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 | 2022-12-31 | 2023-12-31 | 2024-12-31 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Operating margin | — | 0.8% | -14.8% | |
| Return on capital employed | — | 0.0% | -0.5% | |
| Current ratio | — | 3.97x | 2.41x | |
| Interest cover | — | 0.00x | -0.02x |
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 group prepares detailed quarterly forward forecasts to assess likely future financial performance over the subsequent period to June 2026, assessing liquidity and trading profitability performance against key performance indicators, including cash and banking covenants. Due to underlying market conditions and suppressed trading in the year to December 2024, we have required both bank and investor support to reset covenants aligned to current trading and forward forecasts. Covenants were consequently reset in September 2024 and which are assessed by Board and management periodically to ensure forward forecast headroom exists. Maintaining the continued support of both banks and investors, as demonstrated during recent covenant reset including short term cash collateral guarantee and further enhanced by a letter of support from the principal investors, the private equity house, covering a period at least 12 months from the date of approval of these financial statements, the directors have a reasonable expectation, that the company, based upon the group assessment, has adequate resources to continue in operational existence beyond the minimum forecast period of at least twelve months from the date of approval of the financial statements and therefore continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the annual report and financial statements.”
