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

“The directors are confident that the existing funding facilities will provide sufficient headroom to meet forecast cash requirements having considered any additional requirements that would be contingent on a an extended downturn in activity over the same period. As such, the directors consider that it is appropriate to prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis.”
Significant events
- “Despite the uncertainty within the market, we are clear about our strategy; we will continue to grow and serve as an essential tier 1 contractor to the UK construction industry. We have and will continue to win work with an order book in excess of our expectations. We have proven during this period to be an agile resilient and highly liquid business who is in a strong position to continue to grow even in these recessionary times.”
