- 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
- “On 13 June 2025, the pension scheme secured a buy-in of £19,030,000 with Just Retirement Limited through the sale of a portion of its invested assets This insurance policy covers all of the pension scheme liabilities and ensures sufficient funds are available to meet future obligations, subject to final data cleansing and GMP equalisation calculations”
- “a revolving credit facility which was renewed on 23 June 2026 for a period of three years”
