Comments       

:   The financial report has been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates continuity of normal business activities and the realisation of assets and settlement of liabilities in the ordinary course of business.

 

At 30 June 2010 the Subject had recorded a net profit after tax of AUD 233,740 (2009: AUD 124,309), had a surplus of current assets over current liabilities of

 

AUD 806,111 (2009: 942,890) and had net assets of AUD 1,318,012 (2009: AUD 1,359,272).

 

Based on the reason above, the Director believes it is appropriate that the financial report be prepared on a going concern basis. Should HSBC Bank Australia Limited withdraw its facilities from the Subject and the Subject not successfully refinance with another bank, there is significant uncertainty that the Company will be able to continue as a going concern and therefore whether it will realize its assets and extinguish its liabilities in the normal course of business and at the amounts states in the financial report.
