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
“After reviewing the Company's financial performance and position and having consideration of the macroeconomic environment and the impact of the conflict in Ukraine detailed above, the Directors have a reasonable expectation that the Company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. The Company therefore continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing its financial statements.”
Significant events
- “Following the receipt of the requisite regulatory approvals on 7 May 2025, Warburg Pincus became a minority shareholder after acquiring minority interest from existing shareholders in Aztec Group.”
- “The shares of the Company for the period under review were subject to a security interest in favour of The Royal Bank of Scotland International Limited under a debenture dated 18 August 2023. The RBSI facility was extinguished on 7 May 2025 by the Group resulting in all liens over the Company's shares being lifted.”
