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

- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The directors have a reasonable expectation that the Company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the going concern period, which is at least 12 months from the date of approval of these financial statements. The Directors have considered the Company's cash flow and liquidity, and the key areas of risk and uncertainty when making their assessment.”
Significant events
- “In April 2023 London City Airport obtained planning permission to retain the temporary facilities delivered as part of the CADP development (immigration, goods-in and baggage handling facilities) for up to a further 10 years.”
- “In light of this, and the slower rate of passenger recovery, the business brought the majority of the remaining CADP assets under construction balance into use in 2023.”
- “During 2024, total fixed asset additions were £3.8m (2023: £3.7m).”
- “As part of the Group refinance process completed in September 2025, the historic swap was amended and reinstated to align the counterparties with the Group's new lenders, to extend the mandatory break to 2032, and to reprice the derivative in light of current market conditions.”
- “In August 2024 the airport achieved planning permission from the Secretaries of State to both increase the annual passenger cap from 6.5m to 9m passenger and allow 3 extra flights during the first 30 mins of operation.”
