- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The directors have prepared the financial statements on the going concern basis as they do not intend to liquidate the company or to cease its operations, and as they have concluded that the Company's financial position means that this is realistic. They have also concluded that there are no material uncertainties that could have cast significant doubt over its ability to continue as a going concern for at least a year from the date of approval of the financial statements ("the going concern period").”
Significant events
- “Turnover for the 53 weeks ended 2 January 2025 was £12.7 million (2023: £14.1 million) with a profit before tax of £3.0 million (2023: £3.6 million).”
- “Achieved zero OHSA recordable incidents, with additional targets met for START Cards, Toolbox Talks, Safety Leadership Tours, reduced electricity usage, and minimized waste to landfill.”
- “Successfully met the specific EBITDA target, demonstrating strong financial health.”
- “Exceeded targets on-time delivery, non-conformance levels, customer compliments, and development of new business, showcasing outstanding service quality and client relationships.”
- “Completed a formal audit of practices with no compliance breaches, affirming the company's commitment to high ethical standards.”
- “Maintained robust security monitoring systems, with successful external audits confirming full compliance.”
- “The next 12 months will see ongoing involvement in new build projects and expanded support to other Group entities entering the defence sector.”

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
