- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The directors consider that there are no material uncertainties that may cast significant doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Accordingly the financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis. On the basis of the cash position of the Company as at the date of approval of the financial statements, the forecasted cashflows and financial performance for the Company, the directors believe that the Company will have sufficient cash reserves and available facilities in order to meet its debts as and when they fall due for the foreseeable furutre and therefore the going concern basis of accounting has been applied to these financial statements.”
Significant events
- “Our largest customer experienced a significant cyber-attack in late August, which had a direct impact on production schedules and order volumes in the latter half 2025, leading to a temporary decline in sales.”
Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers
