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 & accounting basis
- Accounting basis
- FRS 102
- Reporting scope
- Standalone (parent only)
- Auditor
- Saffery LLP
- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the directors' 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 financial statements are authorised for issue.”
Significant events
- “2024 saw us participate in the Mental Health World Cup which aims to promote mental health awareness in the construction industry as well as providing a chance for people to meet up in a fun environment and make connections.”
- “Each year Sale Group run what many consider the best Golf Day in the industry. We bring our entire supply chain together to raise vital money for local charity The Children's Trust, who assist children with brain injuries.”
- “Each year we also contribute to Great Ormond Street so that children in hospital over Christmas can have as much joy as possible.”
- “In 2024 we supported a community-based project in Bolivia to offset our carbon usage.”
- “The true importance of this approach to risk management was evident this year with the demise of ISG. Whilst the failure of ISG was unfortunate, it had minimal impact upon our results.”
- “During the prior year a group restructure took place resulting in the hive up of £2,036,362 due from a connected party to Sale Group Limited, the parent company, by way of a dividend in specie.”
