Ratios
Computed from the line items above — sparklines read oldest → newest
| Ratio | Trend | 2024-06-30 | 2025-06-30 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Gearing (liabilities / total assets) | 11.0% | 18.6% | |
| Current ratio | 9.09x | 5.37x |
Margins divide P&L lines by turnover. Gearing is liabilities over total assets. Current ratio is current assets over creditors falling due within one year. Interest cover is operating profit over absolute finance costs. Sector-distribution context coming next.
Audit & accounting basis
- Accounting basis
- FRS 102
- Reporting scope
- Standalone (parent only)
- Auditor
- Saffery LLP
- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“At the time of approving the financial statements the Trustees have a reasonable expectation that the Charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future, being a period of at least a year from the date the accounts are signed. This is based on budget and cashflow forecasts, underpinned by healthy levels of free reserves. Thus, the Trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.”
Significant events
- “2025 marked WMF's 60th anniversary, and WMF Britain's 30th anniversary. Events and celebrations have been taking place throughout year and across the world.”
- “The Palm House conservation project received a major boost in Summer 2025 through a £5 million grant from the Julia Rausing Trust.”
- “WMF Britain successfully secured $68,000 from UCLA's Modern Endangered Archives Programme for digitisation of the Minnette De Silva project in June 2025.”
- “Funding for the next phase of Coastal Connections has been secured through a successful bid to the Lloyds Register Foundation.”

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
