Ratios
Computed from the line items above — sparklines read oldest → newest
| Ratio | Trend | 2020-05-31 | 2021-05-31 | 2022-06-30 | 2023-06-30 | 2024-06-30 | 2025-06-30 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Operating margin | — | 86.8% | 125.6% | — | — | 90.8% | |
| Net margin | — | 67.0% | 104.0% | — | — | 68.4% | |

| Gearing (liabilities / total assets) | — | — | — | — | 114.3% | 110.5% | |
| Current ratio | — | — | — | — | 0.01x | 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.

- Affirmed
“The net liabilities of £1,966,201 shown in the Statement of financial position includes £20,083,750 payable to this company's parent company. The parent company has indicated that it will not demand more than this company can pay, and anticipated cash flows are sufficient to meet the company's other liabilities as they fall due. In the year, the Company has made a profit of £630,922 (2024: Loss of £644,815), due to new tenancy agreements that are now generating sufficient revenues. In this period of transition the directors confirm that the parent company will continue to support the company for a period of at least 12 months from the approval of these financial statements. The directors are therefore not aware of any events or conditions which may cast significant doubt upon the company's ability to continue as a going concern.”
Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers
