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.

Significant events

• “On 20 May 2025, the Independent Trustee of the Scheme entered into a buy-in contract with Legal & General ('L&G') to match all future benefit payments to members of the Scheme who had not yet retired at the purchase date. This significantly reduces the risks associated with the provision of a defined benefit pension to those members and their spouses over time.”
• “On 1 January 2025 the trade and assets of subsidiary, Bella Di Notte Ltd, were hived up into WCF Ltd, resulting in the transfer of goodwill out of the cost of the investment.”
