“In making their going concern assessment, the directors have considered the company's forecast trading position and working capital requirements for the next 12 months and are satisfied that the company will have adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. On this basis, the directors continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.”
Significant events

- “In addition, the company has recently purchased the 10 acre land site around their current premises to allow future growth.”
