“Notwithstanding net current liabilities of £1,814,669 as at 31 December 2024 (2023: £1,665,267) and a loss for the year then ended of £149,402 (2023: £163,960), the financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which the directors consider to be appropriate for the following reasons. KBR, Inc., the Company's ultimate parent company, has confirmed its intention to continue to provide further financial and other support to KBR Employment Services Limited, including not seeking repayment of amounts currently due to the group, which at balance sheet date amounted to £3,226,077 (2023: £86,503), for at least the next twelve months from the date of approval of these financial statements to enable it to meet its financial liabilities as they fall due and continue to trade.”
