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

“The directors have performed an assessment of going concern at a Group level, including a review of the Group's current cash position, available banking facilities and financial forecasts for 2026 and 2027, including the ability to adhere to banking covenants over the going concern window. In doing so the Directors have consulted with key stakeholders including financers and also considered current trading trends in our markets and extensive actions already undertaken to protect profitability and liquidity. Having considered the above factors, the directors are of the opinion that sufficient resources are in place to enable the business to continue to operate as a going concern for a period of 12 months following the date of this report.”
