- Going concern
- Affirmed
“In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting is appropriate. Based on the work 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 or the 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
- “The principal activities of the group are the manufacture of steel wire mesh and hard drawn wire, the supply of reinforcing bars, fencing products and concrete accessories, operating as steel merchants and property investment and development.”
- “The principal KPIs adopted by the group were turnover growth and gross profit percentage. A calculation of the sales figures indicates a 12% decrease over the previous year. This sales figure is largely due to Hy-ten Limited activity. GPM has decreased from 15% to 11%.”
- “A final dividend of £1,500,000 was approved on 27 June 2025 and recognised as a liability at the year end. An impairment charge of £3,500,000 was recognised in the year ended 30 June 2025 resulting in a loss for the year of £1,000,000.”
