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

Audit & accounting basis
- Accounting basis
- FRS 102
- Reporting scope
- Standalone (parent only)
- Auditor
- Barnes Roffe Audit Limited
- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. The directors have considered the factors which impact the company's future development, performance, cash flow, and financial position in forming their opinion on the going concern basis. The directors believe that the company has adequate resources to continue to operate and meet its obligations as they fall due for the foreseeable future, being at least 12 months from the date of approval of these financial statements, and therefore the use of the going concern assumption is appropriate.”
Significant events
- “During the year the company entered a sale and lease-back agreement of its property with a related party company.”
- “After the year end Barnes Roffe LLP resigned as auditors due to the transfer of its audit business and its successor Barnes Roffe Audit Limited was appointed by the directors under s485 Companies Act 2006.”
Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers
