“The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which the directors consider to be appropriate for a period of at least 12 months following the date of signing these financial statements.”
Significant events
- “Turnover has increased 11% to $20,753,325 from $18,658,201 in the prior year. The directors anticipate another year of growth in 2025.”
- “Operating profit has decreased from $1,401,293 to $783,085, primarily due to the impact of the weakening GBP and increased rates costs. We expect this negative trend to turnaround in 2025 as global markets stabilize and the GBP strengthens against the US dollar.”

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
