Going concern
Affirmed

“The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. The directors are satisfied that the financial needs of the Company should be met within its current banking facility. The Company has conducted an assessment on the potential financial and operational risks to the business, considering any financial implications arising from the following: Forecast trading performance for the remainder of 2025, and through to 30 September 2026; Cash flow projections; Order books. It is the directors' opinion, that due to the diverse portfolio of different businesses within Kongsberg, and the strength of the ultimate parent company, no such plausible scenarios currently exist.”

Year-on-year

FY2023 → FY2024 · period ending 2024-12-31 vs 2023-12-31

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
