“The Board remains optimistic that the business is still well placed to deliver again and is confident of the longer-term prospects for the company. The management team continue to explore further opportunities including embracing technology to help in the evolution of the business model. The focus on further operational efficiencies will help mitigate upcoming increasing challenges from Treasury decisions around labour, business rates and the general lack of additional supporting measures from the Government to assist hospitality businesses. On this basis, the Board believes that the business will remain trading for a period of at least 12 months from the date of signing of these financial statements. These financial statements have therefore been prepared on the going concern basis.”
Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers

Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. Periods don't have to be exactly 12 months apart — a long or short period (typical around incorporation or year-end changes) will distort the comparison. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers
