- Forrester Boyd Robson Limited
- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“At the time of approving the financial statements, the directors have reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. The directors' assertions are supported by positive current and prior year results alongside the company's healthy net asset position and thus the accounts have been prepared on the going concern basis.”
Significant events
- “The 15-month period was dominated by geopolitical disruption. The Russia-Ukraine conflict and subsequent trade sanctions significantly reshaped the whitefish supply chain: The UK applied a 35% duty on Russian-origin seafood. The EU removed Russian produced seafood from ATQ duty suspensions and pays the full rate duty. In 2024, the United States extended sanctions to ban both Russian-origin and third-party processed Russian-origin seafood.”
