- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The Members have a reasonable expectation that the Group has adequate resources and, crucially, support from its Members, to whom it owes significant sums, to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future, including the period of at least 12 months following the date of this report. Thus they continue to adopt the going concern basis for accounting in preparing the annual financial statements.”

- Gordons Trustees Limited 100%
Significant events
- “Gordons had another strong year, with turnover up seven per cent to £23.8m and net profit rising nine per cent to £13.2m. That represents five years of continuous growth, with profit up 60% and turnover up 32% since 2020. This growth came from deepening relationships with long-standing clients and winning new work, especially in the retail and technology sectors. Our commercial teams performed exceptionally well, boosting their turnover by 12%. We also maintained our commitment to social mobility, continuing to work with local schools and expanding our apprenticeship programme.”

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
