- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“In auditing the accounts, we have concluded that the directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the accounts 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 accounts are authorised for issue.”
Significant events
- “The creditors days have increased due to increases in product prices, and slow demand. The prices have been increasing in the light of the tariffs, and the war between Russia and Ukraine.”
Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers
