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 Directors have been able to form a reasonable expectation that the Company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason, they adopt the going concern basis in preparing the accounts.”
Significant events
- “Given the significant change in size of the company since December 2023, DABS UK is still adjusting to its new scope and strategy to serve its customers. 2024 showed encouraging metrics when human and equipment resources are available, and management expects this trend to continue in 2025.”
