Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. The comparison is only shown when the latest and prior accounts cover broadly equal-length periods — short or long stubs (typical around incorporation or a year-end change) are suppressed rather than misrepresented. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers

“The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. While the outlook for the global economy remains uncertain and it is challenging to assess the full extent of potential impacts on the company's operations, customers, suppliers, and the wider market, the strength of the group's cash balances provides a solid foundation. This financial resilience gives confidence that the company is well-positioned to withstand any volatility and to continue pursuing its strategic objectives without significant disruption.”
