Affirmed

“Taking into account the position of the ultimate parent and their future plans as detailed in the Strategic Report, the directors are of the view, to the best of their current knowledge, that the Company has access to sufficient cash resources to continue as a going concern. Accordingly, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.”

Year-on-year

FY2023 → FY2024 · period ending 2024-06-30 vs 2023-06-30

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
