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

“Management have prepared forecasts to the end of 2026, showing the company expects to continue profitable trading. Cash balances are expected to increase. The company has a €1m credit line with Deutsche Bank and benefits from group financial/operational support, affirming going concern basis.”
Significant events
- “2024 saw an increase in sales, largely attributable to growth in the Defence and Aerospace sector and also our US Industrial markets. Whilst a welcome stabilisation of the European Industrial markets occurred, no real growth was witnessed.”
- “The Composites business unit performed strongly although not to expectation as delays in awarded contracts were experienced due to design changes that led to redevelopment of the parts. Production volumes are expected to be realised during 2025.”
- “The US market continues to develop positively, following an acquisition in the Americas region by the group in the latter part of 2024 this area of the world remains a significant focus and opportunity for Krempel Industries.”
Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers
