- Affirmed
“The Directors have undertaken an exercise to review the appropriateness of the continued use of the Going Concern assumption. The assessment period considered by the Directors covers the period to 31st of December 2026. The Directors have reviewed budgets and other financial information and assessed a number of factors as set out below and have concluded there is a reasonable expectation that the Company has adequate financial resources to continue to operate for the foreseeable future.”
Significant events
- “In 2023, the company underwent a thorough reorganization process. In connection with this reorganization, the company decided to exclusively sell its products and services within the capital group. Only a limited number of older orders from previous years were made available for sale to external customers.”
- “In 2025, Cooper Lighting Solutions UK Limited initiated the insourcing of selected production activities previously performed by Telensa Ltd within the Group structure. The process is expected to be fully completed in the third quarter of 2025. In parallel, Cooper commenced the integration of part of the Horti business acquired from Signify. These strategic initiatives are aimed at strengthening the company's operational capabilities, gradually reshaping its business profile, increasing production capacity, and supporting future top-line growth. In addition, the company plans to discontinue the production and sale of products under the iLight brand by the end of 2025.”
- “During 2025 the company changed registered address from 3 Guildford Business Park, Guildford, England, GU2 8XG to 2 Guildford Business Park, Guildford, England, GU2 8XG. This administrative change has no impact on the company's day-to-day operations or its ability to deliver services effectively”

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
