- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The Company meets its day-to-day working capital requirements through its cash reserves. After making enquiries and reviewing the Company's forecasts and projections, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the Company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for at least the next 12 months from the date of approval of these financial statements. Forecast and projections included; reviewing repayment of liabilities, taking account of possible changes in trading performance and stress testing such performance. The Company therefore continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing its financial statements. 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 27 March 2024, Ravenscroft Holdings Limited completed the sale of the Company and its immediate parent, Ravenscroft Investments (UK) Limited, to Titan Wealth Services Limited. The Company and its parent were then immediately sold to Titan Investment Management Holdings Limited. As a result, the year end of the Company was changed to 31 March 2024 to align with the ultimate controlling party of the Company and the results contained within these financial statements reflect the 15 month period to 31 March 2024.”
- “The current period saw a challenging backdrop for the Company. The Company experienced client attrition during the period, as can be seen in the fall in assets under administration, which had a knock-on effect to revenues and coupled with this some large one-off expenses relating to a retrospective client redress, operating profit for the period was significantly impacted to the point of becoming loss-making for the period.”
- “The completion of the sale of the Company by Ravenscroft Holdings Limited to Titan Wealth Services Limited and subsequent sale to Titan Investment Management Holdings Limited occurred on 27 March 2024. Titan Investment Management Holdings Limited is a discretionary investment management business operating across the United Kingdom. The ultimate controlling party of the Company has recently acquired a number of similar businesses in the United Kingdom and plans to intergrate the Company into its growing strategic network.”

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
