Going concern
Affirmed

“Given the assumptions above, and that the Directors are satisfied that the parent undertaking has agreed to support the company if required, with a letter of parental support in place, the Directors remain confident that the Group continue to operate in an agile way adapting to any continued travel disruption. Therefore, it is considered appropriate to continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing these financial statements.”

Year-on-year

FY2023 → FY2024 · period ending 2024-09-30 vs 2023-09-30

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
