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
“The financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis, as the directors consider, based on approved cash flow forecasts, that there is reasonable certainty that the group will be able to meet its liabilities as they fall due for a period of at least 12 months from the date of approval of these financial statements. The directors consider that the key uncertainties associated with the levels of inflation seen in the prior year have diminished, and are pleased to report that the group's financial performance remains was strong. Therefore, given the group's available cash reserves and available facilities, the directors are confident that the group will have the financial capacity to meet its ongoing obligations during the next 12 months.”
Significant events
- “2024/25 also saw our first M&A activity as we completed the exciting acquisition of The Collective yogurt business.”
