Going concern

Affirmed

“Having made due enquiries, the Directors believe they can reasonably expect that the Company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence on a standalone basis for at least 12 months from 16 April 2025 (the date of approval of the financial statements). Accordingly, the Directors have adopted the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements. While the Directors would expect Aviva to continue to deliver long term value from the Company's ongoing operations they note however, that it is beyond their control as to whether Aviva would undertake any restructuring of the Group's legal entities. Therefore, given the potential change in control, the Directors consider these conditions to constitute a material uncertainty (as defined under IAS 1) which may cast significant doubt over the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Notwithstanding this uncertainty, the Directors are satisfied that the going concern basis remains appropriate for the preparation of the financial statements.”

Significant events

• “The Company agreed, with effect from 1 January 2025, to a decrease in the panel fee it pays to a fellow subsidiary of the Group to continue on its panel of vehicle accident repair centres. The Directors believe that the panel membership fee arrangement will continue a successful partnership and access to business which is important for the future success of the Company. The decrease in cost for the Company for the year ended 31 December 2025 compared with the year ended 31 December 2024 will be £48.3 million.”

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
