Material uncertainty over going concern
During the financial year, the group completed all existing customer contracts. The directors have determined that no further contracts will be entered into and that the group will therefore cease trading. As a result, the directors have concluded that it is no longer appropriate to prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis. Accordingly, the financial statements have been prepared on a break-up basis, under which assets are stated at their estimated realisable values and liabilities include provisions for costs expected to be incurred in connection with the cessation of trading.

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

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. Sector-distribution context coming next.
