“On 30 May 2025, the Company was acquired by WSP UK Limited, an entity incorporated under the laws of England and Wales and ultimately owned by WSP Global Inc, a listed entity incorporated in Canada. Following this acquisition by WSP UK Limited, it is the intention of the directors that the Company's trade and assets will be transferred from the Company to WSP UK Limited within 12 months from the reporting end date. Given this planned cessation of trade and the fact that the directors do not intend to seek a replacement trade, accordingly the directors have prepared the financial statements on a basis other than going concern.”
