Going concern
Affirmed

“The Directors are satisfied that having considered the current uncertain economic conditions, the Company, by virtue of its continued funding by its parent, has adequate resources to continue in business for the foreseeable future. A letter of support has also been received from Saffron Building Society confirming that any shortfall of external costs will be covered by the parent and that intercompany funding will not be withdrawn in the 12 months following the signing of these financial statements. For these reasons, the accounts continue to be prepared on the going concern basis.”

Year-on-year

FY2024 → FY2025 · period ending 2025-12-31 vs 2024-12-31

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
