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
Ratios

- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“Given that the majority of revenues and costs are based on fixed contracts, the directors' base case assessment, which is based on board-approved budgets, is that the company is expected to continue to generate operating cash flows sufficient to cover non-discretionary investing and financing cash flows, and as a result to maintain sufficient liquidity, over the forecast period. There are no indications of any events that would result in significant one-off payments of unforecast liabilities for the company. Further, we have identified a severe but plausible downside scenario that may affect our operations, to reflect a potential cyber-attack or a natural disaster. Whilst this severe downside scenarios have the potential to disrupt the wind farm's operations, the company has entered into long-term fixed price agreements allowing for stable income generation, despite operational challenges, therefore, we do not consider these scenarios to impact the going concern conclusion.”
Significant events
- “In 2024, a significant component exchange campaign was conducted at the wind farm to enhance its operational effectiveness. This initiative led to substantial additions and disposals of property, plant, and equipment, directly associated with the project's execution.”
Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers
