- 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 Club was relegated from the Scottish Premiership after sixteen consecutive seasons in the top division.”
- “Ownership of the Club transferred to a new investor group, and a new Board of Directors was established.”
- “A change in first-team management took place during the season, with a new head coach Simo Valakari appointed in October 2024.”
- “The Club achieved a profit for the financial year.”
- “A major overhaul of the playing squad took place. In total, 23 first-team players departed... 15 new players have since been signed.”
- “The club invested in a new astro-turf pitch at McDiarmid Park, a key milestone in improving training infrastructure.”
