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.

Significant events

• “The firm's collective net profitability declined in 2024/2025 due to investment in our support infrastructure by building our Accounts Team; IT Team; Education and Training Team and due to the recruitment of some Senior Staff whose fee generation would not impact for 12-18 months.”
• “Partnership at MSB is currently 17 Partners. 2024/2025 saw the departure of Paula Mansfield and Phillip Coburn. A new Partner, Gemma Kelsey was brought into our Birmingham team and we have just recruited internally for Partners and appointed 7 new Partners who will take up their new positions on 1st September 2025.”
