- Going concern
- Affirmed
“In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.”

- “The mortgage market experienced a return to more favourable trading conditions in 2024 with total Gross Lending increasing to £242bn (2023: £224bn)”
- “A key driver of our success was the continued investment in leadership, with several high-calibre appointments to ExCo.”
- “L&C has committed to investing a significant amount of capital into new technology which will deliver material enhancements to the customer and colleague POS journey”
- “in December 2024 the Board approved a multimillion-pound technology transformation programme.”
