Material uncertainty over going concern
Given the proposed transaction and uncertainty over the post-sale group structure and future financing arrangements, the directors are unable to assess or control all of the scenarios for the company's future and operations of the business. As such, this circumstance indicates the existence of a material uncertainty related to events or conditions that may cast doubt on the company's ability to continue as a going concern.
