- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“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 has been a difficult year for the company. Continuing volatility in both availability and price of material saw a significant drop in production and sales in the early part of the year. This encouraged us to review our operating structure to ensure that we achieve operational efficiency. As a result of the review, the decision was taken to relocate an associated company and customer of the company from South Wales to Swinton. This will significantly reduce overhead costs for both entities by allowing a continuous process from the reclamation of waste material to the production of PET flake and granules for resale. The relocation commenced in July 2024 and was completed after the year end, however the closure of the Wales site further impacted the company's turnover and profitability in the final quarter of 2024.”
