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

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

“In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the directors' 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 entity's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least 12 months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.”

Significant events

• “Hotel revenues remained on a par with 2023, albeit accommodation and leisure club sales increased by @£80k, whilst food and liquor revenues showed a similar decline, attributable to a reduced number of weddings year on year.”
• “Overall hotel operating profit after management fees for the year was £087k (prior year £957k), a decline due to poor revenue growth and increased costs, mainly manning, with NLW increasing by 9%.”
• “Projects for the next financial year are focused on reducing the hotel's carbon footprint, with initiatives like solar energy underway to reduce costs amidst increasing utility costs.”
