| Net margin | -28.6% | -165.1% | — | — | -61.2% | |

| Gearing (liabilities / total assets) | — | — | 56.4% | 77.2% | — | |
| Current ratio | — | — | 0.26x | 0.28x | 0.30x | |
| Interest cover | 1.40x | -0.10x | -11.55x | -7.86x | -0.24x |
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. 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.

“After making enquiries, the Directors have a reasonable expectation that the Company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for a period of 12 months from the date of approval of these financial statements and on this basis the Directors have adopted the going concern in preparing the financial statements.”
Significant events
- “Aviva Investors REALM Ground Rent Unit Trust received redemption notices for 100% of units as at 31 December 2025. Whilst these redemptions had been received, redemption payments had been suspended due to the MVUs in place. Payments will only be made at the Manager's discretion once the suspension has been lifted and the unit price can be calculated with certainty.”
- “The Directors are in discussions with Aviva Investors Ground Rent HoldCo Limited regarding the proposed conversion of an outstanding loan balance of £5,165,564 into equity by way of a debt-for-equity swap. As at the date of approval of these financial statements, no binding agreement has been entered into and the transaction remains subject to negotiation and approval.”
