Material uncertainty over going concern
In forming our opinion, which is not modified, we draw attention to disclosures made in the Directors' report and Note 2.3 in the financial statements concerning the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The Company is an intermediate holding company and therefore is reliant on the Atlanta Topco Limited Group (Group or Damovo Group) to be a going concern to be able to support it. Therefore the going concern review focuses on the forecasts for the Group and their ability to continue as a going concern. The events and conditions, along with other matters as set forth in Note 2.3, indicate that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the Group and the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes that the Group and the Company will continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. The validity of this assumption as stated in Note 2.3 depends on the outcome of the actions taken by the directors to return the Group to profitability and the continued support of the Group's stakeholders and lenders. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classifications of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue in existence.

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
