Affirmed

“The financial statements have been prepared on the basis of the going concern assumption and the Directors have confirmed that this was realistic at the time the financial statements were approved, expecting adequate resources to continue operational existence. A Letter of Support from parent company Odfjell Rig Owning Ltd confirms no repayment of advances will be sought unless alternative financing is secured for at least 12 months from signing date.”

Year-on-year

FY2024 → FY2025 · period ending 2025-12-31 vs 2024-12-31

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
