Facts from the Companies House register and the latest accounts — not a rating
-
Material uncertainty over going concern
As the net assets and business of the company has been transferred to another group company, the financial statements have been prepared on a non-going concern basis. The company therefore does not adopt the going concern basis in preparing its financial statements.

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
