Material uncertainty over going concern
Notwithstanding net current liabilities of £2,619k as at 31 October 2025, the financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which the directors consider to be appropriate for the following reasons. The directors have prepared cash flow forecasts for a period of 12 months from the date of approval of these financial statements, which indicate that, taking account of reasonably possible downsides, the Company will have sufficient funds, through funding from its joint venture partners Speedy Asset Services Limited and H-Power Plc (previously known as AFC Energy Plc), to meet its liabilities as they fall due.

Ratios
Computed from the line items above — sparklines read oldest → newest
| Ratio | Trend | 2024-10-31 | 2025-10-31 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Net margin | — | -170.0% | |
| Return on capital employed | -2.6% | -6.5% | |
| Gearing (liabilities / total assets) | 77.9% | 74.5% | |
| Current ratio | 0.41x | 0.24x |
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.
