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 | 2020-12-31 | 2021-12-31 | 2023-12-31 | 2024-12-31 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Operating margin | — | — | 2.9% | -0.3% | |
| Net margin | — | — | 2.6% | 0.7% | |
| Return on capital employed | 100.6% | 64.5% | 6.1% | -0.7% | |
| Gearing (liabilities / total assets) | — | — | 93.2% | 95.7% | |
| Current ratio | — | — | 1.07x | 1.12x | |
| Interest cover | — | -163.40x | 10.32x | -0.23x |
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.

“The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes that the Company will continue in operational existence for at least twelve months from the date these financial statements are approved. [...] Paynetics AD Bulgaria, the immediate parent company, has provided the company with an undertaking that for a period of at least 12 months from the date of approval of these financial statements, it will make available such funds as are needed by the company to enable it to meet its liabilities as and when they fall due. This together with its own working capital will, in the opinion of the directors, enable the company to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future.”
Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers
