- Going concern
- Affirmed
“In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the members' use of 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 limited liability partnership'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
- “On 30 October 2024, 30% of the members' capital was purchased by Pathlines Holdings Limited as part of a wider transaction. As part of that acquisition, all intercompany balances with other members of the previous group of which the business was a part were written off to the profit and loss account, generating a one-off credit of £412,394.”

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
