- Auditor
- Haysmac LLP
- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“In adopting the going concern basis for preparing the financial statements for the period ended 29 September 2025, the Directors have considered the business model as set out on page 14, the Group's principal risks and uncertainties as set out on page 26 as well as taking into account the current cash position and potential facilities. Based on the Group's cash flow forecasts and projections, the Board is satisfied that the Group will be able to operate within the level of its facilities for the foreseeable future. In making this assessment, the Directors have made a specific analysis of the impact of the economic uncertainty arising from the rise in inflation, along with the impact of the cost of living crisis. For this reason, the Board considers it appropriate for the Group to adopt the going concern basis in preparing its 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
