- Affirmed
“As noted above, the entity is in a net current liability and net asset position as at 31 December 2024. The intermediate holding company, Grosvenor Limited, has provided the directors of the Company with a letter of support. This confirms that Grosvenor Limited intends to support the Company for a minimum of 12 months from the date of signing the financial statements, provided that the Company remains a wholly owned subsidiary of Grosvenor Limited. Grosvenor Limited intends to enable it to meet its liabilities as they fall due. The Company's liquidity is managed as part of the cash pooling arrangements with Grosvenor Limited (the 'Group'). An assessment of the Group's cash flow forecast, which includes the Company, has been undertaken for the period ending 31 December 2026. The Group is continuing to monitor the ongoing volatility in the macro-economic climate. This uncertainty is contributed to by volatility in the financial markets, particularly related to interest rates, as well as elevated geopolitical tensions. Through regular monitoring, the Group ensures that as a whole it can withstand significant economic shock. The Directors have considered the going concern assumption for the Group in light of these risks and considered the possible impact, for example on income and availability of funding, in the Group's cash flow forecasts for the period ending 31 December 2026. On the basis of this assessment and Grosvenor Limited's ongoing support for the Company, the Directors have a reasonable expectation that the Company has adequate resources for a minimum of 12 months from the date of signing the accounts. As such the Directors consider it appropriate to prepare the accounts on a going concern basis.”

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
