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

- Affirmed
“The accounts have been prepared on a going concern basis following group profits before tax in the year of £1,774,668 and net current assets of £925,078 at 31 July 2025. The group has net assets at the year end of £5,213,331. Preparation of the accounts on a going concern basis assumes that the group and company will have sufficient funds to continue to pay its debts as and when they fall due and thus continue to trade. The director has a reasonable expectation that the group has adequate resources to continue in operation existence for the foreseeable further based on its forecasts and projections. In making their assessment, the director has reviewed and considered the timing of when key debts fall due and the impact these have upon expected cashflows. This has been modelled for a period of 12 months from the date of signing these financial statements. Having due consideration to each of the above factors, the director has a reasonable expectation that the group has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future and so the accounts are prepared on a going concern basis.”
