Ratios
Computed from the line items above — sparklines read oldest → newest
| Ratio | Trend | 2024-12-31 | 2025-12-31 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Gearing (liabilities / total assets) | 78.6% | 78.4% |
Gearing is liabilities over total assets. Current ratio is current assets over creditors falling due within one year. Interest cover is operating profit over absolute finance costs. Margin ratios are hidden where reported turnover is too small relative to profit to yield a meaningful figure — typical of holding companies whose income is mostly subsidiary dividends rather than trading revenue. Sector-distribution context coming next.
Audit & accounting basis

- Reporting scope
- Standalone (parent only)
- Auditor
- Ernst & Young LLP
- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“After making enquiries, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the Company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for a period of at least twelve months (to 27 March 2027) from the date of approval of the financial statements. For this reason, they continue to adopt, and to consider appropriate, the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.”
Significant events
- “The company's financial results are affected by a number of external factors, including, trends in claims developments, general economic and market conditions, government policy and legislation and exchange rate fluctuations. The impact of these events on IFRS performance and Solvency II may differ due to their different measurement and recognition criteria.”
Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers
