Material uncertainty over going concern
We draw attention to note 2.3 of the financial statements, which sets out that the LLP's freehold property assets and activities are expected to be sold or hived up to another entity within the new group following an expected change of ownership that is due to complete in 2025. As stated in note 2.3, these events represent a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt on the LLP's ability to continue as a going concern.

Significant events
- “On 10th April 2025, the shareholders of Johnsons Cars Limited and the members of Johnsons Cars UK LLP exchanged contracts for the sale of the company and the investment partnership to AWR Holdings Limited. This is planned to complete during 2025. It is likely that within a 3-month period the investments held by Johnsons Cars UK LLP will be transferred to another corporate entity and the investment partnership will become dormant.”

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
