“In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.”
Significant events
- “The year to 31 May 2025 saw continued new business contract wins, demonstrating that our strategy to increase our geographic reach within the public sector is working very well. In June/July 2024, FDM successfully supported public sector clients with the provision of 100% accurate data, print and mailing services for the UK general election. However, this excellent result was tempered by the Government's decision to defer some local elections in May 2025 as part of its stated plan to reorganise a number of town and county councils into unitary authority areas, meaning our local election business was substantially reduced for the May 2025 local elections. As a direct result turnover reduced by 11% to £19,385,606.”
- “FDM upgraded its colour digital presses, improving colour management, which has directly supported business wins in new private sector markets. A significant investment in state-of-the-art digital print equipment and associated process management software, will take place in the trading period ending 31 May 2026, supporting our growth strategy.”
