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

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. Sector-distribution context coming next.

Going concern

Affirmed

“In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the director's use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the entity's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least 12 months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.”

Significant events

• “Through a series of strategic acquisitions of plant and machinery, the company has been able to expand its channel breadth and expand its product portfolio.”
• “In January 2024 the government announced its intention to ban the use of single use vapes and plans for further consultation on the regulation of vape flavours, packaging and point of sale. This new regulation comes into force on 01 June 2025 when it will become illegal for businesses in the UK to sell, offer for sale, or possess for sale any single-use or disposable vapes.”
