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

- Affirmed
“The Company is in a net current liabilities and net liabilities position at year-end and the Company's cash is subject to a cash pooling agreement, whereby it is held in a group treasury account, therefore the Company is reliant on the ultimate parent company for ensuring that it has access to sufficient funds to ensure it can continue as a going concern for the going concern period ending 30 November 2026.”
Significant events
- “In 2023 steps continued to complete the winding up of the pension scheme. In 2024 a settlement was received relating to the dispute of winding up the Company's final salary pension scheme.”
Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers
