Values shown as filed in the company's annual accounts. indicates the figure wasn't present under that line item in that period. About these numbers

Year-on-year

FY2023 → FY2024 · period ending 2024-12-31 vs 2023-12-31

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 2019-01-012019-12-312020-01-012020-12-312021-12-312022-01-012022-12-312023-01-012023-12-312024-12-31
Return on capital employed -64.5%-99.3%
Current ratio 7.15x3.94x

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 Directors have prepared the financial statements on a going concern basis. On 2 December 2025 the Company entered into a subscription agreement for the issue of $25 million of unsecured convertible loan notes. As of the approval date of these financial statements the Company has received $21 million in respect of this subscription. This will provide sufficient runway for the Company and Group to trade for beyond 12 months from the date of approval of these financial statements.”
