- 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
- “On 26 November 2025 the company was subject to a management buyout, whereby all the company's shares were acquired by SNARMS Limited, a company partially under the control of the directors Mr N C Browne and Mr A J Ceely, and the company secretary Mrs S J Gomes.”
