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

- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The Directors believe that the company's financial statements should be prepared on a going concern basis as they have a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence during the going concern period and that there no material uncertainties and risk around the business for it not to be a going concern.”
Significant events
- “The directors decided to close the manufacturing site in Glasgow. The site produced two SKUs - Nougat Wafers and Oyster Delights. ... Exceptional costs of £1,074,778 have been incurred in 2024 in relation to this decision.”
- “In June 2023, the company awarded 6 employees with a 15% discount on share purchases in Orkla ASA, the ultimate parent company. A total number of 2,220 shares were purchased at a total cost of £13,487.”
