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 | 2023-12-31 | 2024-12-31 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Return on capital employed | -144.5% | 775.6% | |
| Gearing (liabilities / total assets) | 60.9% | 125.6% | |
| Current ratio | 0.65x | 0.43x | |
| Interest cover | -2.96x | -36.10x |
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. Margin ratios are hidden where reported turnover is too small relative to profit to yield a meaningful figure — typical of holding companies whose income is mostly subsidiary dividends rather than trading revenue. Sector-distribution context coming next.

- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis as the directors have assessed the ability of the company to continue trading for a minimum period of 12 months from the date of authorising these financial statements. The directors have obtained a letter of financial support from the Company's parent entity, Roche Diagnostics Limited, and assessed the ability of the parent to provide the levels of financial assistance required to enable the company to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. Based on the above, the directors believe it is appropriate to prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis.”
