- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“In assessing the Company's ability to continue as a going concern, the directors have considered the performance of the business through 2024 and ongoing performance and cash flow in 2025. The directors believe these results, including continued growth in trading and resilience in the financial performance of the Company, coupled with the positive outlook and the continued support of the parent WSH, reinforce the directors' confidence that the Company can meet all its obligations as they fall due through to at least the end of 2026. Accordingly, the directors have formed a judgement that it is appropriate to prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis.”
Significant events
- “In 2012, in order to galvanise our considerable activities, we formed the BaxterStorey Scotland Foundation beneath the umbrella of our parent company's charitable foundation, The WSH Foundation. The WSH Foundation was established as a registered charity in 2008 to channel charitable funds towards local communities and charitable causes that are consistent with the company's core values. Funds raised by the WSH Foundation in 2024 amounted to £174,000 (2023: £142,000). Total funds raised to date by the WSH Foundation stand at £5.4m. The trustees of the WSH Foundation include directors of BaxterStorey Scotland Limited. Donations by the WSH Foundation in 2024 amounted to £77,000 (2023: £39,000), bringing the total donations by the WSH Foundation to date to £4.8m. Donations in the period were predominantly made to the Natasha Allergy Research Foundation (further details below).”

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
