Material uncertainty over going concern
The company currently meets its daily working capital requirements through operating revenues, together with financial support from group companies. However, as future funding is not guaranteed, this represents a material uncertainty in terms of the company's ability to continue as a going concern. Due to the continued operations of the company the financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, although the directors recognise that a material uncertainty exists due to the issues described above. We draw attention to note 3 in the financial statements, which indicates that the amount and timing of both future funding and future operating revenues is uncertain.

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
