Material uncertainty over going concern
While the Director expects the Company to be able to continue to meet its obligations as they fall due, there remains a material uncertainty related to the corporate loan, which may cast significant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that would arise if the going concern basis were inappropriate.

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
