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

“At the time of approving the financial statements, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus the directors continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.”
Significant events
- “At the start of the year the new Preparation Facility was opened and became functional in February 2024.”
- “Following the purchase of the Forfar Motor Company Ltd there has been steps to start moving commercial vehicle sales to the site in preparation for the move from the headquarters location at Muiryfaulds. This move will need to be completed by April 2027 and involves the further renovation of the Forfar Market site where the preparation centre is located.”
Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers
