Audit opinion

Unqualified (clean)

Going concern

Affirmed

“The directors have prepared group financial projections through to April 2027 which demonstrate that the company and group can operate within existing working capital facilities. On this basis, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the company and group have adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Post year end following the acquisition by Allegion, the current borrowings have been repaid and the group is financed by a line of credit from Allegion. Allegion have provided a letter of support confirming their on going funding arrangements for the group. Thus, the directors continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.”

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
