Audit opinion

Going concern

Affirmed

“The financial liquidity position of the Company is such that it is well placed to manage its business risks successfully. The directors expect that the Company has available resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future, despite the current uncertain economic outlook. Thus the going concern basis of accounting has been adopted in preparing the annual financial statements.”

Significant events

• “This provision relates to the contingent liability disclosed in the prior year Audited Financial Statements for which full and final settlement was reached after the year end. An equivalent asset has been recognised in respect of reimbursement under the company's insurance policies resulting in no net liability or profit and loss impact to the company.”

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
