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
Ratios
Computed from the line items above — sparklines read oldest → newest
| Ratio | Trend | 2022-12-31 | 2023-12-31 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Return on capital employed | 100.7% | 21.6% | |
| Current ratio | 0.10x | 0.21x | |
| Interest cover | -171.44x | -103.62x |
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.

- Disclaimer of opinion
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis as Perceptive Group Inc, the Company's intermediate parent, has confirmed to the directors that it will provide support, if required to enable the Company to continue in operation for the foreseeable future, being not less than twelve months from the date of approval of these financial statements. Clinphone Development Limited will draw on funds available as required. Accordingly, the directors have determined that it is appropriate to prepare these financial statements on a going concern basis.”
Significant events
- “On 3 June 2024, the Group divested its 'Enterprise Technologies' business in an asset sale to Ennov SAS for a total consideration of $13.2m. The sale included all customer contracts, assets and employees associated with 'Enterprise Technologies'. The decision to sell the product line was part of the Group strategic plan to focus on its core business operations in Imaging and eClinical. The Company made a profit on sale of approximately £4.1m.”
