Audit & accounting basis

- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The Directors have undertaken an assessment and they expect the Company to be able to meet the day-to-day cash flow needs and its liabilities as they fall due without significant curtailment of operations through the realisation of assets for a period of at least 12 months from the date of these financial statements being signed. ... Thus, they continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the annual financial statements.”
Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers

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
