- Going concern
- Affirmed
“After reviewing the Group's forecasts and projections, considering the continuing uncertain macro-economic outlook and the likelihood of the risk scenarios outlined above, the Directors consider that the Company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. The Company therefore continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.”
Significant events
- “On 4 November 2024 the directors approved the sale of the entire trade and assets of BC Services (UK) Limited to Home Technology Finance Limited as part of an exercise to simplify the structure of the BCH Group. On completion of this transaction, BCS ceased to trade. The services previously provided to the Company (Corporate administration, cash collection, debt management, contract origination, equipment management (repairs, maintenance, refurbishment, installation, removal, warehousing) and the supply of new products) are now performed by employees who were transferred from BCS to the Company via TUPE. The Company continues to own the significant proportion of the assets of the BCH group including the rental agreements with domestic and commercial customers.”
- “In March 2023 an additional facility and further advance was agreed by WPC 2 Limited and the loan provider which effectively extends the term of the loan to May 2026.”
- “On 28 November 2024 the outstanding balance of the loan originally undertaken by the Group's parent WPC 2 Limited in September 2020 was novated to BC Holdings (UK) Limited. Under the terms of the Novation Agreement Home Technology Finance Limited remained a guarantor of the loan.”
- “On 12 December 2024 WPC 2 Limited declared a dividend in specie to transfer the entire share capital of BC Holdings (UK) Limited to Weight Partners Corporate Limited.”
