Material uncertainty over going concern
Subsequent to the year end the group experienced lower than anticipated yields from its leek and onion crops which has adversely affected projected revenues and short-term cash flows through the final trading quarter of the 2026 financial year. This cash flow is necessary to fund the 2026/2027 growing season. As a result, the directors have been working with the company's bankers, who have been very supportive in relation to the continuation and processing of the groups overdraft facility to ensure that sufficient working capital is available to support the 2026/2027 growing season and associated operating costs. The directors have prepared cash flow forecasts covering a period of at least twelve months from the date of approval of the financial statements which indicate that the group will be reliant on additional funding. The directors consider this additional funding will be sufficient to meet the group's liabilities as they fall due, therefore continue to adopt the going concern basis of preparation.

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.

Significant events
- “Subsequent to the year end, Allpress Farms Limited has experienced lower than expected yields from its leek and onion crops, which has had an adverse impact on projected revenues and cash flows. As a result of the weaker crop performance, the directors have been engaged in discussions with the bankers of Allpress Farms Limited to increase it's overdraft facility in order to provide sufficient working capital to support the 2026/2027 growing season and associated production costs. The bank have been very supportive of the business in this respect.”
