- Affirmed
“The Directors have prepared cash flow forecasts for a period of 12 months from the date of approval of these financial statements. These forecasts, which incorporate reasonable possible downsides, reflect the latest view of the Company's markets, and indicate that the Company will have sufficient funds to meet its liabilities as they fall due for that period. The Directors have also forecast a severe but plausible downside scenario (of 25% reduction in order intake levels from the baseline forecast) which demonstrate the company will be able to meet its liabilities as they fall due in this scenario. On this basis the directors have prepared these financial statements on a going concern basis.”
Significant events
- “During the year three showrooms and one franchise outlet were closed (2024 - two new showrooms were opened and none closed).”
- “The Company held £561K (2024: £2,422K) of cash at the end of the year, arising from undistributed earnings and advance deposits received from customers. The balance reduced during the year due to the timing of settlement of related company invoices.”
- “The reduction in net assets in the year was attributable to distributions of historically retained earnings.”
