Year-on-year

FY2024 → FY2025 · period ending 2025-08-10 vs 2024-08-11

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
Unqualified (clean)
Going concern
Affirmed

“The directors are satisfied that they have a reasonable expectation that the company has sufficient resources, together with the ability to access additional group liquidity, to continue in operational existence for a period of at least 12 months from the date of approval of these financial statements, and therefore continue to adopt the going concern in their preparation. In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the Director's use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.”
