Audit opinion
Unqualified (clean)
Going concern
Material uncertainty disclosed

“We draw attention to the company's net liabilities position and to note 1.2 of the financial statements, which sets out the current insolvency position of the company and the directors' assessment of going concern. Notwithstanding this, the directors have prepared the financial statements on a going concern basis due to the financial support available from the ultimate shareholder. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter. The Directors are aware that should any of the creditors decide to call on their amounts due to them, the Company does not have the immediate ability to fully extinguish the debts to the extent of its net liabilities. This indicates the existence of a material uncertainty that may cast doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. One of the Directors has confirmed via a letter of support they have sufficient liquid funds and will provide the Company with the financial support it requires to discharge its liabilities for a period of 12 months from the date of signing the financial statements as required. Repayments on the bank loan are being met and has since been fully settled after year end. This therefore helps mitigate the material uncertainty. The Directors are of the opinion that the Company has the full support of all related parties that the Company owes amounts to. The company is dependent on the continued support of the ultimate beneficial owner, with significant loan balances being due to other entities under the owner's control, and their continued support is necessary to cover ongoing losses. The Directors have considered the above and concluded that the Company can continue as a going concern, meeting its liabilities as they fall due. The financial statements have therefore been prepared on a going concern basis.”
