Going concern
Affirmed

“Following the receipt of a letter of support from Howden UK&I Holdings Limited ("HHL"), the Company has access to adequate financial resources as required and will have sufficient resources and support to continue as a going concern. The letter of support states that it is HHL's present intention to make available such funds as are necessary to enable the Company to continue in operational existence for at least until 18 December 2025 by providing such financial support necessary for the Company to meet its liabilities as they fall due for payment and therefore it is appropriate to adopt a going concern basis for the preparation of the financial statements.”
