RNS Number : 6584S Sancus Lending Group Limited 12 February 2026
Sancus Lending Group Limited
("Sancus", the "Company" or the "Group")
Increased and Extended Credit Facility
Sancus Lending Group Limited (AIM: LEND) is pleased to announce that it has
entered into definitive legal agreements to increase the size, and extend the
maturity, of its existing credit facility with Pollen Street Capital ("Pollen
Street"), following a strong year of lending growth across its UK and Ireland
businesses.
Under the revised terms, the size of the facility has been increased from
£200 million to £300 million, with the tenor extended such that it will now
mature no earlier than 11(th) February 2031, providing at least five years of
committed funding from the date of the agreed terms.
The upsized and extended facility enhances Sancus' funding capacity and
flexibility, supporting the continued growth of its property-backed lending
platform across the United Kingdom, Ireland and the Channel Islands. The
transaction builds on a period of strong operational and financial performance
for the Group, including material growth in lending activity, expansion of the
loan book, a significant improvement in profitability and continued balance
sheet strengthening through the proactive reduction of leverage and
refinancing risk, as outlined in the Company's trading update released on 28
January 2026.
The facility extension further strengthens Sancus' long-standing partnership
with Pollen Street and reflects Pollen Street's continued confidence in the
Company's strategy, underwriting discipline and leadership, as well as the
resilience and momentum demonstrated across the Group's core businesses.
James Waghorn, Chief Investment Officer at Sancus Group, said: "We are
delighted to complete another extension of our successful partnership with
Pollen Street. The increased and extended facility is a strong endorsement of
our platform, performance and leadership team and provides enhanced
flexibility to support our continued growth across the UK and Irish markets."
