Material uncertainty over going concern
The projections are reliant converting currently uncontracted sales growth in 2026. Failure to achieve this, combined with inherent uncertainty regarding support arrangements, indicates a material uncertainty which may cast significant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include adjustments resulting from inability to continue.

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
