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

- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“At the time of approving the financial statements, despite the net liability position, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. This expectation is supported by a formal letter of support from the parent company, confirming its intention to provide financial assistance as necessary. Accordingly, the directors continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.”
