started construction of a second extension was completed in 2025. The addition of a second NewCold site in the UK, that is ran under a separate legal entity sister company called NewCold Corby Limited, will significantly enhance the overall offering that NewCold can provide for our customers in the UK.”

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
