“The financial statements of the Company have been prepared on a going concern basis, which the Directors believe to be appropriate. After giving due consideration to Company forecasts and objectives which take into consideration the expected outlook for the business, including consideration of the UK's economic outlook and the ongoing conflicts in Russia/Ukraine and Israel/Palestine, the Directors are satisfied that the Company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence, particularly as the Company's ultimate parent undertaking, Skipton Building Society, has confirmed that it will continue to support the Company financially for twelve months from the date of approval of these financial statements.”
