Money taken from sales in the year, before any costs.
Profit before tax
What was left after the year’s costs, before corporation tax. A minus figure is a loss.
Net assets, or total equity

Total assets and total liabilities
Everything the company owns, and everything it owes, on the last day of the year. The gap between them is its net assets.

Owed within a year, owed after a year
Debts and bills due in the next twelve months, and those due later.

The figures for the year to 29 February 2020 were read from the printed accounts, because the filing does not tag them in a form that can be read automatically. They were checked against the accounts’ own totals.

These are group figures: the firm and the companies it owns, combined.

Accounts filed at Companies House for company 02219814. Every figure is as filed, apart from total assets and total liabilities, which are added up from filed figures. Nothing is estimated.
