- Affirmed
“The directors have assessed the appropriateness of preparing the Group and Company's financial statements on a going concern basis in consideration of the period up to and including Q3 2026. The directors believe the Group and the Company are well-positioned for sustainable profit growth in 2025 and beyond, and at 31 December 2024, the Group had cash and cash equivalents of $80.4m (2023: $103.8m). ... Based on the assessment outlined above, the directors confirm that while subject to inherent risks, the Group has sufficient liquidity to support its assessment as a going concern for the current reporting period.”

Significant events
- “During 2024, the Group completed a capital raise through the issuance of Series X preferred shares to existing and new investors for gross aggregate proceeds of $266.6m.”
- “During 2024, the Group changed its focus to prioritise sustainable growth, profitability and long-term financial resilience. This strategic shift centred on optimising the cost base, improving capital efficiency and investing in initiatives that strengthen both the operational efficiency and customer experience.”
- “As part of this change in the Groups strategy, costs were deliberately scaled back in selected areas of the business, through the streamlining and further consolidation of processes between the WorldRemit and Sendwave brands. This resulted in a headcount decrease from 1,172 to 1,014, reflecting the elimination of duplicated roles and improved process efficiency.”
- “A pivotal achievement as part of this process was the introduction of the US digital wallets, which offers a secure method for customers to store their funds within the United States. This feature is expected to be rolled out to other markets.”
