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

Margins divide P&L lines by turnover. Gearing is liabilities over total assets. Current ratio is current assets over creditors falling due within one year. Interest cover is operating profit over absolute finance costs. Sector-distribution context coming next.

Going concern

Affirmed

“The company's forecasts and projections for the next twelve months show that the company is able to continue in operational existence for that period and beyond, taking into account reasonable possible changes in trading performance. This also considers the effectiveness of available measures to assist in mitigating the impact. The forecasts prepared support the ability of the company to remain a going concern and to be able to trade and meet its debts as they fall due. Based on the factors set out above the directors believe that there is no material uncertainty in relation to going concern and that the company has adequate financial resources to continue in operational existence for at least 12 months from the date of signing the financial statements and therefore, the directors believe it remains appropriate to prepare the financial statements on a going concern.”

Significant events

• “The uncertainty of the economy, remains, has not been helped by the government change during the year, and has contributed greatly to a lack of client confidence to proceed with projects.”
• “Large orders that were placed had long delivery dates and unfortunately did not contribute to our 2024 performance but will benefit the companies order book going forward into 2025.”
