In the year ended 31 December 2018, the company entered into a dispute with a customer. The case was decided in favour of the company in the year ended 31 December 2019. As a result of the legal proceedings, the company became entitled to exercise its contractual rights of lien in respect of the indebtedness.
In March 2020, the customer filed a civil suit disputing the original judgment and seeking to restrain Misnak International (UK) Limited from exercising its contractual lien. The civil suit was dismissed by the Court. Following the dismissal of that case, the customer commenced further proceedings against the company (see note 7). An application challenging the jurisdiction of the court was made by the company; however, the court held that it had jurisdiction. The company has appealed that ruling and is awaiting directions from the court regarding the hearing of the appeal. The outcome of the proceedings remains uncertain and, accordingly, no provision has been made in the accounts. The directors remain confident that the company will be successful in the legal dispute. The amount due from the customer, being £69,397, was settled during the year ended 31 December 2025 through the exercise of the company's contractual lien.
The directors have carefully considered these risks including an assessment on future trading projection for a period of at least 12 months from the date of signing the financial statements, and the extent to which they might affect the preparation of the financial statements on a going concern basis.
Therefore, after making relevant enquiries, the directors have reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue in operation for the foreseeable future. Thus the directors have continued to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing these financial statements.
