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
- “Sales for the year ended 31 December 2024 were £13,643K, exceeding the target of £12,000K by 13.7%. This strong performance was driven by increased project activity in the biotech, animal health, and hydrogen sectors.”
- “A significant highlight was securing one of the UK's major hydrogen projects for 2024, with a projected revenue of £1.5m. In response, ESI invested further in clean and renewable energy, expanding the sales team to focus on this sector.”
- “The Gaza conflict remained a concern throughout 2024 and is expected to continue impacting sentiment until a resolution is reached. Nevertheless, our collaboration with a key supplier based in the region has remained strong. Thanks to robust business continuity planning, we achieved satisfactory outcomes, with deliveries consistently made on time.”
- “The UK economy remained under pressure throughout 2024, with persistent high interest rates (BOE at 5.25%) and inflation gradually declining but still above target. GDP growth was marginal, with signs of stagnation in late 2023 and early 2024.”
