FRONTIER SOFTWARE PLC is a Public Limited Company registered in United Kingdom under 02512827, and its current status with Companies House is active. The company was incorporated on 18 June 1990 and lists its registered address as LIGHTWATER, United Kingdom. 2 shareholders are on record for FRONTIER SOFTWARE PLC, and since every one of them is a company rather than an individual, this particular filing does not on its own establish an ultimate beneficial owner (UBO) — identifying one would mean tracing the ownership of each shareholding company in turn. This profile is sourced directly from Companies House and was last updated on 4 October 2026.

Shareholders

2

Two shareholders are currently on record for FRONTIER SOFTWARE PLC, held on the Confirmation Statement (CS01), filed under the Companies Act 2006.

The largest of these is HOWARD FAMILY INVESTMENTS LIMITED, holding 100% — a majority holding — followed by TRUSTEES OF THE HOWARD FAMILY TRUST at 0%.

Because every shareholder shown is a company rather than an individual, the ownership chain continues above this level, and no beneficial owner can be established from this filing alone.

Three officers are currently on record for FRONTIER SOFTWARE PLC, filed with Companies House. Michael Howard (appointed 1991-06-18) and Stephen Pritchet (appointed 2001-11-23) both serve as Director; Jane Howard serves as Company Secretary.

Group Structure

FRONTIER SOFTWARE PLC sits 1 level below its ultimate parent, Howard Family Investments Limited, registered in United Kingdom. 5 subsidiaries are recorded beneath it, across 4 jurisdictions. Immediately above FRONTIER SOFTWARE PLC is Howard Family Investments Limited, holding 100% as filed in FRONTIER SOFTWARE PLC's own shareholder record with Companies House. Each of these downward relationships is derived rather than filed: resolved by matching entities across the registry network, not stated directly in a single document.

Those 5 subsidiaries span United Kingdom, New Zealand, Singapore, Australia jurisdictions, though this list should not be read as complete — subsidiaries only become visible here where shareholder data has actually been filed with a register, so holdings in jurisdictions without that filing simply won't appear. One of the 5 go a level deeper still, with its own further subsidiaries recorded beneath it — additional ownership layers this view doesn't expand.
