Strategic Report |
for the Year Ended 31 July 2023 |
The directors present their strategic report for the year ended 31 July 2023. |
The principal activities of the company in the year under review were those of Hairdressing Salons, Hairdressing Training delivering NVQ qualifications, educational hairdressing seminars and shows. |
REVIEW OF BUSINESS |
The Directors are satisfied with the performance for the year in view of the restructuring that has taken place. |
While there were substantial costs incurred in consolidating the business from 4 to 3 salons, the reduction in ongoing costs has proven to be positive and will lead to stronger profitability going forward. Overheads have been significantly reduced and staff retention is high due to the 'new' business footprint. |
PRINCIPAL RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES |
The current economic situation across the UK, driven by both domestic and worldwide events, have undoubtedly had an impact on consumer confidence but the Directors are confident that the measures taken to consolidate the business has created a strong platform for improved financial results in the months and years ahead. |

EVENTS SINCE THE END OF THE YEAR |

DIRECTORS |
The directors shown below have held office during the whole of the period from 1 August 2022 to the date of this report. |
Other changes in directors holding office are as follows: |
GOING CONCERN |
In carrying out their duties in respect of going concern, the directors have carried out a review of the group's financial position for a period of 12 months from the date of signing these financial statements. The company currently meets its day to day working capital requirements through its cash balance, which is sufficient to cover working capital requirements. The directors have a reasonable expectation that the group have adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Accordingly, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the annual reports and accounts. |
STATEMENT OF DIRECTORS' RESPONSIBILITIES |
The directors are responsible for preparing the Strategic Report, the Report of the Directors and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations. |
Company law requires the directors to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law the directors have elected to prepare the financial statements in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards and applicable law), including Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland'. Under company law the directors must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the company and of the profit or loss of the company for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the directors are required to: |
- | select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; |
- | make judgements and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent; |
- | prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the company will continue in business. |
The directors are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the company's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the company and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. |
STATEMENT AS TO DISCLOSURE OF INFORMATION TO AUDITORS |
So far as the directors are aware, there is no relevant audit information (as defined by Section 418 of the Companies Act 2006) of which the company's auditors are unaware, and each director has taken all the steps that he or she ought to have taken as a director in order to make himself or herself aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the company's auditors are aware of that information. |

Report of the Directors |
for the Year Ended 31 July 2023 |
AUDITORS |
The auditors, Douglas Home & Co (Audit) Ltd (Statutory Auditor), will be proposed for re-appointment at the forthcoming Annual General Meeting. |
ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD: |
Report of the Independent Auditors to the Members of |
Cheyne's (Management) Limited |
Opinion |
We have audited the financial statements of Cheyne's (Management) Limited (the 'company') for the year ended 31 July 2023 which comprise the Income Statement, Other Comprehensive Income, Statement of Financial Position, Statement of Changes in Equity, Statement of Cash Flows and Notes to the Statement of Cash Flows, Notes to the Financial Statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The 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 31 July 2023 and of its loss 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 UK, including the FRC'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. |
Other information |
The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information in the Strategic Report and the Report of the Directors, but does not include the financial statements and our Report of the Auditors thereon. |
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. |
In connection with our audit of the financial statements, 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 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. |
Opinions 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 Report of the Directors for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and |
- | the Strategic Report and the Report of the Directors have been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements. |
Report of the Independent Auditors to the Members of |
Cheyne's (Management) Limited |
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 Report of the Directors. |
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters where 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. |
- the directors were not entitled to prepare the financial statements in accordance with the small companies regime and take advantage of the small companies' exemptions in preparing the directors' report and from the requirement to prepare a strategic report. |
Responsibilities of directors |
As explained more fully in the Statement of Directors' Responsibilities set out on page three, 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 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. |
Report of the Independent Auditors to the Members of |
Cheyne's (Management) Limited |
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 a Report of the Auditors 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. |
The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below: |
We obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory frameworks that are applicable to the entity, focusing on provisions of those laws and regulations that had a direct effect on the determination of material amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The key laws and regulations we considered in this context included the Companies Act 2006, FRS102 and local tax legislation. The engagement partner ensured the engagement team had the necessary competence, capabilities, and skills to identify laws and regulations and they remained alert to such matters throughout the audit. |
Based on the results of our risk assessments we designed our audit procedures to identify non-compliance with such laws and regulation. We identified and evaluated the laws and regulations and enquired of management whether they were aware of any instances of non-compliance. We corroborated these through review of legal and professional fees and any correspondence with HMRC, alongside a review of Companies House updates. A full disclosure checklist was carried out. Tax computations were checked for accuracy of calculations and inputs. |
In addition, we considered provisions of other laws and regulations that do not have a direct effect on the financial statements but compliance with which may be fundamental to the company's ability to operate or to avoid a material penalty. The laws and regulations we considered in this context included UK Employment Law, Data Protection Act 2018 and Health and Safety regulations. |
Based on the results of our risk assessments we designed our audit procedures to identify non-compliance with such laws and regulation. We identified and evaluated the laws and regulation and enquired with management whether they were aware of any instances of non-compliance and what procedures were in place to ensure compliance. We corroborated this through review of correspondence with any regulators, review of policies for health and safety and data protection and reviewing submissions to HMRC. A walk through of the payroll processes was performed including review of contracts, gross to net pay checks, and verification checks of staff. |
We assessed the risks of material misstatement in respect of fraud via enquiries of management and those charged with governance as to where they considered there was susceptibility to fraud, their knowledge of actual, suspected and alleged fraud and considered the internal controls in place to mitigate risks of fraud. Permissions on the accounting software were checked and were appropriate to the staff role, access to online banking for making payments was also established, and evidence of authorisation and allocations of major expenditure were sought. The directors are heavily involved in the day to day running of the business and have good knowledge of the amount and expected timing of receipts from customers and payments to suppliers. |
To address the risk of fraud through management bias and override of controls we performed analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected relationships, tested journal entries to identify unusual transactions, assessed the level of subjectivity and estimation within the account balances and investigated the rationale behind any significant or unusual transactions. The preparation of the yearly accounts by DHCO mitigates this risk. |
With regard to identification of material misstatements in relation to fraud, we considered income recognition in line with FRS102, reviewed the appropriateness of the accounting policies selected and reviewed disclosures for completeness and accuracy. We also identified related parties and reviewed the completeness and accuracy of related party transactions. |
There are inherent limitations in our audit procedures described above. The more removed that laws and regulations are from financial transactions, the less likely it is that we would become aware of non compliance. Auditing standards also limit the audit procedures required to identify non-compliance with laws and regulations to enquiry of the directors and other management and the inspection of regulatory and legal correspondence, if any. |
Material misstatements that arise due to fraud can be harder to detect than those that arise from error as they may involve deliberate concealment or collusion. |

Use of our report |
This report is made solely to the company's members, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the company's members those matters we are required to state to them in a Report of the Auditors and for no other purpose.

2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
Basis of preparing the financial statements |
Significant judgements and estimates |
Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. |
There are not considered to be any critical judgements in applying the company's accounting policies. |
The company makes estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The resulting accounting estimates will, by definition, seldom equal the related actual results. The estimates and assumptions which have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets or liabilities within the next financial year are addressed below. |
(i) Goodwill valuation |
The valuation of goodwill involves a number of estimates including future profitability and considered of any factors which may lead to an impairment. |
Turnover |
Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, excluding discounts, rebates, value added tax and other sales taxes. |
Turnover is the amount derived from ordinary activities and is measured at fair value of the consideration received or receivable. Revenue is reduced for estimated customer returns, rebates and other similar allowances, and is stated net of VAT. |
Revenue from the provision of services as specified in the strategic report is recognised when all the following conditions are satisfied: |
- The amount of revenue can be measures reliably; |
- It is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the company; and |
- The costs incurred or to be incurred in respect of the transactions can be measured reliably. |
Goodwill |
Positive goodwill is capitalised, classified as an asset on the balance sheet and amortised over its useful life. |
The company had previously departed from the requirements of Companies Act 2006 to amortise goodwill. The directors have reconsidered this treatment in the current year and have decided to amortise the net book value over the coming 10 years. |
Tangible fixed assets |
Short leasehold improvements | - |
Fixtures and fittings | - |
Tangible assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Cost includes the original purchase price and costs directly attributable to bringing the asset to its working condition for its intended use. |

2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued |
Stocks |
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value, after making due allowance for obsolete and slow moving items. |
Financial instruments |
The company has chosen to adopt Sections 11 and 12 of FRS in respect of financial instruments. |
(i) Financial assets |
Trade and other debtors that are receivable within one year and do not constitute a financing transaction are recorded at the undiscounted amount expected to be received, net of impairment. Those that are receivable after more than one year or that constitute a financing transaction are recorded initially at fair value less transaction costs and subsequently at amortised cost, net of impairment. |
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash at bank and in hand, demand deposits with banks and bank overdrafts. In the statement of financial position, bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings or current liabilities. |
(ii) Financial liabilities |
Basic financial liabilities, including trade creditors and other creditors, bank loans, loans from fellow group companies that are classified as debt, are initially recognised at transaction price, unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. |
Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method. |
Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. Accounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. |
Taxation |
Taxation for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the Income Statement, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity. |
Current or deferred taxation assets and liabilities are not discounted. |
Current tax is recognised at the amount of tax payable using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the statement of financial position date. |
Deferred tax |
Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed at the statement of financial position date. |
Timing differences arise from the inclusion of income and expenses in tax assessments in periods different from those in which they are recognised in financial statements. Deferred tax is measured using tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the year end and that are expected to apply to the reversal of the timing difference. |
Unrelieved tax losses and other deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits. |
Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits |
The company operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the company's pension scheme are charged to profit or loss in the period to which they relate. |

Employee benefits |
Short term employee benefits, including holiday pay, are recognised as an expense in the statement of income and retained earnings in the period in which they are incurred. |
Provisions |
Provisions are recognised when the company has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made. Provisions are measured at the present value of the expenditures expected to be required to settle the obligation using a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the obligation. The increase in the provision due to passage of time is recognised as an interest expense. |
Interest bearing borrowings |
Interest-bearing borrowings are recognised initially at fair value less attributable transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, interest-bearing borrowings are stated at amortised cost with any difference being between the amount initially recognised and redemption value being recognised in the statement of comprehensive income over the the period of the borrowings, together with any interest and fees payable, using the effective interest method. |
Related parties |
For the purposes of these financial statements, a party is considered to be related to the company if: |
(i) the party has the ability, directly or indirectly, through one or more intermediaries, to control the company or exercise significant influence over the company in making financial and operating policy decisions, or has joint control over the operating company; |
(ii) the company and the party are subject to common control; |
(iii) the party is an associate of the company or a joint venture in which the company is a venturer; |
(iv) the party is a member of key management personnel of the company or company's parent, or a close family member of such an individual, or is an entity under the control, joint control or significant influence or such individuals; |
(v) the party is a close family member of a party referred to in (i) or is an entity under common control, joint control or significant influence of such individuals; |
(vi) the party is a post-employment benefit plan which is for the benefit of employees of the company or of any entity that is a related party of the company; or |
(vii) the party, or any member of a group of which is a part, provides key management personnel services to the company or is a parent. |
Close family members of an individual are those family members who may be expected to influence, or be influenced by, that individual in their dealings with the entity. |

Leased assets |
Assets that are held by the company under leases which transfer to the company substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are classified as being held under finance leases. Leases which do not transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to the company are classified as operating leases. |
Assets held under finance leases are initially recognised as assets of the company at their fair value at the inception of the lease or, if lower, at the present value of the minimum lease payments. The corresponding liability to the lessor is included in the statement of financial position as a finance lease obligation. Lease payments are apportioned between finance expenses and reduction of the lease obligation so as to achieve a constant rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability. Finance expenses are recognised immediately in profit or loss, unless they are directly attributable to qualifying assets, in which case they are capitalised in accordance with the company's policy on borrowing costs (see the accounting policy above). Contingent rentals are recognised as expenses in the period in which they are incurred. |
Operating lease payments are recognised as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term, except where another systematic basis is more representative of the time pattern in which economic benefits from the leased asset are consumed. |
In the event that lease incentives are received to enter into operating leases, such incentives are recognised as a liability. The aggregate benefit of incentives is recognised as a reduction of rental expense on a straight-line basis, except where another systematic basis is more representative of the time pattern in which economic benefits from the leased asset are consumed. |
3. | REVENUE |
The revenue and loss (2022 - profit) before taxation are attributable to the one principal activity of the company. |
