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

- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“In assessing the appropriateness of the going concern assumption, the Directors have reviewed detailed cash flow forecasts, considering all reasonably foreseeable potential scenarios and material uncertainties in relation to income and costs. Based on these cash flow forecasts the company can meet its liabilities as they fall due and the Directors have therefore concluded that there is no material uncertainty, and it is appropriate for the financial statements to be prepared on the going concern basis.”
