Material uncertainty over going concern
The the Group had net liabilities of £15,746,338 at 31 October 2024. Mr D Lilley, a director and controlling party, has provided written assurances that he has no intention to recall the amounts owed to him for at least on year from the date of approval of the accounts. However, he may provide additional support where it is required, he cannot provide absolute assurance that additional funds will continue to be provided, which may be necessary to the company and group. Subject to the amounts owed to the director not being recalled and sufficient cash being retained within the group to meet its third party liabilities, the directors consider the group to be a going concern. These matters represent a material uncertainty on the group and company's ability to continue as a going concern.

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. 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.
