Significant events
- “Costs were also incurred during the year following the acquisition of new rental premises for our Ashton branch in October 2024.”
- “The same costs were also increased by the acquisition of a 13th trading branch in Holyhead on Anglesey in the Autumn of 2024 with the branch expected to be trading profitably by the end of 2025.”
- “The sale of a long lease property previously occupied by the Ashton branch was completed in April 2025 and has significantly reduced the level of borrowings.”
- “The bad debt charge more than doubled against the previous financial year due to the insolvency of one long-standing but un-insured customer.”

Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. Periods don't have to be exactly 12 months apart — a long or short period (typical around incorporation or year-end changes) will distort the comparison. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers
