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 opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the director's 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 original financial statements are authorised for issue.”
Significant events
- “2024/25 continued to be as challenging as 23/24. The drop in activity experienced in 23/24 continued throughout 24/25. As a result, turnover fell a further 27% and the Company suffered an operating loss of £773k (2024: Loss £245K). These markets have recently shown tentative signs of improvement and the Company is positioned to take advantage of this uptick in activity.”
Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers
