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 company is reliant on the financial support of its parent company to continue to operate as a going concern. Based on assurances received from the parent company, the directors are satisfied that further financial support will be made available to the company for a period of at least one year from the date of approval of these financial statements and therefore the financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis.”
