Year-on-year

FY2023 → FY2024 · period ending 2024-12-31 vs 2023-12-31

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 directors of the company are common directors of the parent company and are confident support will be available if needed. In respect of the intercompany loan balance of £34,118,673 due to Group Undertakings, confirmation has been obtained that repayment of the balances will not be demanded or sought unless the company has the financial resources available to do so. On the basis of this assessment, the directors consider that the company has adequate resources to operate for the foreseeable future. and as such, has adopted the going concern basis in preparing these financial statements.”
