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

- Going concern
- Affirmed
“After making appropriate enquiries and having prepared and reviewed cash flow forecasts which take into account possible changes in trading performance, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the Company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future and for at least one period from the date of these financial statements. The forecasts are dependent on the future support of Vivera Topholding BV in both not seeking repayment of amounts currently due to the shareholder, as well as providing additional financial support during the period. Vivera Topholding BV has indicated its intention to continue to provide this support, as included in the forecasts. As with any company placing reliance on other group entities for financial support, the directors acknowledge that there can be no certainty that this support will continue indefinitely, however, at date of approval of these accounts, they have no reason to believe that it will not do so. Consequently, the directors are confident that the company will have sufficient funds to continue to meet its liabilities as they fall due for at least 12 months from the date of approval of these financial statements and therefore have prepared the financial statements on the going concern basis.”
Significant events

- “Vivera Topholding B.V. has acquired The Vegetarian Butcher post year end. The binding offer is subject to the usual closing conditions, regulatory requirements, and consultation processes. Completion is expected by quarter 3 in 2025.”
