Audit opinion
Unqualified (clean)
Going concern
Material uncertainty disclosed

“However, given the forecast operating loss and the requirement for additional working capital over the next six months, these conditions necessarily indicate that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt over the Group and Company's ability to continue as a going concern and therefore their ability to realise their assets and discharge their liabilities in the normal course of business. Whilst acknowledging this material uncertainty, the Directors remain confident of raising further finance and therefore, the Directors consider it appropriate to prepare the consolidated and parent company financial statements on a going concern basis.”
