Material uncertainty over going concern
Having made the decision to move the provision of corporate services to Maersk Line UK Limited effective 1 February 2023, the Company is adopting a basis other than that of a going concern basis in preparing the annual financial statements. Due to the simple nature of the Company at the balance sheet date, there is no material impact on the presentation and disclosure by preparing these financial statements on a basis other than going concern.

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
