Material uncertainty over going concern
We draw attention to note 1 to the financial statements which indicates that the Company's ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on the continued financial support from its ultimate parent company, Travelex International Limited. The financial statements of Travelex International Limited include a material uncertainty related to going concern and therefore the availability of support may be in doubt if required. In addition, the Company's plan to utilise its e-money license as Issuer in the UK has been delayed, and there is a risk that the FCA could withdraw the e-money license. In the event that this occurs, the specific future of the Company is uncertain. These events and conditions, along with the other matters explained in note 1, constitute a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

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
