“The company has net current liabilities of £10,971,745 (2024: £8,429,743) but made a profit before tax of £4,021,298 (2024: £3,920,352). The company has continued to perform well post year end and continue to generate a similar level of turnover and profit. The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which assumes that the company will continue in business for at least 12 months from the date these financial statements were approved. The director believes the company will continue to generate sufficient turnover which will enable the company to continue as a going concern.”
