“In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. 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 the date when the financial statements are authorised for issue.”
Significant events
- “On 15 August 2024, Keltbray Infrastructure Services Limited (KISL) and its statutory subsidiaries, including Aureos Highways Limited, were acquired by EMK Capital, a global private equity firm. Following the acquisition, KISL was renamed and branded 'Aureos Infrastructure Services Limited' on the 20 December 2024, after the 2024 financial year-end.”

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
