- Going concern
- Affirmed
“In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the Directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. 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 year of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.”
Significant events
- “The Directors recognise the need for vigilance and the Company is subject to the inflationary challenges relating to costs. Ebro UK will aim to manage cost pressures and manage margin and cash balances. The Directors are aware of these risks and monitor these on a regular basis.”
Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers
