“Despite the continued disruption of the global economy due to the Russian invasion in Ukraine, and the significant level of uncertainty created by the raw material crises, we showed that the impact of the Russian invasion in Ukraine doesn't have a material adverse effect on the financial condition or liquidity of Interface Europe Limited in 2023. We believe that this also holds true for 2024. Therefore, we continue to believe that the accounting principles can be maintained on a going concern base. The principles of valuation and determination of results used in these financial statements are therefore based on the assumptions of continuity of the company.”

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
