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

“In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the directors' 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 company'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

• “FY2025 was another good year of high sales growth at 24.8%, bringing our compounded annual growth rate to 21.3% over the last 4 years.”
• “With an aging fleet of delivery vehicles and limited market supply of suitable replacements, we have experienced a rise in vehicle maintenance costs which we foresee continuing until early 2026 when approximately 400 new vehicles will start arriving.”
• “The company is committed to its sustainability plan, introducing 38 electric vehicles in the year.”
• “Investment into IT systems will play an important role in 2026 and help our ability to capture and retain more growth and better control the cost of growth where our business model relies on over one thousand staff and several hundred vehicles.”
• “Global risk factors from tariff changes, geopolitical issues, commodity price changes, inflationary pressures, and regulatory changes can cause the business uncertainty and challenges.”
