Going concern

Affirmed

“After reviewing the company's forecasts and projections both in the current year to date as well as looking to the future, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future and therefore do not have any concerns of material uncertainty over going concern. An assessment has been done for a period of at least 12 months from date of signing with consideration of the current economic conditions particularly the inflation, rising costs and high interest rate; while these factors are recognised and assessed along with other influences, the management has no concerns and, as such, the company continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing its financial statements.”

Significant events

• “Inflation, economic uncertainty, and supply chain disruption are the principal risks and uncertainties that the group is currently managing.”
• “New entrants into the market drive continuous improvements to innovation and customer focus.”
• “The Quick Service Restaurant industry remains a strongly competitive environment within a difficult economic climate.”
• “The company is keen to invest in new restaurants and the directors are continuously looking at opportunities to expand 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
