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. The Company is dependent on the continued operation of a recharge agreement with group companies. The director has no reason to believe that the recharge agreement will not continue for the foreseeable future, and for a period of at least 12 months from the approval of these financial statements. He has therefore deemed it appropriate to prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis.”
Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers
