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
“At the time of approving the financial statements, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. The Company's forecasts and projections, taking account of reasonable, possible changes in trading performance, suggest the company is expected to continue to be profitable, cash generative and to have a sufficient level of financial resources. In particular, at the year end the Company had cash at bank of £895,000 and net assets of £3.7million. Accordingly, the directors continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.”
Significant events
