Material uncertainty over going concern
At 30 September 2025, the Company was in a net current liability position due to an intragroup loan owed to the Parent Company and depends on its financial support. Directors considered it appropriate to prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis, despite increased uncertainty over future ground-rent income for the Group.

Ratios
Computed from the line items above — sparklines read oldest → newest
| Ratio | Trend | 2023-09-30 | 2024-09-30 | 2025-09-30 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Operating margin | — | — | -115.5% | |
| Gearing (liabilities / total assets) | 115.1% | 170.7% | 210.4% | |
| Current ratio | 0.01x | 0.03x | 0.03x |
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. 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.

Significant events
- “Government published draft Commonhold and Leasehold Reform Bill (Jan 2026) proposing to cap ground rents at £250 and reducing to peppercorn after 40 years, introducing increased uncertainty for future ground-rent income.”
- “Judicial Review challenging the Leasehold Reform Act was dismissed in Oct 2025, with an appeal decision expected in 2026, affecting ground rent provisions.”
- “On 31 March 2026, the Company's portfolio was independently valued at £855,333, a 56.6% reduction from 30 Sep 2025, and continues to include a material uncertainty clause.”
