Audit & accounting basis

- Standalone (parent only)
- Auditor
- PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP
- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The Directors are of the opinion that the Company will generate sufficient cash to operate under the terms of the securitisation and has adequate resources to continue in operational existence over the forecast period. The final repayment date for the Series 2 Loan Notes is April 2029 and the Company will require an orderly winddown following this date. Unpaid amounts due on the Notes are discharged in full due to the limited recourse nature of the Company's borrowings. The Directors continue to adopt the going concern basis.”
Significant events
- “A settlement agreement between the Company and Capita (which was the previous servicer) was entered into on 7 December 2017, with Capita pledging £8,000,000 to fund settlements with customers and reimbursement of related advisory costs.”
- “On 2 December 2019, a regulatory news service ("RNS") announcement to the London Stock Exchange confirmed that the Company had remediated customers by £3,100,000 split between actual cash payments and balance reductions for those affected by non-compliance with the CCA with £1,000,000 pledged for costs incurred before 31 March 2019 and £1,500,000 for costs relating to the remediation plan.”

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
