  • 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.
  • These are not the latest accounts. Companies House shows total exemption full accounts made up to 31 March 2025, but the newest year we hold is 31 March 2023. Group and some other filings are not read into this table; see the filing history at Companies House (opens in a new tab).
  • The 2016 row is partial: accounts filed before October 2016 are not in our set.
  • 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.
