Accounts not prepared on a going-concern basis
On 06 March 2026, the Board of Directors resolved to recommend that the Company be placed into Members' Voluntary Liquidation following the completion of the sale and novation of its intellectual property and the conclusion of its remaining business activities. As a result, the directors have determined that it is no longer appropriate to prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis. Accordingly, these financial statements have been prepared on a basis other than going concern.
