- 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 directors have proposed payment of a dividend of £8,680,300 for the year ended 31 December 2025 (2024: £nil). There are no other adjusting or non-adjusting post balance sheet events which have an impact on these financial statements.”
