“The ability of the company to continue as a going concern is largely dependent on the future views/actions of Nama, which cannot be ascertained at present,” according to notes to the accounts, which approved by the board on April 13th.

The accounts say it is the directors’ view that Nama will continue to support the company. The company’s bank overdraft grew to €12.5 million from €10.4 million at the end of the previous year.
