Year-on-year

FY2024 → FY2025 · period ending 2025-04-30 vs 2024-04-30

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

Affirmed

“The directors have a reasonable expectation that the Company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence based on the following assessments, considering the principal risks and uncertainties detailed above; Management completed a forecast to April 2029, taking into consideration the stable performance during this financial year. The budget for next financial year shows continued strong liquidity and a return to revenue growth. Detailed weekly cashflow forecasts, forward looking 12 months which incorporate the assumptions from budget and reforecasts are maintained and reviewed on a weekly basis. The Company showed a net asset position at year end of £5.1m (2024: £13.8m) driven by continued good profitability, liquidity remains strong. Thus, the directors continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.”
