- Affirmed
“The company had a strong cash balance at 31 July 2025 and sensitivity analysis carried out by the directors demonstrates that significant fluctuations would be required in both sales and costs in order to have any meaningful reduction in the cash balance.”
Significant events
- “The directors are pleased with the overall performance of the company for the year. Whilst there are currently challenging times with higher interest rates and uncertainty within the property market, demand for the company's homes has continued. Turnover and profits for the year have increased compared to the previous year. The company continues to be active in the management of its overheads. The company remains in a strong financial position with net current assets of £30.4 (2024: £29.6m) including land held for development and work in progress of £9.3m (2024: £9.1m). The directors believe the future prospects of the company are sound.”

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
