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

“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. Thus the directors continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.”

Significant events
- “This has been a traumatic period for the group as one of its subsidiary's production, stores and office buildings had a fire. This meant that the company had to restructure into the remaining building and create extra production and office areas to mitigate the situation as much as possible. Storage transferred to external off-site warehousing and onsite container storage. However, a new building has now been secured which will allow us to increase production demand.”
Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers
