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 | 2019-09-30 | 2020-09-30 | 2023-12-31 | 2024-12-31 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Operating margin | — | — | -104.9% | 61.1% | |
| Net margin | — | — | — | -16.5% | |
| Return on capital employed | — | — | 25.3% | -13.7% | |
| Gearing (liabilities / total assets) | — | — | 258.1% | 254.5% | |
| Current ratio | — | — | 0.04x | 0.06x | |
| Interest cover | — | — | -0.65x | 0.78x |
Margins divide P&L lines by turnover. 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.

“After making enquiries, the director has a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence and meet its liabilities as they fall due for the foreseeable future, being a period of at least twelve months from the date these financial statements were approved. The director has received written assurances of the continued support of the Grandcity Properties S.A., confirming the parent's continued support to the company for the foreseeable future being a period of 12 months from the date the financial statements were approved.”
Significant events
- “Subsequent to the year end, a loan of £17,237,846 was novated from the company to a fellow group entity. This did not result in a net change to amounts owed to group undertakings.”
- “Further, subsequent to the year end, amounts owed to group undertakings of £20,000,000 were waived, resulting in a gain in the company's 2025 profit and loss account.”
Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers
