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 therefore concluded that the company can continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the annual report and accounts. The company has net current liabilities of £79,954 thousand (2024: £81,753 thousand) at the year end. However, this is largely driven by an intercompany balance owed of £80,862 thousand. This balance won't be recalled to the detriment of other creditors.”
Significant events
- “On 14 November 2024, a legal fixed and floating charge was registered to Lloyds Bank over the leasehold property at Soho Hotel and other group properties as a cross charge with Firmdale West End Limited and Firmdale Property Investments Limited.”
