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

- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis which the directors believe to be appropriate. During 2024/25 the company continued to be profitable with a reported operating profit of £578k for the year, EBITDA of £703k and there are net assets of £4.697 million. The directors and senior management team are confident that company will continue to be profitable in future periods.”
Significant events
- “The financial year was a "game of two halves" with subdued trading in the run up to the general election and around the autumn budget being followed by a strong second half.”
- “During the year the business continued to see increased costs in several significant areas; increases in labour costs resulting from the increase in national living wage / employer's NIC increase and our decision to maintain & hourly rate differentials within the business and also increases in haulage and distribution costs as a result of increases in UK labour costs in the transport sector.”
Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers
