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

“Management have produced forecasts that have also been sensitised to reflect plausible downside scenarios which have been reviewed by the directors. These demonstrate the Group is forecast to generate profits and cash in the year ending 30 June 2026 and beyond and that the Group has sufficient cash reserves to enable it to meet its obligations as they fall due for a period of at least 12 months from the date of signing of these financial statements. As such, the directors are satisfied that the Group has adequate resources to continue to operate for the foreseeable future. For this reason they continue to adopt the going concern basis for preparing these financial statements.”

Significant events
- “Sales to November are 7.1% up on last year. Warrens Bakery opened a new store at the end of November 2025 in London Liverpool Street railway station which has the largest footfall of any UK station at around 95 million passengers a year. This will significantly increase their sales in the travel sector where footfall continues to grow. Cornish Sea Salt is benefitting from significant growth in the USA. Margins in both companies are improving further and profit for the year is expected to increase significantly. On 26 November 2025 a resolution was passed by Bako Western Limited, a Mutual Society, to approve the sale of their business and assets to Bako Group Limited. Following completion of the sale Bako Western will be liquidated and the surplus cash returned to members. Warrens Bakery is a member of Bako Western and is expected receive in excess of £1m as a result of the transaction around the end of 2026.”
