Half year results for the six months ended 31 March 2026
Delivering strong earnings growth momentum
IntegraFin Holdings plc ("IHP", or "the Group") operator of Transact, the UK's premium investment platform for clients and UK financial advisers, is pleased to report its half year results.
IHP continued to deliver strong growth in earnings, with underlying profit before tax (PBT) up 16% to £43.9m and underlying earnings per share (EPS) up 14% to 10.0p. This was driven by strong net inflows and favourable market movements in the period, in combination with the ongoing delivery of cost management initiatives and the operational leverage inherent in the Group's business model. The Group's cost management programme is progressing in line with guidance.
Financial and operational highlights
•
Closing FUD of £77.8bn was up 18% versus the same period last year (HY25: £65.9bn), with strong net inflows of £2.4bn, up 14% (HY25: £2.1bn).
•
Group revenue increased 11% to £85.8m (HY25: £77.2m), driven by higher average daily FUD.
•
Underlying PBT increased 16% to £43.9m (HY25: £37.9m). Reported PBT increased 47% to £43.9m (HY25: £29.8m).
•
Underlying EPS increased 14% to 10.0p (HY25: 8.8p). Reported EPS increased 59% to 10.0p (HY25: 6.3p).
•
The Transact platform client base increased 6% to 254.7k (HY25: 241.2k), driven by our strategy of combining high-quality client service and leading proprietary technology.
•
The Board has declared a first interim dividend of 3.8 pence per share for the six months to 31 March 2026 (HY25: 3.3pps) which will be payable on 26 June 2026 to ordinary shareholders on the register on 29 May 2026. The ex-dividend date will be 28 May 2026.
Outlook and guidance
•
Transact is well positioned to continue capturing and growing a strong share of adviser platform market net inflows in FY26 and beyond. During HY26, our share of net flows to the adviser platform market was c.25%. Additionally, despite ongoing market volatility, we maintain a strong FUD position, with average daily FUD for April 2026 at £80.6bn and closing FUD on 30 April 2026 of £81.4bn.
•
We remain on track to deliver on our guidance that full year cost growth for FY26 and FY27 is limited to c.3% per annum. Implementation of the Group's cost management initiatives is progressing well, and, as previously guided, we expect the reduction in the rate of FY26 cost increases to be weighted towards H2 as the benefits of initiatives phase through.
•
To support Transact's market-leading proposition, the Group continues to invest in AI and automation enhancements. We expect the technology investment to create a more efficient business and support profit margin expansion over time.
•
The combination of the Group's revenue growth fundamentals and realising savings from the Group's cost management initiatives puts IHP in a strong position tocontinue to accelerate profit growth and enhance profit margin in the coming years, driven by recurring revenue and scale benefits.

Alex Scott, IHP Group Chief Executive Officer, commented:
"I am pleased to report that the Group has delivered a strong first half of the year. Transact has demonstrated its resilience and grown its FUD by attracting increased net inflows to the platform, driven by the strength of its client service focused proposition and leading proprietary technology.
With strong net inflows and broadly supportive market movements, average daily FUD rose, driving higher revenue. Additionally, the implementation of our cost management programme drove increasing profitability, and a PBT margin for the period over 51%.
The Group continues to make ongoing improvements to our proprietary technology proposition, and we are delivering on our integrations-focused strategy. Through the development of a new Transact Application Programming Interface (API), we have enabled greater reliability, richer data flows, and enhanced opportunities for automation.
We also recognise recent rapid improvements in AI capability. Our investment programme incorporates automation and AI opportunities to enhance our proprietary technology platform and the productivity of the Group's support functions. We have commenced activities to incorporate AI enhancements through the Group's activities including software development, Group support functions, and the Transact platform proposition for clients and advisers.
We are also confident in the ability of UK financial advice firms to leverage the productivity benefits of new AI tools to expand their businesses. More efficient advice firms can serve a larger client base, which will drive growth of assets under advice and consequently over time drive growing FUD onto the Transact platform. Alongside this however, we are clear in our view that the human relationship element of financial advice will remain critical, with AI augmenting but not replacing the trust and accountability elements of regulated personal financial advice.
Three core levers drive our earnings growth: enhancements to our market-leading adviser platform proposition; our FUD and revenue growth dynamics; and our cost management initiatives. We continue to execute on all three levers to grow shareholder returns and we look forward to the second half of the year."

Financial review
Headlines
During HY26 the Group's platform business continued to demonstrate strong performance in attracting and retaining advised business. The primary measure of this success was FUD growth, which was up 18% to £77.8 billion (HY25: £65.9 billion)* as a result of both record gross inflows and market growth, despite increased volatility in global financial markets towards the end of the period. The Group also continued to grow its market penetration, with platform clients up 6% at 254,667 (HY25: 241,197)*.
As a result of the FUD growth, Group revenue increased strongly, up 11% to £85.8 million (HY25: £77.2 million).
The growth in Group revenue was partly offset by the 4% increase in underlying administrative expense from £44.7 million in HY25 to £46.4 million in HY26, with expense growth in comparison to prior periods slowing as a result of the cost management initiatives being implemented.
Profit before tax of £43.9 million (both statutory and underlying) rose by 16% compared with HY25 underlying profit before tax of £37.9 million*, as a result of the above, and by 47% compared with HY25 statutory profit before tax of £29.8 million, which included a £7.5 million impairment of goodwill and other intangible assets.
Diluted earnings per share (EPS) were 10.0p, compared with HY25 diluted EPS of 6.3p and underlying diluted EPS 8.8p*.
* Alternative performance measures (APMs) are indicated with an asterisk.
APMs are financial measures which are not defined by IFRS. They are used in order to provide better insight into the performance of the Group. Further details are provided in the glossary.

HY26 FUD closed the period up 18% on HY25 at £77.8 billion.
Net flow performance improved by 14% year on year, to £2.4 billion (HY25: £2.1 billion), or 3.2% (HY25: 3.3%) of opening FUD, which was 6.4% (HY25: 6.6%) on an annualised basis, driven by growth of net transfers in from competitor platforms.
HY26 has seen record levels of gross inflows and strong net flow performance. Advisers have continued to be attracted to the Group's Transact platform as a result of our proposition, including market-leading service and continued functionality enhancements, resulting in an increase of 18% in gross inflows to £6.0 billion (HY25: £5.1 billion).
Outflows increased 20% to £3.6 billion (HY25: £3.0 billion) with the annualised outflow rate as a percentage of FUD, increasing from 9% in HY25 to 10% in HY26.
Back-office technology
At the end of HY26 the number of CURO licence users was 3,393 (HY25: 3,094), an increase of 10%.

Platform revenue
HY26 investment platform revenue increased by £8.5 million to £83.2 million (HY25: £74.7 million). Investment platform revenue comprises three elements, 99% (HY25: 99%) of which is from a recurring source.
Annual charge income (an annual, ad valorem tiered fee on FUD) and wrapper fee income (quarterly fixed wrapper fees for certain available tax wrapper types) are recurring. Other income is composed primarily of dealing charges.
Average daily FUD for the year, arising from the performance of the assets in client portfolios, increased by 17% in HY26 to £77.5 billion (HY25: £66.3 billion). Annual charge income increased 14% to £76.4 million (HY25: £67.3 million). The lower percentage increase in annual charge income in comparison to average FUD resulted from a reduction in the blended rate annual charge payable by clients. This naturally occurs as a result of a greater proportion of individual client FUD benefits from progressively lower fees as portfolios increase in value.
Recurring wrapper fee income decreased by 10% to £6.0 million (HY25: £6.7 million), with the impact of the introduction of a single wrapper fee per pension type within family-linked pensions in April 2025 more than offsetting the increase in wrapper numbers.
Other income rose marginally to £0.8 million with HY25 at £0.7 million.
Back-office technology revenue
HY26 CURO licence revenue was £2.6 million (HY25: £2.5 million), an increase of 4%. This was driven by an increase in recurring revenue from additional CURO user licences.
Administrative expenses
Administrative expenses increased by £1.7 million (4%) to £46.4 million on an underlying basis, but fell by £6.4 million (12%) on a statutory basis mainly due to the £7.5 million impairment of goodwill and other intangible assets recognised in HY25.

Employee costs
Employee costs increased by 8% due to a combination of factors including increased headcount, which grew by 2% from an average of 672 in HY25 to an average of 684 in HY26, and providing competitive remuneration to our employees, including annual salary reviews which took place in H2 FY25.
Occupancy costs
Occupancy costs decreased by £1.0 million to £0.3 million, following the receipt of rebates and the release of provisions in relation to costs previously recognised on both the new and previous London office.
Regulatory and professional fees
Regulatory and professional fees increased by £0.3 million.
Depreciation and amortisation
Depreciation and amortisation decreased by £0.5 million to £1.0 million, driven by lower depreciation of the right of use asset on the lease of the new London office compared with the previous office.
Other costs
Other costs increased by £0.5 million in HY26, predominantly caused by higher IT costs as a result of the continued investment in enhancing the operational performance of the business.
Non-underlying expenses
There were no non-underlying expenses in HY26. HY25 non-underlying administrative expenses totalled £8.1 million, primarily comprising £7.5 million costs relating to an impairment of goodwill and intangible assets arising from the T4A acquisition.
Net gain attributable to policyholder returns
Tax relief due to shareholders amounted to £1.4 million in HY26 (HY25: £1.5 million). This represents the net amount arising from gains or losses attributable to policyholder returns, offset by the related policyholder charge or credit, as presented in the Statement of Comprehensive Income. The amount arises from life insurance company tax requirements and is therefore subject to period‑end valuation, which is inherently sensitive to market conditions prevailing at the reporting date.
Tax
The Group has operations in three tax jurisdictions: the UK, Australia and the Isle of Man. This results in profits being subject to tax at three different rates. However, 96% of the Group's profit is earned in the UK.
Shareholder tax on ordinary activities for the period increased by £2.3 million (27%), to £10.9 million (HY25: £8.6 million) due to the increase in taxable profit.
The Group's effective rate of tax over the period was 25% (HY25: 29%). The main reason for the fall compared to HY25 is that the prior period included impairment of the goodwill and intangible assets relating to the T4A acquisition, which were not allowable expenses for corporation tax purposes.
The Group tax strategy can be found at: https://www.integrafin.co.uk/ legal-and-regulatory-information/.
Dividends
During the six month period to 31 March 2026, IHP paid a second interim dividend of £26.3 million to shareholders in respect of financial year 2025 (second interim dividend in respect of financial year 2024: 23.9 million). This was in addition to the first interim dividend of £10.9 million (first interim dividend in respect of financial year 2024: £10.6 million), which was paid in July 2025.
In respect of the six months to 31 March 2026, the Board has declared a first interim dividend of 3.8 pence per ordinary share, or £12.6 million (March 2025: 3.3 pence per ordinary share, £10.9 million). This will be payable on 26 June 2026 to ordinary shareholders on the register on 29 May 2026. The ex-dividend date will be 28 May 2026.

Net assets increased 3%, or £7.4 million, in the period to £232.3 million, and the material movements on the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position were as follows:
Non-current assets
Non-current assets have decreased due to investments moving to current assets as they matured within one year of the reporting date, and the depreciation of Property, Plant and Equipment and Right of Use assets.
Current assets
Current assets increased by 9%, or £25.9 million, during the period to £316.6 million. This was as a result of the cash flows generated from operating activities, some of which have subsequently been invested in gilts.
Current liabilities
Current liabilities increased by 25%, or £10.9 million, during the period to £54.1 million. This was largely due to an increase in the current provision relating to IntegraLife UK Ltd (ILUK) policyholder reserves.
Non-current liabilities
Non-current liabilities increased by 5%, or £3.0 million, during the period to £66.2 million. This was largely due to an increase in the ILUK policyholder deferred tax liability.
Policyholder assets and liabilities
ILUK and IntegraLife International Ltd (ILInt) write only unit-linked insurance policies. They match the assets and liabilities of their linked policies such that, in their own individual statements of financial position, these items always net off exactly. These line items are required to be shown under IFRS in the Interim Condensed Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income, the Interim Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Position and the Interim Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows but have zero net effect.
Cash and investments held for the benefit of ILUK and ILInt policyholders have risen to £35,426.7 million (September 2025: £33,744.9 million). This increase of 5% is entirely consistent with the rise in total FUD on the investment platform.
Capital
Integrafin Financial Arrangements Ltd (IFAL) is subject to Investment Firms Prudential Regime (IFPR) regulatory capital and liquidity rules. These prudential rules require the calculation of capital requirements reflecting "K factor" requirements that cover potential harms arising from business activities. The K factors are calculated using formulae for assets and cash under administration and client orders handled.
The regulatory capital requirements and resources in ILUK and ILInt are calculated by reference to economic capital-based regimes, which are Solvency UK for ILUK and the Isle of Man Risk-Based Capital Regime for ILInt.
Each of the regulated entities maintains a healthy surplus of regulatory capital over their requirement, as shown in the below tables:

Liquidity
The Group holds liquid assets in the form of cash and cash equivalents and UK Government securities ('UK gilts'), the majority of which are available with immediate effect.
The main uses of liquid assets include:
§ holdings for regulatory and operational purposes, including risk appetite; and
§ coverage of policyholder returns in the life insurance businesses.
The liquidity buffer, which allows the Group to operate without triggering internal risk appetites, having sufficient capacity to manage potential future changes to regulatory capital requirements, and managing the timing of intra-group dividend payments from subsidiaries to the group company, has increased by £2.1 million during the first six months of the financial year.

INDEPENDENT REVIEW REPORT TO INTEGRAFIN HOLDINGS PLC
Conclusion
We have been engaged by IntegraFin Holdings plc (the 'Company') to review the condensed set of financial statements in the half-yearly financial report for the six months ended 31 March 2026 which comprises the Interim Condensed Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income, the Interim Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Position, the Interim Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows, the Interim Condensed Consolidated Statement of Changes in Equity and the related notes 1 to 23. We have read the other information contained in the half yearly financial report and considered whether it contains any apparent misstatements or material inconsistencies with the information in the condensed set of financial statements.
Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the condensed set of financial statements in the half-yearly financial report for the six months ended 31 March 2026 is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with UK adopted International Accounting Standard 34 and the Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules of the United Kingdom's Financial Conduct Authority.
Basis for Conclusion
We conducted our review in accordance with International Standard on Review Engagements 2410 (UK) "Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity" (ISRE) issued by the Financial Reporting Council. A review of interim financial information consists of making enquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.
As disclosed in note 1, the annual financial statements of the Company are prepared in accordance with UK adopted international accounting standards. The condensed set of financial statements included in this half-yearly financial report has been prepared in accordance with UK adopted International Accounting Standard 34, "Interim Financial Reporting".
Conclusions Relating to Going Concern
Based on our review procedures, which are less extensive than those performed in an audit as described in the Basis for Conclusion section of this report, nothing has come to our attention to suggest that management have inappropriately adopted the going concern basis of accounting or that management have identified material uncertainties relating to going concern that are not appropriately disclosed.
This conclusion is based on the review procedures performed in accordance with this ISRE, however future events or conditions may cause the entity to cease to continue as a going concern.
Responsibilities of the directors
The directors are responsible for preparing the half-yearly financial report in accordance with the Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules of the United Kingdom's Financial Conduct Authority.
In preparing the half-yearly financial report, 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.
Auditor's Responsibilities for the review of the financial information
In reviewing the half-yearly report, we are responsible for expressing to the Company a conclusion on the condensed set of financial statements in the half-yearly financial report. Our conclusion, including our Conclusions Relating to Going Concern, are based on procedures that are less extensive than audit procedures, as described in the Basis for Conclusion paragraph of this report.
Use of our report
This report is made solely to the Company in accordance with guidance contained in International Standard on Review Engagements 2410 (UK) "Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity" issued by the Financial Reporting Council. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the company, for our work, for this report, or for the conclusions we have formed.

Notes to the Financial Statements (unaudited)
1. Basis of preparation
The interim condensed consolidated financial statements (financial statements) have been prepared in accordance with UK adopted International Accounting Standard 34 and the Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules (the DTR) of the UK's Financial Conduct Authority (the UK FCA).
The set of financial statements has been prepared by applying the accounting policies and presentation that were applied in the preparation of the Group's published consolidated financial statements for the year ended 30 September 2025, which were prepared in accordance with UK-adopted International Accounting Standards (IASs).
The financial information contained in these financial statements are unaudited and do not constitute statutory accounts within the meaning of Section 434 of the Companies Act 2006. The information has been reviewed by the company's auditor, Ernst & Young LLP, and their report is presented on pages 11-12.
The comparative financial information for the year ended 30 September 2025 in this interim report constitute statutory accounts for that year.
The statutory accounts for 30 September 2025 have been delivered to the Registrar of Companies. The auditor's report on those accounts was unqualified, did not draw attention to any matters by way of emphasis, and did not contain a statement under 498(2) or 498(3) of the Companies Act 2006.
These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Annual Report and Accounts for the year ended 30 September 2025. The Group's accounting policies, areas of significant judgement and the key sources of estimation uncertainty are consistent with those applied to the consolidated financial statements as at, and for, the year ended 30 September 2025.
Going Concern
The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, following an assessment by the board.
Going concern is assessed over the 12 month period from when the Interim Results are approved, and the board has concluded that the Group has adequate resources, liquidity and capital to continue in operational existence for at least this period. This is supported by:
· The current financial position of the Group;
o The Group maintains a conservative balance sheet and manages and monitors solvency and liquidity on an ongoing basis, ensuring that it has sufficient financial resources for the foreseeable future.
o As at 31 March 2026, the Group had £258.9 million of shareholder cash and cash equivalents and £31.7 million gilt investments on the Interim Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Position, demonstrating that liquidity remains strong.
· Detailed cash flow and working capital projections.
· Stress testing of liquidity, profitability and regulatory capital, taking account of principal risks and possible adverse changes in both the economic and geopolitical climate. These scenarios provide assurance that the Group has sufficient capital and liquidity to operate under stressed conditions.
When making this assessment, the board has taken into consideration both the Group's current performance and the future outlook, including political and geopolitical instability, and the high degree of unpredictability affecting global markets and economies around the world. The environment remains challenging, but our financial and operational performance has been positive throughout, and the Group's fundamentals remain strong.
Stress and scenario testing has been carried out, in order to understand the potential financial impacts of severe, yet plausible, scenarios on the Group. This assessment incorporated a number of stress tests covering a broad range of scenarios, including a cyber attack, system and process failures, depressed markets, and climate-related impacts.
Having conducted detailed cash flow and working capital projections, and stress-tested liquidity, profitability and regulatory capital; taking account of the economic challenges mentioned above; the board is satisfied that the Group is well placed to manage its business risks. The board is also satisfied that it will be able to operate within the regulatory capital limits imposed by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), Prudential Regulation Authority (PRA), and Isle of Man Financial Services Authority (IoM FSA).
The board has concluded that the Group has adequate resources to continue its operations, including operating in surplus of the regulatory capital and liquidity requirements imposed by regulators, for a period of at least 12 months from the date this Interim Report is approved. For this reason, they have adopted the going concern basis for the preparation of the financial statements.
Changes to International Reporting Standards
Interpretations and standards which became effective during the year
The following amendment and interpretation became effective during the period. Its adoption has not had any significant impact on the Group.
Amendments to IAS 21
Lack of Exchangeability
The amendments to IAS 21 clarify how to determine an exchange rate when a currency cannot be exchanged into another due to restrictions. Entities must estimate a spot rate that reflects an orderly transaction under prevailing conditions and disclose related judgements and impacts.
1 January 2025
Interpretations and standards in issue but not yet effective
The following new standards and amendments are in issue but not yet effective. The Group has not early adopted any standard, interpretation or amendment that has been issued but is not yet effective and does not expect these to have a material impact on the financial statements of the Group based on the assessment performed.
While the introduction of IFRS 18 will give rise to presentational changes, there are no changes to the underlying numbers and accounting principles. The Group has performed an initial assessment and will continue to monitor developments ahead of implementation.
IFRS 18
Presentation and Disclosures in Financial Statements
IFRS 18 replaces most of IAS 1 and introduces a new income statement structure with mandatory subtotals and categories (Operating, Investing, Financing). It also requires disclosure and reconciliation of management-defined performance measures and enhances aggregation/disaggregation principles for clearer presentation.
1 January 2027
IFRS 19
Subsidiaries without Public Accountability: Disclosures
IFRS 19 introduces an optional reduced-disclosure framework for subsidiaries without public accountability that apply full IFRS recognition and measurement, aiming to cut reporting costs while maintaining useful information for users.
1 January 2027
IFRS 9 and IFRS 7
Amendments to the Classification and Measurement of Financial Instruments
The amendments refine IFRS 9 and IFRS 7 by clarifying how to classify financial assets with ESG-linked or contingent features, updating derecognition rules for electronic settlements, and introducing new disclosure requirements to improve consistency and transparency.
1 January 2026
2. Financial instruments
(i) Principal financial instruments
The principal financial instruments, from which financial instrument risk arises, are as follows:
· Trade and other receivables
· Accrued fees
· Investments - gilts
· Investments - listed shares and securities
· Trade and other payables
· Funds held for bonds pending approval
· Loans receivable
· Policyholder balances of investments and cash
· Liabilities for linked investment contracts
· Cash and cash equivalents - instant access and notice accounts
· Cash and cash equivalents - money market funds
(ii) Financial instruments measured at fair value and amortised cost
Financial assets and liabilities have been classified into categories that determine their basis of measurement. For items measured at fair value, their changes in fair value are recognised in the Interim Condensed Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income.
The following tables show the carrying values of assets and liabilities for each of these categories for the Group:

(iii) Financial instruments not measured at fair value
Financial instruments not measured at fair value include cash and cash equivalents (excluding money market funds), cash held for policyholders, accrued income, investments held in gilts, loans, leases, trade and other receivables and trade and other payables. Due to their short-term nature and/or expected credit losses recognised, the carrying value of these financial instruments approximates their fair value.
(iv) Financial instruments measured at fair value - fair value hierarchy
The table below classifies financial instruments that are recognised on the Interim Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Position at fair value in a hierarchy that is based on significance of the inputs used in making the measurements.
The following table shows the three levels of the fair value hierarchy:
· Level 1: quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical instruments;
· Level 2: instruments which are not actively traded but provide regular observable prices; and
· Level 3: inputs that are based on Level 1 or Level 2 data, but for which the last known price is over a year old (unobservable inputs).
The following table shows the Group's financial instruments measured at fair value and split into the three levels:

Level 1 valuation methodology
Financial instruments included in Level 1 are measured at fair value using quoted mid prices that are available at the reporting date and are traded in active markets. These are mainly open-ended investment companies (OEICs), unit trusts, investment trusts and exchange traded funds.
The price is sourced from our third party provider, who sources this directly from the stock exchange or obtains the price directly from the fund manager.
Level 2 valuation methodology
Financial instruments included in Level 2 are measured at fair value using observable mid prices traded in markets that have been assessed as not active but which provide regular observable prices. These are mainly Structured products and OEICs.
The price is sourced from the structured product provider or from our 3rd party provider, who obtain the price directly from the fund manager.
Level 3 valuation methodology
Financial instruments included in Level 3 are measured at fair value using the last known price and for which the price is over a year old. These are mainly OEICs and Unit Trusts. These instruments have unobservable inputs as the current observable market information is no longer available. Where these instruments arise management will value them based on the last known observable market price or other relevant information, including consideration of the length of time elapsed since the last observable market price. These factors may result in the last known price being adjusted by management, where it is considered prudent to do so.
The prices are sourced as noted in level 1 and level 2 above.
For the purposes of identifying level 3 instruments, unobservable inputs means that current observable market information is no longer available. Where these instruments arise management will value them based on the last known observable market price or other relevant information. No other valuation techniques are applied.
Level 3 sensitivity to changes in unobservable measurements
For financial instruments assessed as Level 3, based on its review of the prices used, the Group believes that any change to the unobservable inputs used to measure fair value would not result in a significantly higher or lower fair value measurement at 31 March 2026, and therefore would not have a material impact on its reported results.
Review of prices
As part of its pricing process, the Group regularly reviews whether each instrument can be valued using a quoted price and if it trades on an active market, based on available market data and the specific circumstances of each market and instrument.
The Group regularly assesses instruments to ensure they are categorised correctly and Fair Value Hierarchy (FVH) levels adjusted accordingly. The Group monitors situations that may impact liquidity such as suspensions and liquidations while also actively collecting observable market prices from relevant exchanges and asset managers. Should an instrument price become observable following the resumption of trading the FVH level will be updated to reflect this.
Transfers between Levels
The Group's policy is to assess each financial instrument it holds at the period end, based on the last known price and market information, and assign it to a Level.
The Group recognises transfers between Levels of the fair value hierarchy at the end of the reporting period in which the changes have occurred. Changes occur due to the availability of (or lack thereof) quoted prices, whether a market is now active or not.
Transfers between Levels between 30 September 2025 and 31 March 2026 are presented in the table below at their valuation at 31 March 2026:

7. Tax on profit on ordinary activities
UK Corporation Tax for the six months ended 31 March 2026 has been calculated at 25% (31 March 2025: 25%), representing the average annual effective UK corporation tax rate expected for the full financial year. This has been applied to the estimated taxable profit for the six-month period. For the entities within the Group operating outside of the UK, tax is charged at the relevant rate in each jurisdiction.
IAS 12 - International Tax Reform - Pillar Two Model rules
As the Group's consolidated revenues are less than EUR 750 million, it is not in the scope of the Pillar Two model rules. Therefore, neither the mandatory recognition and disclosure exception in IAS 12.4A nor the disclosure requirements in IAS 12.88A-88D apply to the Group.
8. Deferred tax
Deferred tax is calculated in full on temporary differences under the liability method using a tax rate of 22% (September 2025: 20%) on policyholder assets and liabilities and 25% (September 2025: 25%) on non-policyholder items.
The increase in the deferred tax liability on policyholder assets is due to a change in accounting estimate, arising from the change in applicable future tax rate from 20% to 22% effective April 2027. This has resulted in a £4.0m increase in the policyholder deferred tax liability.

Amortisation of intangible assets is recognised within administrative expenses in the Interim Condensed Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income.
Goodwill and other intangible assets impairment assessment
In accordance with IFRS, goodwill is not amortised but is tested for impairment annually, or more frequently if there are indications that it may be impaired. The impairment assessment compares the carrying value of goodwill to the recoverable amount, which is the higher of value in use and the fair value less costs of disposal. The recoverable amount is determined based on value in use calculations using cash flow projections from financial budgets approved by senior management covering a five-year period.
The Group's goodwill relates to the acquisition of IAD Pty in July 2016 and T4A in January 2021.
Regarding the IAD Pty goodwill, there are no indications of impairment, and an impairment test is therefore not required at the half year, with the annual assessment having been performed at the last annual reporting date.
In financial year 2025, an impairment charge of £7.5 million was recognised in respect of the T4A acquisition, comprising a full impairment of the £5.3 million goodwill balance and a £2.2 million impairment of the related intangible assets. In accordance with IAS 36, the goodwill impairment is not reversible, and the impairment assessment performed at 31 March 2026 identified no material changes in circumstances that would give rise to a reversal of the impairment recognised in respect of the intangible assets.

ILUK policyholder reserve comprises claims received from HMRC that are yet to be returned to policyholders, charges taken from unit-linked funds and claims received from HMRC to meet current and future policyholder tax obligations.
The March 2026 ILUK policyholder reserves balance is significantly higher than the September 2025 balance, due to additional reserve charges on unrealised gains, which were high due to market gains in the period.

All amounts are current as customers are able to make same-day withdrawal of available funds and transfers to third-party providers are generally performed within a month.
These assets are held to cover the liabilities for unit linked investment contracts. All contracts with customers are deemed to be investment contracts and, accordingly, assets are 100% matched to corresponding liabilities.

The benefits offered under the unit-linked investment contracts are based on the risk appetite of policyholders and the return on their selected collective fund investments, whose underlying investments include equities, debt securities, property and derivatives. This investment mix is unique to individual policyholders. When the diversified portfolio of all policyholder investments is considered, there is a clear correlation with the FTSE 100 index and other major world indices, providing a meaningful comparison with the return on the investments.
The maturity value of these financial liabilities is determined by the fair value of the linked assets at maturity date. There will be no difference between the carrying amount and the maturity amount at maturity date.

Bank balances held in instant access accounts are current and available for use by the Group.
All of the bank balances held in notice accounts require 3 months or less notice before they are available for use by the Group. £79.8 million (September 2025: £69.9 million) of the total balance is corporate cash held in respect of provisions for policyholder tax that will become payable either to HMRC or returned to policyholders.
Investments in money market funds are classified as cash and cash equivalents. These investment funds are held for short-term liquidity purposes of less than three months, are highly liquid, have a strong credit rating and a very low risk of reduction in value.
All cash and cash equivalents are recognised at amortised cost, apart from money market funds, which are recognised mandatorily at FVTPL.

20. Related parties
There were no material changes to the related party transactions during the period.
21. Principal risks and uncertainties
Within the Risk and Risk Management section of the 2025 Annual Report and Financial Statements is a comprehensive view of what the board considered to be the principal risks and uncertainties that could undermine the successful achievement of the Group's strategic objectives, threaten its business model or future performance or that might present significant operational disruption.
The executive and board regularly review these principal risks and uncertainties, including emerging risks, and believe that their nature remains unchanged from those presented within the 2025 Annual Report and Financial Statements.
The ongoing conflict involving Iran has contributed to increased geopolitical and market volatility since the reporting date, and the Group recognises the impact that this exposure to market risk has on revenue. This is consistent with the market risk described in the 2025 Annual Report and Financial Statements, and the Group continues to monitor developments in the region and the potential implications for global financial markets.
22. Events after the reporting date
As noted on page 1, an interim dividend of 3.8 pence per share was declared on 19 May 2025. This dividend has not been accrued in the Interim Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Position.
There are no other events subsequent to the reporting period that require disclosure in, or amendment to the interim condensed consolidated financial statements.
23. Dividends
During the six month period to 31 March 2026 the Company paid a second interim dividend of £26.3 million (8.0 pence per share) to shareholders in respect of financial year 2025. This was in addition to the first interim dividend of £10.9 million (3.3 pence per share) in respect of financial year 2025, which was paid in July 2025. The total of £37.2 million (11.3 pence per share) compares with a full year interim dividend of £34.5 million (10.4 pence per share) in respect of the full financial year 2024.
