Material uncertainty over going concern
Therefore, it is not anticipated that there will be a termination of the management agreement for the Andaz London Liverpool Street, nor the trading of the hotel, in 2026. Accordingly, the Company continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements. However, given the possibility that the closure notice could be triggered within the next 12 months, an uncertainty that may cast doubt has been reported on going concern as disclosed in pages 4 to 5.

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
