Significant events

• “Interest rates remained elevated throughout 2024, constraining construction activity despite a gradual reduction in the second half of the year. Inflationary pressures eased but continued to affect input costs. The election of a new Labour government in July, with a commitment to deliver 1.5 million new homes, introduced potential policy shifts; however, uncertainty around implementation meant no material impact was observed during the year.”

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
