“On the basis of those assurances, the Directors consider that there is reasonable expectation that the Company will continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus they continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.”
Significant events
- “On 13 October 2025, the entire issued share capital of Howard Ventures Limited (HVL), the Company's ultimate parent company, was acquired by Howard Investment Company Limited (HICL), a company that had been under common control. HVL cancelled its existing shares which created a reserve. This reserve was then applied to issue 16,303,648 new and fully paid up £1 ordinary shares to HICL. In return, HICL accepted these shares as consideration for its issuance of 4,801 B ordinary shares and 28,662,846 0% redeemable preference shares to the previous shareholders of HVL. The total consideration paid was £29.9m.”
