“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
- “In 2024, anticipated declines in sales volumes within our traditional cylinder head business were offset by increased activity in our structural parts segment, aligning with our long-term diversification strategy. Additionally, we commenced production in the fourth quarter of 2024 on a new contract, further diversifying into finished machining and assembly.”

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
