“These accounts are prepared on a going concern basis. The directors have an expectation that the group will continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future, following an assessment of the current and future likely political and economic operating environment. Given the current levels of trading, cash reserves held by the group and access to extensive borrowing facilities, the directors believe that the going concern basis continues to be appropriate in preparing the financial statements.”

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
