Significant events
- “During 2024, we felt the financial benefit of moves made during FY2023, with cost of sales and administrative costs significantly down. Whilst revenue was also down, we are well placed to take advantage of any market recovery.”
- “Product development spend in 2024 was £881,000 (2023: £962,000).”
- “The Group meets its day to day working capital requirements through its cash balance and overdraft. It has in place a £1.5m CBIL loan, secured in June 2020, repayable over 6 years with capital repayments commencing from July 2021. This loan will be fully repaid by June 2026, which will result in additional cash flow of £300,000 per year from capital payments plus associated interest before the repayment of any other debt. There are two tranches of convertible loan debt, £400,000 and £300,000 for which repayment has been deferred by the holders of the convertible loans until the company attains a more favourable cash position. The debt is with current and former Directors all of whom remain supportive of the business. To enhance the cash flow position, the Group secured an overdraft facility in February 2025 to ensure it has enough liquidity for the business needs and can continue with development of software.”
- “The company has experienced a decline in turnover over a number of with years with a 11% drop in 2024 primarily as a result of the macro-economic environment in the recruitment industry.”
- “Revenue decreased 11% to £4,395,000 (2023: £4,948,000), while costs of sales decreased 16% to £465,000 (2023: £551,000) and administrative expenses were down 13% at £3,958,000 (2023: £4,556,000).”
