Material uncertainty over going concern
Notwithstanding net current liabilities at the balance sheet date, the Financial Statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. The Directors have considered the working capital cycle of the business and recognise the need for ongoing support from their intermediate parent company, Boats Group Holdings, Inc. Having made enquiries, their intermediate parent company has confirmed in writing their willingness to continue to provide such financial support to the company as necessary to enable it to meet its liabilities as they fall due for a period of not less than 12 months from the date of approval of these financial statements.

Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. Periods don't have to be exactly 12 months apart — a long or short period (typical around incorporation or year-end changes) will distort the comparison. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers
