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
“The director has considered the company's current and future prospects and is satisfied that the company can continue to satisfy its obligations as they fall due, for the period until 28 February 2027. Based on company forecasts, which include projected future cash flows including downgrade scenarios, the director has a reasonable expectation that the company will have adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the period until 27 February 2027.”
Significant events
- “Turnover has decreased compared to the prior year by 3.4%. This was a result of a further deceleration in the supply of materials to activities in the North Sea. Profit for the financial year fell by 88.8% due to product mix and to the increased reliance on the construction sector. Overall profit and loss reserves decreased by 43.2% mainly due to a dividend paid in the year of £2,000,000.”
Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers
