Capital Com (UK) Limited’s 54% revenue decline in 2025 looks like a contraction until the entity boundary is reconstructed. Average monthly headcount fell from 116 to 30, a reduction of 86 people or 74.1%, after the group transferred employees and operating activities to a separate service company.
