However, its profitability has stalled: net assets have moved barely 3% since FY2022, cash has halved since FY2021, tax losses are being carried forward, and the directors concede disappointment with the result — a profile consistent with a sub-scale operator unable to pass through energy and aluminium cost inflation on fixed-price OEM contracts. The strategic priority is converting balance-sheet strength into margin recovery and scale, whether through programme wins in aerospace/medical, pricing renegotiation, or acquisitive consolidation of exiting UK capacity.","website":"http://www.norfran.co.uk","links":{"page":"https://www.companiesintheuk.co.uk/ltd/norfran","people":"https://www.companiesintheuk.co.uk/company/norfran/people","filing_history":"https://www.companiesintheuk.co.uk/company/norfran/filing-history","companies_house":"https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/SC361880","financials":"https://www.companiesintheuk.co.uk/company/norfran/financial","control":"https://www.companiesintheuk.co.uk/company/norfran/control","charges":"https://www.companiesintheuk.co.uk/company/norfran/charges","ai_analysis":"https://www.companiesintheuk.co.uk/company/norfran/analysis"},"source":"CompaniesInTheUK, from Companies House, The Gazette and other public registers (see /support/about).
