- 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 of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.”

- “In February 2024, Flywire announced a global restructuring plan designed to improve operational efficiencies, reduce operating costs, and better align our workforce. Headcount was reduced by 14% and £33M restructuring costs incurred.”
- “In March 2026, the directors resolved to capitalise amounts due to the parent undertaking of £40m, included in creditors, into equity to ensure the company maintains sufficient capital to meet the regulatory requirements.”

Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. Periods don't have to be exactly 12 months apart — a long or short period (typical around incorporation or year-end changes) will distort the comparison. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers
