Going concern
Affirmed

“The Company has made a loss in the year and has net liabilities at the year-end reflecting the nature of its operations being a holding company with interest bearing loan notes. The Company is dependent upon Group support via intercompany amounts owed. The Directors have prepared a going concern assessment based on forecasts prepared for the Group, of which the Company is part of, for a period up to December 2028, including realistic downside scenarios. These forecasts, which incorporate assumptions about the market in which the Group operates in and key relationships with its customers, predict the Group will continue to trade for the foreseeable future. Further detail about the going concern position of the group are included within the consolidated financial statements of The Canning Group International Ltd. A group company has undertaken to provide financial support to the Company for at least a year from the date of signing these financial statements. The Directors therefore confirm that sufficient finance will be available to meet obligations as they fall due in line with the Group's forecast for a period of not less than twelve months from the date of signing of these financial statements. Accordingly, the Directors continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the annual report and accounts. Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.”

FY2023 → FY2024 · period ending 2024-12-31 vs 2023-12-31

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
