STRATEGIC REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 APRIL 2023

Introduction
 
The directors present their strategic report together with the audited financial statements for the year ended 30 April 2023.
The principal activity of the Company during the period was managing the administration of the investment opportunity for our bond-holders.

Business review
 
The investment is provided to Golfbreaks Limited under an intra-company loan agreement to underpin investment required for new markets and an increased focus on digital improvements to the customer journey.

Principal risks and uncertainties
 
Whilst there are no key performance indicators relevant to the Company, the directors set and review policies for managing each of the other trading entities within the Group which are explained in detail in the Group strategic report of Golfbreaks Limited.

Future developments

The Company is required to be informed six months prior to the four-year anniversary date of issuance, or any subsequent anniversary date thereafter, if any individual bond-holder wishes to redeem their bond. Otherwise, as per the terms of the bond instruments, the bond will automatically rollover on an annual basis.
For Golfbreaks Bond 1, the next notification date is 15 January 2024 for redemption in July 2024. At the period end, the liability is contractually due after more than one year and is classified as due after more than one year. Prior to the period ended 30 April 2023 and by the January 2023 deadline for the redemption of bonds in July 2023, the Company had received notice for redemptions totalling £77,000 (2022: £47,000), as a result the majority of the bond has rolled over.
For Golfbreaks Bond 2, the next notification date was 16 May 2023. At the year end the liability is contractually due within 12 months as redemption is for November 2023. However, as at the signing of these financial statements, redemptions in respect of Bond 2 were known and amounted to £96,000 (2022: £47,000). £96,000 has been classified as due within one year and the rest classified as amounts owed after more than one year.

Going concern

The Golfbreaks Limited group reported profit for the year of £2,933,165 (2022: 1,383,879) and has a Net Surplus in Shareholders' Funds of £443,925. The financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis as the directors have prepared sensitised forecasts for the Group and having undertaken a review of the future financing requirements for on-going operations of the Group, are satisfied that sufficient cash facilities are secured to meet its working capital requirements, which includes Golfbreaks Bonds Plc, for at least 12 months from the date of signing of these financial statements. Further details of the directors' assessment of going concern are given in note 2.3 to the financial statements.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF GOLFBREAKS BONDS PLC
 

Opinion


We have audited the financial statements of Golfbreaks Bonds PLC (the 'Company') for the year ended 30 April 2023, which comprise the Statement of Comprehensive Income, the Statement of Financial Position, the Statement of Changes in Equity and the related notes, including a summary of significant accounting policiesThe financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 ‘The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).


In our opinion the financial statements:


give a true and fair view of the state of the Company's affairs as at 30 April 2023 and of its profit for the year then ended;
have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and
have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006.


Basis for opinion


We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the United Kingdom, including the Financial Reporting Council's Ethical Standard and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.


Conclusions relating to going concern


In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.


Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.


Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the directors with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF GOLFBREAKS BONDS PLC (CONTINUED)


Other information


The other information comprises the information included in the Annual Report other than the financial statements and  our Auditors' Report thereon.  The directors are responsible for the other information contained within the Annual Report.  Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. Our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the course of the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.  If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves.  If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact.


We have nothing to report in this regard.


Opinion on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006
 

In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:


the information given in the Strategic Report and the Directors' Report for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and
the Strategic Report and the Directors' Report have been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.


Matters on which we are required to report by exception
 

In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the Company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Strategic Report or the Directors' Report.


We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:


adequate accounting records have not been kept, or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or
the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or
certain disclosures of directors' remuneration specified by law are not made; or
we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit.


Responsibilities of directors
 

As explained more fully in the Directors' Responsibilities Statement set out on page 3, the directors are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.


In preparing the financial statements, the directors are responsible for assessing the Company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF GOLFBREAKS BONDS PLC (CONTINUED)


Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements
 

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an Auditors' Report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.


Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below:

- We exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit;
- We identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the deliberate override of internal control;
- We obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of internal control;
- We evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made;
- We assess the risk of management override of controls, including testing journal entries and other adjustments for appropriateness, and evaluating the business rationale of significant transactions outside the normal course of business;
- We request and review the minutes of management meetings, and assess any matters identified not already provided for or disclosed that may materially impact the financial statements;
- We conclude on the appropriateness of the director's use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the entity's ability to continue as a going concern. if we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor's report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor's report. However, future events or conditions may cause the entity to cease to continue as a going concern.


A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council's website at: www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our Auditors' Report.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 APRIL 2023

2.Accounting policies (continued)

 
2.3

Going concern

The directors have assessed the going concern basis of the preparation of the financial statements at a Group level. The Golfbreaks Limited Group reported profits for the period of £2,933,165 (2022: £1,383,879) and has a Net Surplus in Shareholders’ Funds of £443,925. The financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis as the directors have prepared sensitised forecasts for the Group and having undertaken a review of the future financing requirements for on-going operations of the Group, are satisfied that sufficient cash facilities are secured to meet its working capital requirements, which includes Golfbreaks Bonds Plc, for at least 12 months from the date of signing of these financial statements.
Bond Redemption
At 30 April 2023 the group has net current liabilities of £853,476 excluding bond redemption repayments of £173,000 due in the next 12 months from the balance sheet date. As part of their review, the directors have made certain estimates about the redemption of bond 1. The next potential notification date for bond 1 holders to request redemption of bonds is in January 2024, for redemption in July 2024. The directors have used an anticipated redemption rate based on the historic redemption experience of bond 1, since the first redemption window in January 2018, when forecasting. In the event of a 100% redemption requirement in July 2024 in respect of bond 1, the Group will still have sufficient headroom to meet its working capital requirements over the next 12 months. The next potential notification date for bond 2 holders to request redemption of bonds is in May 2024, for redemption in November 2024.
Recovery Post Coronavirus (COVID-19) Pandemic and Cost of Living Crisis 
The uncertainty as to the rate of recovery of the Group from the COVID-19 pandemic and the potential impact of the cost of living crisis on the recovery has also been considered as part of the Group's adoption of the going concern basis. Downside sensitivities were applied to the base case cashflow model to understand the potential impact of further deferred bookings or refunds, based on extended trading restrictions, future prospects, performance and an assessment of the economic environment.
The parent company directors continue to responsibly manage cash reserves and take the required commercially reasonable steps (including, options to pursue further financing) to mitigate any downside scenarios and ensure sufficient funds are available to satisfy anticipated bond redemptions over the 12 month period following the signing of these financial statements. For this reason, the directors of Golfbreaks Bonds Plc continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.

 
2.4

Interest income

Interest income is recognised in profit or loss using the effective interest method.

 
2.5

Finance costs

Finance costs are charged to profit or loss over the term of the debt using the effective interest method so that the amount charged is at a constant rate on the carrying amount. Issue costs are initially recognised as a reduction in the proceeds of the associated capital instrument.

 
2.6

Borrowing costs

All borrowing costs are recognised in profit or loss in the year in which they are incurred.

2.7

Taxation

Tax is recognised in profit or loss except that a charge attributable to an item of income and expense recognised as other comprehensive income or to an item recognised directly in equity is also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity respectively.

The current income tax charge is calculated on the basis of tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date in the countries where the Company operates and generates income.

 
2.8

Debtors

Short-term debtors are measured at transaction price, less any impairment. Loans receivable are measured initially at fair value, net of transaction costs, and are measured subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment.

 
2.9

Creditors

Short-term creditors are measured at the transaction price. Other financial liabilities, including bank loans, are measured initially at fair value, net of transaction costs, and are measured subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

 
2.10

Financial instruments

The Company only enters into basic financial instrument transactions that result in the recognition of financial assets and liabilities like trade and other debtors and creditors, loans from banks and other third parties, loans to related parties and investments in ordinary shares.

Debt instruments (other than those wholly repayable or receivable within one year), including loans and other accounts receivable and payable, are initially measured at present value of the future cash flows and subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Debt instruments that are payable or receivable within one year, typically trade debtors and creditors, are measured, initially and subsequently, at the undiscounted amount of the cash or other consideration expected to be paid or received. However, if the arrangements of a short-term instrument constitute a financing transaction, like the payment of a trade debt deferred beyond normal business terms or in case of an out-right short-term loan that is not at market rate, the financial asset or liability is measured, initially at the present value of future cash flows discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar debt instrument and subsequently at amortised cost, unless it qualifies as a loan from a director in the case of a small company, or a public benefit entity concessionary loan.

Financial assets that are measured at cost and amortised cost are assessed at the end of each reporting period for objective evidence of impairment. If objective evidence of impairment is found, an impairment loss is recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income.

For financial assets measured at amortised cost, the impairment loss is measured as the difference between an asset's carrying amount and the present value of estimated cash flows discounted at the asset's original effective interest rate. If a financial asset has a variable interest rate, the discount rate for measuring any impairment loss is the current effective interest rate determined under the contract.

2.10
Financial instruments (continued)

For financial assets measured at cost less impairment, the impairment loss is measured as the difference between an asset's carrying amount and best estimate of the recoverable amount, which is an approximation of the amount that the Company would receive for the asset if it were to be sold at the reporting date.

Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount reported in the Statement of Financial Position when there is an enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.


3.


Judgments in applying accounting policies and key sources of estimation uncertainty

In the application of the Company's accounting policies, the directors are required to make judgments, estimates and assumptions about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant.
Critical accounting estimates and assumptions
Recoverability of intercompany balances - When assessing the recoverable amount owed by Group undertakings, management considers factors including the debtors solvency and ability to pay loans within contractual terms.
The directors do not consider there to be any other significant judgments or estimates within the financial statements.

Other loans represent bonds issued to investors in prior periods by the Company. The initial term of the first bond expired in July 2018 and these are now on an annual redemption basis. The next redemption notification deadline is January 2024 for redemption in July 2024. Interest accrues at 7.5% or 10% per annum depending on the type of bond purchased, and is payable yearly on the anniversary of the issue of the bond. If the holder of the bond does not notify the Company of their wish to redeem the bond at least 6 months prior to the bond's redemption date (January), the bond automatically rolls over for a further year. The first bond is now not due for redemption until July 2024 (having received notice in January 2023 for redemptions in July 2023 amounting to £77,000) and has therefore been classified as being due after more than one year at the current balance sheet date. The Company will make the required redemption payments to bondholders in July 2023.
The initial term of the second bond expired in November 2020 and these are now on an annual redemption basis. The next redemption notification deadline is May 2023 for redemption in November 2023. Interest accrues at 7.5% per annum, and is payable every six months from the issue of the bond. Subsequent to the period end, and up to the redemption deadline in May 2023, the Company had received notice for redemptions totalling £96,000, as a result the majority of the bond has been rolled over and £96,000 has been classified, along with the £77,000 noted above, as due within one year (see note 11). 
The Bonds are guaranteed by Golfbreaks Limited.
