- Going concern
- Affirmed
“At the time of approving the financial statements, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus the directors continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.”
Significant events
- “On 10 October 2025 the company lost a HMRC Tribunal appeal. The liability has been included in the accounts in other creditors. The previous owner has committed to providing financial support for this liability as the original events occurred when he was the owner of the company. The matching debt has been included in other debtors.”
