Audit & accounting basis

- Price Bailey LLP
- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The Company is reliant on financial support from its major trading subsidiary and investors. The amount of loan notes due to be repaid in the next 12 months is nil. All loan notes are not due to be repaid until June 2027. The Company expects support from fellow Group undertakings to continue for the foreseeable future. Demand for the Group's services remains strong and new projects for future delivery continue to be secured. Therefore, based on 18 month projections, the Directors expect the group to have adequate resources to continue in operational existence at current levels with headroom within operating facilities for planned growth in FY26 and FY27. Based on the above, the Directors feel it appropriate to prepare the accounts on the going concern basis, and no adjustments have been made should this basis not be applied.”

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
