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. Margin ratios are hidden where reported turnover is too small relative to profit to yield a meaningful figure — typical of holding companies whose income is mostly subsidiary dividends rather than trading revenue. Sector-distribution context coming next.

- Going concern

“The Trustees have evaluated the circumstances in which the Trust operates and have concluded that there are no material uncertainties that cast doubt on the charity's ability to continue as a going concern.”
Significant events
- “Veritas Investment Partners were appointed as Fund Managers in June 2016, under powers conferred by article 4 of the Memorandum and Articles of Association. Veritas changed its name to Meridiem Investment Management in March 2024 and then to Navera Investment Management in June 2025 due to an unexpected trademark challenge.”
- “The Charity made unrealised losses of ",810 (2.5%) during the year which, when compounded by the contribution to St Bride's Church and net of managers' fees, represented a decrease in value across the portfolio of 6.5%. This performance was disappointing, particularly in light of the positive outturns in recent years. Navera had written to Trustees explaining the reasons for this under-performance.”
