“As outlined in the strategic report, the Company has an appropriate response plan in place to continue bringing the business to a profitable position. Management has taken proactive measures to ensure the Company can continue to successfully deliver products and services for the foreseeable future. The Company has substantial net assets as set out in the statement of financial position. It has sufficient resources to meet any reasonably foreseeable obligation. The directors have a reasonable expectation that the Company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future, despite the current uncertain economic outlook. Thus, the directors continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the annual report and 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
