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

- Auditor
- Johnston Carmichael LLP
- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The Directors have adopted the going concern basis in preparing the Company's accounts. The Company's ability to continue as a going concern is for the period assessed by the Directors, being the period to 31 January 2027, which is at least 12 months from the date the financial statements were authorised for issue. The going concern assessment took account of wars in Ukraine and the Middle East; the increase in geopolitical tension between the US and China and the potential for increases in global trade tariffs. The Company's principal risks are market-related and the recent volatile market conditions have demonstrated the resilience of the Company and its investment objective and policy.”
Significant events
- “The Company has delivered another year of strong performance in what has been a volatile market environment. The 12 month reporting period included a sharp sell off following "Liberation Day", and despite the subsequent tariff-related volatility that rattled Japanese markets, performance for the full year was again ahead of the TOPIX, supported by strong stock selection, particularly among financials.”
- “The Company's dividend has risen every year since inception, and will achieve a tenth consecutive increase upon the payment of the Company's second interim dividend for the year ended 31 October 2025 on 2 March 2026 earning the Company a coveted place on the AIC's 'Next Generation Dividend Heroes' list.”
- “The Company declared an interim dividend of 1.65p per share in June 2025 which was paid on 1 August 2025. On 16 January 2026, the Directors declared a second interim dividend for the year ended 31 October 2025 of 4.25p per share, which, will be paid on 2 March 2026 to shareholders on the register as at 30 January 2026, with an ex-dividend date of 29 January 2026.”
- “The Company's tenth AGM will be held at the offices of Stephenson Harwood LLP, 1 Finsbury Circus, London EC2M 7SH at 12 noon on Friday, 27 February 2026.”
