Year-on-year

FY2024 → FY2025 · period ending 2025-03-31 vs 2024-03-31

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

Going concern
Affirmed

“The directors have prepared forecasts for at least 12 months from the date of approval of these financial statements, which takes into account their trading forecasts. The directors have also taken into account the financing available to the company & group, including consideration of compliance with loan covenants. The directors have performed sensitivity analysis and concluded that the level of decline in revenues to result in a covenant breach is not plausible due to the nature of the contract with the MOD. Accordingly, the directors do not believe there are any material uncertainties which may cast significant doubt on the ability of the company & group to continue as a going concern, as such, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the annual report and accounts.”
