Material uncertainty over going concern
Material uncertainty related to going concern - overdrawn client money bank account We draw attention to note 1.4 of the financial statements concerning the group's and parent company's ability to continue as a going concern. We have considered the adequacy of the disclosures made in notes 1.4 and 16 to the financial statements concerning the fact that as at the balance sheet date £1.7m has been funded by overdrawn client accounts, and that, if the various loans to related entities that are being funded by these overdrawn client accounts and/or the group and parent company fails to cover the balance in full, then the bank has a right to offset this balance against monies in other designated client accounts. We have not been able to ascertain whether any breach of contract has occurred. These conditions, along with other matters explained in note 1.4 of the financial statements, indicate the existence of a material uncertainty which may cause significant doubt over the group's and parent company's ability to continue as a going concern. Our opinion is not modified in this respect.

Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. Periods don't have to be exactly 12 months apart — a long or short period (typical around incorporation or year-end changes) will distort the comparison. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers
