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 financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. The Company continues to have a significant surplus of working and regulatory capital, even under stress scenario conditions and, as the sole shareholder, the parent entity has confirmed it is comfortable with the Company's financial position and progress on business activities to date, particularly given the challenging market environment over the past few years, and supports the Company's plans going forward which show it is expected to remain profitable in 2026.”
