Material uncertainty over going concern
These conditions indicate the existence of a material uncertainty which may cast significant doubt on the Group's ability to continue as a going concern. However, having considered the forecasts, continued support of existing shareholders and loan confirmation, the Directors have a reasonable expectation that the Group will have adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Accordingly, the Directors continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting preparing these financial statements.

Ratios
Computed from the line items above — sparklines read oldest → newest
| Ratio | Trend | 2023-08-31 | 2024-08-31 | 2025-08-31 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Return on capital employed | -136.7% | -123.9% | -135.2% | |

| Current ratio | 4.11x | 2.59x | 0.66x | |
| Interest cover | -60.06x | — | — |
Gearing is liabilities over total assets. Current ratio is current assets over creditors falling due within one year. Interest cover is operating profit over absolute finance costs. Margin ratios are hidden where reported turnover is too small relative to profit to yield a meaningful figure — typical of holding companies whose income is mostly subsidiary dividends rather than trading revenue.
