“The directors have a reasonable expectation that the Company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence in the foreseeable future, for a period of at least 12 months from the date of signing and approving of these financial statements. The Company, and all legal entities within the Group, are party to the same banking arrangement, the Company is guarantor to the arrangement by way of a cross guarantee in favour of the lenders. The Directors have considered and reviewed, at Group level, forecast compliance with bank covenants and headroom availability during this period and do not forecast to be in breach of the covenants, or exceeding borrowing limits, at any of the test points. As such, the Directors have a reasonable expectation that there are no material uncertainties and continue to adopt the going concern assumption in the preparation of the financial statements.”
Significant events
- “In March 2025 trading with regards to the MINI businesses operated by the Company changed from franchised dealerships to an agency model. Under an agency model the Company receives a fee for facilitating the sale of new vehicles but the Company will not hold new vehicle stock, there is no structural or operational impact on the other areas of the business. Transfer of systems have been implemented and the process has been well managed with appropriate training supplied to colleagues. At the date of this report there was no confirmation of changes in relation to the way the Company operates BMW franchises.”

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
