Significant events
- “In September 2022, the Company secured a new two-year £59.3m stock facility with Silbury Specialty Finance Limited. Proceeds were used to repay, in full, the existing bank debt facility, provided by HSBC and Bank Leumi, for a total redemption amount of £46.4m. The new facility extended the funding horizon, increased the amount of bank debt available to the Company and reduced the level of security.”
- “In 2023, Audley announced Mayfield Brent Cross Town as its second Mayfield Village.”
- “The Company's loss after tax for the financial year is £59.6m (2022 - loss of £60.7m) and its net liabilities at 31 December 2023 were £116.8m (2022 - £57.1m liabilities).”

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
