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

Significant events
- “The business also undertook an IT infrastructure change in FY25 that was completed in FY26.”
- “The refinancing exercise conducted during FY24 delivered a reduction in cost of finance.”
- “The preferential terms of the Novuna facility compared to the prior provider Close Brothers has increased availability to funds and therefore reduced the business' exposure to liquidity risk.”
- “The overheads of the business will continue to reduce as a full year of cost savings from the exit of the London and Birmingham offices and the IT infrastructure overhaul are accounted for.”
