“The KIS financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which the director believes to be appropriate for the following reasons. The director believes that KIS faces no significant solvency or liquidity risks in the foreseeable future due to sufficient cash reserves. Korea Investment & Securities Co. Ltd., the company's immediate parent undertaking, has no intention to discontinue the operation of KIS and will maintain its financial support for KIS for at least 12 months from the date of signing 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
