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.

Audit opinion

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

• “The directors are pleased to report another year of record turnover for the year ended 31 May 2024. However the year has seen increases in the costs of good sold which has seen a reduction in the gross profit and overall net profits achieved by the company.”
• “The marked increase in demand experienced following the 2020/21 global pandemic has started to wane following a return to more normal times and travel routes have reopened. This has led to a more competitive market with the sector for selling motorhomes and consequently the company has experienced a return to margins seen before the pandemic.”
