AI-generated analysis · figures computed, not written AI-generated analysis of the filings uploaded for this study. It is a screening analysis of accounting quality, manipulation and fraud risk: it detects the signs; it does not prove them. It is not investment, credit, audit or legal advice, and it must not be used to make a decision about a natural person. The prose is machine-written; the figures under it are not.

Key findings

The closing year turns on the asset base. Inventory grew by a fifth while sales grew by six per cent, and the provision held against slow-moving parts was cut by more than two thirds in the same year ; development spending moved from the income statement to the balance sheet at the same time, capitalised at half again the charge taken to expense . Neither movement is hidden: the policy is disclosed, the useful life is stated, and the auditor names the capitalisation a key audit matter and leaves the opinion unmodified . Collections are the second thread. Receivable days lengthened by fifteen days after the change of distributor , and the allowance held against the balance sits at the floor of the peer population in every computed year Provision rate on receivables sits at the peer floor in every computed year. The third is presentation rather than measurement: contract acquisition costs moved from operating to investing cash flows with the prior year re-presented , which improves reported operating cash without touching the result. Against all of that, cash generated by operations covers reported profit in each of the five years Operating cash covers reported profit in every year, which is what argues for aggressive but disclosed choices rather than a result the collections do not support.

Verdict

Accounting risk is elevated in the closing year and has risen in each of the last three. The movement rests on a cluster of readings rather than one dominant indicator: inventory growing ahead of sales, a falling provision rate, and development spending moving from expense to the balance sheet. Cash generation stays consistent with reported profit, which argues against outright manipulation and for aggressive but disclosed choices.
