“After making enquiries, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the Company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for at least 12 months from the date of signing. The directors have considered the Company's forecasts and projections, taking account of reasonably possible changes in trading performance and the current economic uncertainty and are satisfied that the Company will be able to operate within the level of its current facilities. Accordingly, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements. At 31 December 2024, the Company had net assets of £734k (2023: £1,715k), and £2,802k (2023: £3,284k) in cash and cash equivalents.”

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
