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.

Going concern

Affirmed

“The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which the directors consider to be appropriate. Having obtained the agreement of Aberdeen City Council to continue to support the company in these circumstances and recognising the contractual arrangements that are in place up to 2028, the Directors are satisfied that it is appropriate to prepare the accounts on a going concern basis.”

Significant events

• “The Board is pleased to report another successful year for Bon Accord Support Services Limited. This has been achieved despite the background of both an extremely challenging operating environment and the inflationary cost pressures that have been experienced in the year to 31 March 2025.”
• “Global economic events continue to have an impact upon both global and national economies. As both National and Scottish Governments react to cope with this pressure, levels of funding being provided to fund public sector services are being cut. These financial austerity measures within the public sector are restricting the level of funding Aberdeen City Council are receiving now and in the future.”
• “In 2024/25 we have successfully delivered against our contractual objectives achieved by delivering a small profit after tax on normal operations of £26,000 (2023/24 £3,000 loss) excluding movements in the pension liability.”
