Going concern
Affirmed

“The directors' base case assessment, which is based on board-approved budgets, is that these obligations will be settled from cash at hand and through the receipt of receivables due from related parties, as disclosed in note 16. There are no indications of any events that would result in significant one-off payments, inability to settle existing and future liabilities or unforecast liabilities for the company. Whilst potentially severe but plausible downside scenarios have been identified the directors have concluded that, based on the mitigations put in place, these do not impact the going concern conclusion.”

Year-on-year

FY2023 → FY2024 · period ending 2024-12-31 vs 2023-12-31

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
