Going concern
Affirmed

“The company's forecasts and projections taking into account possible changes in trading performance, show that the company should be able to operate within the level of its current facilities. The directors therefore have a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue its operational existence for the foreseeable future. The company therefore continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.”

Year-on-year

FY2023 → FY2024 · period ending 2024-12-31 vs 2023-12-31

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
