Facts from the Companies House register and the latest accounts — not a rating

Material uncertainty over going concern
Edyn Aparthotel Europe S.à r.l. has provided the Company with a letter of support, however it is not legally binding and they have also issued this support to a significant number of other entities within the group. This fact indicates the existence of a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt over the Company's ability to continue as a going concern and therefore, the Company may be unable to realise its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business.

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
