Material uncertainty over going concern
Accordingly, the group and the company are reliant on further financing, which is not guaranteed. This indicates that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the group and the company's ability to continue as a going concern, and therefore they may be unable to realise their assets and discharge their liabilities in the normal course of 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
