- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“In evaluating the company's prospects, the directors have assessed trading performance and cash flow projections spanning a two-year forecast period. This assessment includes stress testing of cash flows and an analysis of potential cash requirements and financing facilities that may be required. ... Based on these assessments and after making appropriate enquiries, the directors have formed a judgment that, at the time of approving the financial statements, the group will have adequate resources to continue its operations for the foreseeable future. Consequently, it is deemed appropriate to adopt the going concern principle in the preparation of 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
