Audit opinion
Unqualified (clean)
Going concern
Affirmed

“The directors have considered all relevant matters and believe that the going concern basis continues to be appropriate when preparing these accounts. The directors have prepared cashflow forecasts for the 12 months following the approval of the financial statements which indicate that the Group will have sufficient funds through funding from its ultimate parent company, Crown Worldwide Holdings Limited, to meet its liabilities as they fall due for that period. The forecasts are dependant on the Group's ultimate parent company, Crown Worldwide Holding Limited, not seeking repayment of the amounts currently due to the group which at the balance sheet date amounted to £21.9m, and providing additional support as required. Crown Worldwide Holdings Limited have indicated its intention to make funds available to the Company and that it does not intend to seek repayment of the amounts due at the balance sheet date for the period covered by the forecasts. As with any company placing reliance on other group entities for support, the directors acknowledge that there can be no certainty that this support will continue although at the date of approval of these financial statements, they have no reason to believe that it will not do so.”
