- Affirmed
“The directors have a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future, thus adopting the going concern basis. Auditors confirmed no material uncertainties casting significant doubt on the company's ability to continue as a going concern for at least twelve months.”
Significant events
- “The company was unable to deliver an increase in gross profit and operating profit over 2024 due to competitive pricing pressures and volume declines in key market segments. However, volume growth is expected in 2025.”
- “In 2024, the company purchased electricity from a renewable generation source from May to December, rendering consumption of electricity 'Net' Zero in terms of greenhouse gas emissions.”
- “The company undertook several initiatives to improve energy efficiency and reduce environmental impact, including fitting a thermoformer with a Heating Auto switch off device, raising chiller dT, and switching off an AC unit.”
