Material uncertainty over going concern
As a result of the above, the Directors recognise that the uncertainty regarding future fundraising requirements gives rise to the existence of a material uncertainty, which may cast significant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements of the Company do not reflect any adjustments that would be required if the Company were unable to continue as a going concern.

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
