Material uncertainty over going concern
The company is therefore dependent on a significant customer, a related party, not to terminate any or all Statements of Work. This indicates that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the company's ability to continue as a going concern, and therefore, the company may be unable to realise its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business.

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
