Material uncertainty over going concern
The Company is fortunate to benefit from the strong support of its banker and successfully refinanced its loan facility in the year. This facility is subject to financial covenants. During the year the Company breached certain financial covenants, specifically their cash flow to debt service cover. The lender has not taken action over the breach and the directors have no reason to believe that this funding will not continue. However as the bankers have reserved the right to recall the loan, the loan has therefore been classified as due within one year. A material uncertainty therefore exists in relation to the ongoing availability of finance and this may cast significant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. Periods don't have to be exactly 12 months apart — a long or short period (typical around incorporation or year-end changes) will distort the comparison. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers
