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.

Going concern

Affirmed

“The directors have no reason to believe that a material uncertainty exists that may cast doubt on the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern. Based on these forecasts and the underlying assumptions... the directors believe that the Company will have sufficient funding to continue in operational existence...they consider that it is appropriate to prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis.”

Significant events

• “Management made a decision to stop provision of dispensing services in Ireland in 2023 but continues to support trading providing other services.”
• “In December 2023, the Tribunal ruled in favour of HMRC, management has decided not to appeal the result and settled the liability in Q1 2024. During 2023, the company calculated interest to be paid to HMRC, with total interest at end of 2024 being £2,291,000.”
