- Affirmed
“At 30th September 2025, the company had net current liabilities of £43,870,000. At the time of signing of these financial statements no material uncertainties exist related to events or conditions that may give rise to significant doubt as to the company's ability to continue in operations for the foreseeable future. The entity continues to generate positive cash flows from operations which provides the directors with reasonable expectation that the company will be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due for at least 12 months from the date of the approval of the financial statements and as a result these financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis. Also a letter of support has been provided by the ultimate parent entity Air Products & Chemicals, Inc. which confirms the company would receive financial support if needed at least for the 12 months from the date of the approval of the financial statements for the year ended 30th September 2025.”
