Material uncertainty over going concern
The Director believes that there is material uncertainty relating to the Group's position as a going concern due to the insolvency, administration and liquidation of a number of group companies including the head of the Group, The Stanley Gibbons Group plc post balance sheet date. The major assets within the group have been sold in December 2023. The Director has been in discussion with the group's long term creditors including pension trustees and Phoenix S.G. Limited and having regard to those discussions and after making all reasonable enquiries the Director currently has a reasonable expectation that the Company will have access to adequate resources to continue the extremely limited operations which are expected, which do not include active trading, and meet liabilities as and when they fall due for the foreseeable future. For that reason they continue to adopt going concern in the preparation of accounts however the Director is continuing to closely monitor the company's solvency.
