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 | 2023-12-31 | 2024-12-31 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Operating margin | 84.1% | 56.1% | |
| Return on capital employed | -1.5% | -1.7% | |
| Current ratio | -0.52x | -0.55x |
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. 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.

“Data retention services associated with legacy investment processing business are contracted with an initial term until 2026. The directors of the Company have no intention to cease operations or liquidate the Company, and the Company is currently pursuing other business opportunities that the directors expect will result in new sources of revenues. Recent opportunities have identified there is a demand to provide the SEI Wealth Platform service to UK offshore entities or as an unregulated service. At 31 December 2024, the Company had net liabilities of £12,419,000 (2023: £13,324,000). The Company's ultimate parent has confirmed its intention to provide financial support for at least another 12 months from the date of approval of these financial statements. Accordingly, the financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. ... The directors have prepared the financial statements on the going concern basis as they do not intend to liquidate the Company or to cease its operations, and as they have concluded that the Company's financial position means that this is realistic. They have also concluded that there are no material uncertainties that could have cast significant doubt over its ability to continue as a going concern for at least a year from the date of approval of the financial statements ("the going concern period").”
