Overview
The company achieved turnover of £1,012,439 in 2025, an increase of 9.50% compared to 2024 (£924,626). This growth was driven by a rise in demand for our core services, including accounting and tax advisory services, as well as a notable increase in software services, which contributed £100,270 to the turnover (2024: £77,645).
The gross profit margin increased significantly from 50.95% in 2024 to 61.26% in 2025, reflecting tighter cost control and improved operational efficiencies, while administrative expenses decreased by 0.97%, contributing to the strong operating profit. This performance was supported by a number of staffing changes implemented during the year, including at senior level, which provided an opportunity to strengthen the organisational structure and enhance overall efficiency and alignment.

Principal Risks and Uncertainties
The company faces several risks, including:
- Regulatory Changes: Changes in tax laws or financial regulations could impact our advisory services. We mitigate this by staying updated and adjusting services accordingly.
- Economic Downturn: A slowdown in the economy could affect clients' demand for accounting and tax services. To manage this, we have diversified our service offerings and focused on long-term client relationships.
- Technology Risks: As we continue to grow our software services, there is an inherent risk related to IT security and data privacy. We address this by investing in robust cybersecurity measures and regularly reviewing compliance with data protection laws.
Future Outlook
The outlook for 2026 remains positive. We anticipate steady growth in demand for accounting services, particularly from SMEs, especially in light of the MTD reforms and the additional compliance burden these will place on small businesses. The continued growth in our client numbers supports us in our growth targets.
Employee Engagement and Development
The company places high importance on the development of its employees. In 2025, we continued to invest in our apprentices whom are all on approved professional training programmes whilst also ensuring our experienced staff remain up to date with CPD programmes focussed on new tax regulations and software, allowing them to remain at the cutting edge of industry knowledge.
Environmental and Social Responsibility
MJH Accountants are committed to making a positive impact not only in the financial services we provide but also in the communities we serve. We recognise that our role extends beyond accounting, and we actively contribute to environmental sustainability and social responsibility through meaningful initiatives.
Supporting Education and Careers
One of our core social initiatives is supporting the next generation of professionals. We work closely with schools and colleges' careers departments, offering students opportunities to explore the world of accounting and finance. By partnering with local educational institutions, we provide structured work experience programs designed to inspire and educate young minds about the profession.
In 2025, we welcomed 4 students for work placements, offering hands-on experience in various aspects of accounting and business operations. This initiative aims to demystify the profession, spark interest in accounting careers, and equip students with practical skills that are invaluable as they enter the workforce.
Community Engagement and Charity Work
We believe in giving back to the community and are proud of our charitable work. Our team selects a charity to support in 2 year blocks, and we are dedicated to raising funds through a range of events. In 2025 and 2026, we have selected the Brain Tumour Charity to benefit from our work and will continue to raise money for this worthy cause through a series of activities, including our headline event which is the MJH Charity Ball which is planned for September 2026.
By involving staff, clients, and local communities in these events, we aim to make a significant difference in the lives of those in need.
Environmental Responsibility
While our core operations have a limited environmental footprint, we are committed to minimising our impact wherever possible as we make further progress in reducing our carbon footprint, by limiting our use of paper and encouraging the team to minimise the use of energy.
Conclusion
Our commitment to social responsibility is deeply ingrained in our company culture. Whether it’s inspiring future accountants through educational partnerships, raising significant funds for worthy causes, or implementing environmentally responsible practices, MJH Accountants aims to make a meaningful difference. We look forward to expanding these initiatives in the coming years and continuing to support the communities and environments in which we operate.
