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.

Audit opinion

Unqualified (clean)

Going concern

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. Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the group's and parent company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.”

Significant events

• “The main planned capital expenditure, detailed within Ladybird Inns strategic report relates to a planning application to the local council in Bromsgrove to improve/expand the garden area of The Ladybird Inn. This will increase seating area and should increase revenue, especially in the summer months.”
• “During the year, the group has agreed to pay a significant contribution from one of its subsidiaries towards the refurbishment of one of the properties owned by the business, in order for it to then be leased on a long term lease as a hotel. The full amount payable by the business of £450,000 has been invoiced and recognised in the current year, and this is not expected to be a recurring cost.”
