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 opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The directors have considered the application of the going concern basis of accounting in doing so they have considered the period from the date of this report until 31 December 2025. The directors have a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus, they continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the annual financial statements.”
Significant events
- “Lower than expected supply chain inflation across 2024 resulted in gross profit margin above plan.”
- “The IEO (Informal Eating Out) and QSR (Quick Service Restaurant) markets have continued to see a decline in customer visits versus 2023.”
- “The company launched several trading initiatives to increase footfall in to our restaurants, which have seen strong results and led to market share gains.”
- “2024 economic trends are broadly expected to continue into 2025, with anticipated interest rate cuts and low consumer sentiment.”
- “The company plans to make menu board price increases in 2025 to achieve increased gross profit margin for Q4 2025.”
- “It is the strategy of the company to carry out store refurbishments projects at regular intervals to benefit customers in store dining experience.”
