“On this basis, the Directors have a reasonable expectation that the Company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future, including for a period of at least 12 months from the date of approval of these financial statements. Accordingly, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.”
Significant events
- “On 21 June 2026, the Company's parent company, Maintel Holdings Plc, signed a new banking agreement with HSBC to replace the previous facility, for 24 months to 30 June 2028. The revised facility with HSBC in place under this agreement consists of a £12.0m revolving credit facility ("RCF"), a £6.2m term loan on a reducing basis and a £2.0m arranged overdraft facility. Capital repayments will commence from April 2027.”
- “In order to support the Company and Group's forecasted growth and sustainable delivery of newly signed projects, the Company's parent also launched a fundraising offer in May 2026. This has resulted in the Company's parent raising approximately £5.5m (before expenses), which will be used to support the financing of the Group.”
