- Affirmed
“The Company's forecasts and projections, whilst reasonably accounting for possible changes in trading performance, show that the Company should be able to operate within the level of its current facilities. To withstand its net current liability position, loans due to the parent company within one year will not be called upon to the detriment of the Company and therefore the Directors believe that the company can continue for the foreseeable future as a going concern.”
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
