Year-on-year

FY2023 → FY2024 · period ending 2024-12-31 vs 2023-12-31

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

Going concern
Material uncertainty disclosed

“The Board of Directors of Kabanga Nickel Limited has evaluated the appropriateness of the going concern basis in preparing the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2024 and concluded that a material uncertainty exists at the date of the approval of these financial statements. We draw attention to Note 2 to the financial statements, which indicates that the Group and Parent Company is dependent on the continued financial support from the Ultimate Parent Company which is not guaranteed. The Ultimate Parent Company's consolidated financial statements included a material uncertainty related to going concern which may have a direct impact on the Ultimate Parent Company's ability to provide the required financial support to the Group and Parent Company.”
