“The company participates in cash pooling arrangements with Deutsche Bahn AG (DBAG) and operates these to manage working capital. This is a long standing arrangement which the company has been party to for a number of years. A letter of comfort has been provided by DBAG to confirm the funds in the cash pooling facility will remain available on request. Future forecasts show that credit facilities are not required in order for the company to continue as a going concern. The company has provided a letter of support across the DB Cargo UK group.”
