Values shown as filed in the company's annual accounts. indicates the figure wasn't present under that line item in that period. About these numbers

Year-on-year

FY2023 → FY2024 · period ending 2024-09-27 vs 2023-09-29

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

Material uncertainty disclosed

“Material uncertainty related to going concern... indicate that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the company's ability to continue as a going concern. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter. The Company is dependent on the continued support of Woolpit Business Parks Limited, a company under common control. The Company leases its premises from Woolpit Business Parks Limited and has not made any rent payments since January 2024. Woolpit Business Parks Limited has committed to not call for payment of any rent due to it now or in the future should this render the company unable to settle its liabilities as they fall due. Woolpit Business Parks Limited has also committed to provide sufficient funds to enable the Company to continue trading for a period of at least 12 months from the date these financial statements were approved should this be required.”
