- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The directors have a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future, being at least the forthcoming 12 months. Accordingly, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements and believe that the company is well placed to manage its business risks successfully. The directors' have received confirmation that Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc intends to support the company in order to meet its liabilities as they fall due, should this requirement arise, for at least 12 months after the financial statements have been approved. The company therefore continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing its financial statements.”
