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

“As of the balance sheet date, the Company is a going concern with a Solvency Ratio of 12.65 (2023 as restated: 3.94) and a Liquidity Ratio of 1.09 (2023 as restated: 5.49). The activities of the Company will be financed mainly by internally generated cash flows. The PSC has expired in April 2025, notwithstanding, the directors believe the Company is a going concern as the Batavia Oil group pursues other opportunities in the region. As such, the financial statements should be prepared on a going concern basis.”
