“The company continues to meet its' day-to-day working capital requirements via cash reserves. The current economic climate continues to create uncertainty over the long-term level of demand for the company's products, and while the company has significant cash reserves to negate any borrowing concerns, its' longer-term turnover still needs to improve and its' controllable cost structure regularly reviewed. The company's forecasts and projections, taking into account different levels of trading conditions shows the company will be able to operate within these levels. The company has performed a downside scenario which confirms our funding resources of £16m would cover cash flow requirement during this period. The directors have a reasonable expectation the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. The company therefore 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
