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 opinion

Unqualified (clean)

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 group's and parent 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

• “During the year under review we continued to experience the challenging trading conditions caused by the effects of the Ukrainian conflict, Brexit, labour and material supply issues and increasing interest and energy costs.”
• “Despite these factors we are pleased to report a 11.84% increase in turnover to £65.2m.”
• “Our gross margin has increased to 15.74% due to material price and supply fluctuations. However due to increases in the groups overheads, the operation profit has dropped from £347k down to £155k. The main increase in overheads is due to wages costs in the business.”
• “Since the year end trading conditions have remained challenging due to the factors set out above but despite these conditions we have seen a substantial increase in turnover with similar margins although this has been offset by a substantial increase in overhead expenditure.”
