Material uncertainty over going concern
Although the directors currently have no reason to believe that the Company will be unable to continue as a going concern post-separation, the inability to fully assess the future financial and operational framework of the Company following the transaction indicates the existence of a material uncertainty which may cast significant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.
