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

“The statement of financial position shows net current assets of USD462.9 million (2024: USD409.1 million) and it is not anticipated that the Company will incur losses in future years based on its existing transfer pricing structure. The Company meets its day-to-day working capital requirements by way of advances from group companies. The ultimate parent, Workday, Inc., has confirmed that it will provide financial support to the Company, as required, for a period of no less than twelve months from the date of approval of the financial statements. On the basis of this information, the directors consider that it is appropriate to prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis.”
