Ratios
Computed from the line items above — sparklines read oldest → newest
| Ratio | Trend | 2025-03-31 | 2025-12-31 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Operating margin | — | 59.7% | |
| Net margin | 196.6% | 36.7% | |
| Return on capital employed | 23.3% | 5.4% | |
| Gearing (liabilities / total assets) | 44.0% | 48.5% | |
| Current ratio | 0.02x | 0.02x | |
| Interest cover | 9.88x | 2.59x |
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. Margin ratios are hidden where reported turnover is too small relative to profit to yield a meaningful figure — typical of holding companies whose income is mostly subsidiary dividends rather than trading revenue. Sector-distribution context coming next.

“The Directors have assessed the going concern position, focusing specifically on operations and cash flows of the Group and have a reasonable expectation the Company, together with the support of its ultimate parent, has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for a period of at least 12 months from the date of signing the financial statements. Accordingly they continue to adopt the going concern basis on preparing the financial statements.”
Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers
