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

- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“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. The directors consider this to be at least 1 year from the approval of the financial statements. Thus, they continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.”

Significant events
- “23rd February 2025 was the ninth anniversary since the tragic incident at Didcot A Power Station. The unpredicted catastrophic collapse which happened during the process of demolition of the boiler houses by specialist demolition contractors, led to the death of 4 people.”
- “RWE is at this stage therefore unable to speculate if and when charges will be brought and when the matter will proceed to be litigated in court. As such RWE is also unable to predict when the investigation is likely to conclude or the direction of travel as there has been a lack of substantive information given by the authorities.”
Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers
