- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The accounts are prepared on a going concern basis. The validity of the going concern basis depends on the ability of the company to operate within available funding. The company has net current liabilities at the year end due to the pre-existing gap in funding for the development and extension of the public spaces within the Theatre Royal which has been funded by repayable loans. The directors are confident that, with the temporary assistance of the Ultimate Parent Company, Scottish Opera Theatre Royal can meet its liabilities as they fall due, for the foreseeable future, and on this basis consider it appropriate to prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis.”
Significant events
- “There are contingent liabilities totalling £5,057,000 (2024 - £5,057,000) in respect of a grant from the Scottish Government which may become repayable on the sale of the relevant property, or in the event of a change in the main purpose of the property, or in the event of a liquidation of the company. Standard securities have been granted in favour of Creative Scotland over the freehold property at Hope Street, Glasgow.”

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
