A good question.

a company doesn't pay a yield, it pays a dividend - the yield is dividend/price - the market determines the price, and thus the yield

The Yahoo calculation is based on the last dividend payments - the dividend has been axed since then, and the share price has lost some 95%.

ETA - it's always a good idea to read previous years' annual reports and recent RNSs; Yahoo and Digitallook and similar sources are not 100% accurate and can be very misleading.
