“The Directors believe that the Company is able to manage its business risks successfully and are of the opinion that the Company is well placed for the future. Marmon Holdings Inc., the parent company, has provided the Group with a binding letter of support for a period of at least 12 months from the date of approval of the financial statements for financial assistance if required. The Directors have concluded, after taking into account the parental support, that they have a reasonable expectation that the Company will have adequate resources to continue in operational existence for a period of at least 12 months from the date of signing the annual report. Thus, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.”
