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 | 2019-06-30 | 2020-06-30 | 2021-06-30 | 2022-06-30 | 2023-06-30 | 2023-07-01 | 2024-06-30 | 2025-06-30 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Operating margin | — | — | — | — | — | — | 37.2% | -12.2% | |
| Return on capital employed | — | — | — | — | — | — | 0.7% | -0.2% | |
| Current ratio | — | — | — | — | — | — | 3.13x | 26.49x | |
| Interest cover | — | — | — | — | — | — | 0.10x | -0.03x |
Margins divide P&L lines by turnover. 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.

“The company made a loss for the year and at the reporting date has net liabilities. The directors have obtained assurance from its parent company that a loan and interest owed to the parent company of £64,853,541 together with further interest due on the balance sheet date will not be due for payment for a period of atleast twelve months from the date the accounts are approved. The parent company has also confirmed that funds will be made available to the company so that it will be able to meet its financial obligations as and when they fall due for at least twelve months from the date the accounts are approved. Therefore the accounts have been prepared under the going concern basis.”
