Affirmed

“The Directors have considered financial prospects over ARAG UK's planning horizon of the next three years, and the key areas of uncertainty affecting those projections. They concluded that it was reasonable to expect the Company to remain in business for a period of 12 months from the date of signing of the Financial Statements.”

Year-on-year

FY2023 → FY2024 · period ending 2024-12-31 vs 2023-12-31

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
