“The directors have considered all other relevant risks and uncertainties and have no reason to believe that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt about the ability of the company to achieve its forecast and to continue meet its liabilities as they fall due in the period to 31 May 2026. Thus, they continue to adopt the going concern basis.”

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
