Ratios
Computed from the line items above — sparklines read oldest → newest
| Ratio | Trend | 2023-12-31 | 2024-12-31 | 2025-12-31 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Gearing (liabilities / total assets) | 1021.2% | 6530.0% | — | |
| Current ratio | 0.03x | 0.02x | 0.01x |
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. Margin ratios are hidden where reported turnover is too small relative to profit to yield a meaningful figure — typical of holding companies whose income is mostly subsidiary dividends rather than trading revenue. Sector-distribution context coming next.

“The Company has net liabilities at year end of £925,924 (2024: £925,924). The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes that the Company will continue to trade for a period of at least twelve months from the date of approval of the financial statements, on the basis that the ultimate parent company, STM Group Plc, is committed to assisting the Company in meeting all liabilities as they fall due.”
Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers
