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 prepared integrated forecasts which show that additional funding is required within the next 12 months in order to support the continuing current and future business development. The Directors have no reason to believe the funding will not be made available but in the absence of formal agreements there can be no certainty on the availability, timing or quantum of this funding as at the date of approval of these financial statements. The directors believe that the financial statements have been prepared appropriately on the going concern basis.”

Significant events
- “During the year, the company received £100,000 under an Advanced Subscription Agreement (ASA) from an investor. Under the terms of the ASA, the funds will convert into equity at a future funding round, at a price determined at that time. The number of shares to be issued will be variable, based on the valuation and share price of that round. The ASA does not carry any interest and is non-repayable in cash. However, as the number of shares to be issued is variable, the agreement does not meet the definition of equity under FRS 102 Section 22. As such, it has been classified as a financial liability on the statement of financial position at the reporting date. Conversion into equity is expected to take place by the longstop date of 31 December 2025 as specified in the ASA agreement.”
