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

FY2023 → FY2024 · period ending 2024-12-31 vs 2023-12-31

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

Material uncertainty disclosed

“The financial statements have not been prepared on a going concern basis. Instead, they have been prepared on a break-up basis, reflecting the intention to realise assets and discharge liabilities other than in the normal course of business. Adjustments have been made to measure assets at their net realisable value, considering expected disposal proceeds.”
