An announcement from WH Ireland Group plc ( (GB:WHI) ) is now available.

WH Ireland reported interim results for the six months to 30 September 2025 showing revenue more than halved to £4.2m from £8.5m a year earlier, largely due to the prior sale of its Capital Markets division and the loss of key investment managers, while total assets under management fell to £0.97bn and the group posted a statutory pre-tax loss of £0.9m. Although administrative costs were cut by a similar proportion and losses narrowed, cash balances declined to £3.0m and the wealth management arm has been classified as held for sale, with the board pursuing a full exit that has culminated in a recommended £12.7m all-share acquisition by Jersey-based TEAM plc, expected to complete by the end of the first quarter of 2026 subject to court, shareholder and regulatory approvals; the deal aims to create a diversified, well-governed wealth and asset management group and is intended to support an orderly transfer for clients following a period of operational and market uncertainty.
