Values shown as filed in the company's annual accounts. indicates the figure wasn't present under that line item in that period. About these numbers

Year-on-year

FY2022 → FY2023 · period ending 2023-12-31 vs 2022-12-31

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

“These financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes the Company will continue to be able to meet their liabilities as they fall due, within 12 months of the date of approval of these financial statements. The parent company, TechTarget, Inc., will provide all financial support needed for a period of at least 12 months from the signing of the statutory accounts in order to allow BrightTALK Ltd to continue to operate. On the basis of the parent company support and their assessment of the Company's financial position, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the Company will be able to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. The directors therefore believe that it remains appropriate to prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis.”
