Significant events

• “In January 2025, the Company's US-based parent entity, Gallagher International Holdings, transferred its entire shareholding in the Company to Arthur J. Gallagher EMEA Limited (AJGE). This resulted in the Company having a new direct parent entity in the post balance sheet period.”
• “Additionally, as part of EMEA restructuring activity, Gallagher International Holdings waived loans totalling £1.2 billion owed by the Company - with a corresponding increase in retained earnings as a result. As a result of the waiver, the loan notes have been presented as creditors due within one year as noted in Note 10, rather than creditors due in more than one year as was previously the case.”
• “The Company transferred its investment in GGB Finance 5 Limited to Arthur J. Gallagher EMEA Limited (AJGE). As a result of the restructuring activity discussed in note 8, the revised cost of the Company's investment in GGB Finance 5 was £878.7m, with AJGE assuming the loan notes payable to GGB Finance 5 Limited of for the same amount in exchange. The transaction has had no impact on profit or loss and no impact on equity in 2025.”

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
