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

- Going concern
- Affirmed
“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 financial statements are authorised for issue.”
Significant events
- “On 18th July, the Company was acquired by Mecsia Limited, a successful national Facilities Maintenance company. This has immediately bolstered Ashley & McDonough's ability to deliver new geographies and widened the range of services on offer. Additionally, several new large contracts have been secured which will further accelerate the growth of the Company.”
