Audit opinion
Unqualified (clean)
Going concern
Affirmed

“The Company has net current liabilities and Shareholders' deficit as at 31 December 2024, and generated a profit for the period. S&P Global Inc., the ultimate parent undertaking, has provided a letter of support committing to ensure the provision of sufficient funds to enable the Company to meet its liabilities for a period until 30 June 2026, which is the going concern period as defined by the Directors.. The S&P Global group has sufficient cash and liquidity to meet ongoing working capital and capital expenditure needs of the group. The result of this is expected to leave the S&P Global group in a positive cash position in twelve months and demonstrates the underlying strength of the business' group and strategy. Any scenario which would see a sufficient decline in forecast results to threaten the going concern status of the group in this period is deemed remote based on recent operating results, a history of accurate forecasting and other mitigating items available to the group. On the basis of their assessment of the Company's financial position where it has sufficient cash to cover all external liabilities and of the enquiries made of and letter of support received from S&P Global Inc., the directors have a reasonable expectation that the Company will be able to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future, Thus, they continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.”

Year-on-year

FY2023 → FY2024 · period ending 2024-12-31 vs 2023-12-31

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
