- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The members have performed a going concern assessment which indicates that, taking account of both base case and downside scenarios, the LLP will have sufficient funds, through funding from its ultimate parent, Fidelity National Information Services, Inc., to meet its liabilities as they fall due for at least 12 months from the date of approval of these financial statements, the going concern assessment period. This assessment is dependent on Fidelity National Information Services, Inc. not seeking repayment of any amounts currently due to the wider consolidated group and providing additional financial support during the going concern assessment period as required.”

Significant events
- “The current year shows an increase in both trade volumes and ASA on the previous year, driven by organic growth and increased activity. The LLP continues its ongoing strategy, which includes the targeting of new retail and institutional clients and through rigorous cost control. The LLP is expected to return to profitability in 2026 due to additional revenues secured and the reduced cost base following the completion of updates to the operating platform.”

Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. The comparison is only shown when the latest and prior accounts cover broadly equal-length periods — short or long stubs (typical around incorporation or a year-end change) are suppressed rather than misrepresented. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers
