Year-on-year

FY2024 → FY2025 · period ending 2025-03-31 vs 2024-03-31

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

Audit opinion
Unqualified (clean)
Going concern
Affirmed

“Having reviewed the group and company's financial forecasts and expected future cash flows, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the group and company have adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. The UK group continues to hold good cash reserves to shelter against any further economic uncertainty and to continue operationally. Thus, the going concern basis has been adopted in preparing the financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2025.”
