“The directors have completed a formal assessment of the Company's financial resources, including its budgets and forecasts. This review took place after the sale to Groupe BPCE and after making appropriate enquiries, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the Company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for at least 12 months from the date of approval of the financial statements.”
Significant events
- “On 28 February 2025, Groupe BPCE acquired the equipment finance business of Societe Generale. Following the acquisition, and as a result of the change in ownership, the company's name was changed from SG Equipment Finance (December) Limited to BPCE Equipment Solutions UK (December) Limited. The directors have assessed the transaction and determined that it has no direct impact on the company's net assets, financial position, or results of operations for the year ended 31 December 2024.”
- “Following a Supreme Court judgement on 1 August 2025, the FCA is currently considering a financial redress scheme concerning motor finance consumers who may have suffered harm due to what the FCA deem to be unfair commission arrangements. Management has considered the potential exposure and based upon the nature of the Company's commission arrangements has not made any provision in the financial statements to 31 December 2024.”

Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. Periods don't have to be exactly 12 months apart — a long or short period (typical around incorporation or year-end changes) will distort the comparison. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers
