Values shown as filed in the company's annual accounts. indicates the figure wasn't present under that line item in that period. About these numbers

Year-on-year

FY2024 → FY2025 · period ending 2025-04-30 vs 2024-04-30

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

“The directors have a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements. The company is considered to be a going concern because of its strong net asset position, the continued support of its ultimate parent company and its ongoing ability to generate consistently strong levels of turnover and net operating profits in the face of challenging economic conditions. A parental support letter has been obtained confirming that for the period to 31 December 2026, it will make available such funds as may be required to enable the company to meet its obligations as they fall due.”
