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
“At the time of approving the financial statements, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the Company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Furthermore, the directors have prepared detailed cash flow forecasts which extend at least 12 months from the date of signing these financial statements. The directors have applied a severe but plausible stress test to these forecasts which demonstrate they maintain sufficient funds to discharge their liabilities under this severe scenario. For these reasons, the directors continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.”
