“Forecasts covering the four years to 31 December 2028 show that the Company will be cash generative and able to pay its liabilities as they fall due. To the extent that surplus cash is generated, or additional facilities are required, the Company is part of a broader group of companies where the operating model is to make cash available across the Group on an as-needed basis. The Directors of the Company are therefore satisfied that the wider group, of which the Company is part, has sufficient funds to meet any cash requirements of the Company and its subsidiaries for the foreseeable future.”
