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

“In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the director's 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 company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the original financial statements were authorised for issue.”

Significant events

• “Our like-for-like sales turnover increased to £79.6m 2024/25 against £77.2m 2023/24 a increase of 3% on the previous year. Income is up, gross profit margin has increased from 10.75% to 11.27%. Our EBITDA increased to £4.411m. This reflects a increase of 37% on the previous year. Profit before tax margin has increased slightly from 5.45% to 5.73%.”
• “Potential reduction of available labour due to Brexit will be alleviated by a long-term recruitment, apprenticeship and training programme, currently 15% of our workforce is made up of Apprentices and trainees (we are part of the 5% club).”
