## From the administrators' statement

The Company’s Director was first referred to Arkin & Co by the Company’s accountants, Lesstax2pay (Portsmouth) Ltd on 24 February 2020 to help advise on the options available for the Company, as it was anticipated at that time that the outbreak of the Coronavirus in Asia would impact the business going forward.

Although the Company had been trading profitably up and until that point, the pandemic was spreading through Western Europe at an alarming rate and as events began unfolding in China, the influx of students to the UK was coming to a rapid end.

It became apparent to the Director that the UK would not escape the effects of the pandemic and that it would have a severe impact on the Company’s ability to trade and the economic climate in general.
