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

Audit opinion

Going concern

Affirmed

“In preparing the financial statements the Directors have had regard to the fact that the Company generated a pre-tax profit on continuing operations of £3,989,678 (2024: £2,004,253) in the financial year ended 31st December 2025. A key judgement is the appropriateness of using the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements. Therefore, the Directors have formed a judgement, at the time of approving the financial statements, that there is a reasonable expectation that the Company has adequate resources to continue in business and meet its liabilities as they fall due for the foreseeable future, with the Directors reviewing the going concern assessment prepared for the period ending 30 June 2027, the going concern period.”

Significant events

• “Subsequent to the reporting date, in January 2026, the company drew down £16.5m of external debt facilities, the proceeds of which were used to issue an intercompany loan to the parent company.”
• “Subsequent to the reporting date of 31 December 2025, geopolitical tensions in the Middle East escalated into an armed conflict involving multiple countries in the region. The situation remains evolving and has resulted in increased political and economic uncertainty in global markets. The Vitacress Group has no business involvement in the Middle East, and the economic and market effects of the war are uncertain and cannot be predicted at this stage. Therefore, management concludes that there are no events after the reporting period that require disclosure in these financial statements.”
