- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“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. 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 company suffered a 7.5% reduction in turnover, however had a much bigger increase (3.9%) in the gross profit margin which compensated for the increase in overheads.”
- “During the year, additional properties were acquired, costing £1.272 million.”
- “On 1 March 2026, the company repurchased 10,000 ordinary shares from a minority shareholder for a consideration of £175,000.”
- “On 1 April 2026, the company allotted 12,728 A Ordinary £1 shares to the owners for a consideration of £360 per share. The consideration was satisfied by the owners transferring to the company their interests in four UK companies: Laville Limited, Perimart Limited, Alphacrown Limited and Waypower Limited. The owners subsequently sold their shares to Channa Bidco Limited, a company registered in Jersey, which is now the company's immediate and ultimate parent company. There was no change in the ultimate owners of the company. Associated with this reorganisation, the company received dividends of £5.7m from the newly acquired subsidiaries and paid dividends of £7.5m to its parent.”
