Material uncertainty over going concern
Based on this assessment, the directors have concluded that a material uncertainty exists which may cast significant doubt upon the Group's ability to continue as a going concern. This uncertainty arises from the Group's ongoing trading losses, the volatile economic and political environment over which the Directors have no control and the inherent risks associated with achieving the planned mitigating actions described above.
