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

- Affirmed
“The Group Balance Sheet discloses net liabilities. Not withstanding the net liabilities, the financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis which assumes the company will continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. The company relies on the continued support of Mr Hussain AlSaeed for its day to day funding and funds its working capital through a facility provided by Dwane Sports Limited, a company owned by Mr Hussain AlSaeed, that is not repayable within 12 months from these accounts. Mr Hussain AlSaeed has confirmed his intention to maintain support for a period of at least twelve months from the signing of these accounts. On the basis above the directors consider it appropriate to prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis.”
