Year-on-year

FY2024 → FY2025 · period ending 2025-09-30 vs 2024-09-30

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

Ratios

Computed from the line items above — sparklines read oldest → newest

Operating margin 9.0%-3.7%
Net margin 7.6%-1.9%
Return on capital employed 20.4%-3.1%
Current ratio 2.05x1.52x

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. Sector-distribution context coming next.

Going concern
Affirmed

“With net assets of £7,999,916 on 30 September 2025, the financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which the Directors consider to be appropriate for the following reasons. The Directors have undertaken a comprehensive review of the Company's financial position and cash flow forecasts, extending beyond 12 months from the date of approval of these financial statements. These forecasts incorporate assumptions about reasonably possible downside scenarios, including potential fluctuations in processing income and their corresponding impact on cash flow. Through this analysis, the Directors have concluded that the Company will have sufficient financial resources to meet its operational needs and liabilities as they fall due over the going concern period.”
