- Affirmed
“The financial statements are drawn up on the going concern basis, which assumes the Group will continue in operational existence for at least 12 months from the date of the signing of these financial statements. No material uncertainties that cast significant doubt about the ability of the Group to continue as a going concern have been identified by the Council Members. Thus, they continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the annual financial statements.”

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
