  Material uncertainty over going concern

  Considering the continued support from stakeholders and the company's financial forecasts, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue to operate for at least twelve months from the date of approval of these financial statements and continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements. However, given that there is a material uncertainty surrounding the banks continued support whilst the company remains in breach of its bank covenants, there is a material uncertainty that may cast 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

Significant events

• “The IEO (Informal Eating Out) and QSR (Quick Service Restaurant) markets have continued to see a decline in customer visits versus 2023, which in turn has led to challenging guest count and sales performance.”
• “The company was unable to meet the debt service coverage covenant at the balance sheet date. As a result, the loans have been classified as repayable on demand.”
