Year-on-year

FY2024 → FY2025 · period ending 2025-07-31 vs 2024-07-31

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

Unqualified (clean)
Going concern
Affirmed

“In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the director's 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 ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue. At 31st July 2025, the group had substantial net assets of 97,935,900 including cash at bank of 35,940,635. The company, and the group of which it is a member, meets its day to day working capital requirements through a combination of existing resources, normal trading terms and bank facilities. Ongoing regulatory compliance is critical to the company and operational procedures and controls are closely monitored to ensure the company remains compliant in this regard. The group's latest unaudited management accounts show continued profitability and the directors believe that the group is well placed to manage its business risks successfully. After making enquiries the directors have a reasonable expectation that the group has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Accordingly, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the annual report and accounts.”
