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
“At the time of approving the financial statements the directors have a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue to operate for at least 12 months from the date of approval and thus the directors continue to adopt a going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of these financial statements.”
Significant events
- “During the previous financial year the directors implemented programmes to improve efficiency and cost cutting and these have resulted in a profit before tax of £992,782. The directors are hopeful that these programmes, along with customer gains, will yield further improvements.”
