- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. The Group incurred an EBITDA loss during the year and the balance sheet shows net liabilities. Subsequent to the year end, the Group strengthened its financial position through additional equity and loan financing, together with contracted revenues that provide visibility of cash inflows for the next 12 months. On this basis, the Directors consider that the Group and Company will have sufficient working capital to continue trading for at least 12 months from the date of approval of these financial statements.”

Significant events
- “Subsequent to the year end, the Company repaid its existing $1.4 million loan facility. At the same time, the Company completed a $3.0 million equity raise. The company also entered into a new $3.0 million loan facility. The combined funding provides additional liquidity and will support the completion of development of the Company's new products.”

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
