Going concern

Affirmed

“The director believes that the company is well placed to manage its business risks and has prepared a financial forecast covering a period in excess of 12 months from the date of approval of the financial statements, to the end of 2026. This forecast has been prepared for the purpose of assessing the financial performance and economic conditions to estimate and project future business revenue and expenditure trends. When considering the forecast, the director has assessed the future economic outlook, including the inflationary and interest rate pressures that are present within the UK economy.”

Significant events

• “The current UK economy of increasing rates of inflation and interest is likely to effect customer spending habits and potentially impact on the hotel occupancy levels, should demand fall.”
• “Room rates and occupancy levels of the company could be negatively affected by events that reduce domestic and/or international travel. These include events such as acts of terrorism, epidemics, travel-related industrial action and increased fuel costs all of which could result in a fall in both domestic and worldwide travel. Such events may lead to a fall in demand for hotel rooms that would have a subsequent impact on the company's operations and financial results.”
• “The company may continue to be effected by increased costs in the new period over a range of areas such as energy costs, food and staffing costs, driven by ongoing world events such as the war in Ukraine, increased restrictions on Russia, the lasting impact of Brexit and increased inflationary and interest rates domestically.”
• “The company is reliant upon certain IT systems for the smooth and efficient running of its business and any disruption to those systems could have a detrimental effect on the running of the 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
