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

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. Sector-distribution context coming next.

Audit opinion

Unqualified (clean)

Going concern

Affirmed

“At the time of approving the financial statements, the Directors have a confident expectation that the group has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. The Directors have prepared trading projections to the end of March 2027 based on current trading conditions. The projections, along with the group's strong cash reserves, provide the Directors with a reasonable expectation that the group has sufficient funds in place to continue as a going concern for a minimum period of 12 months from the date of authorising the financial statements.”
