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
Ratios
Computed from the line items above — sparklines read oldest → newest
| Ratio | Trend | 2024-12-31 | 2025-12-31 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Operating margin | -0.6% | -4.3% | |
| Net margin | 0.4% | -3.3% | |
| Return on capital employed | -8.0% | -90.9% | |
| Gearing (liabilities / total assets) | 86.1% | 90.9% | |
| Current ratio | 1.15x | 1.09x |
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.
Audit & accounting basis
- Accounting basis
- FRS 102
- Reporting scope
- Standalone (parent only)
- Auditor
- Crowe U.K. LLP
- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The Directors are confident the company will continue for at least twelve months from the date of approval of these financial statements. The financial statements have therefore been prepared on the going concern basis.”
Significant events
- “The impact of global events. At the time of writing, war in the Middle East has resulted in higher oil and gas prices. This could lead to energy suppliers struggling to meet their liabilities as they fall due, potentially resulting in bad debt risk for Smart Energy GB (if the UK Government does not intervene).”
Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers
