- Affirmed
“The directors are of the opinion that the company will be able to continue trading as a going concern, on the basis that the company is not required to repay the intercompany loan payable to fellow group company Turbocombustor Technology, Inc. The directors have obtained a letter of support from Turbocombustor Technology, Inc, indicating the parent company's intent to continue to support the company and not demand repayment of the loan for a period of at least 12 months from the date of the signed financial statements. On this basis, the directors have continued to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.”
Significant events
- “The current outlook for 2026 anticipates a further 5% increase in revenue, supported by a strong order pipeline and significant new contracts recently secured, which are expected to commence in 2027.”
