Significant events
- “The aviation industry's sensitivity to geopolitical events can have an impact throughout the supply chain. The pressures experienced globally on the availability of raw material and labour resources has caused an imbalance in the manufacture and supply of certain products; increasing lead times. The Group has secured the purchase of additional inventories to help address these issues and the directors do not believe that this materially effects the company's turnover and cash flows.”
- “There have been no subsequent events.”

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
