- Blick Rothenberg Audit LLP
- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- 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.”
Significant events
- “The Company experienced difficult trading conditions during the 2024/25 financial year with its distributable reserves significantly reduced and a substantial loss resulting in the financial year.”
- “At a General Meeting held on the 14 January 2025 a resolution was passed authorising the Company to seek a Court Order to enable the Company's share capital to be reduced. This Court Order was granted and this enabled the Company to meet the objectives of the SBP in place at the time primarily as regards meeting Withdrawal requests.”
- “A new SBP was put in place at the Annual General Meeting held in September 2024.”
- “Shareholder approval was given at a General Meeting held on the 26 March 2025. A new SBP was put in place, to facilitate first charge lending on commercial property (moving away from a residential development lending strategy).”
- “The Funding Adviser and Asset Manager Agreements terminated on 31 March 2025... and Proplend will be appointed as the Loan Originator and Asset Manager.”
- “On 14 January 2025, a special resolution was passed and subsequently confirmed by the courts that the capital of the company should be reduced by way of the nominal value of each of the shares in the capital of the company be reduced from £1.00 to £0.01.”

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
