Based on the directors' assessment described above, the directors are of the opinion that the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for a period of at least 12 months from the date of signing the company's financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2024 and therefore the going concern basis has been adopted in preparing the financial statements.”
