Material uncertainty over going concern
We draw the users of the accounts to note 1.2 which states that on the 9th December 2022 the Group sold the trade of Gold Line Feeds Ltd and various plant and machinery belonging to Gold Line Holdings Ltd and Gold Line Feeds Ltd. In addition the remaining assets in the company have been sold or were in the process of being sold at the year end. As a result the remaining fixed assets have been written down in the balance sheet as at 28 April 2024. Accordingly the financial statements have been prepared on a basis other than going concern as described in note 1.2. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.

Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. The comparison is only shown when the latest and prior accounts cover broadly equal-length periods — short or long stubs (typical around incorporation or a year-end change) are suppressed rather than misrepresented. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers
Ratios
Computed from the line items above — sparklines read oldest → newest
| Ratio | Trend | 2020-04-30 | 2021-04-30 | 2022-04-30 | 2023-04-28 | 2024-04-28 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Operating margin | — | -118.1% | — | — | — | |
| Net margin | — | -40.0% | — | — | 17.1% | |
| Return on capital employed | — | -8.3% | — | -31.8% | 8.4% | |
| Gearing (liabilities / total assets) | — | — | — | 42.8% | 8.1% | |
| Current ratio | — | — | — | 1.48x | 12.35x | |
| Interest cover | — | -8.03x | — | -105.61x | — |
Margins divide P&L lines by turnover. Gearing is liabilities over total assets. Current ratio is current assets over creditors falling due within one year. Interest cover is operating profit over absolute finance costs. Margin ratios are hidden where reported turnover is too small relative to profit to yield a meaningful figure — typical of holding companies whose income is mostly subsidiary dividends rather than trading revenue. Sector-distribution context coming next.
