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
Ratios
Computed from the line items above — sparklines read oldest → newest
| Ratio | Trend | 2024-03-31 | 2025-03-31 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Net margin | -4.5% | 0.4% | |
| Gearing (liabilities / total assets) | 43.0% | 39.6% | |
| Current ratio | 3.37x | 3.78x |
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
“In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the charity's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.”

Significant events
- “The most significant change this year was the retirement of our long-serving CEO, Raymond Branton, after two decades of dedicated service.”
- “We welcomed Simon Henderson into the role of CEO, bringing continuity and fresh vision from his previous position as Operations Manager.”
- “We also introduced a new Business Development Manager, Jane Masters, reflecting our commitment to growth and innovation.”
- “Simply Play maintained strong attendance during term time and improved financial performance by venue consolidation and cost-saving measures.”
