“On the basis of their assessment of the Company's financial position and having received a letter of support from Traton Financial Services AB, (the Company participates in the Group's centralised treasury arrangements and so shares banking arrangements with Traton and its fellow subsidiaries) the Company's directors have a reasonable expectation that the Company will be able to continue in its operational existence until 31 December 2026. Thus, they continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.”

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
