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 directors have reviewed the going concern status of the Company by considering the ability of the Company to meet its obligations as they fall due for a period of at least 12 months from the date of this report. In performing this assessment, the directors have taken into account the cash balance and amounts owed to and by Group undertakings as at 30 September 2025, the anticipated level of income and the continued availability of funding from Group companies. Based on this review, the directors have concluded that the going concern basis should be adopted in preparing the financial statements.”
