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

- Affirmed
“At the time of approving the financial statements, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the group has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus the directors continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.”
Group structure

Significant events
- “2023 represents an exceptionally strong year for the Group, driven by the expansion of tagging programmes by our existing customers and enhanced interest from new customers as the retail industry reacts to the widespread challenges of theft and organised retail crime.”
- “Ordinary dividends were paid amounting to £168,000.”
- “Within 2023, Sekura Global Holdings Ltd issued a share with the controlling voting rights to a Trust but with limited capital and income rights. This caused the accounts for FY23 to not fully consolidate the results of Sekura Global Holdings Ltd and Sekura Global LLC.”
- “On 6th April 2023, the controlling share holding of Sekura Global Holdings Limited was acquired by SGH Discretionary Trust. Consequently, this sub group of Sekura Global Holdings Limited and its subsidiary Sekura Global LLC were no longer under control of Aspen House Holdings Limited.”
