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

Significant events
- “On 24 October 2024 Innovation On-Site Ltd became a fully owned subsidiary of M J Hillson Group Ltd.”
- “Several large projects during the year were built months ahead of the forecasted time, increasing turnover in the first 6 months. The impact of this was realised in the later months of the year as our clients couldn't hand over buildings and new projects didn't start.”
Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers
