- Going concern
- Affirmed
“In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the group's and parent company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.”

Significant events
- “FY24 was a very strong year for Northwood Manipa with investment in additional converting capacity and acquisition of the Madrid factory being notable highlights. Manufactured volume increased 33% on the back of the increased capacity and, although overall sales volume increased by 21%, the year-on-year improvement in turnover was only 6% due to the average selling price decreasing 12%.”
