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
“The company has prepared the financial statements on a going concern basis. The directors believe it is reasonable to assume that the company will have adequate resources for a period 12 months (the "Assessment period") from the date of approval of these financial statements, to discharge its obligations as they fall due. In reaching their conclusion the directors have considered the following. The company is forecasting operating losses and negative cash flows throughout the assessment period and therefore the company expects to need access to additional funding through the going concern period. Accordingly, the directors have received confirmation from the company's parent undertaking, Telefónica Tech UK & Ireland Limited (TTUK&I), that it will provide financial support to enable the company to meet its liabilities as they fall due for at least 12 months from the date of approval of these financial statements.”
Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers
