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 balance sheet as at 31 December 2024 shows a net current liability position of £7,864,244 (2023: £6,292,942) and a deficit in shareholders funds of £1,128,045 (2023: surplus £109,081). The Company continues to meet its day to day working capital requirements through operating cash flows and finances all significant refurbishments via bank finance. The Company is also able to draw on the support of the franchisor to assist with cashflow requirements as required. Having considered all the relevant facts the Directors consider it is appropriate to prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis.”
