“In assessing whether it is appropriate to prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis, the Directors prepared cash flow forecasts for the period through to 30 September 2027 to assess whether the Company can meet its liabilities as they fall due during that period. These forecasts take into account the Directors' best estimate of the future trading performance of the Company, including the impact of the business restructuring. The Directors also performed a reverse stress test to assess the effect of a severe reduction in sales. Both the base case and sensitised forecasts indicate that the Company has sufficient financial resources to meet its liabilities as they fall due throughout the period assessed. In addition, the Directors obtained written confirmation from the ultimate parent undertaking, MANN+HUMMEL Holding GmbH, that it would be willing to provide financial support if required throughout the forecast period. Having reviewed the ability of MANN+HUMMEL Holding GmbH to provide such support, together with the Company's own net asset position, forecast profitability and expected cash flows, the Directors have concluded that it is appropriate to prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis.”
Significant events
- “During the year, the Company commenced a restructuring programme following a review of the MANN+HUMMEL Group's operations. On 23 June 2025, the Directors proposed the closure of the Chard manufacturing facility, and following a consultation process, this was confirmed on 23 September 2025.”
- “Manufacturing activities currently undertaken at Chard will be transferred to other entities within the MANN+HUMMEL Group's overseas manufacturing network, with closure expected by the end of the first quarter of 2027. The decision was taken following a review of cost structures and capacity across Group sites, which identified that Chard has a higher fixed-cost and overall cost base than comparable plants, particularly as market requirements and customer needs continue to evolve. The decision is expected to affect approximately 55 employees.”
- “Restructuring provisions and asset impairments arising from this decision have been recognised in the financial statements in accordance with applicable accounting standards.”
