Material uncertainty over going concern
In forming our opinion on the financial statements, which is not modified, we have considered the adequacy of the disclosure made in note 1 to the financial statements concerning the company's ability to continue as a going concern. During the year, the Company has breached its covenants of its bank loan and, as a result, the banking syndicate is entitled to demand immediate repayment of all amounts outstanding on the loans. The directors do not expect the banking syndicate to recall the loan but the covenant breaches remain and have not been waived formally by the banking syndicate. Additionally, the Company has a loan from its immediate parent. The Company is currently unable to meet the scheduled repayments, necessitating a waiver or confirmation from the parent company that immediate repayment will not be demanded, which is not in place at the date of the approval of these financial statements. These conditions, along with the other matters explained in note 1 to the financial statements, indicate the existence of a material uncertainty which may cast significant doubt about the company's ability to continue as a going concern.

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

Significant events
- “During the year the Company breached its loan covenants, entitling the lenders to demand repayment of all amounts outstanding on the loans should they choose to. The Company has continued to pay all interest and principal to its lenders as payments have fallen due, and the lenders have not indicated that repayment of the loans will be demanded, although the possibility remains that they may exercise their legal right to do so. The Company continues to provide regular updates to the lenders, with a view to ensuring ongoing support.”
