- Affirmed
“No material uncertainties that cast doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern have been identified by the Directors. The Directors are comfortable with the going concern position despite the Company being in a net current liability position as a result of confirmation received from the intercompany loan holder where the directors are common with the Company, that these loan notes will not be called up for payment, to the extent that resources are not otherwise available to meet the Company's liabilities. All liabilities are within the group and there are no external liabilities.”
