“The directors consider it appropriate to adopt the going concern basis of accounting when preparing these financial statements.

Further details regarding the directors' assessment is included in note 2c on pages 19 and 20.”
Significant events
- “In March 2024, the Company received a request from the FCA to voluntarily and temporarily cease sales of GAP insurance products. This request was part of the FCA's ongoing industry-wide review of whether GAP products provide fair value to the consumer...”
- “On 2 April 2025, the FCA communicated that they had reviewed the information provided by the Company regarding enhancements made to the Company's fair value assessments and agreed to the removal of the voluntary requirement applied to the Company. The FCA's records were updated accordingly to reflect that the restriction had been lifted and the Company intends to return the GAP product to sale in 2025.”

Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. The comparison is only shown when the latest and prior accounts cover broadly equal-length periods — short or long stubs (typical around incorporation or a year-end change) are suppressed rather than misrepresented. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers
