“At the year end, the Group has net liabilities of £105,492,068 (2023 - £91,805,773), Parent Company net liabilities of £27,494,582 (2023 - £20,539,711) and Group net current liabilities of £132,800,919 (2023 - £138,457,003) which includes deferred income of £52,475,499 (2023 - £47,283,519), Parent Company net current liabilities of £87,840,314 (2023 - £80,885,443). The directors have carefully reviewed the prospects of the Group. Given the Group and Parent Company have positive operating cashflows, the directors believe that the current performance along with the future forecasts will generate sufficient income to cover all operational working capital as they fall due. The Group and Parent Company are reliant on the intercompany loans with the Parent Company (see note 15) not being called in until sufficient cash has been generated to settle the balances. Should the Group require financial support to meet its obligations as they fall due for payment, Fortra International Group Limited have received a letter of support from HS MidCo Inc, their ultimate parent company. HS Midco, Inc confirms the commitment to continue to make available all intercompany arrangements within the HS Midco Inc. Group for the twelve months following the date of approval of the financial statements, inclusive of the primary loan provided by Help Systems LLC to Fortra International Limited. The directors have assessed the ability of HS Midco Inc. to provide this support, and have concluded that they believe that HS Midco Inc., will be able to provide financial support as required. The directors therefore consider it appropriate that the financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis.”

Year-on-year

FY2022 → FY2023 · period ending 2023-12-31 vs 2022-12-31

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
