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

Going concern

Affirmed

“The directors are satisfied with the company's performance in the current financial year given the challenging economic environment and the reduction in infrastructure spending in Scotland. The company saw an increase in turnover to £24.9m (2023: £22.8m) and net profit before tax of £0.3m (2023: £Nil). The company did improve gross profit margin to 9.6% (2023: 8.9%), reflecting the growing acceptance of the Kobelco and Sennebogen brands in the Scottish marketplace. At the year-end, the company had net assets of £1.4m (2023: £1.2m) and trading during the first half of the current financial year has been solid and order intake continues to remain strong. Molson Scotland Limited is a wholly owned subsidiary of Molson Group Limited, the ultimate parent company. At the year end, the group had net assets of £16.3m (2023: £27.8m). The directors have prepared forecasts that show the group and company is able to realise its assets and settle its liabilities as they fall due in the normal course of business for a period of at least 12 months from the date of approval of these financial statements. Therefore these financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis.”

Significant events

• “Since the COVID pandemic, the company has seen significant impacts to pricing caused by factors external to its market. Immediately following the COVID pandemic, supply chain issues and the Ukraine war resulted in significant increases in the cost of raw materials that drove up the price of steel and latterly weak economic growth has caused the market to reduce and drive greater price competition.”
