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
- “During the current year, a risk was identified with regards to the company's previous practice of receiving surrendered tax losses from its group entities for nil consideration. Where the company is in receipt of surrendered tax losses from its fellow group entity and if that surrendering entity has insufficient distributable reserves, the surrendering company would be at risk of having received an unlawful distribution under the Companies Act 2006.”
