- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the director's 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 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 new flexible packaging division increased in line with expectations and is now contributing to the business. During the year we have invested heavily with 2 large digital printing presses and 2 new pouchmakers. We are now well positioned to expand with this market.”
Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers
