- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The directors have a reasonable expectation that the Company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Therefore, the financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. Given the size of the Company's receivables and having assessed future profit forecasts, and the level of financial support available from Verizon Communications Inc. (ultimate parent company) that covers the period until 31 December 2027, the directors have concluded that the Company will have the ability to meet all its liabilities as they fall due and continue as a going concern until 31 December 2027.”
