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

- 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
- “FIHL exceeded 2023 turnover by £3.8m (29%). Gross profit margin, for the continuing operations, decreased from 13.1% to 8.8%, reflecting considerable market pressures during the year. To address this, the group is focusing more on higher-profit, outcome-based service deliverables with considerable success.”
- “Recent expansion into the Australian market has proven to be a considerable success, with a solid business created and further opportunities being explored there.”
- “Governance and reporting within the group's investments in the Middle-East - particularly in Saudi Arabia - continued to improve in 2024. This has allowed for more predictable and stable income streams into FIHL, delivering good returns on the significant investment the group has made in the region over previous years.”
- “The directors have completed their programme of reducing the number of minority shareholders within the group. This has been achieved through share buybacks in its German and Kazakhstani entities, closing its Russian business, and through consolidating its African business into a single entity.”
- “In September 2024, FCL hived off its non-core training business, Flint Sl d.o.o.. This move will further concentrate the focus of the business on its core strategic resourcing business line and managed services more closely aligned with this. With the disposal of the Slovenian business being the major contributing factor, net assets of the business decreased to £4.3m.”
