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

“During the year the company made a profit before tax of £5.8m, which is an increase of £0.8m on the prior year profit before tax. Reserves have continued to increase to a significant £40.3m, an increase of £4.3m from the prior year. The company also holds cash reserves at year end of £3.4m and other financial assets valued at £21.3m. Whilst the overall performance for 2024/25 was good at the beginning of the year due to the 5G roll out, work slowed down towards the end of the year but will soon pick up with new contracts with Telefonica being undertaken in 2025/26. The director therefore believes it is reasonable that the financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis.”
Significant events
- “The telecommunications market remains in a transitional phase, however, this year the sector has experienced a significant change, with the proposed merger of 2 key players which was due to complete mid-2025.”
- “Alongside these changes there are still some supply chain issues caused by the change of vendors following the Government legislation in 2023.”
- “The forecast for the next 3-5 years has been positively impacted by what will now be an extended peak in activities, linked to the later than anticipated 5G roll-out and the delays in instructing works caused by the merger discussions outlined above.”
- “new contracts with Telefonica being undertaken in 2025/26.”
