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
“Management have prepared the financial statements on a going concern basis. The information management used to make that assessment was the preparation of forecasts to at least 12 months ahead of the date of the financial statement approval and a review of banking facilities. These showed that the group will remain cash generative for the foreseeable future and has sufficient funding facilities available. 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
- “The principal challenge for 2024 was to manage the uncertain market conditions of the wider UK economy. Our markets have been impacted in line with the wider economic challenges, however the Board is delighted with the robust response of our colleagues, contractors, clients and strategic partners which means that the fundamentals within the business remained strong throughout the year.”
- “During the year, CD Associates (UK) Limited, Eldon Bureau Limited and Pegasus Drafting Limited were dissolved. The directors have applied to strike off Intec (U.K.) Limited.”
