Going concern

Affirmed

“The Company is reliant on the performance of its subsidiary, The Macallan Distillers Limited, which has sufficient financial resources together with a strong customer and supplier base. When reviewing going concern we have therefore discussed this with reference to the main trading company within the Macallan group of companies, The Macallan Distillers Limited. To assess the appropriateness of adopting the going concern basis for the Company, the directors have reviewed the strategic and financial plan of Macallan Distillers Limited over the next three years. The underlying assumption continues to be that our operations will remain open, and that our global supply chain continues to support the shipment of product to our markets. The experience of Covid-19 and other market volatility has given us confidence that we have the ability to adapt quickly and decisively. With the support of our multiple stakeholders, we have the potential to flex the level of dividends and investment to manage our liquidity. Our updated three-year plan shows core contribution continuing at a level that is sustainable in the current economic environment. As such, the directors have confidence in the Company's financial position for the next 12 months and beyond and therefore deem it appropriate to adopt the going concern basis in the preparation of the annual financial statements.”
