Significant events
- “On 15 August 2022 South Staffordshire Plc announced that it had been the subject of a criminal cyber-attack. The nature of the attack did not include data encryption or destruction but did include data exfiltration.”
- “On 30 April 2025, South Staffordshire Plc entered into an agreement with Rivage Euro Debt Infrastructure for a £40m term loan at a fixed rate of 8.32% maturing 19 December 2031. On 12 August 2025, SSW Finance Limited successfully agreed to re-finance the previous Metlife £43m series A and Metlife £30m series B notes due for repayment in January 26 and replaced them with a combined £80m term loan split equally between MetLife and PacLife. On 21 October 2025 the Series A & B Notes were prepaid from the proceeds of new £40m 6.53% Series D Notes maturing 21 October 2028 and £40m 6.79% Series E Notes maturing 21 December 2030.”
- “The Group used the majority of the new £40m term loan proceeds to pay down the existing £40m Revolving Credit Facility. The remaining amounts of utilisation are expected to be repaid and the facility cancelled in the period to 31 March 2026.”
- “The following subsidiaries of the Company as at 31 March 2024, which were all non-trading companies as at that date, and 100% owned by the Company were dissolved on 15 October 2024 (and 29 October 2024 for some).”

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
Heads up: a more recent set of accounts has been filed but isn't yet reflected here — the figures above are older than the company's latest filing.
