  Material uncertainty over going concern

  We have prepared budget and forecasts based on various scenarios for the period of 12 months from the date of approving the financial statements of the Company for the year ended 31 December 2025, and are of the opinion the business can meet its operating liabilities as they fall due. However the company was in a net liabilities position at 31 December 2025, and is part of a group cash pool arrangement, hence is reliant on the parental support. The directors have received a letter of support from Sensient Technologies Corporation (the company's ultimate parent undertaking) confirming that it will provide continuing financial support to the Company for a period of 12 months from the date of approving the financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2025.

Material uncertainty disclosed

“We have prepared budget and forecasts based on various scenarios for the period of 12 months from the date of approving the financial statements of the Company for the year ended 31 December 2025, and are of the opinion the business can meet its operating liabilities as they fall due.

Significant events

• “In December 2023, the board of directors of Sensient Technologies Corporation ("Sensient") the ultimate parent company, approved a plan to undertake an effort to optimize certain production facilities and improve efficiencies within Sensient. As part of that plan, in February 2024, the board of directors of Sensient Flavors Limited evaluated the potential closure of its manufacturing facility in Felinfach, Wales, United Kingdom.”
• “The Felinfach facility continued to operate until May 2025, after which time the production activities were fully transferred to other locations.”
• “In February 2026, the company completed the sale of the Felinfach freehold property to a third party buyer for £1,500,000, which lead to a partial reversal of impairment made in previous years.”
