The directors present the strategic report for the year ended 30 December 2025.

The principal activity of the Company during the year continued to be the provision of unsecured consumer loans. The company is wholly owned by Money in Minutes Limited and operates from its headquarters in London.

Throughout the year, the Company continued to operate against a backdrop of economic uncertainty, with elevated household living costs and ongoing pressure on consumer finances. Whilst these conditions supported continued demand for responsible access to credit, they also reinforced the importance of prudent underwriting, affordability assessments and effective portfolio management.

The Board remained focused on delivering sustainable growth while maintaining a disciplined approach to credit risk. During the year, the company continued to refine its lending criteria, enhance its credit decisioning processes and invest in operational efficiencies designed to improve customer outcomes and strengthen portfolio performance. The directors are satisfied with the progress made during the year and consider the company to be well positioned to continue executing its long-term strategy.

The Company remains committed to delivering fair customer outcomes and maintaining high standards of regulatory compliance. Consumer Duty principles continue to be embedded across the business, with ongoing monitoring, governance and product reviews to ensure that customers receive appropriate products, clear communications and good value throughout the customer journey.

The Board regularly reviews the principal risks facing the business and monitors emerging risks to ensure that appropriate mitigation measures remain in place.

Strategic risk continues to be one of the Company's key areas of focus. The consumer credit market remains subject to ongoing regulatory development, changing customer expectations and competitive pressures. The Board regularly reviews the Company's strategy, product offering, pricing and distribution channels to ensure that the business remains competitive while maintaining responsible lending standards.

Credit risk remains a significant consideration given the nature of the Company's activities. Robust affordability assessments, credit scoring models and ongoing monitoring of portfolio performance are used to manage the risk of customer default and maintain the quality of the loan book.

Macroeconomic conditions, including inflation, interest rates and employment trends, continue to influence customer affordability and operating costs. The Board monitors these factors closely and remains satisfied that the Company is appropriately positioned to respond to changes in the wider economic environment.

The Company recognises that its employees are fundamental to its continued success. Attracting, developing and retaining skilled colleagues remains a priority, supported by investment in training, employee engagement and wellbeing initiatives.

Liquidity and funding risk are managed through regular forecasting and ongoing monitoring of funding requirements to ensure that sufficient financial resources are available to support lending activities and operational commitments.

Regulatory compliance remains central to the Company's governance framework. Dedicated compliance and risk management functions oversee adherence to applicable legislation and Financial Conduct Authority requirements, with regular reporting provided to the Board.

The financial performance and position of the Company are presented in the financial statements.

The Board monitors a range of financial and operational key performance indicators to assess the Company's performance and support strategic decision-making. These include loan originations, value of lending, loan book quality, impairment levels, customer repayment performance, profitability and capital strength.

Turnover in the year increased by 5.5% from £50.5m to £53.3m and retained profit increased from £4,650,980 to £5,182,956. Both the number of loans and value of loans increased on 2024 levels whilst applying the principles to lending outlined in the business review section of this report.

During the year, the Company continued to deliver profitable growth while maintaining a disciplined approach to credit quality and responsible lending. The directors are satisfied with the Company's financial performance and balance sheet position at the year end and believe the business remains well placed for future growth.

The directors have had regard to their duties under Section 172 of the Companies Act 2006 and consider, in good faith, that the decisions taken during the year were those most likely to promote the long-term success of the Company for the benefit of its shareholder, whilst having appropriate regard to the interests of its wider stakeholders.

The Board recognises that long-term success depends upon maintaining strong relationships with customers, employees, shareholders, suppliers, regulators and the communities in which the Company operates.

Shareholder

The Company maintains regular communication with its parent company through scheduled Board meetings and management reporting. Financial performance, strategic priorities, regulatory developments, operational performance and business risks are reviewed throughout the year to support informed decision-making and long-term value creation.

Employees

The Company values the contribution of its employees and continues to invest in training, professional development and employee wellbeing. Regular communication and performance reviews support individual development, while remuneration and incentive arrangements align individual objectives with the Company's strategic priorities and commitment to delivering good customer outcomes.

Customers

Providing fair value and positive customer outcomes remains a core objective of the business. The Company continually reviews its products, lending processes and customer communications to ensure they remain appropriate for the target market. Customers experiencing financial difficulty are treated with understanding and in accordance with regulatory expectations and internal policies.

Suppliers

The Company seeks to build long-term relationships with suppliers who share its commitment to quality, resilience and ethical business practices. Supplier performance is monitored regularly to ensure that outsourced services continue to support the Company's operational and regulatory requirements.

Communities

The Company aims to make a positive contribution to the communities in which it operates by encouraging employee involvement in charitable activities and maintaining responsible business practices that support customers and local communities.

Environment

The Company remains committed to reducing its environmental impact where practicable. Measures including energy-efficient office facilities, digital document management and reduced paper consumption continue to support this objective. The Board remains supportive of initiatives that contribute towards environmental sustainability and the transition to a lower-carbon economy.

Government and regulators

The Company maintains a constructive relationship with its regulators and is committed to complying with all applicable legal and regulatory obligations. Compliance with Financial Conduct Authority requirements remains a key priority, supported by an established compliance function, ongoing monitoring and regular reporting to the Board. The Company continues to review its policies, procedures and governance arrangements to ensure they remain effective and aligned with evolving regulatory expectations.

On behalf of the board

The directors present their annual report and financial statements for the year ended 30 December 2025.

The principal activity of the company continued to be that of the provision of unsecured consumer loans.

The results for the year are set out on page 9.

Ordinary dividends were paid amounting to £nil (2024: £3,000,000). The directors do not recommend payment of a final dividend.

The directors who held office during the year and up to the date of signature of the financial statements were as follows:

The Company's policy is to maintain sufficient funding to support its lending activities and meet its financial obligations as they fall due. Cash flow forecasts are monitored regularly to ensure that expected repayments and available funding remain adequate. The Company has continued access to funding through a group credit facility which provides sufficient financial flexibility to support operations and future lending requirements.

Borrowings under the group credit facility are arranged at fixed interest rates for predetermined terms. This provides certainty over financing costs and cash flows while reducing exposure to movements in market interest rates.

Credit risk is inherent in the Company's lending activities and remains one of its principal business risks. The Company manages this risk through affordability assessments, credit scoring, prudent underwriting and ongoing monitoring of portfolio performance. During the year the Company continued to enhance its lending controls and credit risk management processes to support the long-term quality and resilience of the loan portfolio.

In accordance with the company's articles, a resolution proposing that JS. Audit Limited be reappointed as auditor of the company will be put at a General Meeting.

As the company has not consumed more than 40,000 kWh of energy in this reporting period, it qualifies as a low energy user under these regulations and is not required to report on its emissions, energy consumption or energy efficiency activities.

The directors are responsible for preparing the annual report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations.

Company law requires the directors to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law the directors have elected to prepare the financial statements in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards and applicable law). Under company law, the directors must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the company and of the profit or loss of the company for that period.

In preparing these financial statements, the directors are required to:

• select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;

• make judgements and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and

• state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; and

• prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the company will continue in business.

The directors are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the company’s transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the company and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

The company has chosen in accordance with Companies Act 2006, s.414C(11) to set out in the company's strategic report information required by Large and Medium-sized Companies and Groups (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008, Sch. 7 to be contained in the directors' report. It has done so in respect of the review of the business, principal risks and uncertainties, and future developments of the company.

So far as each person who was a director at the date of approving this report is aware, there is no relevant audit information of which the company’s auditor is unaware. Additionally, the directors individually have taken all the necessary steps that they ought to have taken as directors in order to make themselves aware of all relevant audit information and to establish that the company’s auditor is aware of that information.

We have audited the financial statements of Loans 2 Go Limited (the 'company') for the year ended 30 December 2025 which comprise the statement of income and retained earnings, the balance sheet and notes to the financial statements, including significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

In our opinion the financial statements:

• give a true and fair view of the state of the company's affairs as at 30 December 2025 and of its profit for the year then ended;

• have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and

• have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006.

Basis for opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC’s Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Conclusions relating to going concern

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.

Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the directors with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.

Other information

The other information comprises the information included in the annual report other than the financial statements and our auditor's report thereon. The directors are responsible for the other information contained within the annual report. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. Our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the course of the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact.

We have nothing to report in this regard.

Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006

In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of our audit:

• the information given in the strategic report and the directors' report for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and

• the strategic report and the directors' report have been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.

In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the strategic report or the directors' report.

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:

• adequate accounting records have not been kept, or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or

• the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or

• certain disclosures of directors' remuneration specified by law are not made; or

• we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit.

As explained more fully in the Statement of Directors' Responsibilities included within the Directors' Report the directors are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, the directors are responsible for assessing the company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud, is detailed below.

Based on our understanding of the company and sector, we identified that the principal risks of non-compliance with laws and regulations related to, but was not limited to, the Companies Act 2006, distributable profits, UK tax, employment, pension, health and safety and environmental legislation as well as non-compliance with the regulatory requirements of the Financial Conduct Authority. We considered the extent to which non-compliance might have a material effect on the financial statements. We also considered those laws and regulations that have a direct impact on the preparation of the financial statements such as UK financial reporting standards and the Companies Act 2006.

We evaluated management’s incentives and opportunities for fraudulent manipulation of the financial statements (including the risk of override of controls) and determined that the principal risks were related to management bias in accounting estimates and judgements and the risk of fraud in revenue recognition.

Our procedures to respond to risks identified included the following:

• reviewing the financial statement disclosures and testing to supporting documentation to assess compliance with provisions of relevant laws and regulations described as having a direct effect on the financial statements;

• enquiring of management about actual and potential litigation and claims, their policies and procedures to prevent and detect fraud as well as whether they have knowledge of any actual, suspected or alleged fraud;

• performing analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected relationships that may indicate risks of material misstatement due to fraud;

• reading minutes of meetings of those charged with governance and reviewing regulatory correspondence with the Financial Conduct Authority;

• obtaining an understanding of provisions and holding discussions with management to understand the basis of recognition or non-recognition of tax provisions; and

• in addressing the risk of fraud through management override of controls: testing the appropriateness of journal entries; assessing whether the accounting estimates, judgements and decisions made by management are indicative of a potential bias; and evaluating the business rationale of any significant transactions that are unusual or outside the normal course of business.

We also communicated relevant identified laws and regulations and potential fraud risks to all engagement team members and remained alert to any indications of fraud or non-compliance with laws and regulations throughout the audit.

There are inherent limitations in our audit procedures described above. The more removed that laws and regulations are from financial transactions, the less likely it is that we would become aware of non-compliance. Auditing standards also limit the audit procedures required to identify non-compliance with laws and regulations to enquiry of the directors and other management and the inspection of regulatory and legal correspondence, if any. Material misstatements that arise due to fraud can be harder to detect than those that arise from error as they may involve deliberate concealment or collusion.

A further description of our responsibilities is available on the Financial Reporting Council’s website at: https://www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditor's report.

Use of our report

This report is made solely to the company's member in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the company's member those matters we are required to state to the member in an auditor's report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the company and the company's member, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

There was no other comprehensive income for either the current or prior year.

Loans 2 Go Limited is a private company limited by shares incorporated in England and Wales. The registered office is Bridge Studios, 34A Deodar Road, Putney, London, SW15 2NN.

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with FRS 102 “The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland” (“FRS 102”) and the requirements of the Companies Act 2006.

The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the company. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.

The financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost convention. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.

This company is a qualifying entity for the purposes of FRS 102, being a member of a group where the parent of that group prepares publicly available consolidated financial statements, including this company, which are intended to give a true and fair view of the assets, liabilities, financial position and profit or loss of the group. The company has therefore taken advantage of exemptions from the following disclosure requirements:

• Section 4 ‘Statement of Financial Position’ – Reconciliation of the opening and closing number of shares;

• Section 7 ‘Statement of Cash Flows’ – Presentation of a statement of cash flow and related notes and disclosures;

• Section 11 ‘Basic Financial Instruments’ and Section 12 ‘Other Financial Instrument Issues’ – Carrying amounts, interest income/expense and net gains/losses for each category of financial instrument; basis of determining fair values; details of collateral, loan defaults or breaches, details of hedges, hedging fair value changes recognised in profit or loss and in other comprehensive income;

• Section 33 ‘Related Party Disclosures’ – Compensation for key management personnel.

The financial statements of the company are consolidated in the financial statements of Money in Minutes Limited. These consolidated financial statements are available from Companies House, Crown Way, Cardiff, CF14 3UZ.

The company has taken advantage of the exemption under section 400 of the Companies Act 2006 not to prepare consolidated accounts. The financial statements present information about the company as an individual entity and not about its group.

The accounts have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes that the company will have sufficient funds to continue to pay its debts as and when they fall due and thus continue to trade for a period of not less than 12 months from the date of signing these financial statements. In making their assessment the directors have reviewed and considered the expected performance across the company's loan book. They have also taken into consideration the timing of when key debts fall due and the impact these have on expected cash flows.true

The company has a credit facility which is due for renewal on 1 January 2026. In year, these facilities have been renewed for a further period which is due to expire on 30 July 2030.

Having due consideration to each of the above factors, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future and so the accounts are prepared on a going concern basis.

Turnover represents interest receivable on unsecured loans during the period net of redress payments, and amounts invoiced on the sale of debts.

Interest receivable is recognised on an amortised cost basis, as adjusted for amounts not expected to be recovered. Redress payments are accounted for on an accruals basis based on determination by the company or independent assessment by the financial ombudsman service (or estimate thereof).

Amounts invoiced on the sale of debts are recognised at the point of sale.

Intangible assets acquired separately from a business are recognised at cost and are subsequently measured at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses.

Intangible assets acquired on business combinations are recognised separately from goodwill at the acquisition date where it is probable that the expected future economic benefits that are attributable to the asset will flow to the entity and the fair value of the asset can be measured reliably; the intangible asset arises from contractual or other legal rights; and the intangible asset is separable from the entity.

Amortisation is recognised so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets less their residual values over their useful lives on the following bases:

Tangible fixed assets are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost, net of depreciation and any impairment losses.

Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost of assets less their residual values over their useful lives on the following bases:

The gain or loss arising on the disposal of an asset is determined as the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying value of the asset, and is credited or charged to profit or loss.

All borrowing costs are recognised in the profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred.

At each reporting period end date, the company reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible and intangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any). Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the company estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.

Recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset for which the estimates of future cash flows have not been adjusted.

If the recoverable amount of an asset (or cash-generating unit) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset (or cash-generating unit) is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss, unless the relevant asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation decrease.

Recognised impairment losses are reversed if, and only if, the reasons for the impairment loss have ceased to apply. Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset (or cash-generating unit) is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but so that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset (or cash-generating unit) in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss, unless the relevant asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case the reversal of the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation increase.

Cash and cash equivalents are basic financial assets and include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities.

The company has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 ‘Basic Financial Instruments’ and Section 12 ‘Other Financial Instruments Issues’ of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments.

Financial instruments are recognised in the company's balance sheet when the company becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the financial statements, when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

Basic financial assets, which include debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial assets classified as receivable within one year are not amortised.

Financial assets, other than those held at fair value through profit and loss, are assessed for indicators of impairment at each reporting end date.

Financial assets are impaired where there is objective evidence that, as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the financial asset, the estimated future cash flows have been affected. If an asset is impaired, the impairment loss is the difference between the carrying amount and the present value of the estimated cash flows discounted at the asset’s original effective interest rate. The impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss.

If there is a decrease in the impairment loss arising from an event occurring after the impairment was recognised, the impairment is reversed. The reversal is such that the current carrying amount does not exceed what the carrying amount would have been, had the impairment not previously been recognised. The impairment reversal is recognised in profit or loss.

Financial assets are derecognised only when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire or are settled, or when the company transfers the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to another entity, or if some significant risks and rewards of ownership are retained but control of the asset has transferred to another party that is able to sell the asset in its entirety to an unrelated third party.

Financial liabilities and equity instruments are classified according to the substance of the contractual arrangements entered into. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the company after deducting all of its liabilities.

Basic financial liabilities, including creditors and loans from fellow group companies, are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortised.

Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method.

Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. Amounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade creditors are recognised initially at transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

Financial liabilities are derecognised when the company’s contractual obligations expire or are discharged or cancelled.

Equity instruments issued by the company are recorded at the proceeds received, net of transaction costs. Dividends payable on equity instruments are recognised as liabilities once they are no longer at the discretion of the company.

The tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax.

The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from net profit as reported in the income statement because it excludes items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and it further excludes items that are never taxable or deductible. The company’s liability for current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting end date.

Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all timing differences and deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits. Such assets and liabilities are not recognised if the timing difference arises from goodwill or from the initial recognition of other assets and liabilities in a transaction that affects neither the tax profit nor the accounting profit.

The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each reporting end date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered. Deferred tax is calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period when the liability is settled or the asset is realised. Deferred tax is charged or credited in the income statement, except when it relates to items charged or credited directly to equity, in which case the deferred tax is also dealt with in equity. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when the company has a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets and liabilities and the deferred tax assets and liabilities relate to taxes levied by the same tax authority.

The costs of short-term employee benefits are recognised as a liability and an expense, unless those costs are required to be recognised as part of the cost of stock or fixed assets.

The cost of any unused holiday entitlement is recognised in the period in which the employee’s services are received.

Termination benefits are recognised immediately as an expense when the company is demonstrably committed to terminate the employment of an employee or to provide termination benefits.

Payments to defined contribution retirement benefit schemes are charged as an expense as they fall due.

Rentals payable under operating leases, including any lease incentives received, are charged to profit or loss on a straight line basis over the term of the relevant lease except where another more systematic basis is more representative of the time pattern in which economic benefits from the leased asset are consumed.

Other operating income

Other operating income comprises commissions receivable on brokerage services and management charges receivable from group companies which are recognised on an accruals basis.

In the application of the company’s accounting policies, the directors are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods.

The following judgements (apart from those involving estimates) have had the most significant effect on amounts recognised in the financial statements.

The directors have determined whether there are any indicators of impairment in the company's tangible and intangible assets. Factors taken into consideration in reaching such a decision include the economic viability and expected future financial performance of the asset and where it is a component of a larger cash generating unit, the viability and expected future performance of that unit.

The estimates and assumptions which have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets and liabilities are as follows.

Where an indication of impairment exists, the directors will carry out an impairment review to determine the recoverable amount, which is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. The value in use calculation requires the directors to estimate the future cash flows expected to arise from the asset or the cash generating unit, and a suitable discount rate in order to calculate the present value.

The company establishes a provision for receivables that are estimated to not be recoverable. Debts are automatically written off when they reach a certain age. In addition to those debts, the company makes full provision for debts due from customers that have an individual voluntary arrangement, and include a further provision against all other debts based on historic expected rate of default according to the risk profile of the loan.

The company estimates accrued interest receivable based on historic rates of recovery of interest earned on the loan book at the year-end date, and makes provision against that estimate based on historic expected rate of default according to the risk profile of the loan on which the interest is earned.

Tangible fixed assets are depreciated over their useful lives taking into account residual values, where appropriate. The actual lives of the assets and residual values are assessed annually and may vary depending on a number of factors. In re-assessing asset lives, factors such as technological innovation, product life cycles, and maintenance programmes are taken into account. Residual value assessments consider issues such as future market conditions, the remaining life of the asset and projected disposal values.

An analysis of the company's turnover is as follows:

Information concerning non-audit services is included in the consolidated financial statements of Money in Minutes Limited.

The average monthly number of persons (including directors) employed by the company during the year was:

Their aggregate remuneration comprised:

The number of directors for whom retirement benefits are accruing under defined contribution schemes amounted to 6 (2024 - 6).

The actual charge for the year can be reconciled to the expected charge for the year based on the profit or loss and the standard rate of tax as follows:

Details of the company's subsidiaries at 30 December 2025 are as follows:

Amounts owed by group undertakings are unsecured, interest free, and repayable on demand.

Amounts owed to group undertakings are unsecured and payable on demand.

Loans from group undertakings are not subject to formal terms. The borrowing is unsecured, interest bearing, and cannot be recalled within 12 months from the year end date.

The company has provided security over all of its assets and liabilities as part of the group's borrowing facility.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset where the company has a legally enforceable right to do so. The following is the analysis of the deferred tax balances (after offset) for financial reporting purposes:

The deferred tax asset set out above is expected to reverse within 12 months and relates to accelerated capital allowances that are expected to mature within the same period.

The company has gross other timing differences carried forward at 31 December 2025 of £3,525,222. These other timing differences have not been recognised as a deferred tax asset calculated at 25% of £881,305 as there is uncertainty around the timing of their utilisation.

The company operates a defined contribution pension scheme for all qualifying employees. The assets of the scheme are held separately from those of the company in an independently administered fund.

Profit and loss account - includes all current and prior year profits and losses net of distributions to shareholders.

Capital redemption reserve - represents the nominal value of shares repurchased by the company.

The immediate parent company has given a security guarantee in respect of its loan borrowing, which includes a guarantee over the assets and undertaking of Loans 2 Go Limited.

At the year end date the directors consider the ultimate parent undertaking to be UK Holdings Trust, a Trust entity established in the United States of America.

The immediate parent company is Money in Minutes Limited, a company registered in England and Wales.
