What do Dyson Limited’s FY2024 accounts tell us about operating profitability and short-term liquidity?
A worked output, not an empty template.
Follow the result from the legal entity and reporting basis through statements, calculations, observations and source evidence. The default public-company example shows five annual periods; switch to the prepared private-company example to inspect a narrower filing-based snapshot.
Six controls to test in a company report.
Use the same checks on this sample and on a representative company from your own workflow. A polished conclusion is not reviewable if its entity, basis or evidence is unclear.
- 01
Entity
Legal name, jurisdiction and identifier refer to the intended company—not only a brand or group name.
- 02
Reporting basis
Period end, duration, currency, units and individual or consolidated scope stay beside the figures.
- 03
Financial coverage
Available statements, years and fields are visible; absent records remain marked as unavailable.
- 04
Value status
Reported amounts are distinguishable from calculated ratios, transformations and narrative interpretation.
- 05
Evidence
Source context and document links make material figures inspectable where the underlying record is available.
- 06
Decision boundary
The conclusion states what the records support, what they do not establish and which evidence is needed next.
Read the report at the level the evidence supports.
This sample can show
- How reported statements and calculated indicators appear together
- How periods, currency, units and accounting scope remain visible
- How sources, downloads and monitoring paths fit the workflow
This sample cannot establish
- That every company has the same fields, years or source documents
- Current trading, payment capacity or creditworthiness from historical accounts alone
- A complete audit, valuation, transaction review or investment conclusion

Key observations
Detailed findings from the financial statements above.
A profitable operating period, with a limited view of liquidity
Dyson Limited reported £305.0m revenue and £7.5m operating profit for the year ended 31 December 2024. The operating margin calculated from those figures is 2.46%. Current assets exceeded current liabilities by £31.2m at the reporting date.
These figures describe Dyson Limited, company number 02627406, on an individual-company basis. They should not be read as worldwide Dyson group revenue or as a view of current trading.
The financial snapshot
| Measure | FY2024 / year-end | How to read it |
|---|---|---|
| Revenue | £305.0m | Sales for this reporting entity and period |
| Operating profit | £7.5m | Profit from operations before financing and tax |
| Operating margin | 2.46% | Calculated: £7.5m ÷ £305.0m × 100 |
| Current assets | £201.6m | Assets classified as current at year-end |
| Current liabilities | £170.4m | Liabilities classified as current at year-end |
| Working capital | £31.2m | Calculated: £201.6m − £170.4m |
| Current ratio | 1.18× | Calculated: £201.6m ÷ £170.4m |
What the figures support
The company generated a positive operating profit in the reported period. An operating margin of 2.46% means approximately £2.46 of operating profit for every £100 of revenue, using the rounded figures shown here.
The current ratio indicates about £1.18 of current assets for each £1 of current liabilities at year-end. It does not establish how quickly receivables will turn into cash, whether inventory can be realised at carrying value or when individual liabilities fall due.
What needs a closer look
- Cash conversion: examine operating cash flow and movements in receivables and inventory. A positive working-capital balance is not the same as cash in the bank.
- Related-party balances: check notes for amounts owed to or by group companies. Those balances can affect how the standalone position is interpreted.
- Change over time: this snapshot does not establish a trend. Compare consistent prior periods before describing improvement or deterioration.
- Subsequent trading: year-end 2024 accounts are historical. Obtain more recent evidence before assessing present payment capacity.
Source and reporting context
Companies House lists full accounts for the period ended 31 December 2024, filed 3 October 2025, in a 48-page document. Open the filed accounts or view the company’s filing history.
The figures in this worked example use GBP millions and the individual company’s accounts. Calculated ratios use the displayed, rounded inputs. The filing reference was checked on 14 September 2026. This is a prepared sample, not a live query, and it uses selected figures rather than reproducing the complete accounts.
A useful next research question
“Compare Dyson Limited’s operating cash flow, receivables and current liabilities across the available reporting periods. Identify related-party balances and explain any missing information.”
This sample supports financial research. It is not a credit rating, investment recommendation or substitute for a full due-diligence review.

- A valid review date today or earlier (UTC), intended use and decision owner are required for a complete record.
- Confirmed controls require a report section or evidence reference.
- Not-applicable controls require a rationale tied to the stated use.
- Partial support or an evidence gap requires an action, owner and due date.
- The worksheet records process completion only. It does not judge materiality, evidence quality, creditworthiness or fitness for a different use.

Questions to answer before using the output.
01What is included in this sample financial analysis report?
The default example includes company identity, five annual reporting periods, income-statement, balance-sheet and cash-flow fields, selected calculated indicators, narrative observations, reporting context, source references and downloads.
02Are the figures in the sample report real?
The default Microsoft example uses reported amounts transcribed from Microsoft annual reports for FY2021 to FY2025. The Dyson example uses selected figures from Dyson Limited’s filed FY2024 accounts. Each example identifies its entity, period, currency, units and accounting scope.
03Can I inspect a private-company report example?
Yes. The Dyson Limited example shows a selected private-company financial snapshot for UK company 02627406 on an individual-company basis. It is not a worldwide Dyson group report.
04How is a financial analysis report different from financial statements?
Financial statements provide the reported accounting lines and notes. A financial analysis report organises selected records around a question, adds calculations and observations, and retains the reporting basis and evidence needed to review the result.
05Which values are reported and which are calculated?
Reported values retain their source context. Calculated outputs identify their formula or basis, such as operating margin, current ratio or free cash flow. Missing values remain unavailable rather than being replaced with zero.
06Can I download the sample financial report?
Yes. The Download control at the end of the report offers PDF, Excel, CSV and JSON formats. Exported figures retain the reporting context supplied with the sample.
07Does the report include source evidence?
Yes. Source links and reporting notes appear with the financial record and in the evidence section. A source link supports review of the underlying record; it does not make every field or period available.
08Can this sample be used to compare companies?
Use the sample to evaluate the output format first. A valid company comparison also requires compatible legal entities, periods, duration, currency, units, accounting scope and measure definitions.
09Is this a credit rating or a complete due-diligence report?
No. The sample is a prepared financial research report. It is not a credit rating, audit, investment recommendation or substitute for complete financial, legal, tax and commercial due diligence.
10How do I create a report for another company?
Start a Veripoint company-research question using the legal name, jurisdiction and registration number where available. Review the returned entity, periods, sources and gaps before downloading the report or adding an eligible company to monitoring.
