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

“In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the directors' 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 group's and parent company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.”

Significant events

• “A shortage of HGV drivers has been identified by the road haulage association (RHA) had reported a shortfall of 50,000 HGV drivers in 2024. As a company we aim to retain staff through a positive work environment along with continued training and support.”
• “Increase in vehicles on the road are leading to higher congestion right across the UK, which can have an effect, causing longer and less predictable journey times, which undermines road hauliers' productivity and competitiveness. Poor road conditions increase vehicle repair and maintenance costs, impacting profitability and pricing.”
