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. This assumes that the company will continue in operational existence for at least twelve months from the date these financial statements are approved. The directors are not aware of any risks relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the company's ability to continue as a going concern, and there is a reasonable expectation that the company will have adequate resources to continue in operational existence for at least the next twelve months. Accordingly, the going concern basis has been adopted in preparing the financial statements.”
Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers
