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

“Having considered the above factors the Directors are confident, on the basis of current financial projections and credit facilities available, that the Company has adequate resources to continue in operation for the foreseeable future.”
Significant events
- “The financial statements show a statutory operating loss of £39.2m (2023: loss of £37.8m). The main reason for the loss in 2024 is due to a timing issue between the costs being incurred or accrued, and receipt of regulated income in the form of tariffs.”
- “The company has extended its Market Banking Facilities (£45m) to December 2027. These were due to expire in May 2025. The extension was signed on 19 March 2025.”
