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
“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 company'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
- “The company continues to develop new products and entry into new market sectors for its I.T. solutions. This has been achieved by both organic growth and development of alliances with our supply chain where we can add value. Market conditions remain challenging with the future of public sector investment in new I.T. products becoming uncertain, along with increasing costs of materials which has at times impacted our profits margins.”
Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers
