“due to the cessation of trade, the directors do not consider it to be appropriate to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements. Accordingly, the financial statements have been prepared on a basis other than going concern.”
Significant events
- “On behalf of several TOCs in the industry, including London & Birmingham Railway Limited, the Rail Delivery Group instructed lawyers to negotiate compensation for overpayment of the multilateral interchange fee to Visa on credit card sales from 2011 to 2022. Agreed terms underpinning a satisfactory settlement figure have yet to be finalised and the figure in question is confidential under the terms of the negotiation. Accordingly, the Company cannot disclose a reliable estimate of any contingent asset in respect of this matter at the time of publishing these financial statements.”
