- Going concern
- Affirmed
“These accounts are prepared on a going concern basis. The Company has sufficient financial resources and contracts with a number of customers across different geographic areas. As a consequence, the directors believe the Company is well placed to manage its business risks successfully.. The directors have prepared cash flow forecasts and performed a going concern assessment which indicates that, in both the base and reasonably possible downsides, the Company will have sufficient funds to meet its liabilities as the fall due during the 12-month period from signing the financial statements, the going concern assessment period. Consequently, the directors are confident that the Company will have sufficient funds to continue to meet its liabilities as they fall due for at least 12 months from the date of signing of the financial statements and therefore have prepared the financial statements on a 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
