“Based on these forecasts the Directors of Revolt Communications Limited have a reasonable expectation that the Company and the Group have adequate resources to continue in operational existence for at least twelve months after the signing of these financial statements and has therefore provided the Company with a letter of support stating its intention to provide financial and operational support so as to allow it to meet its liabilities as they fall due for a period of at least twelve months from the date of approval of these financial statements.”
Significant events
- “On 21 December 2023 Revolt Communications Limited was acquired by Anthesis Consulting Group Limited, which on 1 August 2023 was acquired by the Carlyle Group alongside reinvestment by management and Palatine Private Equity LLP.”
- “During the prior period, the Company changed its accounting reference date from 31 March to 31 December.”
- “During the year it was identified that £926,629 of right of use asset additions from the period to 31 December 2023 were not recorded in the prior period financial statements. A right of use obligation for those same lease additions of £865,885 was also not recorded. These balances have therefore been restated, along with the cumulative amortisation, which increased by £87,338 and administrative expenses in the prior period to 31 December 2023 have increased by £26,595.”
