- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- 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
- “Our targeted growth strategy saw us open three new children's homes this year giving an additional 5 places, all providing care for children with more complex needs.”
- “two further properties were purchased during the year that will open as new children's homes across 2025 and 2026 and one of our existing properties underwent substantial refurbishment to convert it into a 36 place independent specialist day school which opened in May 2025.”
- “Education remains a pivotal growth area, marked by the successful opening of four new schools during 2023-24, 2024-25 was a period of embedding and we will return to significantly expanding our education provision through 2025-26.”
- “Our Care division continues its strategic focus on sustainability and targeted growth, increasing our capacity for children with more complex needs by five places through 2024/25, alongside the successful repurposing of two 'traditional' services to better meet evolving demands of our stakeholders.”
- “In October 2026 the Group's Finance Director, Tim Horrocks, succeeded Simon Hammond, who stepped down from his role, as the Chief Executive Officer for the Group.”
- “Since the year end Hexagon Care Services has opened a 36 place independent school and two further children's homes. There are also a number of new children's homes in the pipeline which are expected to open in the next 6 months.”

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
