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 director's 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 group's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the original financial statements were authorised for issue.”

Significant events

• “Firstly, the uncertainty and cost associated with post-April 2025 US tariffs and their possible adverse impact on some of the other risks mentioned below. Secondly, although the situation has continued to ameliorate, supply chain delivery and price risks remain to the fore, risks which the company seeks to mitigate as far as possible through close working relationships with its key vendors. Thirdly, the company remains primarily a project-based business and accordingly continues to strive to be the preferred source on more specialist hand controller programs around the world. Fourthly, the Covid-19 (and possible future variants) scenario remains one to monitor closely and its medium-term impact on future defence budgets (perhaps offset by wider geopolitical tensions) in our view may still remain to be seen. Fifthly, some programs continue to be delineated in a currency other than GBP, a risk the company continues to seek to mitigate where possible through its purchasing activities and the use of its US subsidiary for USD based opportunities.”
