- Affirmed
“The Company is expected to generate positive cash flows on its own account for the foreseeable future. The Company participates in the Instinet International Limited group's centralised treasury arrangements and so shares banking arrangements with its parent and fellow subsidiaries. Further, the Company has a Credit Facility Agreement with its ultimate Parent, therefore, the Directors have a reasonable expectation that the Company has adequate capital and financial support to continue on a going concern for a period of twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.”
Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers

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
