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

“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 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 period under review, the food and agricultural sectors have faced a number of challenges including continued economic pressures and increasingly inconsistent UK harvests that make sourcing suitable UK wheat increasingly difficult.”
• “At the same time, market conditions around the world have eased and seen both global and UK grain prices decrease in the year.”
• “The combination of reduced volume and lower prices resulted in a decrease in sales, cost of sales, gross profit and retained profit.”
• “The company is exposed to the fluctuation in global grain prices and the ability to source milling wheat of consistently high quality.”
