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

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

“In the course of auditing the financial statements, I 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 I have performed, I have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the entity's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least 12 months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.”

Significant events

• “The company has performed above expectations in the year ended February 2025. Turnover increased considerably in the year due to the higher volume of projects and was £30,705k (growth of 53% year on year). As a result of continued control of direct costs and overheads, the company's capital and reserves were £4,952k (growth of 78% year on year).”
• “With challenges in the industry, the company is looking to maintain Turnover levels in 2025/26. The construction industry continues to face challenges as main contractors and subcontractors are ceasing to trade. Companies are ceasing to trade because of vast competition, high inflation and pricing.”
