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

Significant events
- “The financial year ending March 2025 was a period of strong performance and continued development. Turnover rose to £25,588,943 and profit before tax remained strong at £2,003,210. This was driven by sustained investment in the Group's proprietary product, Tracxion, and a focused marketing strategy.”
- “The comparative results included a release of a provision for estimated historic liabilities within the USA. The release has been recognised as an adjustment in the prior period.”
