Affirmed

“Although the 2024 gross margins were poor and affected by cost of sales and inflationary impact, the directors are confident the margin will return to historical levels in 2025. The confidence is due to recruiting a full time Commercial and Finance Director who will review costs and ensure the costs are managed on a regular basis. Some of this work has involved some procedures changing within the business in relation to purchasing and storing the materials. Other procedures are currently being reviewed and put in place in relation to speeding up the process to quote new jobs. The directors have reviewed the pipeline of committed and potential projects up to February 2026, and regularly do so. The combined committed project value and pro rated pipeline value exceeds the same position 12 months previous by circa two million, so the directors consider this position to be strong. The directors monitor cash flow very regularly to assess whether any cash flow issues may arise. If any short to medium term cash flow issues were to arise Guncast has intercompany lending available from the ultimate parent company within the Group. 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.”
