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
“In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the Directors' 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.”
Significant events
- “Revenue dropped by 24% to £12.8m with modest declines across most events, particularly Future Food-Tech and World Agri-Tech, reflecting a challenging market with geo-political tensions and high inflation.”
- “EBITDA (excluding exceptional costs in the year to March 2024) declined by 39% to £4.3m due to the lower revenues and continued cost pressures in an inflationary climate.”
- “Net cash dropped to £1.8m after a dividend payment to the parent company of £18m.”
- “The business will remain responsive to the needs of its customers and market changes. We are expecting renewed growth from the Agri-Tech and Future Food Tech events. The business continues to explore growth opportunities in new international markets including South-East Asia, Latin America, and the Middle East.”
