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

“In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. 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

• “This year we took the decision to appoint 3 employees to the board, this was partly in recognition of their continuous commitment, the contribution they have made to the overall company, plus to facilitate business performance and growth over the coming years.”
• “We are pleased to share that we intend to start making the capital investments into our manufacturing site from next year, qtr. 2 2026.”
• “Headcount increases are still committed to and essential to support the current and future needs of the business.”
• “During the year equipment and installation sales were just under 3% higher than the previous year.”
• “For the year to 28 February 2025 the EBITDA margin improved year on year was noted at increasing by 0.6%.”
