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

Margins divide P&L lines by turnover. Gearing is liabilities over total assets. Current ratio is current assets over creditors falling due within one year. Interest cover is operating profit over absolute finance costs. Sector-distribution context coming next.

Going concern

Affirmed

“Since the Company is loss-making and in a net liability position, the Company requires financial support from CBL as and when required. The Company has received confirmation from CBL that it will provide the necessary financial support to the Company to meet its liabilities as they fall due. Such support will be provided for a period of not less than 12 months from the date of approval of these financial statements. In conclusion, the directors have determined that there is no material uncertainty that casts doubt over the Company's ability to continue as a going concern for the next twelve months from the date of the approval of these financial statements.”
