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

- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“Having reviewed the company's financial forecasts and expected future cash flows, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus, the going concern basis has been adopted in preparing the financial statements for the year ended 30 September 2025. This assumes that the loan finance relating to the property, from which the company trades, will be refinanced.”
Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers
