  • Absent is not zero. A figure shown as Not reported was not given in the accounts we hold. Small and micro companies do not have to file a profit and loss account, so turnover and profit are usually absent for them.
  • The 2016 row is partial: accounts filed before October 2016 are not in our set.
  • Accounts for years ending in 2025 and 2026 are still being filed, so the newest years may be missing.
  • * This filing does not give total assets less current liabilities, so the figure shown is fixed assets.
  • Employees, cash and net assets are shown as Not shown when the filed figure is not possible (for example a negative headcount or negative cash).
Definitions
Total assets less current liabilities
Fixed assets plus current assets, minus what the company owes within a year. It is not total assets: cash can be larger than this figure when the company owes a lot in the short term. Where a filing does not give it, the table marks the fixed-assets figure used instead.
Net assets
What the company owns minus everything it owes. Also called shareholders' funds.
Turnover
Sales for the year. Only larger companies report it.
Accounts
The accounting framework named in the filing (for example FRS 102). Not stated means the filing does not say.

Loading the group structure…

Built from the corporate people with significant control records matched to UK companies (Companies House, Open Government Licence v3.0; ownership graph of 19 September 2026). Control is shown as the nature of control the controller declared; the group count includes only active majority holdings (more than 50%), so holdings of 25-50% are drawn but not counted. Overseas parents that are not on the UK register appear only when a company names them.
