“During the year being presented in these financial statements, the Company reported a profit after taxation of £3,776,078 (2023: £2,312,092) and as at 31 December 2024, the Company had net current assets of £30,468,417 (2023: £28,298,424) and net assets of £28,385,381 (2023: £24,609,303), including £8,104,438 (2023: £7,335,650) of cash at bank and in hand. As a consequence, the directors believe that the Company is well placed to manage its business risks. Axon Public Safety UK Limited has a transfer pricing agreement in place with the ultimate parent company, Axon Enterprise, Inc., that ensures the Company achieves an operating profit margin percentage that is deemed appropriate for the distribution of hardware and software and R&D activities performed by the Company. As such, the Company has obtained written support from its ultimate parent company, Axon Enterprise, Inc., that they will provide necessary support to the Company for a period of at least 12 months from the date of issuance of these financial statements. As such, the directors have determined that the Company has adequate resources for the foreseeable future and thus continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.”
Significant events
- “Turnover has increased by 70% from the previous year. During the year, the Company entered into new contracts for the Taser X2 and body-worn cameras, which led to higher revenue from the sale of goods.”

- “The Company has implemented several initiatives to support its carbon reduction goals and contribute to a cleaner future.”
- “the Company is transforming its fleet by replacing four vehicles with electric alternatives, effectively reducing emissions associated with transportation.”
- “the Company has successfully eliminated the use of gas at its Daventry site”

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
