- Going concern
- Affirmed
“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 group's and parent 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
- “Following the UK leaving the European Union on 31 January 2020, uncertainty has increased surrounding the outlook of the UK economy. Scorpion Group has taken steps to establish subsidiaries outside of the UK, in Canada and in Italy which it believes will contribute to the continued growth of the business.”
- “The Directors are planning for AutoKontrol to cease trading with all the principle activities carried out through Scorpion Automotive, this will lead to the ultimate dissolution of AutoKontrol.”
- “We expect to make other acquisitions within FY25. The focus here is accelerating growth, increasing market share, securing routes to market and acquiring new technologies and talent.”
