Year-on-year

FY2023 → FY2024 · period ending 2024-12-31 vs 2023-12-31

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 Company was in a net current liability position as at 31 December 2024 however, as the GMS Group has committed to provide financial support to the Company for the foreseeable future, the Company's Directors have performed a going concern assessment at the Group level. The Company's Directors have assessed the financial position of GMS Group (the ultimate holding company) for a period of not less than 12 months from the date of approval of the full year results. The GMS Group's forecasts, having taken into consideration the improved financial performance reported during 2024 and the current high levels of utilisation secured, combined with higher day rates, the Group expects the financial performance to continue to improve during the assessment period. Further, in December 2024, the Group completed the refinancing of a US$ 300.0 million loan facility (comprising a US$ 250.0 million term loan amortised over five years and a US$ 50.0 million working capital facility), denominated in United Arab Emirates Dirhams (AED). The three banks, two of which are current lenders, have an equal participation to the term loan and to the working capital facility. Accordingly, with the continued support from GMS Group the financial statements for the Company for the current period have been prepared on the Going Concern basis.”
