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
“At the time of approving the financial statements, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus the directors continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.”
Significant events
- “During the year to 30 April 2025, the company underwent another year of investment.”
- “At 30 April 2025 turnover was down on the 2024 figures by 6% due to a reduction in the Hosting revenue elements from previous years. This resulted in a lower gross profit margin which has been compounded by increased costs over the last few years for power, inflation and other general increases to cover cost of living pricing. That being said, the margin rate is still a healthy one at 23%.”
- “The net loss due to exceptional items within the year has been used to carry back and reclaim corporation tax paid in 2024 resulting in the tax debtor of £1.16m when coupled with the Research and Development Relief confirmed as allowable post year end and repaid in August 2025.”
Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers
