- Going concern
- Affirmed
“In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the director's use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the group's and parent company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue. The directors have adopted the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements and have concluded that there are no material uncertainties present in relation to going concern.”

Significant events
- “Subsequent to the year end, the Group completed the transfer of a key game title to a related entity in the UAE and ceased publishing and operating that title. The Group is also progressing a broader reorganisation under which certain additional titles and related activities may transition to a UAE-based structure. Management is executing this transition in a controlled manner with appropriate governance and oversight.”
