Going concern

Affirmed

“The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, as the directors believe that the Company will continue to meet its liabilities as they fall due for a period of at least 12 months from the date of approval of the financial statements. In assessing the appropriateness of the going concern basis of preparation the Directors have taken into account the key risks to the business, including the ongoing domestic and global economic uncertainty. In doing so the Directors have considered the Company's business model and availability of cash resources and cite that the Company has been profitable and remains in a healthy net asset position. Although sales may fluctuate, the Company is well positioned and has the financial support of its parent if required. The directors therefore consider it appropriate to prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis.”

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
