- Going concern
- Affirmed
“Notwithstanding this material uncertainty on the going concern assumption, the Directors are confident that given the Group's track record, the Group and the Ultimate Parent Company's debt falling due for repayment in the going concern period, will be refinanced or settled in line with plans, rather than requiring repayment on maturity, or will be extinguished as part of property disposals in the period - and consequently, the Ultimate Parent Company will be able to provide the required support to the Company. The Directors also believe that the Parent Company's debt will be repaid and therefore, the Company's property will be released from acting as security to the Parent Company's loan. Therefore, the Directors continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing these Company financial statements.”

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
