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

“Having taken into consideration the above, the Directors believe that it is appropriate to adopt the going concern basis of accounting. Having made due enquiries, the Directors have a reasonable expectation that the company will continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason, the Directors continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements (see Note 2).”
