- Going concern
- Affirmed
“In preparing the financial statements, the Directors are required to assess the Company's ability to continue to trade as a going concern for the foreseeable future... Based on the cash flow forecasts the Directors are confident that the Company will continue as a going concern and meet its liabilities as they fall due for at least 12 months from the date of approval of these financial statements. The Company therefore continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing its financial statements.”
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. 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
