Going concern
Affirmed

“The Group expects to continue to generate cash, and is expected to do so for at least 12 months from the date of approval of these financial statements based upon the forecasts that have been approved by the Board. Accordingly, the Directors believe that it is more than appropriate to continue to prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis.”

Year-on-year

FY2024 → FY2025 · period ending 2025-03-31 vs 2024-03-31

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
