Going concern

Affirmed

“The Company has incurred a loss of £3,395,000 during the year, and has an excess of assets over liabilities of £6,735,000 at 31 December 2024. The Directors have considered the impact that inflation, availability of labour and materials and the conflict in the Ukraine may have on the Company, and prepared cashflow forecasts for the period to 31 December 2026. Downside sensitivities have been applied to the cashflow forecasts and, even in the unlikely scenario that there is a prolonged decrease in demand for services and that the future contracts that the Company is targeting do not proceed, the Company still has adequate resources to continue operations. The Company has furthermore received a letter of support from Equans Group UK Limited ("EGUK"). The Directors have considered the ability of EGUK to provide financial support to the Company and have satisfied themselves that EGUK is able to provide support for the period to 31 December 2026.”

Significant events

• “During 2024, the Company's financial performance was significantly affected by a loss-making contract in Germany, which alone accounted for a loss of £25,137,000 during the year.”
• “During the year ended 31 December 2024, the Company reported two RIDDOR (Reporting of Injuries, Diseases and Dangerous Occurrences Regulations 1995) incidents (2023: nil).”
• “New orders have been secured in 2024.”
• “The Directors have considered the effects of the conflict in Ukraine and the Middle East and have not identified any material impact on the Company's business or operations.”
• “The completion in 2024 of phase 3 of the Energy Savings Opportunity Scheme.”

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
