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

Significant events
- “Strong demand continued in 2024, with Hotel Revenues increasing by €8M (12.2%) over 2023, Hotel departmental profit improving by €4.7M compared to 2023. and Hotel Net Operating Profit after rent, but before COVID subsidies, increasing by €2.9M over 2023.”
- “The hotel industry saw a continued strong demand in 2024. However, rising operational costs, and inflation as well as staffing shortages and increase in payroll costs are the biggest risks impacting our cashflows and performance.”
- “For 2025, the Group is forecasting an increase in Revenues of €4.7M; however, Hotel Net Operating Profit after rent is expected to decrease by €960K compared to 2024. This reduction is primarily due to the exceptional impact of the Paris Olympics in 2024...”
- “Staffing challenges remain a significant issue for the hospitality industry in 2024 and are expected to persist into 2025. While demand for hotel services has recovered strongly post-pandemic, many employees who were furloughed or laid off during the pandemic have permanently transitioned to other industries or exited the workforce.”
