Material uncertainty over going concern
However, to simplify the structure of the UK group, the board has decided to transfer all assets and liabilities of the company to Norseland Ltd during 2025 and plans to voluntarily liquidate the company as part of this. The financial statements have therefore been prepared on a basis other than going concern as the company is expected to be wound down within the next 12 months.

Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. The comparison is only shown when the latest and prior accounts cover broadly equal-length periods — short or long stubs (typical around incorporation or a year-end change) are suppressed rather than misrepresented. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers
