- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“After making enquiries, the directors, for a period of at least twelve months from the date of signing these financial statements, the company and its group have adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Accordingly, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the annual report/financial statements.”
Significant events
- “2025 gave us continued economic uncertainty, a nervous UK manufacturing sector, high interest rates, a shortage of labour, all of which impacted our business. This impact was clear in our order entry levels which were down on prior year. However, a clear improvement in the second half of 2025 on new machinery has improved our backlog position coming into 2026.”
- “In July 2024 the Court of Appeal upheld a June 2023 High Court ruling in the case of Virgin Media Limited vs NTL Pension Trustees, which considered the implications of Section 37 of the Pension Schemes Act 1993...As there is not yet sufficient certainty to make a reliable estimate of the impact, no adjustments have been made within these financial statements as a result of this ruling.”
Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers
