* Operating cost types are for illustrative purposes only and are not to scale

‘Gross revenue’ is the sum of total premiums paid by customers......we deduct associated underwriting expenses and sales taxes to reach reported Membership revenue or “net policy income”

Policies are underwritten by independent third party underwriters which gives short term protection from a spike in claims costs or frequencies. The cost of sending an engineer in the UK is recorded in operating costs, “repair network costs” and immediately recovered from the underwriter as “repair services income”...

...The UK P&L therefore has an element of zero margin revenue. In other businesses (North America, France, Spain) underwriting recovery is transacted through the balance sheet and is not margin dilutive.

The underwritten cost is that of “engineer, van and materials”. Other costs to handle the claim, deploy an engineer and back office functions to support these processes are all recorded in operating costs, as are the costs of marketingand the commissions paid to utility partners for successful sales activity.

Explainer: Working capital

23

Customer takes out a HomeServe policy on Jan 1st

which brings net policy income of £120. This revenue is recognised up front on 1st Jan, along with a receivable. A corresponding payable of £36 is recognised, being the fee due to the underwriter. This results in net working capital absorption of £84 on 1st Jan.

From January, monthly cash instalments are received from the customer, with the underwriter receiving payment 60 days after. At the year end a receivable of £90 remains on the balance sheet, with an associated payable of £33, resulting in net working capital absorption of £57 on 31st March.

Cash instalments from the customer continue to flow through on a monthly basis and the receivable is fully collected as at 31st Dec.

• As required by IFRS 15, revenue on Membership home assistance policy sales is recognised up front.

• The seasonality of policy sales remains weighted to the second half, and particularly the final quarter. The continued growth in the Membership business is therefore a big driver of the absorption of working capital on an annualised basis.

• Notwithstanding this, cash from the policy sales fully flows through within the subsequent 12 months – a feature of our highly cash generative model.
