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

Significant events
- “The year to 31 March 2025 delivered none of the hoped for respite nor fair winds with respect to input inflation, labour costs, skill shortages and a receptive customer base regarding the management and acceptance of cost price movements. The group however continued to recognise the influencing economic conditions and progressed the commercial strategy for the medium-term instigated FY 2023/2024.”
