GROUP STRATEGIC REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 29 OCTOBER 2023
The directors present their strategic report on the Group for the year ended 29 October 2023.
The results for the Group are set out in the consolidated profit and loss account on page 10 and they show a profit before tax of £2,741,000 (2022: £2,476,000) for the year and turnover of £14,145,000 (2022: £13,512,000).
We are delighted that both Pinelodge Holidays’ parks retained the Visit England 5 Star Holiday Park standard and were also awarded the Gold award. The parks also retained the prestigious Green Key accreditation for our environmental commitments. Both parks continue to receive excellent Trip Advisor reviews and Feefo scores. Darwin Forest’s high Feefo scores alongside its low customer complaints ratio was also recognised by our booking agent Hoseasons at their recent Diamond Awards who named Darwin Forest the ‘Best in Britain’ in the large parks category. At Pinelodge Holidays both the level of business and the year-end financial position were satisfactory and the directors expect that the present level of activity will be sustained for the foreseeable future. The two lodge holiday parks, Darwin Forest and Sandybrook, both award winning resorts, have each performed well in terms of occupancy, revenue and profits. Pinelog continues to actively seek to recruit skilled and semi-skilled trades to supplement its existing team in order to increase production capacity in its new home. This will allow it to both cater for the needs of external customers and also provide updated replacement Pinelodges for its sister company’s holiday parks.
The management of the business and the execution of the Group's strategies are subject to a number of risks. The key business risks affecting the Group in the post COVID-19 pandemic world are the Cost of Living Crisis as well as the appetite for consumers to take UK vacations. Price inflation has been dramatic for certain commodities, and we have been subjected to large increases in energy costs.
General UK economic conditions are always of concern as they impact upon the markets for timber leisure buildings, be they for use as second homes or short term holiday destinations. The long-term effect of increases in the National Living Wage continues to be a concern to the businesses.

DIRECTORS' REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 29 OCTOBER 2023
The directors present their report and the financial statements for the year ended 29 October 2023.
Pinelog Limited's principal activity is the design, manufacture, installation and sale of timber leisure buildings including a proportion for a fellow group company. Pinelodge Holidays Limited owns and operates two holiday letting parks with Pinelodges which are held as fixed assets. The two holiday letting parks are Darwin Forest and Sandybrook. In order to fund the capital requirements vital for expansion of the holiday letting business, the directors have pursued a policy under which, from time to time, a proportion of the holiday letting Pinelodges are sold as investments to private owners who then employ Pinelodge Holidays Limited to let and operate the Pinelodges on their behalf. On occasions private owners pay Pinelodge Holidays Limited to upgrade their Pinelodges. Profits have been achieved on sales of Pinelodges, some which which had previously been held as fixed assets, and on the resale of Pinelodges taken as part exchange. When opportunities arise, and it is considered expedient to do so, Pinelodge Holidays Limited will buy lodges back from private owners.
The profit for the year, before tax, amounted to £2,741,000 (2022: £2,476,000).
The profit for the year, after taxation, amounted to £2,024,000 (2022: £1,481,000).
The parent Company paid interim dividends in the year totalling £655,000 (2022: £875,000). No final dividend was paid in respect of the year ended 29 October 2023 (2022: £nil).
The directors who served during the year were:
The parent Company is wholly owned by the Grayson family either directly or through graysonfavour limited, a company wholly owned by the Grayson family.

DIRECTORS' REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 29 OCTOBER 2023
The directors are responsible for preparing the Group strategic report, the Directors' report and the consolidated 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 applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice), 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 the Group and of the profit or loss of the Group for that period.
In preparing these financial statements, the directors are required to:
∙select suitable accounting policies for the Group's financial statements and then apply them consistently;
∙make judgements and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
∙state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;
∙prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the Group 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 the Group and to 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 the Group and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
Employees are made aware of the financial and economic factors affecting the achievements of the Group companies for which they work and the way in which their personal contributions are of fundamental importance to the further success of the business.
Full and fair consideration is given to the employment of disabled persons and the Group has made, and will continue to make, every effort to retain and assist any individuals disabled in the course of their employment and to help with their rehabilitation.

PINELOG GROUP LIMITED
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF PINELOG GROUP LIMITED
We have audited the financial statements of Pinelog Group Limited (the 'parent Company') and its subsidiaries (the 'Group') for the year ended 29 October 2023, which comprise the Consolidated Statement of income and retained earnings, the Consolidated and Company Balance sheets, the Consolidated Statement of cash flows and the related notes, 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).
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 Group 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.
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 Group's or the parent 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 PINELOG GROUP LIMITED (CONTINUED)
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.
In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:
∙the information given in the Group 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 Group strategic report and the Directors' report have been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.
In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the Group and the parent Company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Group strategic report or the Directors' report.

PINELOG GROUP LIMITED
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF PINELOG GROUP LIMITED (CONTINUED)
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 Group 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:
Our approach to identifying and assessing the risks of material misstatement in respect of irregularities, including fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations, was as follows:
∙the engagement team collectively had the appropriate competence, capabilities and skills to identify and recognise non-compliance with applicable laws and regulations; and
∙through discussions with the directors and other management and from our commercial knowledge, we identified the laws and regulations applicable to the Company.
We assessed the susceptibility of the Company’s financial statements to material misstatement, including obtaining an understanding of how fraud might occur, by:
∙making enquiries of management as to where they considered there was susceptibility to fraud, their knowledge of actual, suspected and alleged fraud; an
∙considering the internal controls in place to mitigate risks of fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations.
To address the risk of fraud through management bias and override of controls, we:
∙performed analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected relationships;
∙reviewed the general ledger entries during the year to identify unusual transactions;
∙assessed whether judgements and assumptions made in determining the accounting estimates were indicative of potential bias; and
∙investigated the rationale behind significant or unusual transactions.
In response to the risk of irregularities and non-compliance with laws and regulations, we designed procedures which included, but were not limited to:
∙agreeing financial statement disclosures to underlying supporting documentation;
∙reading the minutes of meetings of those charged with governance;
∙enquiring of management as to actual and potential litigation and claims;
∙considering relationships with HMRC and other relevant regulators; and
∙reviewing legal and professional costs to identify any indicators of litigation.
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 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.
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.
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 an Auditors' report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the Company and the Company's members, as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

Pinelog Group Limited is a company limited by shares, incorporated in England and Wales. Its registered office is Darwin Forest Country Park, Darley Moor, Two Dales, Matlock, Derbyshire, DE4 5PL. Itsregistered number is 04420286.
2.Accounting policies
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention unless otherwise specified within these accounting policies and in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland and the Companies Act 2006.
The preparation of financial statements in compliance with FRS 102 requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires Group management to exercise judgement in applying the Group's accounting policies (see note 3).
The Company has taken advantage of the exemption allowed under section 408 of the Companies Act 2006 and has not presented its own Statement of income and retained earnings in these financial statements.
The financial statements are presented in Pounds Sterling and have been rounded to thousands.
The following principal accounting policies have been applied:
The consolidated financial statements present the results of the Company and its own subsidiaries ("the Group") as if they form a single entity. Intercompany transactions and balances between group companies are therefore eliminated in full.
The consolidated financial statements incorporate the results of business combinations using the purchase method. In the Balance sheet, the acquiree's identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities are initially recognised at their fair values at the acquisition date. The results of acquired operations are included in the Consolidated statement of income and retained earnings from the date on which control is obtained. They are deconsolidated from the date control ceases. In accordance with the transitional exemption available in FRS 102, the Group has chosen not to retrospectively apply the standard to business combinations that occurred before the date of transition to FRS 102, being 03 November 2014.

2.Accounting policies (continued)
For Pinelog Limited, turnover on long-term contracts represents total costs incurred (including an appropriate proportion of production overheads), plus attributable profits. A prudent estimate of the profit attributable to work completed is recognised once the outcome of the contracts can be determined with reasonable certainty. Provision is made for losses on long-term contracts as soon as such losses become apparent.

2.Accounting policies (continued)
Land is not depreciated. Depreciation on other assets is charged so as to allocate the cost of assets less their residual value over their estimated useful lives, using the straight-line method (except where stated).
Depreciation is provided on the following basis:
The assets' residual values, useful lives and depreciation methods are reviewed, and adjusted prospectively if appropriate, or if there is an indication of a significant change since the last reporting date.
Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing the proceeds with the carrying amount and are recognised in profit or loss.
Where fixed assets are acquired second hand, the remaining useful economic life is assessed for each asset and the cost less estimated residual value is written off over this period.
Leasehold land and buildings are amortised over 50 years or, if shorter, the period of the lease. Freehold land and assets in the course of construction are not depreciated. Profit or loss on sale of fixed assets includes amounts realised on the sale of Pinelodges that had been previously held for rental.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 29 OCTOBER 2023
The useful economic lives and residual values of tangible fixed assets, which have been calculated by the directors based on their experience of the industry. At each reporting date, assets held as stock are assessed for impairment. If stock is impaired, the carrying amount is reduced to its selling price less costs to complete and sell. The impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss. Turnover from construction contracts is recognised so as to ensure that an appropriate level of profit is recognised based on the stage of completion of the contract. Profit is only recognised once a final forecast profit on a contract can be reliably estimated. Where a contract is expected to be loss making, that loss is recognised in full. Key assumptions are made regarding the stage of completion, future costs to complete and the collectability of billings on construction contracts.
