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.

Significant events

• “2024 was a challenging year for Stancold, with revenue falling significantly below expectations. Although order intake improved notably in the second half of the year, the timing of project start dates means that much of this revenue will not be recognised until 2025.”
• “Throughout 2024 and into early 2025, we have invested in strengthening our finance, commercial, and delivery teams with experienced professionals. These new appointments are enhancing our ability to manage risk, improve project profitability, and deliver consistent client satisfaction.”
• “We have restructured and expanded the Board to provide clearer strategic leadership, with a renewed focus on long-term planning, risk governance, and accountability. This improved oversight is enabling the business to act with more confidence in a dynamic market.”
