Audit & accounting basis
- Accounting basis
- FRS 102
- Auditor
- Ernst & Young LLP
- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The Directors have reviewed the financial position and results of the Company and are confident that it has adequate financial resources to manage its business risks successfully. Accordingly, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the Directors' Report and Financial Statements.”
Significant events
- “In 2024, several key geopolitical and economic developments significantly influenced global financial markets. The protracted political tensions between Russia and Ukraine, along with escalating instability in the Middle East, particularly the Israel-Palestine conflict, continued to exert pressure on market sentiment and stability.”
- “Additionally, the occurrence of national elections in approximately 70 countries throughout the year culminated in a notable political shift in the United States which generated both optimism in certain sectors and introduced uncertainties regarding future policy trajectories, contributing to market volatility.”
- “During the year the Company donated £71,000 to the Conservative and Unionist Party. No donations were made in the prior year.”
Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers
