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

“Notwithstanding the net liabilities of £64.8m as at 31 December 2024, the financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which the Directors consider to be appropriate for the following reasons. The Directors have prepared cash flow forecasts for the 12 months following the approval of the financial statements which indicate that the Group will have sufficient funds through funding from its ultimate parent company, Crown Worldwide Holdings Limited, to meet its liabilities as they fall due for that period. The forecasts are dependent on the Group's ultimate parent company, Crown Worldwide Holdings Limited, not seeking repayment of the amounts currently due to the group which at the balance sheet date amounted to £77.3m, and providing additional financial support during that period. Crown Worldwide Holdings Limited have indicated its intention to make funds available to the Group and that it does not intend to seek repayment of the amounts due at the balance sheet date for the period covered by the forecasts. As with any company placing reliance on other group entities for support, the directors acknowledge that there can be no certainty that this support will continue although at the date of approval of these financial statements, they have no reason to believe that it will not do so. Consequently, the Directors are confident that the Group will have sufficient funds to continue to meet its liabilities as they fall due for at least 12 months from the date of approval of the financial statements and therefore have prepared the financial statements on a going concern basis.”

Significant events

• “As a result of the group's acquisition of Ivan Ellerker Limited in 2023, the Group is now also active in the area of commercial relocations, storage of office furniture, logistics and furniture supply in Ireland.”
• “the company formally rebranded its Records Management business to become Crown Information Management early in 2025.”
• “we incurred £0.5m of costs removing the physical infrastructure from the facility within this financial year.”
• “The company has also taken the decision to exit from one further leasehold facility in the north of England. Whilst the exit itself will not be completed until March 2026, the relevance within the current financial year is that we incurred significant costs, totalling c. £1m, in remedial works ahead of the lease exit, impacting adversely on the company's profitability.”
• “In 2024, we invested in our first three electric vehicles and installed six EV charging points, now available at five of our 13 locations.”
• “We also completed the implementation of a new telematics system giving us a much greater chance of optimising routes and reducing necessary mileage and further reducing the size of our fleet in time.”
