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.

Significant events

• “On Wednesday 3 December 2025, the Trustee of the Aviagen Limited Pension & Life Assurance Scheme ("the Scheme") purchased a bulk annuity buy-in insurance policy with Just plc. The policy was purchased using around 90% of the Scheme's assets. The previous assets were sold to fund the purchase of the policy. The income from the policy is designed to exactly match the pension and other benefit payments which beneficiaries are entitled to from the Scheme, and significantly reduces the Company's exposure to the scheme funding risk.”
• “Following a further acquisition of shares on 29th December 2025, the shareholding interest in Ross Ankara Ana Damizlik Tavukculuk Sanayi Ve Ticaret increased to 100%.”
