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

“The directors consider the results for the period to be satisfactory in the current economic climate.”
“The increase in turnover from the previous year has mainly been driven by work on constructions contracts, with turnover from construction contracts having increased from £28.3m to £47.7m.”
“Overall, gross profit has increased by £771k but profit before tax is down slightly to £2.92m. However, this is stated after accounting for net gains from exceptional items totalling £200k that relates to the reversal of provisions for debts that had previously provided for.”

Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers
