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: Lawfords Consulting Limited
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

“The year 2024 concluded with a loss, primarily due to two underperforming projects. The company is attempting to recover these costs through submissions of extra costs to contractors, expected in 2024.”
“A managerial restructuring is underway to introduce key figures that can increase market presence and ensure short-term growth.”

Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers
