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 director's 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 and 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
- “During 2025, renewable energy markets continued to adjust following several years of rapid expansion, with conditions varying across technologies and geographies.”
- “The offshore wind sector remained in a period of recalibration during 2025, with project delays and phased investment decisions affecting permanent recruitment volumes.”
- “BESS continued to grow in strategic importance, supported by falling technology costs, grid stabilisation requirements and supportive policy frameworks.”
- “The solar PV sector experienced a period of correction as global manufacturing capacity exceeded demand, resulting in pricing pressure and a temporary slowdown in permanent hiring.”
