“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
- “On 2 July 2024, Hartford Care Group Limited and its subsidiaries were sold to new shareholders, Deer Capital Hartford Care Homes Limited.”
- “On 18 August 2025, the Group, of which the company is a part, acquired five fully operational care homes across Kent from the Graham Care Group.”

- Working capital / Total assets -0.027 × 6.56 = -0.17
- Retained earnings / Total assets 0.000 × 3.26 = +0.00

Bands: > 2.6 safe · 1.1–2.6 grey · < 1.1 distress. Z″ is a public-formula baseline, not a substitute for adverse-data signals (CCJs, charges, gazette notices) — those land in a later pass.
