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

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.

Significant events

• “This year has seen continued increase on occupancy levels across all services, however cost of living increases, salary increases, and a challenging recruitment market have continued to make it a challenging one.”

• “Outstanding Quality - We will continue to surprise people with our commitment to outstanding quality, focusing sharply on quality activity that will achieve sustainable long term positive outcomes for children and families and for the organisation.”
• “Recruiting and retaining the best people - Indigo will recruit, retain and nurture special people at the right time in the right roles, who deliver outstanding quality for our families and are equipped to cope with the fast paced, innovative and quality committed organisation that is Indigo.”
