Audit opinion
Unqualified (clean)
Going concern
Material uncertainty disclosed

“Following the General Meeting held on 30 September 2024 at which shareholders unanimously voted in favour of the discontinuation of the Company and a change in the Company Objective and Investment Policy in order to facilitate the Managed Wind-Down of the Company, the process for an orderly realisation of the Company's assets and a return of capital to shareholders began in September 2024 and is expected to conclude over a number of years. There is, however, a material uncertainty over whether the Company will be in existence in its current form twelve-months from the date of approval of the financial statements, should the Managed Wind-Down process conclude during that time period. These conditions, along with the other matters explained in note 2 to the financial statements, indicate the existence of a material uncertainty which may cast significant doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.”
