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

- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The Directors have a reasonable expectation that the Company has adequate resources to continue in business for the foreseeable future. Thus, they continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the annual financial statements. The Company meets its day to day working capital requirements by maintaining a positive cash balance. After a period of very strong performance which lead to increased cash reserves, stress tests and risk assessments indicate that the business will generate positive cash forecasts and will be able to operate until 31 July 2026.”
Significant events
- “During the 2024 the shareholders have decided to grant a £20M dividend payment.”
