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
“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
- “Alfred Hymas Limited has seen continued growth during the year ending 30 April 2025.”
- “The company has continued to update its assets in both the logistical and agricultural sectors of the business. Multiple items of equipment have been delivered during this financial year, this is made up of 6 x 44t HGV units, 4 x tipper trailers, and 1 x agricultural combine.”
- “Farming has seen a steady decline in grain values. Input costs have remained high, not helped by changes to NI and minimum wage levels. Reducing subsidy levels and the lack of government engagement with the agricultural industry.”
- “The beef trade has seen a better year with greater demand for red meat and therefore firmer prices. Our bull stock has been upgraded in line with previous years.”
- “Some of this land will be used for solar farming in the future and we look to replace this with additional arable acreage elsewhere.”
