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
Ratios
Computed from the line items above — sparklines read oldest → newest
| Ratio | Trend | 2021-10-01 | 2022-09-30 | 2022-10-01 | 2023-09-30 | 2024-09-30 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Return on capital employed | — | — | — | -35.2% | 278.9% | |
| Current ratio | — | — | — | 15.04x | 1.57x | |
| Interest cover | — | — | — | -1.80x | — |
Gearing is liabilities over total assets. Current ratio is current assets over creditors falling due within one year. Interest cover is operating profit over absolute finance costs. Margin ratios are hidden where reported turnover is too small relative to profit to yield a meaningful figure — typical of holding companies whose income is mostly subsidiary dividends rather than trading revenue. Sector-distribution context coming next.

Significant events

- “The year continued to be a transitional period. During the year management have undertaken a review of the restaurants, which has resulted in the decision to close certain restaurants and impair the value of other restaurants.”
- “To manage liquidity risk, the group has recently extended its banking facilities to the end of September 2027 as explained below under post balance sheet events.”
- “The company is part of the D&D Group of restaurants. In April 2025 the Group relaunched under a new brand and identity, The Evolv Collection, poised for future growth.”
