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

- Auditor
- Saffery LLP
- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“Taking the above into consideration, the directors believe the company has enough funds available to continue as a going concern. On this basis 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
- “During the year, the company maintained full regulatory compliance, resolved legacy lease compliance issues with Homes England confirming resolution in February 2024, and further strengthened its governance, risk, and assurance arrangements.”
- “During the year the company entered into a joint venture agreement with Meadow Partners whereby AHCL provides services to the joint venture entities in relation to deal origination, construction, sales and marketing. As part of this joint venture AHCL transferred assets to the joint venture in return for consideration which was used to pay down all bank debt.”
- “During FY25, reinvestment and new supply delivery fell to 0%, reflecting the Board's decision to pause new development commitments while reviewing the company's funding strategy and priorities. At the same time, gearing reduced significantly to 52.2%, strengthening the balance sheet.”
