- Affirmed
“The directors have concluded that they are satisfied the Company has adequate resources to continue its business and, on this basis, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements. The going concern assessment has been prepared up to the period ending 30 June 2026.”
Significant events
- “In September 2024, M&G announced their plan to exit the platform market in the UK. The Group are therefore working with clients to pro-actively transfer assets to other preferred suppliers and, as this happens, revenue in the Company is expected to fall.”
- “The company completed a reduction in capital (via solvency statement) on 7 January 2025. This reduced the issued and fully paid share capital of the company from £17,356.26 ... to £0.001 by cancelling and extinguishing all shares apart from a single Ordinary share.”
- “A dividend of £10.0m was declared, but not paid, on 30 January 2025.”
