Audit opinion

Going concern

Affirmed

“The financial statements have been prepared under the assumption that the Company operates on a going concern basis. It is the directors view, to the best of their current knowledge, that the ongoing wars between the Ukraine and Russia and between Israel and Hamas will not have a material adverse impact on the company's ability to continue as a going concern. The directors believe that on this basis, the Company will have sufficient cash flow to meet its liabilities as they fall due for a minimum period of 12 months from the date of approval of the financial statements and therefore continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing its financial statements.”

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
