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 directors consider that the going concern assumption upon which these financial statements have been prepared continues to be appropriate, based on the ongoing financial and operational support from the intermediate parent company, Kantar Group Holdings Ltd. Forecasts and cash flow projections have been prepared by the Group, covering a period of at least 12 months from the date of signing these financial statements. These demonstrate that the Group has sufficient liquidity and funding to enable the Company to meet its obligations as they fall due.”
