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
Ratios
Computed from the line items above — sparklines read oldest → newest
| Ratio | Trend | 2020-09-30 | 2021-09-30 | 2022-09-30 | 2022-12-31 | 2023-12-31 | 2024-12-31 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Return on capital employed | — | — | — | — | -72.9% | -68.3% | |
| Current ratio | — | — | — | — | 96.06x | 25.87x |
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. Sector-distribution context coming next.

“The Group has incurred accumulated losses of approximately £32m as at 31 December 2024. While cash outflows have been experienced during the period, management has implemented a number of strategic initiatives aimed at strengthening the Group's financial position. These include plans to increase subscription revenues through both expansion of existing subscription offerings and the introduction of new subscription products beginning in 2026. In addition, the Group is actively progressing a new funding round, which is expected to be completed by Q2 2026. Securing this funding will provide the necessary capital to support ongoing operations and continue delivering on the Group's strategic objectives, fully aligned with the vision of current shareholders.”
