Significant events
- “The revenue decrease in the year was due to two large banking projects in 2023 not repeating in 2024.”
- “2024 was a transition year where the volume of banking work decreased due to lower market project demand, combined with heavy new investment to build a retailer customer base.”
- “A former employee commenced legal action against the Company in the year in respect of an employee tribunal matter. The legal action is ongoing, and no provision has been recognised in these financial statements in respect of any potential obligation to settle this matter after the reporting date.”

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
