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

- Affirmed
“The directors have undertaken a review of the future prospects of the group taking into account its current position and principal risks. This review considered both the group's prospects and also its ability to continue in operation and to meet its liabilities and other financial commitments as they fall due over the 12 months period following approval of these financial statements. The review also considered the potential impacts of volatility on market prices on the sector in which the group operates and also on the group itself. Based on this review which identified various mitigation strategies and included stress-tested financial forecasts and projections, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the group and the company have adequate resources and support to continue in operation for at least 12 months from the date of approval of these financial statements.”
