“The Charity meets its day-to-day working capital requirements through cash generated from operations. The Charity's forecasts and projections for the next twelve months show that the Charity should be able to continue in operational existence for that period, taking into account possible changes in their performance. Having considered the current cash forecasts of the Charity the Trustees have a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for a period of at least 12 months from the date of signing these 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
