- Affirmed
“The directors have given careful consideration to these evolving situations at the date of approval of these financial statements and the related impact on the going concern basis of preparation. The directors have implemented mitigating actions to preserve cash that are within the control of the Company to ensure that the Company can continue to meet its obligations. The directors believe that sufficient financial resources are available to enable the Company to meet its obligations as they fall due, covering a period of not less than 12 months from the date of approval of the financial statements. In forming their view, the directors have taken into consideration the future financial requirements of the Company and the existing bank facilities. The directors believe that this uncertainty does not represent a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt on the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern. For this reason, the directors continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing these 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
