- 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
- “The financial year ending October 2025 saw a reduced turnover of £9.9m, with a gross profit of £1.6m and profit before tax of £798k. Despite challenging market conditions that resulted in lower turnover, the strategic shift toward the specialist foundations market and the withdrawal from residential basement projects has delivered stronger margins.”
- “Geostructural Solutions completed its last basement project in Easter 2025, with the team refocussed on foundation works in house building and and temporary works for a prison. Similar type of works are also in the pipeline for 2026.”
- “Capital investment was minimal, but upgrades to the piling rigs were carried out by installing human recognition cameras in the heavy piling rigs. However, we have invested in a new piling rig for the next financial year to support growth.”
- “GSS Piling is aiming to achieve Net Zero emissions by 2030 in line with parent Morrisroe's common goals and strategies.”
- “The Company enters 2026 with an improved pipeline and outlook for the full year.”
