- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The directors believe that these forecasts in conjunction with the existing external facility headroom and the company's ability to satisfactorily manage financing/ other business risks, means there is a reasonable expectation the company will have adequate resources to continue in operation for at least 12 months from the signing date. They therefore consider it appropriate to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.”
Significant events
- “In April 2025 the Company was acquired by Avonside Energy Holdings Limited with a view to growing its presence in the sector and at the same time generating operational, management and back office efficiencies and performance improvements.”
