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.

Audit opinion

Unqualified (clean)

Going concern

Affirmed

“The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes that the company will continue to trade. The validity of this assumption is dependent on the continued support of the trading subsidiary undertakings, as the company has net current liabilities as at 30 September 2025. On the basis of the support provided by the trading subsidiary undertakings, the cash position of the company as at the date of approval of the financial statements, and the forecasted cashflows and financial performance for the group, the directors believe that the company will have sufficient cash reserves and available facilities in order to meet its debts as and when they fall due in the foreseeable future”
