- Affirmed
“Notwithstanding the net liabilities position of £34.7m shown in the statement of financial position, (see page 18) the company can meet its day-to-day working capital requirements through its bank balance and through the funding facility as discussed on page 5. The company is funded by, and has an undertaking from, Hilton Grand Vacations Inc., to provide support as necessary to fund the company's operations for a period of at least 12 months from the date of signing of the financial statements. The company's forecasts and projections, taking account of reasonably possible changes in trading performance, show that the company is likely to generate and obtain sufficient cash resources in the next 12 months. In addition, due to financial resources made available in accordance with a letter of support from Hilton Grand Vacations Inc., the company should be able to meet its obligations when they fall due for a period of at least 12 months from the date these financial statements are approved, and the directors are not aware of any uncertainties which could have a material impact on the company as a going concern.”

Significant events
- “On 1 March 2024, at the request of the directors, the company reached an agreement to complete a deed of termination and financial settlement with a third party to exit the timeshare business in Malta.”
- “The effective date of termination is 31 December 2024, and both parties agreed a settlement of £1,025,000 payable by the company on the publication of the deed of termination. The settlement expense was recharged to the reserves of the holiday ownership points club, in recognition of the timeshare accommodation in Malta being a points club destination and used by its members.”
- “Contemporaneously, the company agreed to separately renew the resort management agreement with another third party for a period of one year, ending 31 December 2024, to facilitate the principal activity of the Malta branch up to the termination date. Following the termination date, the activities of the Malta branch will cease, and the directors have no current plans to pursue alternative trading operations in Malta.”

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
