Material uncertainty over going concern
The directors of Punch (BSV) Ltd have concluded that the company has adequate resources to remain in operation for the foreseeable future. Following the cessation of trade, it is the directors' intention to enter into voluntary liquidation within 12 months of the approval of the financial statements. Therefore, the directors have adopted a basis other than going concern in preparing the financial statements.

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
