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.

Going concern

Affirmed

“After making these enquiries the Directors have a reasonable expectation that the Company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future being at least twelve months from the approval of these financial statements. For this reason they adopt the going concern basis in preparing these financial statements.”

Significant events

• “The financial year began with a slower-than-expected start; however, performance accelerated significantly in Q2, primarily driven by market anticipation of an increase in Capital Gains Tax in the October budget, which resulted in some landowners selling their land earlier than they might have originally intended. Gladman completed seven land sales in October alone, immediately ahead of the budget announcement.”
• “The October sales surge, combined with catch-up from a weaker FY24, enabled Gladman to exceed its annual budget.”
• “The introduction of the new National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) has marked a generational shift in the opportunities for achieving planning consent.”
• “The challenge of nutrient neutrality remains a constraint on development, with issues such as water scarcity and sewage capacity becoming more prominent. These constraints are expected to ease as we approach 2030.”
