Year-on-year

FY2023 → FY2024 · period ending 2024-10-31 vs 2023-10-31

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

Ratios

Computed from the line items above — sparklines read oldest → newest

Ratio Trend 2022-10-312023-10-312024-10-31
Operating margin 10.2%43.0%
Net margin 92.0%
Return on capital employed 0.4%40.0%
Current ratio 52.23x0.84x
Interest cover 0.05x0.30x

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.

Going concern
Material uncertainty disclosed

“The principal risk to the Group's going concern position relates to liquidity, reflecting the impact of recent sector-wide challenges on working capital and profitability... At the time of signing, the group is in breach of certain financial covenants... these balances... are technically repayable on demand... The directors acknowledge these facts currently represent a material uncertainty that, if they were not addressed, would have the potential to cast doubt on the entity's ability to continue as a going concern at the date of approval.”
