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

“The group meets its day to day working capital requirements through bank facilities which are renewed regularly. The group's forecasts and projections, taking account of reasonably possible changes in trading performance, show that the group will be able to operate within the level of its current facility. The directors are confident the facility will continue to be forthcoming on acceptable terms and, accordingly, the directors continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.”

Significant events
- “Our year-end financials reflect a strong performance, showcasing significant growth and resilience across key metrics.”
- “With the recent easing of planning delays and guidance in relation to the Building Safety Act now becoming understood, we have seen a number of projects that were secured but on hold, now progressing, further enhancing our order book for 2025 and 2026.”
- “Our profitability in the reporting year was impacted by more supply chain insolvencies in the MEP and glazing sector. Projects impacted by these supply chain insolvencies were completed in the financial year, with Practical Completions achieved and accounts agreed.”
- “The principal activity of DeGC during the year remains construction, refurbishment and fit out performing as a Principal Contractor across London's prime commercial, residential, hotel, hospitality and leisure sectors.”
- “Over 600,000 person hours worked on our sites with zero RIDDOR reportable accidents.”
