Values shown as filed in the company's annual accounts. indicates the figure wasn't present under that line item in that period. About these numbers

Year-on-year

FY2023 → FY2024 · period ending 2024-12-31 vs 2023-12-31

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

Affirmed

“The Directors have prepared forecasts to 31 December 2026, which take into consideration the current economic conditions and global events. The Directors have considered the Company's current and future prospects, its availability of financing, and are satisfied that the Company can continue to pay its liabilities as they fall due for a period until 31 December 2026. The Company have entered into agreements with other UK Group companies to commence the use of pooled bank accounts held by the Company's immediate parent Customs Support UK Group Limited. As a result of the new cash pooling arrangement put in place, the Directors have obtained a letter of support from their immediate parent, Customers Support UK Group Limited confirmed that they are able and willing to provide support to the company for a period to 31 December 2026. The Directors have performed the relevant inquires and have satisfied themselves that the immediate parent company is in a position to provide this support as required for the period to 31 December 2026, which takes into consideration any potential uncertainties particularly around the costs of inflation, and its impact on revenue growth, together with the current economic outlook. Accordingly, the Directors continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.”
