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 | 2023-12-31 | 2024-12-31 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Operating margin | 14.5% | 9.8% | |
| Net margin | 9.9% | 6.7% | |
| Return on capital employed | 79.0% | 38.9% | |
| Current ratio | 0.50x | 0.67x |
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. Sector-distribution context coming next.

- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The company is dependent upon the continued financial support of its parent company to enable it to continue as a going concern. The ultimate parent company, Cognizant Technology Solutions Corporation, has expressed its willingness to continue supporting the company for a period of not less than 12 months from the date of signing these financial statements. The directors therefore consider it appropriate to prepare these financial statements on a going concern basis.”
Significant events
- “The UKI business grew year on year in bookings revenues from 2023 to 2024 mostly on account of a large win in central government with the Matrix deal at the Department of Science Innovation and Technology at around £18 million.”
Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers
