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

Significant events
- “The exceptional impairment of £19.8m is recognised as a charge to the profit and loss account and relates to the investment in The Energy Solutions Group Topco Limited.”
- “During the year, SSE Energy Supply Limited acquired Aegletes III Holdco Limited, a business offering funded rooftop solar solutions for commercial customers.”
- “a subsidiary of the company, SSE Airtricity Energy Services (NI) Limited became not commercially sustainable. In March 25 the difficult decision to close the business was made. Where possible, staff were deployed to other areas of SSE but the closure resulted in 52 job losses.”
