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 to 30 June 2026.”

Significant events

• “The loan from Phoenix UK Fund Limited was partially repaid in January and March 2025 with the residual £11.0 million waived. A new loan was received and drawn from Phoenix UK Fund Limited for £4.7m, repayable in January 2028 with an interest rate of 7%, rising to 15% from 31 December 2025.”
• “The Dignity Group repaid the £1.0 million loan with SPWOne Limited in January 2025.”
• “The Securitisation Group did not meet this covenant until Q3 2024. However, under the terms of the March 2022, September 2023, December 2023 and March 2024 waivers this was not a breach as the Dignity Group was able to make an equity cure, contributing cash which counts as EBITDA and therefore makes good this shortfall. Total equity cures of £16.0 million, £2.5 million and £12.9 million were made in 2023, Q1 2024 and Q2 2024, respectively.”
• “On 19 December 2023, the Company passed a special resolution to extend the redemption date of the Preference Shares to 31 December 2033.”

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
