- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The directors have received confirmation of continued financial support from the parent company for at least twelve months from the date of approval of these financial statements. This support includes confirmation not to call intercompany balances should it be to the detriment of the company in meeting its obligations as they fall due, and provision of additional funding should it be required. The directors have no reason to believe that any material uncertainty exists that may cast doubt on the company's ability to continue as a going concern. Accordingly, the financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis.”

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
