Values shown as filed in the company's annual accounts. indicates the figure wasn't present under that line item in that period. About these numbers

Year-on-year

FY2023 → FY2024 · period ending 2024-08-31 vs 2023-08-31

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

Going concern
Material uncertainty disclosed

“Whilst the facilities noted above are expected to be in place imminently, they are not confirmed at the date of this report and notice has been provided on the current banking facilities, which may result in demand for repayment within the period of the going concern assessment. In addition, operating within the available banking facilities is dependent on the ongoing supplier, shareholder and director funding and trading assumptions as noted above. These events and conditions are not known with sufficient certainty at the date of approval of the financial statements and as such a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.”
