Going concern

Material uncertainty disclosed

“We draw attention to Note 1 "Going Concern" on pages 16-17 in the financial statements, which describes the Directors' assessment of the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. As disclosed in Note 1, the Company is dependent upon the successful completion of the proposed sale of the business, which remains subject to court approval and is therefore not yet legally binding. Furthermore, if the sale completes, there is uncertainty regarding potential changes to the business model, group structure and future funding requirements under new ownership. The financial forecasts prepared by the Directors indicate that, while the Company expects to have sufficient liquidity for at least twelve months from the date of approval of the financial statements, the failure of the proposed sale to complete could require the Company to secure additional funding and expose it to significant liquidity pressures. These events and conditions, along with other matters as set forth in note 1, indicate the existence of a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.”
