Going concern
Affirmed

“The directors have prepared the accounts on a going-concern basis, having made an assessment of the ability of the company to continue to operate and meet its obligations as they fall due for at least a period of twelve months following the signing of these accounts. This is despite there being net current liabilities, as the group companies to which the company has liabilities will seek repayment only when the company has sufficient resources, and the bank loan is due outside 12 months from the date of signing.”

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
