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

- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the Group's or the parent Company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.”

Significant events
- “We have already secured several high value contracts for the coming year and already expect that in 2024/25 we will exceed the figures achieved in 2023/24.”
- “Other factors have also had an impact on the Group's accounts, including energy price rises and continued supply chain challenges, though these have eased this year.”
- “Ongoing conflicts and other global trends have highlighted the scale of unforeseen events we can face and has emphasised the prudence of our approach to funding the business.”
