“At the end of the year, the Company had net cash balances of £33.2m (2024: £17.0m), net of borrowings of £Nil (2024: £Nil). The Company's internal budgets and forecasts, which incorporate all reasonably foreseeable changes in trading performance, show that it will be able to operate within its current banking facilities, taking into account available cash balances for the foreseeable future. The going concern basis is, accordingly, adopted by the Board in preparing the financial statements.”

Significant events
- “During the year, the Company implemented a series of cost management measures in response to softer-than-expected demand across several key markets. As part of this strategic response, and following a process of collective consultation at our Belfast site, the business made the difficult decision to reduce headcount, including a limited number of compulsory redundancies. At the Belfast site, 33 redundancies were made during the financial year, of which 24 were compulsory. Following the year end, a further 93 redundancies were implemented, including 69 in Belfast.”

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
