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

Margins divide P&L lines by turnover. 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. Sector-distribution context coming next.

Going concern

Affirmed

“The Directors are confident that, despite being closed to new business, the Society will have sufficient funds to continue to meet its liabilities as they fall due for a period of, but not limited to, 12 months from the date of approval of the Financial Statements. Therefore, they have considered it appropriate to continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting when preparing the Financial statements.”

Significant events

• “On 19 December 2025, JAB Insurance Holdings L.P. made a binding offer to purchase Utmost Life and Pensions Holdings Limited and its subsidiaries, which includes The Equitable Life Assurance Society. Subject to regulatory approval, this will result in a change to the ultimate owner to JAB Holding Company SARL ("JAB Holdings"), a company registered in Luxembourg.”
• “The Company is a defendant in legal proceedings arising from a customer claim in the ordinary course of business. The proceedings are at an early stage and the outcome remains uncertain. Based on legal advice received, the directors consider that it is not probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the claim. Accordingly, no provision has been recognised in these financial statements.”
