“The Company is currently loss-making due to fluctuations in customer demand and increases in costs. The management team is focussing its efforts on continuous improvement to reduce waste and improve the financial performance of the business. It is well placed to manage its business risks successfully. Accordingly, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resource to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Various scenarios have been forecast and the past two years of fluctuations in the global markets have provided the business with opportunities to change working practices to improve liquidity. The Directors have also obtained a letter of support from the ultimate parent company, Neo Performance Materials Inc., to confirm that if required, Neo Performance Materials Inc. will provide financial support to enable the Company to settle its liabilities as they fall due for at least 12 months from the date of signature of these financial statements through loan balances. Thus, they continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.”
Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers
