Material uncertainty over going concern
We draw attention to note 2.2 in the financial statements, which indicates that the Company's principal source of revenue will cease following the liquidation of the Balthazar Absolute Return Fund from which it earned substantially all its revenue. The Company is currently exploring options for future business; however, these remain uncertain. As stated in note 2.2, these events or conditions, along with the other matters as set forth in note 2.2, indicate that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.

Significant events
- “subsequent to the year-end, in March 2026, the Balthazar Absolute Return Fund, which has historically accounted for substantially all of the Company's trading income began the process of winding down. The cessation of management fees from the Fund is expected to have a significant impact on the Company's revenue base moving forward.”
- “Following the year-end, an orderly wind-down of its primary source of income, the Balthazar Absolute Return Fund was put in place. The Fund, which has historically been the principal driver of the Company's revenue, will cease generating management fees upon its liquidation. As a result, the cessation of these fees will significantly affect the Company's income. The Directors are currently exploring the potential of a successor fund to establish a new revenue stream.”
