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

Audit & accounting basis

Accounting basis: FRS 102
Reporting scope: Standalone (parent only)
Auditor: Barnes Roffe Audit Limited
Audit opinion: Unqualified (clean)
Going concern: Affirmed
“The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis based on forecasts prepared by the directors. In preparing those forecasts, the directors have taken into account the impact that the current economic climate may have on the business and the strategy adopted to mitigate the risks associated with this. The directors therefore have a reasonable expectation that the Company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future.”

Significant events

“Post year end, as part of the refinancing, loans included in creditors at the year end of £1,183,160 were written off by the current provider, resulting in an increase in net assets. The bank overdraft and the invoice discounting facility were refinanced.”

Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers
