Year-on-year

FY2023 → FY2024 · period ending 2024-09-30 vs 2023-09-30

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

Audit opinion

Going concern
Affirmed

“The directors have adopted the going concern basis in preparing these financial statements having given due consideration to the liabilities of the company, the financial resources available to meet its obligations and the consistent earnings growth over the years. The directors have also considered the impact of a severe but plausible downside scenario in their assessment. The company supplies its services to third party entities, however the structure of the transfer pricing arrangements with Cybersource US are such that should third party revenues experience significant deterioration to the extent that the company is loss making, Cybersource US will recompense the company such that its operating profit margin is 5%. Cybersource US, and ultimate parent Visa Inc. balance sheets have sufficient capacity to withstand significant interruption without jeopardizing their capital or liquidity positions. The period covered by the directors' assessment of going concern is greater than twelve months from the date of approval of the financial statements.”
