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

- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The Directors are satisfied that, at the time of approving the financial statements, it is appropriate to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements. The Company's business activities, together with the factors likely to affect its future development, performance and position are set out in the Strategic report on page 2. The Directors have a reasonable expectation that the Company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence until 31 December 2026.”

- Vodafone Services LLC 99.9993%
Significant events
- “Partner Market revenues increased for the year ended 31 March 2025 with 120% change overall for year on year. The increase in revenue largely reflects Partner Markets providing a portfolio of services to Italy and Spain following their divestment from the Vodafone Group.”
- “Brand revenue decreased 10% to €505 million for the year ended 31 March 2025 (2024: €558 million) driven by the Company no longer licensing the Vodafone brand to Spain after they left the Vodafone Group.”
- “The merger of Vodafone UK with Three UK has not presented tangible risks or uncertainties and the Company has not identified any material consequential impact on the Company.”
