Significant events

• “The UK garage services industry has faced another year of turbulence shaped by persistent inflationary pressures, elevated borrowing costs and cautious consumer sentiment. Despite these headwinds, Mr Clutch has demonstrated resilience and agility, achieving growth in service volumes and maintaining strong operational performance.”
• “Customers are holding onto their Internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles for longer as affordability challenges discourage new purchases. This has sustained demand for maintenance and repair, particularly for ageing vehicles that require complex and more frequent servicing.”

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
