- 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
- “April 2025 marked a significant leadership milestone with the appointment of Ian Robertshaw as Managing Director, following the retirement of his predecessor.”
- “Wolfgang Voraberger of Rosenbauer International AG joined the Board of Directors, strengthening the strategic connection between Rosenbauer UK and its parent organisation.”
- “The Company continued to invest in future growth during the year. Momentum around new technologies increased substantially, particularly surrounding the interest in our RTE Robot which is expected to perform strongly in the market during 2026.”
- “The Company also invested in a demonstration electric fire vehicle (the Rosenbauer RT), marking an important step in positioning the business to capture emerging demand in this market segment.”
