Affirmed

“The company made a profit before taxation for the year of £682,435 (2023: £342,502) and as at the balance sheet date had net assets of £1,645,917 (2023: £1,204,806). The company has assessed risks and their potential impact on the business and appropriate measures were taken to mitigate such risks and their impact, and it has sufficient cash reserves for the short term. As a result the directors are confident that they have the ability to respond effectively to continued uncertainty and as a result, the directors believe that the company will be able to continue to meet its liabilities they fall due for a period of at least twelve months from the date of approval of 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
