Affirmed

“The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, as the Directors have assessed the Group's financial position and cash flow forecasts and are satisfied that it will continue to operate within its existing overdraft facility for a period of at least 12 months from the date of approval of the financial statements, with no material uncertainties identified that would cast significant doubt over its ability to continue as a going concern.”

Year-on-year

FY2024 → FY2025 · period ending 2025-01-31 vs 2024-01-31

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
