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. Margin ratios are hidden where reported turnover is too small relative to profit to yield a meaningful figure — typical of holding companies whose income is mostly subsidiary dividends rather than trading revenue.

Going concern

Affirmed

“The directors are satisfied that the group will have sufficient liquid resources available to meet its obligations as they fall due. On the basis of the group's financial position and performance, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the group will be able to continue in business for the next 12 months. This includes an updated assessment of the impact of the current economic climate in the UK. For this reason, they continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the annual financial statements.”

Significant events

• “The year ended 31 January 2025 presented mixed results with nil revenue, £1,015 profit before tax, and £812 net profit. Administrative expenses saw a modest reduction. The company maintained profitability through net interest income. Geopolitical and monetary policy impacts created challenging operating environment, with increased costs and reduced housing market affordability.”
