Directors' remuneration

Values shown as filed in the company's annual accounts. indicates the figure wasn't present under that line item in that period. About these numbers

Year-on-year

FY2023 → FY2024 · period ending 2024-12-31 vs 2023-12-31

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

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. The directors have prepared cash flow forecasts for a period of twelve months from the date of approval of these financial statements. As the company does not have external customers and is reliant on funding from the Backbase Group, the ultimate parent company, Twinspark B.V. has confirmed that will provide sufficient financial support to Backbase UK Limited to enable the company to continue to trade and to meet their liabilities as they fall due. Thus the directors continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.”
