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 Company achieved a profit in the year and is in a net asset position at the year end. The directors have, at the time of approving the financial statements, a reasonable expectation that the Company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future, and for at least 12 months from the date of approval of the financial statements.”
Significant events
- “During the year The Trustees of the Scheme have become aware of a number of benefit uncertainties meaning some members may not have been receiving the correct benefit entitlements. To manage this risk the scheme actuary has estimated a potential increase in actuarial liabilities of £860k related to these benefit uncertainties and this risk has been recognised in the financial statements through other comprehensive income.”
- “The Virgin Media Ltd v NTL Pension Trustees II decision, handed down by the High Court on 16 June 2023, considered the implications of section 37 of the Pension Schemes Act 1993. In a judgement delivered on 25 July 2024, the Court of Appeal unanimously upheld the decision of the High Court. The case has the potential to cause significant issues in the pension industry.”
