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

- Going concern
- Affirmed
“After making enquiries, including obtaining a letter of support from the ultimate parent entity Applied Systems Inc, and carrying out a review of projected funding over the next 12 months, taking account of reasonably possible changes in trading performance, the matters disclosed in Events since the balance sheet date in the Strategic Report, the Directors have a reasonable expectation that the Company has access to adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the annual financial statements.”
