It 1s understood that as a result of the financial position of the Companies, the Director had sought insolvency advice tn the days leading up to the appoimtment of the Joint Administrators and intended to appoint representatives of Empirical Insolvency LLP as Liquidators, at the recommendation of the external accountants for the Compames At around this time and without any notice to affected parties, the Director became uncontactable and his current whereabouts 1s still unknown
The external accountants for the Companies advised that the Companies’ accounts were only updated to 31 March 2015 and were therefore unreliable A member of the accounts team at the Companies also advised that the Companies were in the process of changing the financial year end from October 2014 to March 2015
