The company is currently assessing the financial impact and intends to submit a voluntary disclosure to HMRC, which will include the overclaimed VAT of £1,176,000 (inclusive of applicable penalties and interest). As at the reporting date, the outcome of HMRC's review and the total financial exposure remain uncertain.”

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
