- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The directors have assessed the cash flow requirements for at least twelve months from date of approval of the financial statements which show that the company can pay its liabilities as they fall due. The directors having made appropriate enquiries, consider that the Company had adequate resources, including the existing cash pooling arrangement to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future, and it is therefore appropriate to adopt the going concern basis in preparation of the financial statements.”
Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers
