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

- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The Company's ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to generate its own cash inflows and is also dependent on their ultimate Group (Qoria Limited formerly known as Family Zone Cyber Safety Limited) continuing to provide ongoing committed and contractual support to the Company in respect of access to any future funding requirements where required. A letter of support has been received which indicates that the intercompany balance positions will not be called upon until the Company has the ability to do so for a period of at least 12 months from the approval of these financial statements.”
