- 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 group's and the parent 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
- “During the year the group turnover has decreased to £8.2m (2024: £64.3m) due to the impact of VMO2's closure of the Franchise Programme (as detailed in last year's report) with costs of the remaining central infrastructure impacting this year's profitability.”
- “As a result of VMO2's decision to close the Franchise Programme which, as described in previous statements, was our main source of turnover, the decision to re-invest and grow the B2B side of the business was made.”
