“The Board has reviewed its financial forecasts and considered the availability of cash reserves and headroom over banking covenants. As part of this review the Board has assessed a number of financial scenarios, and combinations thereof, that last for a period of at least 12 months from the date that the financial statements have been signed. In addition to these scenarios, the Board has also considered the impact of climate change risk and whether there are any further internal or external factors that could have a significant impact on the financial performance and position of the business. The Directors conclude that there is a reasonable prospect that the business will continue to be a going concern for the foreseeable future. Having considered the above and the detailed projections of the Group, the Directors of Cory Barking Operations Limited have concluded that the business has adequate resources to continue in operation for the foreseeable future.”
