Accidents involving 100 car pile-ups, as happened in Kent yesterday, are going to happen more frequently in this country. The roads are over crowded and there are far too many 18 year-old boy/girl racers on four wheels trying to emulate Louis Hamilton, it's a recipe for disaster - bad news for the emergency services and A&E, but good news for HHR.

mitzy - 08 Sep 2013 21:44 - 27 of 60

Commenting on the Group's results and prospects, Martin Ward, Chief Executive Officer, said:



"We are pleased to report that the business has completed some significant changes to its financial structure, business model and cash profile during the year. The Group is now generating cash, is profitable and has shareholders' funds of over £77m. Significantly, we have returned to the dividend list with total dividends of £4.3m paid or declared. This is an outcome of the implementation of a number of changes made to build a more sustainable business model which has better secured the margins in the business as well as a renewed confidence from our long-standing shareholders who supported our financial restructuring plans in March 2013. Our people have played an important part in driving this change and we look forward to making further improvements going forward.



In a market that has remained challenging and competitive against a background of falling national accident rates our focus on providing a quality service to all of our Partners and their customers has been a key driver in our goal for success. The improvements in our operational systems and processes together with the efficiency and transparency achieved when presenting claims to insurers has also contributed to reducing debtor days to a record 126 days which is probably one of the best in the industry."
