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

- Beavis Morgan Audit Limited
- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.”
Significant events
- “2024 was a solid year. The practice's turnover has remained stable with a marginal increase of 2.13%. 84% of our workload for 2025 is already confirmed and should deliver an increase on our 2024 figures. We will continue to explore new opportunities and new work throughout 2025 to ensure a continuity of projects into 2026.”
- “Changes to Building Regulations legislation through the introduction of the Building Safety Act has also created an opportunity lo expand our portfolio of work to include the Principal Designer role under the Act which also allracts additional fees. This sector continues to grow and we have established ourselves as competent professionals in this area.”
