No material uncertainties were identified that may cast significant doubt on the company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from authorisation.”
Significant events
- “The Company continues to develop new advertising locations and complete contract negotiations with landlords and municipalities.”
- “The delayed UK budget in November and approach of the government seeding various policies, also created further uncertainty, and this had an impact on the past 2 years Q4 results.”
