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 group therefore continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing its financial statements. A letter of support has been issued by HCR Legal LLP to the company to confirm that it will continue to provide financial support for at least 12 months from the date of this report. The directors are therefore satisfied that the company remains a going concern for the appropriate period of assessment.”
