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 Company made a profit before tax of £326,688 (2024: £297,351) for the year ended 31 December 2025 and is forecasting that the company will remain profitable in the next financial year. Due to the nature of its business activity, being a service entity for the wider group earning revenue on a cost-plus basis, the directors believe that the company will remain profitable for the foreseeable future. Therefore, the directors believe that the company will have sufficient resources to continue in operation for a period of at least 12 months from the date of approval of these financial statements, and as a result the financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis. The Company has obtained a letter of support from Gedeon Richter Plc stating they will influence the Company in a way that it will be in a position to meet all of its current and future payment obligations.”
Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers
