Affirmed

“The directors have prepared detailed cash flow forecasts which show that after considering reasonable downside scenarios, the group has sufficient funds to support their activities and meet their liabilities as they fall due based on forecasted trading levels and that the funding is held for a period of at least 12 months from the date of signing these financial statements. On the basis set out above, the directors continue to adopt the going concern basis of preparation for 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
