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

Audit & accounting basis

- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.”
Significant events
- “The business has successfully retained and grown work with 90% long term (+6years) and 10% new clients acquired during 2024. Projects have included: execution of a new Internal Comms strategy for a global premium drinks brand; an entire event portfolio for a leading Al technology brand including a significant international convention; Leadership and Partner conferences for a leading healthcare brand; as well as global incentives including delivery of the Presidents Recognition Club for a Global Software house.”
Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers
