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

Significant events
- “Ongoing changes in local legislation have posed significant challenges to our operations. Restrictions related to sanitary and veterinary regulations have resulted in substantial turnover losses throughout the fiscal year. Additionally, increased customs clearance costs have had a considerable negative impact on the company's financial performance. Given the unpredictable nature of the legislative environment particularly concerning imports we consider regulatory changes to be a substantial ongoing risk.”
