Audit & accounting basis
- Accounting basis
- FRS 102
- Reporting scope
- Standalone (parent only)
- Auditor
- Saffery LLP
- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“At the time of approving the financial statements, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus the directors continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements. The refinancing carried out in the period has improved the overall working capital and covenant compliance perspective for the company.”
Significant events
- “On 13 March 2024, the Company successfully achieved a refinance of its asset-based lending facility with Metro Bank replacing the revolving credit facility held with Wells Fargo.”
- “We have continued to invest significantly in next generation I.T. infrastructure, including Virtual Reality (VR) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies, designed to enhance the client and candidate experience.”
- “During the year the business proudly partnered with various charities and local community sporting teams. These partnerships reflect our commitment to supporting social causes and fostering genuine collaborations with our community with contributions totalling £77,630.”
