“At 31 December 2024, the assets of the Company consist mainly of securities, nineteen of which are AIM quoted actively traded and readily realisable, as well as £1.8 million of cash at bank and £2.7 million invested in three money-market funds to manage liquidity. As at 31 December 2024, 30% of net assets comprise unquoted investments. Based on its knowledge of the business and its expectations, the Directors have a reasonable expectation that the Company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for a period of at least twelve months from the date of the signing of these Financial Statements. The Company therefore continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing its Financial Statements.”
