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

“After reviewing the company's forecasts and projections, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. The company therefore continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing its financial statements.”
Significant events
- “At 30 June 2025 the company had commitments under a non-cancellable operating lease for land and buildings. The lease is due to expire in 473 years. The commitment is dependent upon the amount of rent received from a sub-tenant, being £5,000 per annum plus one-quarter of the net rents received. As the rents received are variable, it is not possible to exactly quantify the commitment. In the current 12 month period this amounted to £183,349 (2024: £32,489).”
Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers
