“The Directors have carried out a robust viability assessment of the emerging and principal risks and concluded that they have a reasonable expectation that the Company will continue in operation and meet its liabilities as they fall due over a three-year period from the date of this report. Due to the uncertainty arising from the proposed Managed Realisation, the Directors have disclosed an uncertainty in respect of the outcome of the upcoming General Meeting, but not withstanding the outcome the Directors continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the Financial Statements.”
