- Going concern
- Affirmed
“At the time of approving the financial statements, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future as it is backed up by the resources of it's subsidiary company, Unique Forwarding Limited. Thus the directors continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.”

Significant events
- “The company's subsidiary faces competition in its markets and is of course subject to consumer and commercial spending patterns and the overall level of disposable income within the economy.”
- “Foreign exchange fluctuations can no longer be considered a secondary risk and given the volatility in the foreign currency market due to worldwide political events, the directors have evaluated several options to mitigate risk/implement risk management strategies”
- “Whilst inflation has dropped in the UK this risk is being closely monitored, due to numerous overseas suppliers and constant changes in the worldwide economy. Procurement becomes more complex during inflationary periods, and if increased costs are not controlled adequately then demand typically falls.”
- “Understanding Political and Geopolitical issues is critical for stakeholders in the shipping industry to navigate the complexities and mitigate risks associated with these dynamics.”
- “The biggest risk to the company's subsidiary that could affect liquidity continues to be that of non-payment from customers.”

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
