Material uncertainty over going concern
We draw attention to Note 1.3 to the financial statements, which indicates that the company's ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on continued financial support from its ultimate parent company, which is not guaranteed. A material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the company's ability to continue.
