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

- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The directors, having made due and careful enquiry, are of the opinion that the Group has adequate working capital and investment funding to execute its operations over the Going Concern period to 30 June 2026. The business has prepared detailed financial projections and has funding in place for the Going Concern period. Stress testing was performed to validate the adequacy of the working capital over the Going Concern period. The directors, therefore, have made an informed judgement, at the time of approving the financial statements, that there is a reasonable expectation that the Group has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the Going Concern period to 30 June 2026. Given that the Company funding is managed on group basis, the Company has received a parental letter of support from the ultimate parent, Star Neptune Topco Limited, to provide additional funding if required to enable the company to meet its liabilities as they fall due. As a result, the directors have continued to adopt the Going Concern Basis in preparing the financial statements.”
