Strategic Report |
for the Year Ended 31 December 2023 |
The directors present their strategic report for the year ended 31 December 2023. |
REVIEW OF BUSINESS |
The results for the financial year are set out in the attached profit & loss account and the balance sheet sets out the financial position of the company as at 31 December 2023. |
On 6 January 2023 Mrs A F Kelly passed away after a long illness. She had acquired the business in 2008 and had overseen its commencement of trading, registration and ongoing trading including steering the company through the difficult COVID years. She had been assisted by her fellow directors, her daughters, who are very experienced in the business and who will continue to manage and develop the business. The period of illness, death and period of mourning had an impact upon operations whilst the directors and staff adjusted to the loss of a formidable influence. |
During the year ended 31 December 2023 interest rates continued to rise which has had a significant effect upon the profitability of the company as a result of the increase in borrowing costs.This presented some challenges to cash flow. |
Having regard to the comments made above the directors consider the results for the year to be satisfactory and they are confident that underlying profitability will improve in the forthcoming financial year as the company continues to maintain and consolidate it's position in a competitive market. |
Turnover increased during the year and gross margin achieved remained consistent. One of the key indicators used by the company is wage costs relative to turnover. This information is confidential as it is commercially sensitive but the percentage of wages excluding directors salaries to turnover has increased as compared to previous years as a result in increases in minimum wage and associated costs. |
As disclosed elsewhere in the accounts fixed assets are stated at cost. In May 2015 a valuation was carried out which confirmed that the open market value of the business is significantly in excess of the amount at which the assets are stated in the accounts. |
PRINCIPAL RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES |
The directors undertake periodic reviews of the operating risks facing the company. |
The company is exposed to certain financial risks and the directors have developed and evaluated strategies and programmes on internal controls to address the principal risks identified. Those identified are controlled as follows : |
Credit Risk : The company's principal assets comprise it's tangible and intangible fixed assets, bank balances and receivables. Provisions are made if required for any irrecoverable amounts and impairment provision made where there is an identifiable loss event which could give rise to a reduction in the recoverability of cash flows. |
Liquidity Risk : In order to maintain liquidity to ensure that there are sufficient funds available for ongoing operations and future developments the company uses a mixture of long and short term debt finance. |
Cash Flow Risk : The trading activities of the company are all within the United Kingdom and therefore it is not expected to be exposed to exchange rate fluctuations during the financial year, the directors are not concerned as to any impact that the failure to conclude a trade deal under what is commonly termed Brexit might have. |
Regular management accounts are prepared and reviewed by the directors and trends and variances are considered and investigated as to any impact upon the business and it's cash flow. |
Exposure to adverse movements in interest rates is considered by the directors a risk but they monitor results closely and assess options regularly such that they consider the risks, which also affect many small to medium size businesses, are manageable. |

Strategic Report |
for the Year Ended 31 December 2023 |
FINANCIAL KEY PERFORMANCE INDICATORS |
Given the straightforward nature of the business the directors are of the opinion that analysis using Key Performance Indicator's is not necessary for an understanding of the development, performance or position of the business. |
ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD: |
Amos Nursing Homes Limited (Registered number: 05074011) |

DIVIDENDS |
DIRECTORS |
The directors shown below have held office during the whole of the period from 1 January 2023 to the date of this report. |
Other changes in directors holding office are as follows: |
FIXED ASSETS |
Tangible fixed assets included within the accounts were revalued in May 2015 at an amount substantially more than the cost stated in the accounts. No policy of revaluation has been adopted and more information is available in the notes to the 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). 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 she ought to have taken as a director in order to make herself aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the company's auditors are aware of that information. |
Amos Nursing Homes Limited (Registered number: 05074011) |
Report of the Directors |
for the Year Ended 31 December 2023 |
AUDITORS |
Under section 487(2) of the Companies Act 2006, DHB Accountants Limited will be deemed to have been reappointed as auditors 28 days after these financial statements were sent to members or 28 days after the latest date prescribed for filing the financial statements with the registrar, whichever is earlier. |
ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD: |
Report of the Independent Auditors to the Members of |
Amos Nursing Homes Limited |
Opinion |
We have audited the financial statements of Amos Nursing Homes Limited (the 'company') for the year ended 31 December 2023 which comprise the Statement of Income and Retained Earnings, Balance Sheet, Cash Flow Statement and Notes to the Cash Flow Statement, 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 December 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 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 |
Amos Nursing Homes 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. |
Responsibilities of directors |
As explained more fully in the Statement of Directors' Responsibilities set out on page four, 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 |
Amos Nursing Homes 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: |
As part of planning our audit, we determined materiality and assessed the risks of material misstatement in the financial statement's, including how fraud may occur by enquiring of management of its own consideration of fraud. In particular we looked at where management made subjective judgements, for example in respect of significant accounting estimates that involved making assumptions and considering future events that are inherently uncertain. We also considered potential financial or other pressures , opportunity and motivations for fraud. As part of this discussion we identified the internal controls to mitigate risks related to fraud or non-compliance with laws and regulations and how management monitor these processes. Appropriate procedures included the review and testing of manual journals and key estimates and judgements made by management. |
We gained an understanding of the legal and regulatory frameworks that are applicable to the company and the industry in which it operates, drawing on our wide experience, and considered whether there had been any acts by the company that may have been contrary to these laws and regulations, including fraud. We focused on laws and regulations that could give rise to material misstatement in the financial statements, including, but not limited to, the Companies Act 2006, UK tax legislation and relevant local laws and regulations. We made enquiries of management with regards to compliance with the above laws and regulations and corroborated where necessary to other necessary evidence. |
Our audit tests included agreeing the financial statements disclosures to underlying supporting documentation and enquiries with management. |
We did not identify any key audit matters relating to irregularities, including fraud. As in all of our audits, we also addressed the risk of management override on internal controls including testing journals and evaluation of whether there was any evidence of bias by management that represented a risk of material misstatement due to fraud. |
Our audit procedures were designed to respond to risks of material misstatement in the financial statements, recognizing that the risk of not detecting a material misstatement due to fraud is higher than the risk of not detecting one resulting from error, as fraud may involve deliberate concealment, for example, forgery, misrepresentation or through collusion. There are inherent limitations in the audit procedures performed and the further removed non-compliance with laws and regulations is from events and transactions reflected in the financial statement's, the less likely we are to become aware of it. |
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 Report of the Auditors. |
Report of the Independent Auditors to the Members of |

1. | STATUTORY INFORMATION |
Amos Nursing Homes Limited is a |
2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
Basis of preparing the financial statements |
These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland" and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. |
These financial statements are presented in Pounds Sterling which is the functional operating currency of the company. |
The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis and make no allowance for costs or additional liabilities that might fall due if this were found to be inappropriate. Having regard to available resources and expected trading results and with the continued support of the company bankers the directors are of the view that the going concern concept is entirely appropriate. |
Significant judgements and estimates |
In the application of the company's accounting policies, the directors are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily available from other sources. The estimates and assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates. |
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions in accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised. |
The following judgements and estimates have had the most significant effect upon amounts recognised in the financial statements: |
Useful Economic lives of tangible assets |
The actual useful lives of tangible fixed assets assessed regularly and may vary depending upon a number of factors such as technical innovation and maintenance programmes. |
Turnover |
Turnover represents the invoiced value of services provided to care users. The activities of the company are exempt from value added tax. Revenue is recognised to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the company and the revenue can be reliably measured. |
Goodwill |
Intangible assets |
Intangible assets are initially measured at cost. After initial recognition, intangible assets are measured at cost less any accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses. |
Amos Nursing Homes Limited (Registered number: 05074011) |
Notes to the Financial Statements - continued |
for the Year Ended 31 December 2023 |
2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued |
Tangible fixed assets |
Tangible fixed assets are stated at cost or valuation, net of depreciation and any provision, if required, for impairment. Where depreciation charges increase as a result of revaluation an amount equal to the increase is transferred from the revaluation reserve to the profit and loss reserve as a movement on reserves. |
Depreciation is provided on all tangible fixed assets at rates calculated to write off the cost or valuation of each asset over it's expected useful life, as follows : |
Long Leasehold property Straight Line - 100 years |
Plant & Machinery Straight Line - 50 years |
Fixtures & Fittings Straight Line - 25 Years |
Stocks |
Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value, after making due allowance for obsolete and slow moving items. |
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 balance sheet date. |
Deferred tax |
Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed at the balance sheet 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. |
Hire purchase and leasing commitments |
Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to profit or loss on a straight line basis over the period of the lease. |
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. |
Operating leases |
Rentals under operating leases are charged to the profit & loss account on a straight line basis over the terms of the leases. |

Long Leasehold property includes an interest in the land based upon a lease of 125 years at a peppercorn rent from January 2007. |
The business was revalued for loan security purposes in May 2015 by Andrew Forbes, Chartered Valuation Surveyors, in accordance with the RICS Valuation - Professional Standards January 2014 (Red Book) guidelines. They were of the opinion that the market value of the long leasehold interest in the care home on the assumption it is a fully operational and equipped entity and having regard to trading potential, free from encumbrance and as described in their report can be fairly stated at £11,150,000. The surplus arising on revaluation is not reflected in the accounts nor is any associated tax liability which would arise on the surplus over and above the amount at which fixed assets are stated in the accounts. |
