Quindell confirms discussions with Slater & Gordon

StockMarketWire.com

Quindell (AIM: QPP.L) has commented on an article in yesterday's Sunday Times and confirmed that it remains in discussion with Slater & Gordon ("SGH") regarding the possible disposal of the professional services division ("PSD") of the Group.

The company said that a number of deal structures have been discussed with SGH including one with an up front value of £640m and a share of receipts from settlement of noise induced hearing loss cases.

However, there can be no certainty that these discussions will lead to any offer, or the disposal of the PSD division.

At 11:52am: (LON:QPP) Quindell Plc share price was +26p at 125.5p

Quindell nears law arm sale
By Harriet Mann | Mon, 16th March 2015 - 16:52


Quindell (QPP) has confirmed that it could sell its legal professional services division (PSD) to Australian law firm Slater & Gordon for £640 million in cash plus a share of receipts from the settlement of Noise Induced Hearing Loss cases. That could eventually value the division at £900 million. The news comes amid reports that business secretary Vince Cable has called on the Financial Conduct Authority to reveal more details about its investigation into Gotham City Research and allegations of market abuse last year.

Responding to weekend press speculation, Quindell said Slater & Gordon could pay the bulk of any consideration for PSD upfront, with receipts on top. According to the Sunday Times, those receipts could be worth £100-£300 million over the next three years.

Slater & Gordon is understood to have completed due diligence on Quindell and both companies could announce a deal by March 23, when the Australian group's "exclusivity" agreement runs out. Quindell and Slater & Gordon declined to comment.

"Quindell confirms that a number of deal structures have been discussed with SGH including one with an up-front value of £640 million and a share of receipts from settlement of Noise Induced Hearing Loss cases," read a brief statement on Monday.

As is usual in these cases, Quindell warned the market that nothing was certain. However, if Slater & Gordon does pay up, the implication is that the Aussies were happy with their own checks into accounting policies at the business. If Quindell has been consistent across the business, investors will become increasingly confident that a review being conducted by accountancy firm PwC will not reveal any nasties.

PwC said a fortnight ago that it needed another "few weeks" to complete its review, over three months after it began digging around. Quindell said it is considering advice about its main accounting policies, particularly on revenue recognition in the professional services division, although no conclusions have been reached.

Quindell shares shot up by a third on Monday to a three-month high at 134p, kissing the 200-day moving average for the first time in almost a year.

Elsewhere, Vince Cable and chairman of the Treasury Select Committee Andrew Tyrie have written to the FCA asking for more information on its response to Quindell's collapse in market value last April, the Independent has reported. The case has already been to court, a hearing Quindell won when Gotham failed to provide evidence.

Noise-induced hearing loss a disease, High Court rules
17 March 2015By John Hyde

The High Court has ruled that noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL) should be treated as a disease rather than an injury for the purpose of claims – and therefore be subject to higher success fees.

Mr Justice Phillips said four claims by former employees of BT should attract a solicitor’s success fee of 62.5% as their condition was regarded as a disease.

The claims, which had been settled, dated back to before the Jackson reforms and so success fees were recoverable by the claimants’ representatives from Cardiff firm Hugh James.

BT’s in-house team argued the noise-induced hearing loss claims should be treated as an injury according to the Civil Procedure Rules and subject to a 25% success fee.

Phillips said both claimants and defendants had accepted NIHL as a disease following an industry ‘settlement’ in 2005.

But the defendants’ stance changed from October 2012 when a ruling on non-freezing cold injury found it was classified as an ‘injury’ for the purposes of the success fees recoverable.

BT argued that the same principles involved in that case could be applied to NIHL as the condition was caused by immediate physical trauma, rather than a disease in any natural or ordinary sense.

But Phillips rejected that assertion and pointed out that occupational deafness has been ‘expressly defined’ as a disease through subordinate legislation since 1975.

He added: ‘[The] defendant’s insurers’ attempt to re-open (if not renege on) the industry agreement made in 2005 does them little credit. The large number of NIHL claims in which the argument about the success fee has been raised will have been funded by conditional fee agreements which were entered on the basis that a 62.5% success fee would be recovered.

‘To seek to limit such success fees to 25% is an opportunistic attempt to avoid part of the overall bargain.’

A spokesman for Hugh James said had the challenge been successful it would have resulted in uncertainty for many noise-induced hearing loss claimants.

‘The risk involved in conducting such a complex claim would mean that many could no longer be fought on the basis of risk, severely hampering access to justice for thousands.’

This offer for the Vauxhall ADAM was announced last month but just highlighting this advert which is dated today:

Young Drivers On The Road For Less
Article by luke.mezzone@cmsk.co.uk
March 19th, 2015

Following the success of its young driver insurance offer on Corsa, which was taken up by over 1,500 customers, Vauxhall is offering the same great deal to young ADAM drivers to help lower the cost of motoring.

Drivers aged 18-20 can get one year’s insurance cover for a one-off payment of £99, which they can even earn back, and 21-75 year olds can get free insurance on most ADAM models.*

“With young drivers potentially paying upwards of £2,000 for insurance when they are 18, this offer for ADAM drivers is an amazing deal and shows our commitment to lowering the cost of motoring,” said John Hennelly, Vauxhall’s Marketing Programmes Manager.

The £99 insurance offer for drivers aged 18-20 and the free insurance offer for 21-75 year old drivers is available for all eligible orders or registrations up until 6 th April 2015 when an ADAM is taken with either a 2.9% PCP contract or a contract hire agreement.

To qualify for the offer, 18-20 year old drivers simply have to allow insurance provider, ingenie, to install a ‘black box’ to monitor driving style, including speed, acceleration, braking and cornering. Under the previous Corsa offer, over 70 per cent of customers received a money back discount.

They will receive a score from ingenie every ten days or so (depending on mileage) via a smartphone app. If they drive well, they will be rewarded with up to £33 per quarter – meaning they could recoup the cost within 12 months.

“We’ve made it our mission to help get young drivers on the road without breaking the bank, and most importantly to keep them safe while they’re there,” said Richard King, founder and CEO of ingenie.

The offer is available on JAM, GLAM, SLAM, ROCKS and ROCKS AIR models in the ADAM range, with only the ADAM GRAND SLAM excluded. However, Vauxhall is making the GRAND SLAM as affordable as possible with a 2.9% flexible PCP contract offer, so drivers can get behind the wheel for just £199 per month with a deposit of £2,572.35.

ingenie Canada Inc. chooses Keal Technology as its Broker Management System Provider

Toronto, ON (Mar. 19, 2015) – Keal Technology, innovators in broker solutions, have announced that ingenie Canada Inc., an insurance telematics brand for young drivers, has selected Keal's SIG solution to support its newly launched online quote and buy system.

ingenie allows young drivers to be treated as individuals by use of its Smartbox telematics technology, which builds a picture of how they really drive. Customers are given a 10% up-front saving when they buy insurance with ingenie, and the opportunity to earn up to an extra 25% Good Driving Discount. Billing is reviewed three times each year, which means customers can start saving after just three months. Additionally, they receive regular driving feedback online or via their mobile app to help them improve.

Keal's SIG solution was chosen by ingenie as their Broker Management System. Working with ingenie's real time quote and buy website, SIG works behind the scenes to allow customers to gain a quote and then bind the policy online, capturing all of the customer information for the brokerage records. Payment can be taken via a number of methods, including credit card. SIG then integrates with Aviva's systems to send the policy information to them, which returns a policy number in real time into SIG.

Lorie Phair, CEO of ingenie Canada Inc., speaks to their decision to choose Keal, "The new ingenie quote system is the first to give young drivers the flexibility to get an insurance quote, check how much they could save by driving well, and then complete their purchase online. We chose Keal because they are the only vendor that would be able to quickly create the integration between prospects to insurer with the support and control of the brokerage."

Pat Durepos, President of Keal, states: "This solution is a great example of what e-brokers require in 2015. Consumers want to transact electronically from any device, 24/7 and 365 days a year. They also want to do this under the comfort of their trusted advisor Broker. This solution makes this a reality."

Keal's ability to respond to their Broker-Partners' changing needs opens the door to future development projects and innovations that will allow their clients to remain relevant in an ever-changing marketplace.

Aussie lawyers Slater & Gordon in exclusive talks to buy Quindell's legal services division - part 14



I hope your having a good weekend Betavillers.

I have been getting a lot of questions (and a fair amount of abuse, too) in recent days about the Slater & Gordon/Quindell story I have been covering in the last few weeks.

For readers that don't recall, the £640 million sale of Quindell's legal services division to Australian law firm Slater & Gordon had been scheduled to be announced tomorrow.

However, I understand the timetable for the announcement of the Slater & Gordon takeover of Quindell legal services unit changed last week.

Sources familiar with the situation tell me the deal is now on course to be announced at the end of this (upcoming) week instead of tomorrow - although one person cautioned there could be further delays to the timetable.

ingenie to sponsor Young Driver Focus 2015
Friday 20th March 2015



ingenie has been unveiled as the main sponsor of Young Driver Focus 2015, and Richard King, ingenie CEO, will deliver a keynote presentation at the event.

Young Driver Focus*, jointly organised by Road Safety GB & FirstCar, will be held at the RAC Club in central London on 15 April, courtesy of the RAC Foundation. With a capacity of 150 delegates the conference was fully subscribed more than a month prior to it taking place.

In a little over three years since formation, ingenie has disrupted the market and established itself as one of the leading insurance brands for young drivers.

ingenie is all about helping young people become better, safer drivers. By fitting a black box in the car, ingenie builds a picture of its customers’ unique driving styles so they can be treated as individuals and earn discounts for good driving.

ingenie provides regular driving feedback – including speed, acceleration, braking and cornering – both online and through the ingenie app. Customers can keep an eye on how they are driving and how much they are on track to save. Put simply, the concept is 'drive well, pay less'.

Since founding ingenie, Richard King has become passionate about road safety and is a regular TV and social media contributor on the issue.

Richard will use his presentation to give an overview of the positive impact of telematics within ingenie’s community of young drivers, evidence of which was revealed in its recent Young Driver Report. He will also discuss what it will take for the growth of telematics to continue, and what the future holds in terms of Government support.

Young Driver Focus 2015*

The conference comprises four sessions looking at young driver research and interventions, the use of telematics to influence driving behaviour, and the driver training process – plus an expert panel discussion session.

The conference will open with an address by HRH Prince Michael of Kent GCVO and the speaker line up includes: professor Stephen Stradling (Edinburgh Napier University), Michael McDonnell (Road Safety Scotland), Richard King (ingenie), Ian Edwards (eDriving Solutions) and Dr Shaun Helman (TRL).
