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 primary driver of the improved turnover and efficiency has been the successful completion of the Lochgreen extension.”
- “During the year, a property previously traded from and had lain empty, was rented out to an external party, with an option to buy. The property has therefore been transferred from land and buildings to be classified as an investment property and revalued to the option price agreed.”
