Going concern

“Taking into consideration the current year's financial results, available cash resources and forecasts for the going concern assessment period (being the period ending 31 December 2026), the directors are satisfied that the company has adequate resources to continue in operations for the foreseeable future (being a period of at least 12 months from the date of approving the 2024 financial statements). As such the directors believe that the going concern assumption is appropriate.”

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
