Material uncertainty over going concern
We draw attention to Note 2.2 in the financial statements, which indicates that the group incurred a profit for the year ended 31 January 2025 of £216,083 and as of that date, the group's current liabilities exceeded its total assets by £1,823,081(2024 - £2,319,164) and the company's current liabilities exceeded its total assets by £1,627,718(2024 - £1,515,677). As stated in Note 2.2, these events or conditions, along with the other matters as set forth in Note 2.2, indicate that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the group's or the company's ability to continue as a going concern. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.

Significant events
- “Ted Baker UK went into administration during 2024, with all their physical stores in the UK closing. This lead to widespread discounting of Ted products online and reduced our margins.”
- “Our airport stores continued to trade well, and whilst our most profitable stores are continuing the two Gatwick stores cosed at the end of March 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
