“The directors have reviewed detailed forecasts based on a range of possible outcomes, projected cash generation, projected costs, and working capital requirements. Having considered these forecasts, cash resources, and facilities, the directors have concluded that there is no material uncertainty arising in relation to going concern and that the company has a reasonable expectation that it has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future and to meet its obligations as they fall due. Accordingly, the directors continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.”
