Audit opinion

Going concern
Affirmed

“Due to the structure of the entity there is reliance on intercompany financing for the day to day operations via a central treasury function, the entity also has intercompany loan balances that are repayable on demand. As such the directors have obtained a letter of support from a parent company GvH Vermogensverwaltungsgesellschaft XXXIII mbh. Based on enquiries performed the directors are confident that the ultimate parent can provide such support for the period to 31 July 2026 which is the formal going concern period assessed by the Directors. On this basis they continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2024.”
