- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The directors, having assessed future profit forecasts and the level of financial support available, where necessary, have no reason to believe that a material uncertainty exists about the ability of the company to ensure that is can continue as a going concern for a period of at least a year from the date of approval of the financial statements. Accordingly, the directors continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing 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
