Material uncertainty over going concern
The Mars Transaction indicates a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern, as future operations and financing under new ownership are unknown. Despite this, directors are satisfied that the going concern basis remains appropriate.

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
