  Material uncertainty over going concern

  The shareholders of the Company are, also considering the sale of the Company, and while it is expected that any new potential shareholder will continue to run the Company as a going concern, the intentions of any potential acquirer are not certain. The directors are, therefore, unable to assess or control all scenarios for the Company's future, including its funding and possible structure after a potential sale is completed. This gives rise to a material uncertainty which may cast significant doubt on 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
