- Going concern
- Affirmed
“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
- “In 2025 we focused on our operating expenses such as costs of transportation and warehouse as well as our staff expenses. We managed to keep our stock at a lower level to prior years resulting in lower (external) warehouse expenses. Furthermore we managed to increase the volume of our own deliveries and made better deals with our external transportation parties.”
