Significant events
- “The company endured a challenging year in 2024. Uncertainty around Far Eastern supply chains impacted stock availability which in turn put downward pressure on performance. However continued investment in the company's support functions have meant that supply lines are now considerably more robust. Additionally the Group has issued shares to senior management as part of a wider incentive review.”

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
