Year-on-year

FY2023 → FY2024 · period ending 2024-12-31 vs 2023-12-31

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

Audit opinion
Unqualified (clean)
Going concern
Affirmed

“The Company has made a profit for the period and has net assets at 31 December 2024 of £4,603,478. The Directors are required to consider the going concern status of the business and accordingly, have prepared financial forecasts for a period of at least 12 months from the date of approval of these financial statements, taking into account anticipated economic and trading conditions. The forecasts and the sensitised scenarios indicate that, for the future, the business is expected to generate positive cash flows after inventory expenditure and capital expenditure, and to be able to meet its liabilities as they fall due. The directors are satisfied that the company has sufficient resources to remain as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from the date of approval of the financial statements.”
