Year-on-year

FY2024 → FY2025 · period ending 2025-03-31 vs 2024-03-31

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

“The company is in a net current liability position of £189,083 at the balance sheet date. The directors have successfully taken numerous steps to address the challenging trade environment they operate within including at the time of signing these accounts securing new business for 2026. Finance facilities have been agreed to February 2027. The Directors have continued a successful reduction of fixed overheads which has seen the company return to positive EBITDA. The company has continued its focus on profitability with scaled back unprofitable lines exiting high cost territories. Further analysis of the company's business strategy can be found in the strategic report of these accounts which the directors are confident will safeguard the future of the business. At the balance sheet date, the company was owed £228,887 by connected companies which the ultimate parent has confirmed in writing it will guarantee as these companies are currently in a net current liability position. Therefore, on the basis of a positive trading outlook for 2026/27, forecast headroom in the third party finance facilities not due for renewal until February 2027 and the continued written support from the ultimate owners and related parties the directors are confident in the future of the company being a going concern for at least 12 months from the date these financial statements are signed.”
