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

Margins divide P&L lines by turnover. Gearing is liabilities over total assets. Current ratio is current assets over creditors falling due within one year. Interest cover is operating profit over absolute finance costs. Sector-distribution context coming next.

Going concern

Affirmed

“The directors have concluded that the financial statements should be prepared on a going concern basis. The directors have assessed this basis with reference to external factors and deemed it to be reasonable. In particular, as detailed in notes 8, 10 and 15 the financial statements include a significant provision in relation to redress that is payable by the company. The directors do not expect redress of this magnitude to re-occur in future years and excluding the redress the underlying operations of the company are positive and the company is profitable. In addition, the directors have and are continuing to take steps to ensure that the company and the group of which it is part will have sufficient continuing liquid resources to enable it to settle its liabilities, including the redress payments, as and when they fall due. The directors also continue to closely monitor compliance with the FCA capital adequacy rules on an individual entity and group level. They consider that, when taking into account expected 2026 profitability, they will be able to demonstrate compliance with all requirements going forward.”

Significant events

• “In March 2024 the Group had voluntarily agreed with the FCA to abstain from accepting new business, whilst it consolidates recent acquisitions and embeds essential business oversight functions with our new client management framework designed to enhance client service. The Requirement Notice is available on the FCA Register.”
• “The FCA also required that a Skilled Persons Review was commissioned and the resulting report identified areas where the payment of redress to clients may be appropriate. The total group provision representing the estimated amount of redress payable at 31 March 2025 amounts to £13,106,203, including interest but net of recoverable VAT. Of this sum £816,566 is attributable to this company and has been incorporated within these financial statements.”
