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

- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The directors have prepared the financial statements on a going concern basis on the grounds that the company expects to meet its liabilities as they fall due. The directors have reached this conclusion after undertaking a detailed review of the company's trading and cash flow forecasts and the financial facilities available to the company.”
Significant events
- “In financial year 2025, turnover increased by 7% to £90.5m. Tor benefited from a strong professional trade market. There was also a resilience in the DIY market which aided the company.”
- “Our operating profit increase by 36.0% to £9.1m. The above factors drove a strong operating performance.”
- “As a business we are adapting to those challenges by offering a drop ship logistic services to our DIY and merchant customers. This model was launched in financial year 2022 and has so far proved to be a key growth driver in our business.”
- “During the year the board has been dedicated to fostering positive relationships with its employees and ensuring that their concerns and aspirations were considered. A key aspect of this engagement process was the discussion and implementation of pay increases for employees in light of the continued cost-of-living crisis throughout the UK.”
- “In addition, during the year, the Company introduced an all-employee town hall meeting as part of its commitment to open communication and engagement with its workforce.”
