Going concern
Affirmed

“The consolidated financial statements of both the Group and Company have been prepared on a going concern basis. After reviewing the Group and Company's performance projections, the Directors have a reasonable expectation that the Group and Company have adequate access to resources. During 2024 the Company's parent executed a new shareholder agreement which subject to certain approvals will result in a change of control with ARC Guernsey, part of a $2.8 billion fund management group, committing to support the business. The shareholders have agreed to provide financial support not less than 12 months from the date of signing these financial statements.”

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
