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 have reviewed cash flow forecasts for a period of 2 years from the date of these financial statements which indicate, taking account of reasonably possible downsides, that the Company will have sufficient funds to meet its liabilities as they fall due for that period. In addition, the Company has received a letter of financial support from its parent company, EP UKI should it be required.”
