Significant events
- “In April 2025, the Group successfully completed a process to refinance its corporate facility and mezzanine element of its private securitisation facility with a new partner. This exercise resulted in significantly improved terms and an extension of the maturity date to 2027.”
- “In November 2025, the Group successfully completed its second public securitisation transaction, East One 2025-1 Plc for a total issuance of approximately £260m. The transaction attracted strong investor demand and pricing was significantly improved compared with the debut issuance in 2024.”
- “In February 2026, following an extensive period to build and test, Equifinance launched its new proprietary loan origination system. The new solution materially improves the broker and customer journey, will enable the Group to achieve significant economies of scale, and reduces reliance on third party providers.”
