Year-on-year

FY2023 → FY2024 · period ending 2024-12-31 vs 2023-12-31

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

Audit opinion

Going concern
Affirmed

“The directors, having made due and careful enquiry and preparing cashflow forecasts, are of the opinion that the Company has adequate working capital to execute its operations over the next 12 months. As disclosed at note 20, the Company has renewed its banking facilities with a repayment date of August 2028. The directors, therefore, have made an informed judgement, at the time of approving the financial statements, that there is a reasonable expectation that the Company has adequate financial resources available to continue as a going concern for the foreseeable future. Accordingly the financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis.”

Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers
