Material uncertainty over going concern
These conditions indicate the existence of a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt on the Group's ability to continue as a going concern. Nevertheless, having considered the Group's funding history, the level of engagement with existing and potential capital providers, and the actions available to it, the Directors have a reasonable expectation that the Group will be able to secure appropriate funding as required. In addition, the Directors remain prepared to take such steps as they consider necessary and appropriate to preserve liquidity, strengthen the balance sheet, and support the continued operation of the business. On this basis, the Directors believe that the Group will have adequate resources to continue in operational existence for at least twelve months from the date of approval of these financial statements, and accordingly the financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis.

Ratios
Computed from the line items above — sparklines read oldest → newest
| Ratio | Trend | 2024-03-31 | 2025-09-30 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Operating margin | -159.9% | — | |
| Net margin | -176.6% | — | |
| Return on capital employed | -74.9% | -396.7% | |
| Gearing (liabilities / total assets) | 51.2% | 157.7% | |
| Current ratio | 3.30x | 0.87x | |
| Interest cover | -8.09x | -11.23x |
Margins divide P&L lines by turnover. Gearing is liabilities over total assets. Current ratio is current assets over creditors falling due within one year. Interest cover is operating profit over absolute finance costs. Margin ratios are hidden where reported turnover is too small relative to profit to yield a meaningful figure — typical of holding companies whose income is mostly subsidiary dividends rather than trading revenue. Sector-distribution context coming next.
