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

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. Sector-distribution context coming next.

Audit opinion

Unqualified (clean)

Going concern

Affirmed

“In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the group's and parent company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.”

Significant events

• “2025 proved to be an incredibly challenging year, with the loss of 2 of the injection moulding division's largest customers, a downturn in demand by all sectors that the group supplies, with the exception of aerospace plastics, and many large projects either cancelled or delayed due to geopolitics.”
• “Losses were further impacted by the downward revaluation of the investment properties by £174k.”
• “Cashflow has been a major struggle in the year but with cash injections by the directors, new funding secured on directors personal assets, the assistance of extended payment terms by some suppliers and time to pay agreement with HMRC the business has been able to carefully manage its cashflow obligations until the completion of the sale of the investment properties post year end.”
• “During 2026 the group's investment properties have been sold and the short-term debt taken to fund the move in 2022 has been repaid.”
