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
“In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the group's and the parent company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.”

Significant events
- “A major contributor to this growth was the highly successful reopening of the Royal Mile Tavern following its comprehensive refurbishment after fire damage-an investment that has been very well received by customers.”
- “The slight reduction in reported operating profit reflects planned investment in rents and enhanced live entertainment, together with a prudent one-off impairment of £272,516 relating to capitalised design and feasibility costs for the cancelled Cowgate project.”
Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers
