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

In the event that the firm is unable to achieve its forecast revenues, the directors have a plan in place that will allow the business to continue to exist within its current funding arrangements.”

Significant events
- “The financial year 2024 was characterised by a moderated sales performance during the first three quarters, a trend anticipated in our previous report due to prevailing economic uncertainty. Despite this, employee numbers remained stable. The company proactively adapted its employment structure to support a broader range of workflows and to better align with evolving areas of expertise.”
