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

Significant events
- “In 2024, Exol purchased the site and warehouse adjacent to its All Saints Road premises which provided the business with direct access to the nearby A4038.”
- “The development which continues in 2025 will also allow the business to expand its manufacturing and stockholding capabilities whilst improving the logistical flow of the site.”
- “We also plan to increase our capacity for providing bag in box products in early 2025, ensuring the needs of our existing customer base continue to be met.”
- “With the pigging system now fully operational investment will continue at the site in 2025 with the addition of a new fully automated blender alongside smaller blending vessels increasing our flexibility to deal with the changing profile of more smaller blends.”
- “We will also complete the application of radar sensors to those remaining tanks still reliant on hydrostatics and new pumps will be installed on the largest tanks, reducing blending times through faster transfers.”
- “Exol will receive the prestigious Kings Award for Enterprise for International Trade in May 2025, recognising the company's outstanding growth in overseas markets.”
- “In mid-2025 Exol will commence work on replacing Microsoft GP with Business Central which we expect to be fully rolled out on 2026.”
- “We are also developing a user training program and expect to have both a user security awareness system and a managed NOC in situ by the end of 2025.”
- “In completing this work, we are aiming to achieve the AISME level one certification.”
