GROUP STRATEGIC REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023
SNG Group Limited is a leading supplier of spare parts for Jaguar and other classic car marques.
The Group presents a balanced and comprehensive review of the development and performance of the business during the year and the position at the year end. The review is consistent with the size and non-complex nature of the business in the context of the risks and uncertainties faced. The Group consider that the key performance indicators and those that communicate the financial performance and position of the group as a whole are turnover, profit margins, net current assets and net assets. During the year under review, the SNG Group’s turnover was £24,024,206 (2022: £25,398,730), whilst profit before tax was £2,209,053 (2022: £2,634,682). Whilst the Director is satisfied with the results during a year of significant economic challenge globally, the Group remains focused on driving sales growth and profitability. Changes have been made within the Group to rationalise and streamline our operation to ensure profitability and top line growth returns and exceeds 2023 performance. Net current assets of the Group decreased to £8,274,120 as at 31 December 2023 (2022: £8,797,800) and the Group's net assets decreased to £10,319,101 (2022: £10,811,138). The Group operates in a competitive market in which global, political and economic conditions, actions of competitors, foreign exchange and interest rates all have an impact on the performance of the Group.
The Group and Company are subject to the following principal risks and uncertainties.
Brexit Britain's exit from the EU continues to have an impact on the Group operations in the USA, Netherlands and France. The ability to flexibly purchase inventory and meet customer's demands on a timely basis will continue to be impacted as a result of any further amendments to the UK Governments negotiations. Competition There are a number of competitors in what is a highly fragmented market. However, the Group has a loyal but disparate customer base, so the risks associated with any particular customer concentration are automatically limited. The director continually monitors the competitive position to ensure the Group is best placed to serve its customers' needs. Working Capital Management The Group's operating model is based upon the ability to have inventory available to customers as and when they need it, meaning that there is a significant amount of gross working capital held in the business. However, this position is continually monitored and assessed by the director, and there continues to be sufficient liquidity available to the Group to ensure that it can be appropriately manage its operating obligations as they fall due.

GROUP STRATEGIC REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023
Financial risk management objectives and policies
The Group's principal financial instruments comprise bank loans and cash at bank. The main purpose of these financial instruments is to raise finance for the Group's operations. The Group has various other financial instruments such as trade debtors and trade creditors, which arise directly from its operations. The Group does not enter into derivative transactions. The main risks arising from the Group's financial instruments are foreign currency risk, interest rate risk, liquidity risk and credit risk. The board reviews and agrees policies for managing each risk and they are summarised below: Foreign currency risk The Group is exposed in its trading operations to the risk of changes in foreign currency exchange rates. The Group both buys and sells goods globally and the director considers that the overall risk is not significant. The main foreign currencies in which the Group operates are the Euro and the US Dollar. The Group has both US and European based subsidiaries which can affect the Sterling consolidated statement of financial position, as a result of exchange rate movements. Interest rate risk The Group's exposure to market risk for changes in interest rates relates primarily to the Group's bank loans. The Group does not hedge against interest rate fluctuations. Liquidity risk The Group's objective is to maintain a balance between continuity of funding and flexibility through the use of bank loans and its cash balances. Credit risk The Group trades with only recognised, creditworthy third parties. It is the Group's policy that all customers who wish to trade on credit terms are subject to vetting procedures. In addition, receivable balances are monitored on an ongoing basis with the result that the Group's exposure to bad debts is not significant.
The Group works to a high standard and all operations conform to the quality management system BS EN ISO 9001:2015.
The Group monitors its relationships with key customer and suppliers which continue to be strong.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF SNG GROUP LIMITED (FORMERLY S.N.G BARRATT GROUP LIMITED)
We have audited the financial statements of SNG Group Limited (Formerly S.N.G Barratt Group Limited) (the 'parent Company') and its subsidiaries (the 'Group') for the year ended 31 December 2023, which comprise the Consolidated profit and loss account, the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income, the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position, the Company Statement of Financial Position, the Consolidated Statement of Changes in Equity, the Company Statement of Changes in Equity 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 director's 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 director with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF SNG GROUP LIMITED (FORMERLY S.N.G BARRATT 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 director is 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 Director's 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 Director's 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 Director's report.

SNG GROUP LIMITED (FORMERLY S.N.G BARRATT GROUP LIMITED)
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF SNG GROUP LIMITED (FORMERLY S.N.G BARRATT 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:
The audit team obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory frameworks that are applicable to the Company and the Group and determined that the most significant are those that relate to the reporting framework (FRS102 and the Companies Act 2006), the relevant tax compliance regulations, employment law, Health and Safety Regulations and the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). We understood how the Company and the Group are complying with these frameworks by making enquiries of management and those responsible for legal and compliance procedures. We also reviewed board minutes to identify any recorded instances of irregularity or non compliance that might have a material impact on the financial statements. We assessed the susceptibility of the Company and Group's financial statements to material misstatement, including how fraud might occur by meeting with key management to understand where they considered there was susceptibility to fraud. Based on our understanding our procedures involved enquiries of management and those charged with governance, manual journal entry testing, cashbook reviews for large and unusual items and the challenge of significant accounting estimates used in preparing the financial statements.

SNG GROUP LIMITED (FORMERLY S.N.G BARRATT GROUP LIMITED)
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF SNG GROUP LIMITED (FORMERLY S.N.G BARRATT GROUP LIMITED) (CONTINUED)
Because of the inherent limitations of an audit, there is a risk that we will not detect all irregularities, including those leading to a material misstatement in the financial statements or non-compliance with regulation. This risk increases the more that compliance with a law or regulation is removed from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, as we will be less likely to become aware of instances of non-compliance. The risk is also greater regarding irregularities occurring due to fraud rather than error, as fraud involves intentional concealment, forgery, collusion, omission or misrepresentation.
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.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023
SNG Group Limited is a private company limited by shares and incorporated in England and Wales. Its registered office and principal place of business is located at The Heritage Building, Stourbridge Road, Bridgnorth, Shropshire, WV15 6AP.
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 judgment 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 Profit and loss account in these financial statements.
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 Statement of financial position, 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 profit and loss account 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.
The Company and Group have taken advantage of the following disclosure exemptions in preparing these financial statements permitted by the FRS 102 "The Financial reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland":
• The requirements of sections 7 Statement of Cash Flows • The requirements of sections 3 Financial Statement Presentation paragraph 3.17(d) This information is included in the consolidated financial statements of Olphine Holdings Limited as at 31 December 2023 and these financial statements may be obtained from Companies House or the registered office, which is located at The Heritage Building, Stourbridge Road, Bridgnorth, Shropshire, WV15 6AP.

2.Accounting policies (continued)
The Group adds to the carrying amount of an item of fixed assets the cost of replacing part of such an item when that cost is incurred, if the replacement part is expected to provide incremental future benefits to the Group. The carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognised. Repairs and maintenance are charged to profit or loss during the period in which they are incurred.
Depreciation is charged so as to allocate the cost of assets less their residual value over their estimated useful lives, using the straight-line method.
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.
Classic cars are not depreciated on the basis that their residual value is considered to be in excess of their cost.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023
2.Accounting policies (continued)
The Group has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 “Basic Financial Instruments” of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments.
The Group has elected to apply the recognition and measurement provisions of IFRS 9 Financial Instruments (as adopted by the UK Endorsement Board) with the disclosure requirements of Sections 11 and 12 and the other presentation requirements of FRS 102.
Financial instruments are recognised in the Group's Statement of financial position when the Group becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the financial statements, when there is a legally 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.
Basic financial assets
Basic financial assets, which include trade and other receivables, cash and bank balances, are initially measured at their transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at their amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any provision for impairment, unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest.
Discounting is omitted where the effect of discounting is immaterial. The Group's cash and cash equivalents, trade and most other receivables due with the operating cycle fall into this category of financial instruments.
Other financial assets
Other financial assets, which includes investments in equity instruments which are not classified as subsidiaries, associates or joint ventures, are initially measured at fair value, which is normally the recognised transaction price. Such assets are subsequently measured at fair value with the changes in fair value being recognised in the profit or loss. Where other financial assets are not publicly traded, hence their fair value cannot be measured reliably, they are measured at cost less impairment.
Impairment of financial assets
Financial assets are assessed for indicators of impairment at each reporting date.
Financial assets are impaired when events, subsequent to their initial recognition, indicate the estimated future cash flows derived from the financial asset(s) have been adversely impacted. The impairment loss will be the difference between the current carrying amount and the present value of the future cash flows at the asset(s) original effective interest rate.
If there is a favourable change in relation to the events surrounding the impairment loss then the impairment can be reviewed for possible reversal. The reversal will not cause the current carrying amount to exceed the original carrying amount had the impairment not been recognised. The impairment reversal is recognised in the profit or loss.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023
2.Accounting policies (continued)
Financial liabilities
Financial liabilities and equity instruments are classified according to the substance of the contractual arrangements entered into. An equity instruments any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the Group after the deduction of all its liabilities.
Basic financial liabilities, which include trade and other payables, bank loans, other loans and loans due to fellow group companies are initially measured at their transaction price after transaction costs. When this constitutes a financing transaction, whereby the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Discounting is omitted where the effect of discounting is immaterial.
Debt instruments are subsequently carried at their amortised cost using the effective interest rate method.
Trade payables are obligations to pay for goods and services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. Trade payables are classified as current liabilities if the payment is due within one year. If not, they represent non-current liabilities. Trade payables are initially recognised at their transaction price and subsequently are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Discounting is omitted where the effect of discounting is immaterial.
Other financial instruments
Derivatives, including forward exchange contracts, futures contracts and interest rate swaps, are not classified as basic financial instruments. These are initially recognised at fair value on the date the derivative contract is entered into, with costs being charged to the profit or loss. They are subsequently measured at fair value with changes in the profit or loss.
Debt instruments that do not meet the conditions as set out in FRS 102 paragraph 11.9 are subsequently measured at fair value through the profit or loss. This recognition and measurement would also apply to financial instruments where the performance is evaluated on a fair value basis as with a documented risk management or investment strategy.

SNG GROUP LIMITED (FORMERLY S.N.G BARRATT GROUP LIMITED)
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023
Valuation of Inventory Inventory is carried at the lower of cost or net realisable value, with cost being determined using actual cost at an individual item level. Net realisable value is calculated based on a formula which provides against the cost of an item depending on the last time that item (or that line of items) was purchased. This method of valuation can be impacted by consumer demand, availability of the inventory, the length of time that the inventory is held, and other external market factors. Management monitors the level of provision applied through this formula, which has been consistently applied year on year, and makes further adjustments where changes in the above factors would mean that it is appropriate to do so. The application of this estimation technique in applying the inventory provisioning policy represents a significant judgement in the preparation of the financial statements, as items may be ultimately sold at amounts which differ from their carrying value, and management continually reviews the appropriateness of this technique to ensure that it continues to represent their best estimate of net realisable value of inventory.
The whole of the turnover is attributable to the principal activity of the Group.
