Going concern
Affirmed

“The Company considers the going concern basis appropriate for the preparation of the financial statements. In assessing the use of the going concern assumption the directors have reviewed profit and loss and cash flow forecasts for the period covering 12 months from signing. These do not indicate any concerns regarding the liquidity of the Company.”

Year-on-year

FY2024 → FY2025 · period ending 2025-07-31 vs 2024-07-31

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
