Ratios

| Ratio | Trend | 2024-03-31 | 2025-03-31 |

| Gearing (liabilities / total assets) | 20.1% | 16.6% | |
| Current ratio | 3.00x | 3.43x |
Margins divide P&L lines by turnover. Gearing is liabilities over total assets. Current ratio is current assets over creditors falling due within one year. Interest cover is operating profit over absolute finance costs. Sector-distribution context coming next.

- Cooper Parry Group Limited
- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the Trustees' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the Group's or the Parent Charitable Company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.”
Group structure
- LANTRA · parent
- Upskill UK Limited 100%
- Lantra Awards Limited 100%
Significant events
- “In 2024-25 our Awarding Organisation certificated 135,715 individuals, an increase of 14% on the previous year.”
- “Last year we reviewed our training portfolio to include up-to-date content on sustainability and related good practice. This year, a successful application to the UK Shared Prosperity Fund, has enabled us to take the next step, developing and piloting six introductory courses on aspects of sustainable land management.”
- “The continued success of our awarding activities has allowed Lantra to increase its Investment in Skills, including 27% more spending on careers initiatives.”
- “Upskill UK Limited's profit primarily arose from the formal waiver of an intercompany loan, which was written off in the period. The decision has been made to transfer the residual activities of the company to Lantra, and to make the company dormant in 2025-26.”
- “During the year work was carried out to re-roof Lantra House Head Office, including additional insulation. Following a preparatory study by NFU Energy, sixty-eight solar PV panels have also been installed on the roof providing about a third of the electricity for the building.”

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
