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
Ratios

“Having considered the items set out above the Directors have a reasonable expectation that the Company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. As a result, the financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis.”
Significant events
- “The UK Oil and Gas Industry continues to suffer from uncertainties arising in both the political (sustainability and licence restrictions) and fiscal (Energy Profits Levy) arenas, leading customers to defer or cancel development programmes or in some cases, seek to exit the region. These uncertainties continue to suppress exploration, drilling and associated activities and therefore the demand for Augean's services in the North Sea.”
- “Due to these macro-economic factors on the Company's key markets going forward, and following a full business review, the Company has taken an impairment charge of £779,000 (2023: £2,837,000) against the Company's assets during the year.”
- “Forecast period of 8 years to reflect the perceived CGU/industry life. A reduction in revenue outside of the forecast horizon of 2.5% p.a. Maintenance capex to decrease at 10% p.a. up.”
