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

- 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.”
Significant events
- “On the 2nd February 2024, a restructuring of the shareholding of the group was completed through a new Holding Company, InTune24 Limited, which acquired 100% of the share capital of Siam 25 Limited.”
- “The year has been challenging for the business in a number of areas but overall the board have been very satisfied with the financial performance.”
- “The management team has also been restructured in advance of year end retirements and therefore there has been some doubling of management cost during the year.”
- “The business has also carried out a full change over in the operating systems within the business with a goal of improving efficiency and being able to report performance on a departmental level.”
Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers
