“The Directors have reviewed both past performances, the forecasts of the company, the possible impacts of a worsening economic outlook and considered downside scenarios/stress testing, and are satisfied that, given the profit of £2m in 2025, expected future sales growth, and the cash pooling arrangements that exist, that there are adequate resources to enable it to continue in business for the foreseeable future and at least for 12 months following the signature date of these Financial Statements.”

Significant events
- “Geopolitical tensions were relatively settled during 2025 but have taken a marked shift during the past few weeks. In particular the conflict between the US and Iran is widening across the middle-east and likely to result in shipping delays and higher energy costs in 2026. The Company will take steps to try and mitigate this as much as possible.”
- “Global political shifts, such as changes in U.S. leadership and evolving international relations, have created uncertainties that impact UK businesses. These geopolitical dynamics can affect trade agreements, tariffs, and market stability, whilst disrupting supply chains and increasing costs for UK businesses reliant on imported goods.”
- “The UK government increased National Insurance Contributions, effective from April 2025, is resulting in higher employment costs for UK businesses, and has also resulted in higher unemployment at 5.2% at the time of writing. Youth unemployment is particularly high at 16.1%, which could be contributed to both the higher NI rates, increases in Minimum wage, and impacts from AI which is believed to be reducing the need for entry level roles.”
- “A dividend refund of £1,433,000 was received in November 2025 when it was deemed that the dividend declaration and the following dividend payment made in October 2024 was not legally compliant.”
