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
“The Directors' have assessed the Board-approved forecasts and projections which indicate that the Company will continue to have sufficient cash reserves and adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future, being at least 12 months from the approval of these financial statements. Consequently, the directors are confident that the Company will have sufficient funds to continue to meet its liabilities as they fall due and therefore have prepared the financial statements on a going concern basis.”
Significant events
- “On 9 December 2024, the Company entered into an agreement to acquire RNWL Ltd for initial cash consideration of £3m, with potential variable deferred consideration. FCA approval was received on 24 January 2025, with closing expected in HY1 FY25.”
