“After preparing integrated profit and loss and cash flow forecasts for at least one year from the date the financial statements are signed, the directors have formed a judgement that, as at the date of approving the financial statements, there is a reasonable expectation that the Company has adequate resources to continue in existence for the foreseeable future. The financial statements have accordingly been prepared on a going concern basis and do not include adjustments that would be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.”

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
