Audit opinion

Unqualified (clean)

Going concern

Affirmed

“The directors consider that the application of going concern is appropriate having regard to confirmation of shareholder support received and the fact that the company operates in the wider context of the entities detailed in note 19. The directors perform an annual review of the entity's ability to continue to operate as a going concern, taking into account expected cashflows and the ability to source funding from other group companies, controlling parties and external parties. On this basis the directors consider it appropriate to adopt the 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
