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 financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which assumes that the Company will be able to meet its liabilities as they fall due for the foreseeable future. The directors have looked out to November 2026 to make their going concern assessment, being the period over which there is the most visibility. In forming this conclusion, the directors have received confirmation of parental support and that the Company's fellow group undertakings will not seek repayment of their intra-group loans presented as current liabilities until such time as the Company is able to repay these liabilities.”

Significant events

• “During the year ended 31 May 2025, 8 new stores were opened, resulting in 127 operating stores trading at the end of the year. LFL customer volumes largely held v prior year with limited qualitative or quantitative evidence of impact from pricing changes.”
