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 & accounting basis
- Accounting basis
- FRS 102
- Reporting scope
- Standalone (parent only)
- Auditor
- Hammond McNulty LLP
- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“At the time of approving the financial statements, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus the directors continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.”
Significant events
- “Cafe Fortune had 24 operating sites at the end of September 2024. Turnover increased by 17% which was driven by opening 5 new sites throughout the last financial year. These were open using organic growth and were funded using retained earnings and bank loan. The new sites contributed to an additional turnover of £1.04m (6.2%) in the last financial year.”
- “The company's quick ratio has increased by 24% due to an increase in current assets (driven by inter-company loan).”
Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers
