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

- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“Notwithstanding the net current liabilities of £36,826,134 at the balance sheet date, the financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis which assumes the continuing intragroup trading support of the Cooper Parry entities. These entities will defer, if necessary, their intercompany debtor. balance in favour of other creditors in order to maintain the Company as a going concern. On that basis, the directors have prepared these financial statements on a going concern basis.”
Significant events
- “On 31 July 2025, the group acquired the trade and assets and Cavanagh Kelly's audit business.”
