Significant events

• “On April 17th 2025, Hitachi Europe Ltd proceeded to a capital injection of £386,560 to its Greek subsidiary.”
• “Revenue decreased by 24% from £132,144,000 in 2024 to £100,624,000 in 2025. The decrease in revenue is due to lower semiconductor product sales, following the discontinued operations of the Power Device Division (PDD). This change occurred after MinebeaMitsumi acquired the HEU Power Device Division on 2 May 2024.”

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
