“On the basis of the cash flow projections the Board of Directors believe the current forecasts with all modelled sensitivities indicate sufficient headroom against the available covenant tests whilst providing optionality for the Group to continue its investment to enable further growth. Consequently, the directors are confident that the company and group will have sufficient funds to continue to meet its liabilities as they fall due for at least twelve months from the date of approval of the financial statements and consequently have prepared the financial statements on a going concern basis.”

Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. Periods don't have to be exactly 12 months apart — a long or short period (typical around incorporation or year-end changes) will distort the comparison. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers
