Going concern

Affirmed

“The directors are formally required to consider whether it is appropriate, assessing 12 months from the date of signing these accounts, to prepare the accounts of the Company on a going concern basis taking into account reasonable uncertainties. The Company's forecasts and projections, taking account of reasonably possible changes in trading performance indicates that the Company will be able to operate within the level of its facilities for a forecast period of at least 12 months from the approval date of these financial statements. The uncertainty in connection with staff and material cost inflation and supply constraints have been considered as part of the Company's adoption of the going concern basis. The Company has considered a number of scenarios to assess the potential impact on the Company's results, including performing reverse stress testing on forecasts. In preparing the forecasts, the key assumptions tested were revenue generation and access to intercompany funding. The company is confident that even under the most severe of scenarios, sufficient facilities remain available over the forecast period. Accordingly, the Company continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing its 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
