BEYOND SPORT FOUNDATION

• ⚠

  Material uncertainty over going concern

  We draw attention to note 1.2 in the financial statements which indicates that while the trustees have a reasonable expectations that the charity will continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future, there is a reliance on external funding from the Benchmark Group. The fact that this funding is not legally binding gives rise to a material uncertainty relating to going concern.

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

Margins divide P&L lines by turnover. Gearing is liabilities over total assets. Current ratio is current assets over creditors falling due within one year. Interest cover is operating profit over absolute finance costs. Sector-distribution context coming next.
