- Going concern
- Affirmed
“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 when the financial statements are authorised for issue.”

Significant events
- “Underlying operating profits remained broadly flat in 2024 as the improved gross profits that were generated as a result of better control of stock and improved buying margins were mostly offset by the continued Inflationary pressures which continue to hamper our recovery.”
- “To enable the business to manage the ever increasing cost of dispensing prescriptions, beta testing was completed in the final quarter of 2024 for our central dispensing hub in Broxburn. Following a hugely successful test, the business has now completed the full role out of centralised dispensing across all pharmacies, enabling them to be serviced by the central dispensing hub.”
- “In addition to these changes, we have also started to increase the number of Independent Prescriber pharmacists (IPs) that we employ across the business. Independent Prescribers can provide advice on and prescribe for a wider range of ailments than pharmacists who have not yet achieved the IP qualification.”
- “Whilst the changes outlined above will allow us to navigate the structural changes being seen across community pharmacy, we will however be significantly impacted by the changes in the budget in April 2025 in respect of Employers National Insurance.”
