Going concern
Affirmed

“The directors have considered the company's current and future prospects and its availability of financing, and are satisfied that the company can continue to pay its liabilities as they fall due for the period to 30th September 2026 from the date of these financial statements are authorised for issue. The directors have also considered the potential implications of the conflict in Ukraine and wider headwinds in global economies in respect of matters such as price inflation and increases in energy costs. The company is in a position that it can call on reserves from previous years to support the business going forward, if required.”

Year-on-year

FY2023 → FY2024 · period ending 2024-12-31 vs 2023-12-31

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
