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

- 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
- “On the 8 April 2024, DESL and the ultimate parent Duality Group Limited, sold 100% of its ordinary share capital to Cap10 4NetZero Bidco Limited. The ultimate parent company is Cap10 Partners Holdco Limited. The ultimate controlling party is Fabrice Nottin. The Company is now part of the Sureserve Group which the directors believe strengthens DESL's position in the insulation, heating and renewable energy sector, bringing wider opportunities in the energy transition and renewables sector as well providing substantial financial backing, in support of DESL's future growth aspirations.”
