Values shown as filed in the company's annual accounts. indicates the figure wasn't present under that line item in that period. About these numbers

Year-on-year

FY2024 → FY2025 · period ending 2025-12-31 vs 2024-12-31

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

Going concern
Affirmed

“the directors are satisfied that the Company has adequate resources to meet the day-to-day operational needs of the business for at least a year from the date of approval of the financial statements and that the Company's claims paying resources are sufficient to satisfy projected claims as they fall due within this same period. Accordingly, the Company has adopted and continues to consider appropriate the going concern basis in preparing the Annual Report and Financial Statements.”
