Going concern

Affirmed

“In adopting the going concern basis for preparing the financial statements, the directors have carefully considered the company's business activities, strategy, and the associated risks and controls. To assess the company's viability, management reviewed a 12-month period from the date of signing, considering the two-year business plan. As part of this assessment, scenario analysis was performed, considering three revenue scenarios: base case, downside case, and reverse stress case. ... In both the base and downside scenarios, the Board concluded that sufficient reserves would be available to support operations for at least 12 months following the date of signing.”

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
