Material uncertainty over going concern
We draw attention to note 3 in the financial statements, which indicates that the Company's ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on the availability of continued financial support from its parent undertaking, Prokarium Holdings Limited. As stated in note 3, these events or conditions, along with the other matters as set forth in note 3, indicate that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.
