1.1 What the company does
Secured Fixed Income plc (“SFI”, “we”, or “the Company”) predominantly deploys capital into the UK SME
market, across six sectors through the Triple Point Private Credit platform, which is a 79-strong team of lending
professionals supported by a network of more than 850 introducers and brokers. Over the past 10 years,
we have built a diversified portfolio which comprises 186 borrowers as at year end, spanning established
businesses, specialist lenders, property developers and infrastructure projects. Capital is deployed both
through direct lending and through Partnership Interests in LendNet LLP, LendNet Property LLP (capital
contributions into a broad portfolio of UK private credit assets originated and managed by the Triple Point
Private Credit platform) and related structures, providing additional indirect participation in a wider loan book
of more than £650 million.
Section 1: Company overview
SME Debt Finance
We provide growth and acquisition finance to
established, cash flow-generative UK SMEs.
Borrowers are typically owner-managed or sponsor-
backed businesses with conservative leverage and
a credible exit route, seeking capital for expansion,
acquisition or shareholder reorganisation. Lending
is structured as amortising and non-amortising term
loans, revolving credit facilities and committed
acquisition facilities, with security taken over the
borrower’s business.
Specialty Finance
We extend wholesale credit lines to specialist
finance providers, who in turn typically lend to small
businesses and the property market. This model
allows us to deploy capital efficiently across a
broad base of end borrowers. Facilities are typically
asset-backed and structurally protected - including
revolving credit facilities, forward-flow structures,
mezzanine borrowing-base facilities and selective
sub-participations with advance rates and lending
limits set to prudent credit parameters. Borrowers
are selected based on established underwriting
capability, quality end-borrower pipelines and
collateral-backed structures.
Property Development Finance
We finance the development of residential and
commercial property, with all loans secured against
the underlying asset at prudent loan-to-value ratios
(typically 65%–70%) and loan-to-cost ratios typically
of up to 90%. The team focuses on experienced
developers, well-located residential schemes
and projects with strong underlying demand
fundamentals, with active portfolio oversight and
clearly defined exit strategies.
Fund Finance
We provide tailored lending solutions to investment
funds across subscription line lending, NAV financing
and GP financing, supporting liquidity management,
return enhancement and the efficient execution
of investment strategies. Maximum loan-to-value
parameters are calibrated by underlying asset class
with appetite strongest where the relationship can
support repeat origination through market cycles.
Energy and Infrastructure Finance
We finance lower mid-market energy and
infrastructure projects on a standalone basis, with
debt serviced directly from the cash flows generated
by each project, sales of projects or from refinances.
The team focuses on assets with long-term
contracted income or strong underlying asset value,
including renewables, battery storage, grid-related
assets and transitional infrastructure, with strong
contractual protection and specialist structuring.
Corporate Leasing and Lending
We provide leasing and loan finance facilities to
support the acquisition of tangible assets, intangible
assets or provide direct finance for working capital
purposes by UK corporates which are defined as
having one of the following: turnover greater than
£50m, balance sheet greater than £40m, or greater
than 250 employees. Leases and loans are typically
either written directly with the counterparty or, from
time to time, the company will purchase receivables
from third party lenders or will participate in
corporate syndicated loans in either the primary or
the secondary market.

1.2 Case studies
MT Finance
MT Finance is one of the UK’s most active property lenders, providing bridging, development and specialist
mortgage products to borrowers across the country. As demand for short-term property finance has grown,
so too has MT Finance’s need for a funding partner with the scale, flexibility and appetite to move alongside
them.
The relationship
Our relationship with MT Finance began in 2021, when we provided an initial £8 million facility to support a
management buy-out - an early signal of our willingness to back management teams at a pivotal moment.
As MT Finance’s business grew and lending volumes increased, it became clear that a more scalable funding
structure was needed. In 2023 we provided our first revolving credit facility of £25m (SFI hold of up to £2.5m,
with the remainder sub-participated to other Triple Point managed lending businesses) giving MT Finance the
capital flexibility to scale originations in line with borrower demand and pursue its strategic ambitions across
the UK property market.
These facilities have increased since then alongside the growth of the MT Finance business. SFI now holds up
to £3.75m of exposure and a partnership which has been in place for 5 years.
Section 1: Company overview
Secured Fixed Income - Annual Accounts

The outcome
What began as a single transaction has developed into a long-term funding partnership. Over five
years, we have grown our commitment and facilities to MT Finance, reflecting its strong track record
and our confidence in their lending model. The revolving structure means capital works harder on both
sides, enabling MT Finance to keep pace with a dynamic market without being constrained by fixed
funding limits.

1.2 Case studies
Wilson Partners
Wilson Partners is a professional services group with a clear and ambitious vision: to build a market-leading
firm through a disciplined programme of acquisitions. We first provided facilities in 2023 at which time Wilson
Partners had strong foundations, both in profitability and growth ambitions. The role of the funding was to
make sure the capital kept pace.
The relationship
The first £10 million acquisition facility was completed in February 2023 (SFI holding £1m with the remainder
sub-participated), providing Wilson Partners with committed capital to begin executing its buy-and-build
strategy.
Three acquisitions followed in quick succession. By September 2024, the growth trajectory justified increasing
the facility to £15 million (SFI holding £1.5m with the remainder sub-participated) to fund the next phase.
Three further acquisitions came after that, and by September 2025, the facility was expanded again to £35
million (SFI holding £3.5m with the remainder sub-participated), providing headroom for the acquisitions still
to come.
The outcome
Over three years and six acquisitions, the funding structure evolved at every stage, not because the original
deal was insufficient, but because the business earned each increase through performance. That progression,
from £10 million to £35 million across three facility expansions, reflects both the quality of Wilson Partners’
execution and the commitment to backing a management team for the long term rather than the next
transaction.

1.3 Key highlights from the year
Section 1: Company overview
Launched the listed bond programme on the London Stock Exchange’s Main Market and completed
the inaugural public bond offer, with a final book of £14.15 million.
1
Grew the loan book by 22% to £110.6 million at the year end, with average deployment of 92% and a
weighted average yield of 9.83% on the direct loanbook.
2
Fee income grew materially year-on-year to £7.2 million (FY2025: £5.9 million), driven by a step-up
in arrangement fees as origination volumes expanded and new facilities were written across the
platform.
3
Established Fund Finance as a new lending vertical within the Triple Point Private Credit platform,
complementing the Company’s existing exposure to SME Debt Finance, Specialty Finance, Property
Development, Corporate Leasing and Lending and Energy and Infrastructure.
4
Strengthened the Company’s governance and operating model in support of its listed issuer status,
including the appointment of KPMG as auditor and the engagement of Allia C&C for arrangement and
dealer for the listed bond issuance.

1.4 Outlook
The Company enters FY27 with a stronger strategic position, having continued to develop its lending model,
expanded the loan book and demonstrated genuine investor demand through the inaugural listed bond raise.
Structural bank retrenchment continues to support borrower demand across SFI’s core sectors, while the dual-
format funding model offers a route to broader distribution and improved long-term scalability. FY27 will be
judged less on headline growth than on execution quality; maintaining deployment, embedding the listed issuer
operating model, carefully managing the credit book and finishing the year with stable profitability and resilient
liquidity.

7 | Secured Fixed Income - Annual accounts for the year ended 31 March 2026
2.1 Strategy and objectives
SFI’s overarching strategic objective is to be a scalable and balanced fixed income issuer, raising fixed rate capital
from a diversified investor base and deploying it into a diversified portfolio of primarily UK private credit assets
through the Triple Point private credit platform. FY26 was a pivotal year in pursuing this objective. The Company
moved beyond proving its underlying lending model and entered the next phase of its development becoming
a dual-format issuer that combines an established unlisted bond programme with a newly launched listed bond
platform.
The Company’s strategy is delivered through four interlinked priorities. The Board’s progress against each during
FY26 is set out below.
Section 2: Strategic Report
Preserve high deployment and grow the
loan book responsibly
The Company aims to deploy investor capital
efficiently into the underlying loan portfolio so
that bond proceeds generate productive returns.
During FY26, average deployment was 92%, with
the loan book growing 22% to £110.6 million at
the year end. Average interest yield was 9.83%
on the direct loanbook as new originations were
written at more attractive pricing than legacy
repayments. Diversification across direct lending
(52%) and partnership interests in LendNet LLP,
LendNet Property LLP and related structures (48%)
was preserved, providing exposure to a wider loan
book of more than £650 million through indirect
participation.
Improve portfolio quality
A central objective during FY26, and at all times,
is to strengthen the portfolio quality. This is done
through two primary routes: i. Strong underwriting
analysis and governance of new business; & ii.
Careful management and clear exit strategies of any
distressed borrowers in the portfolio.
We did experience an increase in distressed cases
during FY26 in the Property sector as inflation and
higher interest rates put pressure on the sector. We
experienced one material impairment through a
Partnership Interest which came from an Electric
Vehicle leasing business which suffered from
industry and regulatory headwinds. Provisions were
presented to, and agreed with, the Board of SFI to
cover the expected shortfall of the loan exposures
compared to the expected recovery of the security.
These provisions are held within the membership
interest entities, and flow through to SFI via profit
share, rather than as a direct P&L charge in SFI.
Despite these provisions, profit after tax for the year
increased from £0.6 million to £1.6 million.
Institutionalise the listed issuance platform
FY26 marked the transition of the listed funding
programme from concept to execution. The
Company completed its inaugural public bond
offer under the listed bond platform admitted to
the London Stock Exchange’s Main Market, with a
final book raise of £14.15 million and £20 million of
bonds issued (of which £5.85 million is retained for
secondary market distribution as demand develops).
The Company also progressed the governance,
operational and reporting infrastructure required
to operate as a listed debt issuer, including
the appointment of KPMG as auditor and the
engagement of Allia C&C as arrangement for listed
issuance. It was a successful first issuance and lessons
were learned which will inform future capital raising
in the year ahead.
Section 172(1) statement
The Company identifies its primary stakeholders as its bond holders, borrowers and shareholders. During the
year the Company has directly engaged with all primary stakeholders and has continued to build strong
relationships. The Company looks to play an active part in the community and seeks always to minimise the
environmental impact of its activities. In particular, the Company has maintained its unbroken record of
repaying all bondholders in full and on time, and has delivered £1.125m in dividends to its shareholder (2025:
£1.0m).
8 | Secured Fixed Income - Annual accounts for the year ended 31 March 2026
Maintain prudent balance sheet and liquidity discipline
The Company’s investor proposition rests on confidence that bond servicing can be met from a resilient and
well-managed asset base. During FY26 the Company maintained strong asset coverage with retained earnings
comfortably above 2.5% of bonds in issue and held a liquidity buffer consistent with the Board’s risk appetite.
Provisioning was strengthened where appropriate, and the Credit Risk Management Framework continued to
govern watchlist, Non-Performing Loans and recovery activity through the Portfolio Monitoring Group, Private
Credit Committee and Risk and Compliance Committee.
Looking forward, these four priorities continue to anchor the Company’s strategy. The principal test for the
year ahead is not rapid expansion for its own sake, but whether SFI can demonstrate repeatability across
funding, deployment, monitoring, gover
nance and investor outcomes.
2.2 Business model
SFI is a corporate bond issuer that raises fixed rate capital from investors and deploys it into a diversified
portfolio of primarily UK private credit assets. The Company’s bond liabilities are serviced from the cashflows,
fees, recoveries and asset values generated by the underlying loan portfolio, supported by the origination,
underwriting, servicing, finance and governance infrastructure of the wider Triple Point private credit platform.
Section 2: Strategic Report
Funding model
The Company has historically funded its lending
activities through an unlisted secured bond
programme, distributed primarily to sophisticated
and high-net-worth investors via the Triple Point
Income Service. To date, more than £300 million
of unlisted bonds have been issued to over 800
bondholders, approximately £240 million of capital
has been repaid and the historical rollover rate on
maturing series has been c.63%. During FY26 the
funding model evolved into a dual-format structure
with the launch of the listed bond programme
detailed above. The listed programme is intended to
broaden market access and support a more scalable
funding architecture alongside the established
unlisted channel.
Lending model
SFI predominantly deploys capital across six core
lending strategies: SME Debt Finance, Specialty
Finance, Property Development Finance, Energy
and Infrastructure Finance, Corporate Leasing
and Lending and Fund Finance. Origination is
delivered by the wider Triple Point Private Credit
team comprising 79 professionals and a network of
more than 850 introducers and brokers operating
a relationship-led underwriting model governed by
central credit committee processes. At the FY26 year
end, SFI’s exposure was balanced between direct
lending (52%) and partnership interests held through
LendNet LLP, LendNet Property LLP and related
structures (48%), with the partnership interests
providing indirect participation in a wider loan book
of more than £650 million. The loan book grew 22%
year-on-year to £110.6m at FY26 year end, with an
average deployment of 92%.
Deal structure and returns
The Company’s lending is typically structured
as senior, security-backed term loans, revolving
credit facilities and committed acquisition facilities,
supplemented by warehouse and forward-flow
structures in Specialty Finance and project-style
structures in Energy and Infrastructure. Underwriting
emphasises resilient sectors, strong cashflow
generation, conservative leverage and clearly
defined exits, with collateral typically taking the form
of first charges over assets, share security, sponsor
support and personal guarantees as appropriate.
Returns are generated principally through net
interest margin on the deployed performing book,
supplemented by arrangement, monitoring, non-
utilisation and exit fees. Average interest yield on
the direct loan book rose to 9.83% in FY26 as new
originations were written at more attractive pricing
than legacy repayments.
Key counterparties
SFI operates an outsourced and integrated operating
model in which most functions are delivered by Triple

2.3 Key performance indicators
The Company monitors a focused set of KPIs that reflect the underlying drivers of value in its lending and bond
issuance model. These metrics are reviewed monthly by management and reported regularly to the Board.
Section 2: Strategic Report
1. Credit and Concentration risk
Risk: There is a risk that borrowers fail to meet
their contractual obligations to pay interest or repay
capital, resulting in arrears, impairment charges
or capital loss to the Company. There is a further
risk that the loan book becomes over-exposed
to a single borrower, counterparty or sector, such
that an adverse credit event in that area has a
disproportionate impact on the Company’s financial
position.
Impact: Credit losses reduce the Company’s
reported earnings. Where losses are sustained,
concentrated or severe, they could impair the
Company’s ability to meet its obligations to
bondholders and may affect investor confidence
in the quality of the underlying loan book. Where
exposure is concentrated, a default or deterioration
affecting a single borrower or sector could
compound this effect materially.
Mitigants: The Company applies conservative
underwriting standards, with emphasis on the
quality of security, borrower cashflow generation
2.4 Principal risks and uncertainties
The Board considers the management of risk to be fundamental to the protection of bondholders and the
long-term sustainability of the Company. The Company manages risk in accordance with the wider Triple
Point Risk Management Framework and these risks reflect SFI’s dual position as both a lender and a bond
issuer. The framework encompasses the full credit lifecycle; including origination, underwriting, monitoring,
watchlist management, NPL identification, restructuring, recoveries and provisioning, and broader operational
and regulatory aspects such as governance and liquidity management. Risks are managed through the Bond
Product Advisory Group, the Credit Committee, the Portfolio Monitoring Group, with oversight undertaken
by Triple Point’s Risk and Compliance Committee, as part of the three-lines-of-defence model adopted by the
group.
The principal risks and uncertainties facing the Company, together with the mitigating actions in place, are set
out below.

Section 2: Strategic Report
and leverage discipline. The credit framework
includes borrower and sector concentration limits,
and lending is diversified across SME Debt Finance,
Specialty Finance, Property Development Finance,
Energy and Infrastructure Finance and Fund Finance.
All new credit is subject to approval by the central
credit committee, and a separated origination
and monitoring team structure supports objective
oversight of the portfolio. The Company maintains a
general provision calculated by reference to a long-
run annualised historic loss rate. All watchlist and
NPL positions are reviewed monthly at the Portfolio
Monitoring Group, and portfolio concentration is
monitored regularly at the Bond Product Advisory
Group with escalation to the Board where limits are
approached or breached.
2. Liquidity risk
Risk: There is a risk that the Company cannot
meet its maturing bond obligations or operating
commitments as they fall due as a result of
insufficient liquidity.
Impact: A shortfall in fundraising, delayed asset
repayments or higher-than-expected early exit
requests could reduce the Company’s liquidity
headroom and constrain its ability to make new
loans or service existing bondholders. The transition
to listed issuance, while broadening the Company’s
funding options, also, increases the importance of
proactive liquidity management and the treasury
function.
Mitigants: The Company applies conservative
liquidity forecasting, comparing projected inflows
from asset repayments, fees and fundraising against
bond maturities, operating costs and downside
scenarios. Monitoring of asset and liability positions
is maintained as a core discipline. The Company
targets retained earnings of at least 2.5% of bonds in
issue and a liquidity buffer of £2m–£5m after maturity
management. The Board reviews stressed liquidity
scenarios on a regular basis.
3. Deployment risk
Risk: There is a risk that the Company is unable to
deploy capital raised from bondholders into suitable
lending opportunities at a sufficient pace, or that
origination activity is insufficient to replace loan
repayments as they occur.
Impact: Where capital cannot be deployed
promptly, the Company may hold cash or near-cash
assets that generate a lower return than the interest
committed to bondholders, compressing margins
and potentially affecting interest coverage. Sustained
under-deployment could constrain the growth of
the loan book and weaken the Company’s ability to
support future fundraising activity.
Mitigants: The Company maintains an active
pipeline of lending opportunities across its
established strategies through the Triple Point Credit
platform. New lending opportunities are reviewed
regularly by the Private Credit Committee. The
Company’s diversified sector approach is designed to
ensure access to origination across varying economic
conditions, and pipeline health is monitored at Board
level on a regular basis.
4. Macroeconomic and market risk
Risk: There is a risk that adverse changes in UK
economic conditions, interest rates, inflation,
property values or credit market sentiment reduce
borrower demand, weaken the credit quality of the
existing loan book, or reduce investor appetite for
fixed income products.
Impact: A deteriorating macroeconomic backdrop
may increase arrears and impairment, particularly in
sectors with sensitivity to cost inflation, refinancing
pressures or weaker end-demand, such as Property
Development Finance. A sustained fall in market
interest rates could reduce the relative attractiveness
of fixed rate bond products to investors and
constrain future fundraising.
Mitigants: The Company’s planning framework
assumes positive but modest UK economic growth.
Lending is diversified across Triple Point’s Credit
platform. Borrower selection applies robust cashflow
and leverage requirements, and pricing discipline
is maintained in competitive market segments. The
Triple Point platform’s sector specialisation supports
credit quality through the cycle.
5. Conduct and disclosure risk
Risk: There is a risk that the Company fails to meet
its continuing obligations as a listed bond issuer,
including market abuse rules, disclosure standards
and timely investor communications. There is
11 | Secured Fixed Income - Annual accounts for the year ended 31 March 2026
Section 2: Strategic Report
a further risk that the Company’s governance
framework is insufficient to provide effective
oversight of management decisions and financial
reporting.
Impact: A failure to meet listed issuer obligations
could result in regulatory action by the Financial
Conduct Authority or the London Stock Exchange,
reputational damage and a loss of investor
confidence. Governance failures could undermine
the integrity of financial reporting and the adequacy
of internal controls.
Mitigants: The Company is supported by Triple
Point Investment Management’s central Risk and
Compliance function, which provides regulatory
oversight and compliance monitoring. The Board
comprises executive and non-executive directors,
and an Audit Committee with majority independent
composition provides independent challenge.
Formal continuing obligations processes are in place,
including insider list management and a tested
escalation route for inside information. External
legal counsel advise on listed issuer obligations as
required.
6. Operational risk
Risk: There is a risk of loss arising from inadequate
or failed internal processes, systems, people or
external service providers. The Company’s operating
model relies on outsourced and intra-group
functions, and the launch of the listed programme
has increased the materiality of settlement
mechanics, third-party coordination and continuing
obligations processes.
Impact: Operational disruption could affect bond
issuance and settlement, investor reporting, portfolio
monitoring or regulatory submissions. Failure by a
key service provider to perform its obligations could
delay or impair the Company’s ability to meet its
commitments to bondholders or regulators.
Mitigants: The Company operates through an
integrated outsourced model drawing on the
established infrastructure of Triple Point Investment
Management LLP, an experienced adviser and
delivery partner network. Formal oversight of
third-party and intra-group service dependencies
is maintained, and monitored. Business continuity
and incident escalation procedures are in place and
subject to periodic review.
7. Conflicts of interest risk
Risk: There is a risk that conflicts of interest arise
between the Company and the wider Triple Point
Group, or between the interests of the Company’s
bondholders and those of other parties with whom
Triple Point transacts. Triple Point Group entities
may own, develop or take stakes in businesses that
are also borrowers of, or that transact with, the
Company.
Impact: Where conflicts of interest are not identified
and managed effectively, decisions taken by the
Company or its advisers may not be made wholly in
the interests of bondholders. This could affect the
integrity of the lending process, the terms on which
transactions are entered into, or the management of
distressed credits.
Mitigants: The Company’s conflicts of interest
policy, maintained in accordance with the wider
Triple Point Group framework, sets out procedures
for the identification, disclosure and management
of conflicts. Related party transactions are subject to
Board review and, where applicable, independent
approval. The Company’s governance structure,
including its non-executive directors and Audit
Committee, provides independent oversight of
situations where conflicts may arise.

flag checks; those lacking strong gover
nance or
compliance standar
ds are declined.
• Stakeholder
accountability
- obligations run
to borrowers (fair outcomes), investors (prudent
risk management) and communities (sustainable
economic value).
Climate Risk
SFI’s primary climate exposures are transition risk
within energy and property portfolios, borrower
carbon intensity and physical risks associated with
construction and infrastructure.
Governance - Climate considerations are embedded
in credit committee approvals and reviewed at board
level.
Strategy - Portfolios are assessed against climate
scenarios including a sub-2°C transition pathway to
evaluate resilience under different policy and physical
risk environments.
Risk categories
• T
ransition - r
egulatory change, carbon pricing,
market shifts, r
eputational pressure.
• Physical - acute events (flooding, storms) and
chr
onic risks (rising temperatures, sea levels).
Material exposures are flagged at origination and
subject to enhanced due diligence where required.

Section 3: Financial review
3.1 Income and expenditure
Revenue for the year was £13.7m (FY2025: £12.1m),
an increase of 14% reflecting the larger average
loan book and significant increase in arrangement
fees. Operating profit grew to £8.4m (FY2025:
£6.0m), an increase of 41%, supported by disciplined
cost control: administrative expenses fell to £4.8m
(FY2025: £5.8m) despite the larger loan book.
SFI generated a profit before tax of £2.0m for
the year ended 31 March 2026 (FY2025: £1.0m),
representing an increase of 99% year-on-year and
reflecting continued growth in the Company’s loan
portfolio and an improved margin between interest
earned and the cost of borrowing.
Statutory profit after tax for the year was £1.6m
(FY2025: £0.6m). The improvement reflects the
Company’s increased deployment, with the gross
loan book expanding to £110.6m from £90.9m at the
prior year end.
Finance costs totalled £6.4 million (FY2025: £5.2m),
an increase on prior year, consistent with the growth
in bonds outstanding and the Company’s ongoing
programme of new bond issuance throughout the
year.
The Interest Coverage Ratio (see page 48 for more
information in Additional Performance Measures
section), calculated as EBIT before Group Deductions
divided by finance costs, strengthened to 2.0x
(FY2025: 1.8x), demonstrating the Company’s
increased capacity to service its debt obligations
from underlying earnings.
3.2 Balance sheet
Total lending assets grew materially during the year.
The gross loan book reached £110.6 million at 31
March 2026 (FY2025: £90.9 million), an increase
of £19.7 million or 22%, reflecting continued
deployment across the Company’s partnership
lending and direct lending activities.
The direct loan book (gross) was £57.2m (FY2025:
£50.3m) and the partnership investment stood at
£53.4m (FY2025: £40.6m).
Bonds outstanding at the year end were £104.7m
(FY2025: £84.2m), reflecting net new issuance during
the year to fund loan growth. The Asset Coverage
Ratio - calculated as net loan book plus cash divided
by bonds outstanding - was maintained at 1.1x
(FY2025: 1.1x), consistent with prior years and within
the Company’s required parameters.
Cash at the year end was £4.1m (FY2025: £1.8m),
providing adequate operational liquidity.
3.3 Cash flow
Operating activities consumed £5.5m (FY2025: inflow
of £9.1m), driven mainly by loan advances of £35.9m
compared to repayments of £30.1m - reflecting
expanded direct lending activity year-on-year.
Cash generated from operations fell to £5.8m
(FY2025: £8.9m), principally reflecting an increase in
trade and other receivables.
Investing activities consumed £11.5m (FY2025:
£19.5m). Partnership additions of £38.5m were
partially offset by withdrawals of £27.0m, while
financing activities generated net inflows of £19.3m
(FY2025: £10.5m), comprising £54.5m of gross
bond proceeds and £34.1m of bond redemptions.
Dividends of £1.1m were paid to shareholders
(FY2025: £1.0m).
Cash and cash equivalents increased by £2.3m to
£4.1m at year end (31 March 2025: £1.8m). The Asset
Coverage Ratio was maintained at 1.1x throughout.

Auditor
KPMG Audit Limited has been appointed as the
independent auditor of the Company in the current
year. The auditor has indicated its willingness
to continue in office and will be proposed for
reappointment in accordance with section 485 of the
Companies Act 2006.
Statement of directors’ responsibilities
The directors are responsible for preparing the
annual report and the financial statements in
accordance with applicable law and regulations.
Company law requires the directors to prepare
financial statements for each financial year. Under
that law the directors have elected to prepare
the financial statements in accordance with UK
accounting standards and applicable law (UK
Generally Accepted Accounting Practice), including
FRS 102 The Financial Reporting Standard
15 | Secured Fixed Income - Annual accounts for the year ended 31 March 2026
Section 4: Governance and Directors’ report
applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland.
Under Company law the directors must not approve
the financial statements unless they are satisfied that
they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs
of the Company and of the profit or loss of the
Company for that period. In preparing these financial
statements, the directors are required to:
• select suitable accounting policies and then apply
them consistently;
• make judgements and accounting estimates that
ar
e reasonable and prudent;
• state whether applicable UK accounting
Standards have been followed, subject to any
material departures disclosed and explained in
the financial statements;
•
assess the Company’
s ability to continue as a
going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters
r
elated to going concern; and
•
use the going concer
n basis of accounting unless
they either intend to liquidate the Company or to
cease operations, or have no r
ealistic alter
native
but to do so.
The dir
ectors are responsible for keeping adequate
accounting records that are sufficient to show and
explain the Company’s transactions and disclose with
reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position
of the Company and enable them to ensure that the
financial statements comply with the Companies
Act 2006. They are responsible for such internal
control as they determine is necessary to enable the
preparation of financial statements that are free from
material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error,
and have general responsibility for taking such steps
as are reasonably open to them to safeguard the
assets of the Company and to prevent and detect
fraud and other irregularities.
The directors are responsible for the maintenance
and integrity of the corporate and financial
information included on the Company’s website.
Legislation in the UK governing the preparation and
dissemination of financial statements may differ from
legislation in other jurisdictions.
Statement of disclosure to auditor
So far as each person who was a director at the date
of approving this report is aware, there is no relevant
audit information of which the Company’s auditor is
unaware. Additionally, the directors individually have
taken all the necessary steps that they ought to have
taken as directors in order to make themselves aware
of all relevant audit information and to establish that
the Company’s auditor is aware of that information.
Corporate Governance Statement
In accordance with DTR 7.2.1 R, the Company
is required to include a corporate governance
statement as part of its Directors’ Report. As an
issuer of listed debt securities with no listed equity,
the Company is not within the scope of
the UK Corporate Governance Code, which applies
(on a “comply or explain” basis) to companies with
listed equity securities within the relevant UK Listing
Rule categories. Accordingly, the Company is not
required to report against the Code, although it may
elect to adopt a governance code voluntarily.
The Board of Directors comprises five members:
two Non-Executive Directors (Peter Alderson
and Natalina West) and three Executive Directors
(Michael Bayer, Toby Furnivall and Sean Brophy).
The Board meets regularly to consider matters of
strategy, financial performance, risk management,
and regulatory compliance. The Board is collectively
responsible for the long-term success of the
Company and for ensuring that adequate systems of
internal control and risk management are in place.
As described on page 16, the Board constituted an
Audit Committee in January 2026 to strengthen the
Company’s governance framework as it continues
to scale its listed bond programme. The Committee
comprises three Directors; Michael Bayer (Chair),
Peter Alderson and Natalina West, bringing together
complementary accounting, specialist lending and
institutional governance expertise.
The Company does not maintain separate
remuneration, or nomination committees. Given
the size and nature of the Company’s operations,
the Board considers that these functions are most
effectively discharged by the Board as a whole.
Credit and investment decisions are overseen by
a dedicated Triple Point Investment Committee
appointed by the Board. The Board is supported in
its governance and administrative functions by Triple
Point Investment Management LLP, which acts as
Company Secretary.
The Company’s internal control framework includes
regular financial reporting, monthly management
16 | Secured Fixed Income - Annual accounts for the year ended 31 March 2026
Section 4: Governance and Directors’ report
accounts, credit monitoring procedures, and
compliance oversight. The Directors are satisfied that
these arrangements provide an appropriate level of
governance for the Company’s current operations
and regulatory obligations.
Responsibility statement
Each of the directors, whose names and functions
are set out above, confirms that, to the best of their
knowledge:
•
the financial statements, prepared in accor
dance
with FRS 102, give a true and fair view of the
assets, liabilities, financial position and pr
ofit of
the Company; and
•
the Strategic Report includes a fair r
eview of the
development and performance of the business
and the position of the Company, together with a
description of the principal risks and uncertainties
that it faces.
Audit Committee
The Board constituted an Audit Committee
in January 2026 to strengthen the Company’s
governance framework as it continues to scale its
listed bond programme. The Committee comprises
three Directors — Michael Bayer (Chair), Peter
Alderson and Natalina West — bringing together
complementary accounting, specialist lending and
institutional governance expertise.
The Committee’s principal responsibilities are to:
monitor the integrity of the Company’s financial
statements and any formal announcements relating
to its financial performance, including reviewing
significant accounting judgements and estimates;
review the effectiveness of the Company’s internal
financial controls and risk management systems;
oversee the relationship with the external auditor,
including assessing independence and objectivity,
agreeing the scope and fees of the audit and
reviewing audit findings; review the Company’s
accounting policies and any proposed changes; and
oversee the Company’s whistleblowing and fraud-
prevention arrangements.
The Committee provides independent challenge to
management and adds value by reinforcing financial
reporting discipline, sharpening risk oversight and
supporting the confidence of bondholders and other
stakeholders in the Company’s controls environment.
Its members bring particularly relevant experience:
the Chair is a Chartered Accountant with over 30
years in finance and investment; Peter Alderson
contributes deep operational insight from leading a
specialist SME lending business; and Natalina West,
a Fellow of Chartered Accountants Australia and
New Zealand, brings board-level expertise in finance,
credit oversight, risk and investor relations.

Section 5: Independent auditor’s report
To the member of Secured Fixed Income plc
Our opinion is unmodified
We have audited the financial statements of Secured
Fixed Income plc (the “Company”), which comprise
the statement of financial position as at 31 March
2026, the statements of comprehensive income,
changes in equity and cash flows for the year then
ended, and notes, comprising significant accounting
policies and other explanatory information.
In our opinion, the accompanying financial
statements:
• give a true and fair view of the state of the
Company’
s affairs as at 31 Mar
ch 2026 and of the
Company’
s profit for the year then ended;
•
are properly prepared in accor
dance with United
Kingdom accounting standar
ds, including FRS
102 The Financial Reporting Standard applicable
in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland;
and
•
have been prepared in accor
dance with the
r
equirements of the Companies Act 2006.
Basis for opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with
International Standards on Auditing (UK) (“ISAs
(UK)”) and applicable law. Our responsibilities are
described below. We believe that the audit evidence
we have obtained is a sufficient and appropriate
basis for our opinion. Our audit opinion is consistent
with our report to the audit committee.
We were first appointed as auditor by the
directors on 01 October 2025. The period of total
uninterrupted engagement is for the full financial
year ended 31 March 2026. We have fulfilled
our ethical responsibilities under, and we remain
independent of the Company in accordance with, UK
ethical requirements including the FRC
Ethical Standard as applied to public interest entities.
No non-audit services prohibited by that standard
were provided.
Key audit matters: our assessment of the
risks of material misstatement
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our
professional judgment, were of most significance
in the audit of the financial statements and include
the most significant assessed risks of material
misstatement (whether or not due to fraud) identified
by us, including those which had the greatest effect
on: the overall audit strategy; the allocation of
resources in the audit; and directing the efforts of the
engagement team. We summarise below the
key audit matters, in arriving at our audit opinion
above, together with our key audit procedures to
address those matters and, as required for public
interest entities, our results from those procedures.
These matters were addressed, and our results are
based on procedures undertaken, in the context
of, and solely for the purpose of, our audit of the
financial statements as a whole, and in forming our
opinion thereon, and consequently are
incidental to that opinion, and we do not provide a
separate opinion on these matters.

The risk Our response
Recoverability of loan
receivables
Directly held loan book:
£53,457,462
(2025: £46,343,152)
Indirect exposure
through Membership
interests:
£53,367,142
(2025: £40,595,278)
Refer to note 1.7 and
2 accounting policies
and notes 12, 13 & 21
disclosures.
Basis:
The assessment of the recoverability
of loan receivables requires significant
management judgement in identifying
indicators of impairment, evaluating
borrower creditworthiness, estimating
expected future cash flows and
assessing the value, enforceability and
realisability of any underlying security.
Given the size of the loan portfolio and
the inherent uncertainty associated with
the recoverability of lending exposures,
particularly where repayment is
dependent on future borrower
performance, refinancing activity or
the realisation of secured assets, we
considered this area to be a significant
audit risk and a key audit matter.
This assessment is also made on an
indirect basis when management assess
recoverability of underlying loans held
indirectly through Membership interests.
Risk:
There is a risk that loan receivables are
overstated if the impairment indicators
are not identified on a timely basis or
impairment losses are not appropriately
recognised. Assessing recoverability
requires significant management
judgement, including assumptions over
borrower performance, future cash
flows and collateral values. Given the
subjective nature of these assessments,
there is a risk of management bias,
resulting in a material misstatement
through error or fraud in the
recoverability of loan receivables and
the adequacy of impairment provisions.
Our audit procedures included:
Internal Controls:
We evaluated the design and imple-
mentation of management’s processes
and key control over loan impairment
assessments and provisioning.
We performed the tests below rath-
er than seeking to rely on any of the
Company’s controls because the nature
of the balance is such that we would
expect to obtain audit evidence pri-
marily through the detailed procedures
described.
Challenging management’s assump-
tions and inputs:
With the support of our KPMG special-
ists, we:
• held discussions with management
to understand the loan impairment
and provisioning methodologies and
frameworks, and their application to
the loan portfolio; and
•
assessed and challenged the rea-
sonableness of management’
s loan
impair
ment and provisioning meth-
odologies and frameworks.
For a risk based selection of borrowers
we:
•
assessed and challenged the reason-
ableness of management’
s watchlist
categorisations having r
egar
d to its
cr
edit monitoring framework;
•
assessed the reliability of manage-
ment’s supporting infor
mation,
including the collateral value, and
evaluated whether the key assump-
tions used in estimating the r
ecov-
erability of the loan positions wer
e
appr
opriate and sufficiently substan-
tiated; and
19 | Secured Fixed Income - Annual accounts for the year ended 31 March 2026
Section 5: Independent auditor’s report
The risk Our response
•
we reviewed publicly available infor
mation to
identify any indicators of impairment or evidence
that may af
fect the recoverability of the r
elated loan
exposures.
W
e reconciled movements in the loan loss provision
accounts from the prior year balance to the current
year balance.
We tested the mathematical accuracy of the impair-
ment provision calculations.
We performed retrospective reviews by comparing
actual recoveries achieved during the year against
provisions recognised in the prior year.
In addition, we assessed whether the net asset value of
the underlying partnerships, held through membership
interests, reasonably approximates their fair value by
understanding basis of preparation of the underlying
financial statements and recalculating the Company’s
proportionate share.
Assessing disclosures:
We considered the adequacy of the Company’s disclo-
sures of loan receivables and provisioning, and related
risk disclosures, in line with FRS 102.
Our results:
From the evidence obtained, we considered the level
of loan provisioning to be acceptable.
20 | Secured Fixed Income - Annual accounts for the year ended 31 March 2026
Section 5: Independent auditor’s report
Our application of materiality and an
overview of the scope of our audit
Materiality for the financial statements as a whole
was set at £1,030,000, determined with reference
to a benchmark of total assets of £113,224,543, of
which it represents approximately 1.0%.
In line with our audit methodology, our procedures
on individual account balances and disclosures
were performed to a lower threshold, performance
materiality, so as to reduce to an acceptable level
the risk that individually immaterial misstatements
in individual account balances add up to a material
amount across the financial statements as a whole.
Performance materiality for the Company was set at
65% of materiality for the financial statements as a
whole, which equates to £669,000. We applied this
percentage in our determination of performance
materiality because we did not identify any factors
indicating an elevated level of risk.
We reported to the Audit Committee any
corrected or uncorrected identified misstatements
exceeding £51,000, in addition to other identified
misstatements that warranted reporting on
qualitative grounds.
Our audit of the Company was undertaken to the
materiality level specified above, which has informed
our identification of significant risks of material
misstatement and the associated audit procedures
performed in those areas as detailed above.
Going concern
The directors have prepared the financial statements
on the going concern basis as they do not intend to
liquidate the Company or to cease its operations,
and as they have concluded that the Company’s
financial position means that this is realistic. They
have also concluded that there are no material
uncertainties that could have cast significant doubt
over its ability to continue as a going concern for at
least a year from the date of approval of the financial
statements (the “going concern period”).
In our evaluation of the directors’ conclusions, we
considered the inherent risks to the Company’s
business model and analysed how those risks might
affect the Company’s financial resources or ability to
continue operations over the going concern period.
The risks that we considered most likely to affect the
Company’s financial resources or ability to continue
operations over this period were:
• Availability of capital to meet operating costs and
other financial commitments;
• The ability to successfully repay debt which is due
to mature; and
• The recoverability of financial assets subject to
credit risk;
We considered whether these risks could plausibly
affect the liquidity in the going concern period by
comparing severe, but plausible downside scenarios
that could arise from these risks individually and
collectively against the level of available financial
resources indicated by the Company’s financial
forecasts.
We considered whether the going concern disclosure
in note 1.1 to the financial statements gives a full and
accurate description of the directors’ assessment of
going concern.
Our conclusions based on this work:
• we consider that the directors’ use of the going
concern basis of accounting in the preparation of
the financial statements is appropriate;
• we have not identified, and concur with the
directors’ assessment that there is not, a material
uncertainty related to events or conditions that,
individually or collectively, may cast significant
doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a
going concern for the going concern period; and
• we found the going concern disclosure in
the notes to the financial statements to be
acceptable.
However, as we cannot predict all future events or
conditions and as subsequent events may result in
outcomes that are inconsistent with judgements
that were reasonable at the time they were made,
the above conclusions are not a guarantee that the
Company will continue in operation.
21 | Secured Fixed Income - Annual accounts for the year ended 31 March 2026
Section 5: Independent auditor’s report
Fraud and breaches of laws and regulations
– ability to detect
Identifying and r
esponding to risks of
material misstatement due to fraud
To identify risks of material misstatement due to
fraud (“fraud risks”) we assessed events or conditions
that could indicate an incentive or pressure to
commit fraud or provide an opportunity to commit
fraud. Our risk assessment procedures included:
•
enquiring of management as to the Company’
s
policies and pr
ocedures to pr
event and detect
fraud as well as enquiring whether management
have knowledge of any actual, suspected or
alleged fraud;
•
reading minutes of meetings of those char
ged
with gover
nance; and
•
using analytical procedur
es to identify any unusual
or unexpected r
elationships.
As required by auditing standards, and taking into
account possible incentives or pressures to misstate
performance and our overall knowledge of the
control environment, we perform procedures to
address the risk of management override of controls,
in particular the risk that management may be in a
position to make inappropriate accounting entries,
and the risk of bias in accounting estimates such as
recoverability of loan receivables. On this audit we
do not believe there is a fraud risk related to revenue
recognition because the Company’s revenue streams
are simple in nature with respect to accounting policy
choice, and are easily verifiable to external data
sources or agreements with little or no requirement
for estimation from management. We did not identify
any additional fraud risks.
We performed procedures including:
•
identifying jour
nal entries and other adjustments
to test based on risk criteria and comparing any
identified entries to supporting documentation;
•
incorporating an element of unpr
edictability in
our audit pr
ocedures; and
• assessing significant accounting estimates for
bias.
Identifying and responding to risks
of material misstatement due to non-
compliance with laws and regulations
We identified areas of laws and regulations that
could reasonably be expected to have a material
effect on the financial statements from our
sector experience and through discussion with
management (as required by auditing standards),
and from inspection of the Company’s regulatory
and legal correspondence, if any, and discussed
with management the policies and procedures
regarding compliance with laws and regulations. As
the Company is regulated, our assessment of risks
involved gaining an understanding of the control
environment including the entity’s procedures for
complying with regulatory requirements.
The Company is subject to laws and regulations
that directly affect the financial statements including
financial reporting legislation and taxation legislation
and we assessed the extent of compliance with these
laws and regulations as part of our procedures on the
related financial statement items.
The Company is subject to other laws and
regulations where the consequences of non-
compliance could have a material effect on amounts
or disclosures in the financial statements, for instance
through the imposition of fines or litigation or
impacts on the Company’s ability to operate. We
identified financial services regulation as being the
area most likely to have such an effect, recognising
the regulated nature of the Company’s activities and
its legal form. Auditing standards limit the required
audit procedures to identify non-compliance
with these laws and regulations to enquiry of
management and inspection of regulatory and
legal correspondence, if any. Therefore if a breach
of operational regulations is not disclosed to us or
evident from relevant correspondence, an audit will
not detect that breach.
Context of the ability of the audit to detect
fraud or breaches of law or regulation
Owing to the inherent limitations of an audit, there is
an unavoidable risk that we may not have detected
some material misstatements in the financial
statements, even though we have properly planned
22 | Secured Fixed Income - Annual accounts for the year ended 31 March 2026
Section 5: Independent auditor’s report
and performed our audit in accordance with auditing
standards. For example, the further removed non-
compliance with laws and regulations is from the
events and transactions reflected in the financial
statements, the less likely the inherently limited
procedures required by auditing standards would
identify it.
In addition, as with any audit, there remains a
higher risk of non-detection of fraud, as this may
involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions,
misrepresentations, or the override of internal
controls. Our audit procedures are designed
to detect material misstatement. We are not
responsible for preventing non-compliance or fraud
and cannot be expected to detect non-compliance
with all laws and regulations.
Other information
The directors are responsible for the other
information, which comprises the strategic report,
the directors’ report and the other information
included in the annual report, but does not include
the financial statements and our auditor’s report
thereon. Our opinion on the financial statements
does not cover the other information and,
accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion
or, except as explicitly stated below, any form of
assurance conclusion thereon.
Our responsibility is to read the other information
and, in doing so, consider whether, based on our
financial statements audit work, the information
therein is materially misstated or inconsistent with
the financial statements or our audit knowledge.
Based solely on that work:
• we have not identified material misstatements in
the other infor
mation;
•
in our opinion the infor
mation given in the
strategic r
eport and the directors’ r
eport for
the financial year is consistent with the financial
statements; and
•
in our opinion those reports have been prepar
ed
in accor
dance with the Companies Act 2006.
We have nothing to report on other matters on
which we are required to report by exception
Under the Companies Act 2006, we are required to
report to you if, in our opinion:
•
adequate accounting recor
ds have not been kept,
or r
etur
ns adequate for our audit have not been
r
eceived fr
om branches not visited by us; or
•

Respective responsibilities
Directors’ responsibilities
As explained more fully in their statement set out
on pages 14 & 15, the directors are responsible for:
the preparation of the financial statements including
being satisfied that they give a true and fair view;
such internal control as they determine is necessary
to enable the preparation of financial statements
that are free from material misstatement, whether
due to fraud or error; 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
they either intend to liquidate the Company or to
cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but
to do so.
Auditor’s responsibilities
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance
about whether the financial statements as a whole
are free from material misstatement, whether due
to fraud or error, and to issue our opinion in an
auditor’s report. Reasonable assurance is a high
level of assurance, but does not guarantee that an
audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will
always detect a material misstatement when it exists.
Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are
considered material if, individually or in aggregate,
they could reasonably be expected to influence the
economic decisions of users taken on the basis of the
financial statements.

Notes to the financial statements
1 Accounting policies
Company information
Secured Fixed Income plc is a public Company limited by shares incorporated in England and Wales. The
registered office is 1 King William Street, London, EC4N 7AF.
1.1 Accounting convention
These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with FRS 102 “The Financial Reporting Standard
applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland” (“FRS 102”) and the requirements of the Companies Act 2006.
The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the Company. Monetary
amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, modified to include certain
financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value through profit or loss. The Company applies FRS 102
Section 12 (Other Financial Instruments Issues) for measuring financial instruments. Under Section 12, financial
instruments not classified as basic are measured at fair value through profit or loss, with gains and losses
recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income. The principal accounting policies adopted are set
out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated.
Certain comparative figures have been reclassified to conform with current year presentation.
At the time of approving the financial statements, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the
Company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the next 12 months from the
approval of the financial statements. In coming to this conclusion, the directors have considered the impact of
current geopolitical and macro-economic matters, together with the results of a scenario analysis performed
over the Company’s cash flow forecasts for the period to 31 October 2027.
The directors’ assessment compared a base case forecast — built on the Company’s fundraise forecast, bond
maturity schedule, interest rate forward curve and loan book repayment and deployment forecasts — against
a severe but plausible downside scenario. This downside scenario assumed an immediate 50% reduction in
fundraising and loan deployment, together with additional specific bad debt provisions of £2 million, and
demonstrated that the Company would continue to service all bondholder redemptions and remain able to
deploy capital to existing borrowers throughout the assessment period. The directors also performed reverse
stress testing to identify the combination of events that would need to occur for the Company to be unable to
meet its obligations — a cessation of new fundraising combined with a 75% reduction in loan repayments and
bad debts of £2 million — and concluded that such a combination is remote, given the security held over 98%
of the loan book and the Company’s credit monitoring and debt restructuring capabilities.
Thus the directors continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial
statements.
1.2 Revenue
Turnover represents the share of profits received from the LLPs in which the Company is a member, interest
earnings from loans and similar advances, and fee income.
29 | Secured Fixed Income - Annual accounts for the year ended 31 March 2026
Notes to the financial statements
Arrangement fees are charged to borrowers in consideration for discrete services rendered by the Company at
the point of loan origination, including credit assessment, due diligence, and legal structuring. As these fees
are consideration for services substantially delivered at inception and are not integral to the effective yield
of the loan, they are recognised as revenue at the point at which the services are substantially complete, in
accordance with FRS 102 Section 23. The fees are not included within the effective interest rate calculation as
they do not represent a transaction cost or fee integral to the financial instrument within the meaning of FRS
102 paragraphs 11.13 and 11.15.
1.3 Intangible fixed assets other than goodwill
Intangible assets acquired separately from a business are recognised at cost and are subsequently measured
at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses.
Intangible assets acquired on business combinations are recognised separately from goodwill at the
acquisition date where it is probable that the expected future economic benefits that are attributable to the
asset will flow to the entity and the fair value of the asset can be measured reliably; the intangible asset arises
from contractual or other legal rights; and the intangible asset is separable from the entity.
Amortisation is recognised so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets less their residual values over their
useful lives on the following bases:
Softwar
e Straight line over 5 years
Loanbook software Straight line over 10 years
1.4 Membership Inter
ests
Membership interests in limited liability partnerships (LLPs) are financial instruments within the scope of
FRS 102 Section 11/12. As the interests do not have the basic fixed or determinable payment terms of a
debt instrument, and the Company’s documented investment strategy is to manage and evaluate the LLPs’
performance on a fair value basis, they are designated as financial assets at fair value through profit or loss. On
initial recognition, membership interests are measured at cost, being the fair value of consideration given plus
directly attributable transaction costs. They are subsequently measured at fair value at each reporting date,
with all gains and losses arising on remeasurement recognised in profit or loss. See note 12 for measurement
and valuation technique.
1.5 Impairment of non-current assets
At each reporting period end date, the Company reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible and intangible
assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any
such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the
impairment loss (if any). Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the
Company estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.
Recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. In assessing value in use, the
estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects
current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset for which the
estimates of future cash flows have not been adjusted.
If the recoverable amount of an asset (or cash-generating unit) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount,
the carrying amount of the asset (or cash-generating unit) is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment
loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss, unless the relevant asset is carried at a revalued amount, in
which case the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation decrease.
30 | Secured Fixed Income - Annual accounts for the year ended 31 March 2026
Notes to the financial statements
Recognised impairment losses are reversed if, and only if, the reasons for the impairment loss have ceased to
apply. Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset (or cash-generating
unit) is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but so that the increased carrying amount
does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been
recognised for the asset (or cash-generating unit) in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognised
immediately in profit or loss, unless the relevant asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case the
reversal of the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation increase.
1.6 Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents are basic financial assets and include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks,
other short-term liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less. Bank overdrafts are shown
within borrowings in current liabilities.
1.7 Financial instruments
The Company has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 ‘Basic Financial Instruments’ and Section 12
‘Other Financial Instruments Issues’ of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments.
Financial instruments are recognised in the Company’s statement of financial position when the Company
becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the financial statements, when
there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a
net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
Basic financial assets
Basic financial assets, which include trade and other receivables, are initially measured at transaction price
including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method
unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present
value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest.
Other financial assets
Other financial assets, including investments in equity instruments which are not subsidiaries, associates or
joint ventures, are initially measured at fair value, which is normally the transaction price. Such assets are
subsequently carried at fair value and the changes in fair value are recognised in profit or loss.
Impairment of financial assets
Financial assets, other than those held at fair value through profit and loss, are assessed for indicators of
impairment at each reporting end date.
Financial assets are impaired where there is objective evidence that, as a result of one or more events that
occurred after the initial recognition of the financial asset, the estimated future cash flows have been affected.
If an asset is impaired, the impairment loss is the difference between the carrying amount and the present
value of the estimated cash flows discounted at the asset’s original effective interest rate. The impairment loss
is recognised in profit or loss.
If there is a decrease in the impairment loss arising from an event occurring after the impairment was
recognised, the impairment is reversed. The reversal is such that the current carrying amount does not
exceed what the carrying amount would have been, had the impairment not previously been recognised. The
impairment reversal is recognised in profit or loss.
31 | Secured Fixed Income - Annual accounts for the year ended 31 March 2026
Notes to the financial statements
Derecognition of financial assets
Financial assets are derecognised only when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire or
are settled, or when the Company transfers the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of
ownership to another entity, or if some significant risks and rewards of ownership are retained but control of
the asset has transferred to another party that is able to sell the asset in its entirety to an unrelated third party.
Classification of financial liabilities
Financial liabilities and equity instruments are classified according to the substance of the contractual
arrangements entered into. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets
of the Company after deducting all of its liabilities.
Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method.
Trade payables are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of
business from suppliers. Amounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year
or less. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade payables are recognised initially at transaction
price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
Other financial liabilities
Derivatives, including interest rate swaps and forward foreign exchange contracts, are not basic financial
instruments. Derivatives are initially recognised at fair value on the date a derivative contract is entered into
and are subsequently re-measured at their fair value. Changes in the fair value of derivatives are recognised
in profit or loss in finance costs or finance income as appropriate, unless hedge accounting is applied and the
hedge is a cash flow hedge.
Basic financial liabilities meet the conditions in FRS 102 11.9 and are measured at amortised cost using the
effective interest method. Debt instruments held as assets that do not meet the conditions in FRS 102 11.9 are
measured at fair value through profit or loss under Section 12. The Company may designate a debt instrument
as measured at fair value through profit or loss to eliminate or reduce an accounting mismatch, or where the
instrument is managed and its performance evaluated on a fair value basis in accordance with a documented
risk management or investment strategy; no such designations have been made.
Derecognition of financial liabilities
Financial liabilities are derecognised when the Company’s contractual obligations expire or are discharged or
cancelled.
1.8 Equity instruments
Equity instruments issued by the Company are recorded at the proceeds received, net of transaction costs.
Dividends payable on equity instruments are recognised as liabilities once they are no longer at the discretion
of the Company.
1.9 Taxation
The tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax.
Current tax
The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from net profit as
reported in the Statement of Comprehensive Income because it excludes items of income or expense that are
taxable or deductible in other years and it further excludes items that are never taxable or deductible.
32 | Secured Fixed Income - Annual accounts for the year ended 31 March 2026
Notes to the financial statements
The Company’s liability for current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively
enacted by the reporting end date.
Deferred tax
Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all timing differences and deferred tax assets are
recognised to the extent that it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax
liabilities or other future taxable profits. Such assets and liabilities are not recognised if the timing difference
arises from goodwill or from the initial recognition of other assets and liabilities in a transaction that affects
neither the tax profit nor the accounting profit.
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each reporting end date and reduced to the extent
that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to
be recovered. Deferred tax is calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period when the
liability is settled or the asset is realised. Where items recognised in other comprehensive income or equity
are chargeable to or deductible for tax purposes, the resulting current or deferred tax expense or income is
presented in the same component of comprehensive income or equity as the transaction or other event that
resulted in the tax expense or income.
1.10 Foreign exchange
Transactions in currencies other than sterling are recorded at the rates of exchange prevailing at the dates of
the transactions. At each reporting end date, monetary assets and liabilities that are denominated in foreign
currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing on the reporting end date. Gains and losses arising on
translation in the period are included in profit or loss.
1.11 Finance income and costs
Finance income and costs includes finance income and costs on the Company’s financial instruments owned,
short-term and long-term borrowings. These are recorded using the effective interest rates of the financial
assets or financial liabilities to which they relate.
1.12 Interest income on loan receivables
Interest income on loan receivables is recognised in the statement of comprehensive income on an accruals
basis. Interest is calculated at the contractual interest rate applied to the outstanding principal balance of
each loan from the date of drawdown. Where a loan receivable is assessed as impaired, the accrual of interest
income is suspended on any loan where recovery of interest and principal is considered doubtful; interest on
such loans is recognised only to the extent that cash is received or recovery becomes probable. Once a loan is
impaired, any interest already accrued but considered irrecoverable is written off.
1.13 Profit share from membership interests in limited liability partnerships
The Company holds membership interests in limited liability partnerships (LLPs) that are classified as financial
assets at fair value through profit or loss under FRS 102 Section 12. Profits allocated to the Company by the
LLPs in accordance with the terms of each partnership agreement are reflected as income when the right to
receive the allocation is established under the partnership agreement. Cash distributions received (withdrawn
capital and profit) are recognised as a reduction in the carrying amount of the membership interest. All
movements in fair value are recognised in the statement of comprehensive income in the period in which they
arise.

Notes to the financial statements
2 Critical accounting judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty
In the application of the Company’s accounting policies, the directors are required to make judgements,
estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent
from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other
factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting
estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that
period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future
periods. The key assumptions or estimation uncertainties at the statement of financial position date that have
a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the
next financial year, are discussed below.
(i) Classification of LLP inter
ests
In determining the appropriate accounting treatment for the Company’s inter
ests in limited liability
partnerships (LLPs), the dir
ectors have exercised judgement as to whether those inter
ests constitute basic
financial instruments (measur
ed at amortised cost), other financial instruments (measur
ed at fair value),
or inter
ests in associates or jointly controlled entities. Having considered the natur
e of the arrangements,
including the absence of significant influence or contr
ol and the contractual right to a variable retur
n linked to
the perfor
mance of the underlying lending portfolio, the directors have concluded that the LLP interests ar
e
appr
opriately classified as financial assets measured at fair value through pr
ofit or loss under Section 12 of FRS
102. See note 12 for Membership Inter
ests.
(ii) T
reatment of arrangement fees
The directors have exercised judgement in determining whether arrangement fees charged to borr
owers
ar
e integral to the effective yield of the associated loan assets and should therefor
e be included within the
ef
fective interest rate calculation under FRS 102, or whether they represent consideration for discr
ete services
r
endered at origination and should be recognised as revenue. Having consider
ed the substance of the services
pr
ovided the directors have concluded that the fees are not integral to the loan yield and are appr
opriately
r
ecognised as revenue.
(iii) Loan impair
ment — provision for bad debts
The Company assesses at each reporting date whether ther
e is objective evidence that any loan asset is
impair
ed. The directors exercise judgement in identifying indicators of impairment, including borr
ower
financial dif
ficulty, breach of contractual terms, and observable deterioration in the cr
editworthiness of
borr
owers. Where impairment is identified, the recoverable amount is estimated as the pr
esent value of
expected futur
e cash flows, discounted at the loan’s original effective interest rate, with refer
ence to the value
and enfor
ceability of any collateral held. The provision for bad debts represents management’
s best estimate
of irr
ecoverable amounts and is a key source of estimation uncertainty; actual outcomes may differ fr
om these
estimates as borr
ower circumstances and economic conditions evolve.

9 Operating Segments
Although FRS 102 does not include a specific section addressing segmental reporting, FRS 102 paragraph
1.5 requires an entity with debt instruments admitted to trading on a regulated market to apply the disclosure
requirements of IFRS 8 Operating Segments. As the Company has bonds listed on The London Stock
Exchange, the following disclosures are provided.
Identification of operating segments
Operating segments are identified on the basis of the internal reports regularly reviewed by the Company’s
chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), identified as the Board of Directors, in order to allocate resources
and assess performance.
Single operating segment
The Company operates a single segment: the provision of secured lending through investments in limited
liability partnerships. All revenue, costs, assets and liabilities reported in these financial statements relate to
this single segment. There are no other segments that meet the quantitative thresholds in IFRS 8.

Notes to the financial statements
The membership interests represent interests in EPayments Trading Partners LLP, Lendnet LLP, Telecom Capital
Trading Partners LLP, LendNet Property LLP, Triple Point IGF LLP and Triple Point IGF2 LLP, all limited liability
partnerships registered in England and Wales. The registered office of these partnerships is 1 King William
Street, London, EC4N 7AF.
Fair value measurement
The Company’s membership interests in LLP lending partnerships are classified as financial assets at fair
value through profit or loss in accordance with FRS 102 Section 12. These are measured at fair value at each
reporting date, with changes in fair value recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income.
Management assessed the fair value of the membership interests at 31 March 2026 by reference to the
underlying loan portfolios held by those LLPs, discounting expected contractual cash flows using current
market interest rates applicable to instruments with similar maturity, credit risk and collateral characteristics.
The weighted average market rate, based on the coupon rate of loans originated in the quarter to 31 March
2026, differed from the portfolio effective interest rate by less than 10 basis points.
The resulting fair value compared with an amortised cost carrying value produced a difference of 0.07%.
Accordingly, the Directors concluded that amortised cost is a reasonable approximation of fair value and that
any valuation difference is not material.
Valuation methodology
The fair value of each membership interest is determined by reference to the Company’s proportionate share
of the net assets of the relevant LLP, as reported in its most recent management accounts. The net assets
of each LLP principally comprise its loan receivables (net of provisions for bad and doubtful debts), cash
balances, and accrued income, less any liabilities.
Fair value hierarchy
The fair value measurements are categorised as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy as the inputs used are
not based on observable market data. There is no active market for interests in the Company’s lending
partnerships.
Sensitivity analysis
If the provision rate applied to the aggregate loan book held across the LLPs were increased by 1 percentage
point, the fair value of the membership interests would not decrease materially. The directors consider the
provision rate to be the most significant unobservable input affecting the fair value measurement.

D. Concentration of cr
edit risk
The Company’s loan portfolio is concentrated in lending to SMEs across the specialty finance and property
development finance sectors, as described above. The largest single borrower represented 8.2% of the total
gross direct loan book at 31 March 2026 (2025: 7.2%). The Company manages concentration risk through
sector diversification and ongoing monitoring by its credit monitoring committees.
The Company monitors the credit quality of its lending portfolio through regular reviews by its credit
monitoring committees. Loans are assessed individually for impairment, and specific provisions are established
where objective evidence of impairment exists. The Company’s lending is diversified across multiple
sectors including SME debt finance, specialty finance, and property development finance, which mitigates
concentration risk.

The bonds in issue at 31 March 2026 are issued under the Company’s Unlisted and Listed Bond Programmes
and are secured on a pari passu basis by fixed and floating charges over the Company’s assets pursuant to
the Security Trust Deed. The aggregate nominal amount that may be outstanding across both programmes is
capped at £1 billion.
The Listed Bond Programme was established during the year, with the inaugural issuance completed in March
2026. Listed bonds are admitted to the FCA Official List and traded on the Main Market of the London Stock
Exchange, rank pari passu with the Unlisted bonds, and share the same security package.
The bonds are issued in sterling at fixed rates, with terms of 1, 2 or 3 years; interest is paid either monthly in
arrear or compounded and paid on maturity, and principal is repaid as a bullet on the maturity date. Coupons
on bonds in issue range from 5.55% to 7.75% per annum. The Company is subject to negative pledge and
customary information and financial covenants under the Security Trust Deed and, as a listed debt issuer, to
ongoing obligations under the FCA Listing Rules, Disclosure and Transparency Rules (DTRs) and UK Market
Abuse Regulation (UK MAR). The Company’s bonds are further secured on a pari passu basis by fixed and
floating charges over all of the Company’s assets pursuant to a Security Trust Deed, under which Prudential
Trustee Company Limited acts as Security Trustee for the bondholders.
Security and covenants
All bonds are secured by a fixed and floating charge over the assets of the Company. The fixed and floating
charge constitutes an all-assets charge over the assets of the Company, including without limitation the
Company’s direct loan receivables, membership interests in lending partnerships, and cash and cash
equivalents. No individual assets are specifically ring-fenced or excluded from the charge.
The Company is required to maintain an asset coverage ratio (net lending assets plus cash divided by bonds
outstanding) of at least 1.0x at all times. At 31 March 2026 the asset coverage ratio was 1.1x (2025: 1.1x).
Maturity analysis
At 31 March 2026, bonds with a carrying value of £42.8m (2025: £36.6m) were repayable within one year and
bonds with a carrying value of £61.8m (2025: £47.6m) were repayable after more than one year but within five
years. No bonds have a maturity date beyond five years from the reporting date.
Fair value
£14,150,000 of the bonds in issue are listed on the London Stock Exchange; the remaining £90,507,750 are
unlisted. For the listed bonds, fair value is determined by reference to the quoted market price on the London
Stock Exchange. For the unlisted bonds, no quoted market price is available; the Directors consider that the
carrying value of the unlisted bonds approximates their fair value, given that they are issued at fixed rates that
remain broadly consistent with prevailing market rates for instruments of similar risk and tenor.

Fair value hierarchy: The listed bonds are classified as Level 1, as their fair value is derived from a quoted
price in an active market for the identical instrument. The unlisted bonds are classified as Level 2, as their fair
value is estimated using observable market rates for instruments of similar risk and tenor rather than a quoted
price.

19 Related party transactions
Transactions with related parties
At the year end a director and a close family member had interests within the bonds issued by the entity. The
value of the bonds held had a total value of £417,295 (2025: £397,295).
The Company has taken advantage of the exemption in FRS 102 from disclosing related party transactions
with wholly owned members of the same group.
20 Ultimate controlling party
The parent undertaking is Triple Point Holdings Limited. The directors do not consider there to be any one
ultimate controlling party.
The smallest and largest group in which the results of the Company are consolidated is that headed by
Triple Point LLP, 1 King William Street, London, United Kingdom, EC4N 7AF. Copies of the group financial
statements are available to the public at 1 King William Street, London, United Kingdom, EC4N 7AF.
21 Financial risk management
The Company is exposed to credit risk, liquidity risk, interest rate risk and price risk arising from its financial
instruments. This note sets out the Company’s exposure to each of these risks, together with the Company’s
objectives, policies and processes for managing them and the methods used to measure them.
Financial institution classification
The directors have assessed that the Company meets the definition of a financial institution under FRS 102
(Glossary; paragraph 34.17), as its principal activity is the provision of secured lending, funded through the
issuance of listed debt instruments. Accordingly, in addition to the disclosures required by Sections 11 and
12, the Company provides the additional disclosures required by paragraphs 34.19 to 34.33 of FRS 102 in this
note.
44 | Secured Fixed Income - Annual accounts for the year ended 31 March 2026
Notes to the financial statements
Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk that borrowers fail to meet their contractual obligations to pay interest or repay capital,
resulting in arrears, impairment charges or capital loss to the Company, and that the loan book becomes
over-exposed to a single borrower, counterparty or sector. This is the Company’s principal financial risk, arising
both from the direct loan book held on the Company’s own balance sheet and from the Company’s secured
lending activities conducted through the LLP lending partnerships, and is mitigated by security held against
the underlying borrowers’ assets. The maximum exposure to credit risk at the reporting date is represented
by the carrying amount of the direct loan book (net: £53,457,462; 2025: £46,343,152) and the membership
interests (£53,367,142; 2025: £40,595,278). The Company manages this risk through conservative underwriting
standards and sector and borrower concentration limits, with lending diversified across its established lending
strategies. All new credit is subject to approval by the Company’s credit committee, and watchlist and non-
performing loan positions are reviewed monthly. Quantitative disclosures on credit risk, including the gross-to-
net reconciliation, ageing analysis, concentration of credit risk and collateral held, are set out in note 13 above.
Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company is unable to meet its maturing bond obligations or operating
commitments as they fall due as a result of insufficient liquidity. The Company manages this risk by monitoring
the maturity profile of its bond liabilities against expected cash inflows from its lending assets, and by
targeting retained earnings of at least 2.5% of bonds in issue together with a liquidity buffer of £2m–£5m
following maturity management. The Board reviews stressed liquidity scenarios on a regular basis. The
contractual maturity analysis of the Company’s financial assets and financial liabilities, based on undiscounted
cash flows, is set out below, and the asset coverage covenant described under Capital management below
provides a further safeguard for bondholders.

Notes to the financial statements
21 Financial risk management (continued)
I nterest rate risk
The Company’s bonds are issued at fixed rates and the Company’s lending portfolio is predominantly at
fixed rates. As a result, the Company has limited direct exposure to interest rate fluctuations on its existing
portfolio: a 100 basis point increase in market interest rates would not have a material impact on the interest
margin generated by the Company’s existing fixed-rate portfolio. Sustained changes in market interest rates
could, however, affect the pricing of new issuances and new lending, and, more broadly, influence borrower
demand, the credit quality of the loan book and investor appetite for fixed income products, as set out in
the Company’s principal risks disclosures in the Strategic Report. The Company’s diversified sector approach
is designed to mitigate exposure to market risk. Borrower selection applies robust cashflow and leverage
requirements.
Price risk
The Company holds membership interests in LLPs that are measured at fair value through profit or loss. These
interests are subject to price risk to the extent that the fair value of the underlying loan portfolios held by
the LLPs may fluctuate due to changes in credit conditions, borrower performance, or collateral values. The
directors manage this risk through ongoing monitoring of the LLP portfolios and maintaining diversification
across borrowers and sectors. Sensitivity analysis is provided in the membership interests note 12 above.
Capital management
The Company manages its capital to ensure it will be able to continue as a going concern while meeting its
obligations to bondholders and other stakeholders. The Company’s capital comprises called up share capital
and retained earnings.
The Company is required under the terms of its bond trust deed to maintain an asset coverage ratio of at least
1.0 times, being the ratio of total assets to total bond liabilities. At 31 March 2026, the asset coverage ratio
was 1.1x (2025: 1.1x), and the Company has complied with this requirement throughout the year. The directors
review the capital structure on an ongoing basis, and the Company is not subject to any externally imposed
capital requirements other than the asset coverage covenant described above. This asset coverage covenant,
together with the liquidity risk management approach set out above, represents the Company’s primary
financial safeguards for bondholders.

Unaudited Performance Measures
1 Additional Performance Measures (APMs)
For the purposes of these financial statements, the Company defines Alternative Performance Measures
(APMs) as financial measures of historical or future financial performance, financial position, or cash flows that
are not defined or specified in the applicable financial reporting framework, FRS 102.
The key APMs used and disclosed by the Company are Profit before Group Deductions, the Interest Coverage
Ratio, Total Loan Book and the Asset Coverage Ratio. The following tables provide the definition, use, and
reconciliation of the key APMs used by the Company.
1.1 Profit before Group Deductions
Definition and Use
Profit before Group Deductions (PBG Deductions) is defined as the Company’s Profit after Tax and Group
Costs, adjusted to exclude the impact of Triple Point Group Costs and Internal recharges. Management uses
this APM to evaluate the financial performance of the underlying business before the allocation of centralised
Group costs, which aids in assessing the operational efficiency of the Company’s lending activities.
Operating expenses include an allocation of the Triple Point Group Costs and Internal Recharges. Group costs
typically comprise centralised administrative and governance functions, including executive leadership, legal,
and regulatory compliance.
