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

“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

• “Turnover for the year was £14.7mil and was consistent with the prior year of £14.84mil, margins continue to hold. The Company has been heavily overstocked in recent years but in 2023 progress had been made to reduce the stock levels with an overall reduction of 28.72% and a further reduction in 2024 of 16%, to bring the total down to £1.74mil. Inflation has created further challenges particularly in relation labour rates. Despite a reduction in headcount labour costs have increased year on year. The recent charges in the rate of employers national insurance will further add to this pressure in 2025. The Company has continued to invest in new technology and process improvements which will make us more efficient going forward.”
