Material uncertainty over going concern
The company, and wider Pantera group, has seen challenging conditions in the residential construction sector that have delayed major house building projects in 2025 and this is expected to continue throughout 2026 and into 2027. ...cashflow forecasts indicate that further finance as well as support from existing creditors, including suppliers, HMRC and finance providers will be necessary during 2026 and into 2027 in order to trade through this challenging period. ...The directors are confident that the required facilities and investment will be secured in order that the company, and the group can meet obligations as they fall due and can continue trading. Therefore, the accounts have been prepared on a going concern basis.
