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
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- 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
- “AOC Resins UK has transitioned into a service provider for AOC AG, now focusing on invoicing production services instead of selling raw materials. This shift explains the decrease in turnover over the past two financial years and the continuing and discontinued operations split on the statement of comprehensive income.”
- “The state of the factory emerged as a significant issue over the past few years, prompting the leadership team to make substantial investments in capital expenditure (Capex) for the coming years. As a result, the amount of Capex under construction increased significantly by year-end.”
- “Starting from 1st April 2023, the company offers toll manufacturing services, contract R&D, technical support, and sales and marketing support services to AOC AG, in exchange for a cost-plus mark-up. These services constitute the ongoing operations for the financial years ending in 2023 and 2024.”
- “On 3 March 2025, there was a change in the Ultimate Parent Company. For more details, see Note 25.”
- “Additionally, a loan agreement for €6 million was signed on 10 February 2025, between the company and its immediate parent company.”
