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

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. Sector-distribution context coming next.

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

• “Oxley Developments delivered a record year of order intake, revenue and profitability in 2025, driven by strong customer demand across key product groups serving defence and civil aerospace and land platforms. This performance reflects operational efficiencies and the successful execution of multi-year agreements with global customers.”
• “Company revenue increased by 20% to £18.8m (2024: £15.7m), primarily supported by growth in LED Lighting Systems, which remains a core strategic product group.”
• “Pre-tax profit increased to £1.9m (2024: £1.6m), reflecting higher sales volumes and improved margins achieved through manufacturing enhancements and efficiency gains.”
• “The cash balance increased to £3.2m (2024: £2.3m), driven by operational performance.”
• “During 2025, Oxley invested substantially in people, resources, and capital equipment, including major projects at the Ulverston site. Workforce development remains a priority, evidenced by Oxley achieving Gold accredited membership of the 5% Club's Employer Audit Scheme in November 2024, recognising our commitment to apprenticeships and skills development.”
