- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“In assessing the company's ability to continue as a going concern, the directors have considered the performance of the business through 2025 and ongoing performance and cash flow in 2026. The directors believe these results, including continued growth in trading and resilience in the financial performance of the company, coupled with the positive outlook and the continued support of the parent WSH, reinforce the directors' confidence that the company can meet all its obligations as they fall due through to at least the end of 2027. Accordingly, the directors have formed a judgement that it is appropriate to prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis.”
Significant events
- “During 2025, the company performed strongly, driven by growth in turnover with our existing clients and a pleasing number of new customers joining the BaxterStorey Scotland family.”
- “In 2025 the establishment of a WSH Risk Committee further strengthened the company's approach to risk oversight and leadership.”
- “Acquisitional growth reflects the capture of data for The Genuine Dining Co. Limited group, only partially reported in the 2024 data post-acquisition in September 2024.”
- “During 2025 WSH completed a target review informed by a Double Materiality Assessment ('DMA') conducted in line with the EU Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD).”
