GROUP STRATEGIC REPORT
FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 24 DECEMBER 2023
The directors present their report and financial statements for the period ended 24 December 2023.
Competitive Socialising is the London and New York-based parent company of Swingers, the high-end crazy golf entertainment experience. The principal activity of the group remains that of experiential leisure in the hospitality market. The group remains focused on developing in new geographies and offering innovative competitive experiences combined with best-in-class food, cocktails and service.
In December 2022, Swingers completed the lease for its flagship Las Vegas venue, opening Autumn 2024 at Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino. In May 2023, Swingers agreed to open a new location on Bluewaters Island, Dubai, UAE, which will be Swingers’ first franchise, in partnership with Daud Investments. It is scheduled to open in Autumn 2024. In May 2023, Competitive Socialising completed its Series-C $52m growth capital raise to fund its continued expansion. This investment was part funded by Jampurchaseco Limited, who followed on their Series-B investment of 2018. They were joined in the round by a number of third party institutional investors. The board continues to manage the group’s cost base despite significant macroeconomic cost pressures but is well placed for growth over the coming years. The key financial highlights are as follows:

GROUP STRATEGIC REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 24 DECEMBER 2023
Financial instruments
The Group's principal financial instruments comprise bank balances, rent deposits, bank loans, letters of credit, trade creditors and other creditors. The main purpose of these instruments is to raise funds for the Group's operations and to finance the Group's operations. Due to the nature of the financial instruments used by the Group there is no exposure to price risk. The Group's approach to managing other risks applicable to the financial instruments concerned is shown below. Liquidity risk In respect of bank balances the liquidity risk is managed by maintaining a balance between the continuity of funding and the flexibility through the use of bank loans. The Group does not make use of money market facilities. Trade creditor liquidity risk is managed by ensuring sufficient funds are available to meet amounts due. Competition The market in which the Group operates is becoming increasingly competitive through the introduction of new entrants as well as the expansion of established players. Trading demonstrates that the Group maintains a strong position, due to factors including the location of the sites, the brand recognition and the quality of the experience provided. These factors are expected to ensure continued growth and profitability.
The Group is committed to providing equality of opportunity to all employees without discrimination and applied fair and equitable employment policies which ensure entry and progression within the Group. Appointments are determined solely by application of job criteria and competency.
The Group will seek to minimise adverse impacts on the environment from its activities where possible, whilst continuing to address health, safety and economic issues. The group has complied with all applicable legislation and regulations.

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.

DIRECTORS' REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 24 DECEMBER 2023
The Streamline Energy and Carbon Report provides an overview of the energy and carbon emissions for UK operational control and the mechanisms being put in place to manage these impacts.
The UK Government’s 2018 Regulations launched the Streamlined Energy and Carbon Report (SECR) which required all large UK companies to report their carbon emissions and energy usage on an annual basis. The regulations took effect from 1 April 2019 and cover financial reporting years starting after this date. This Company falls within scope of the SECR reporting obligations as a ‘large’ organization and is now required toreport the following: • UK energy use (to include as a minimum purchased electricity, gas and transport) • Associated greenhouse gas emissions • At least one intensity ratio • Previous year’s figures for energy use and GHG emissions • Information about energy efficiency action taken in the organisation’s financial year • Methodologies used in calculations of disclosures. As this is the first year we have qualified as a large group we do not have detailed figures regarding our greenhouse gas emissions within the year, however this is something we are now tracking and will report figures within the next set of accounts.

COMPETITIVE SOCIALISING GROUP LIMITED
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF COMPETITIVE SOCIALISING GROUP LIMITED
We have audited the financial statements of Competitive Socialising Group Limited (the 'parent Company') and its subsidiaries (the 'Group') for the period ended 24 December 2023, which comprise the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income, the Consolidated Balance Sheet, the Company Balance Sheet, the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows, 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 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 COMPETITIVE SOCIALISING 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 period 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.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF COMPETITIVE SOCIALISING 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:
Explanation as to what extent the audit was considered capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud The objectives of our audit are to identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements due to fraud or error; to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the assessed risks of material misstatement due to fraud or error; and to respond appropriately to those risks. Owing to the inherent limitations of an audit, there is an unavoidable risk that material misstatements in the financial statements may not be detected, even though the audit is properly planned and performed in accordance with the ISAs (UK). In identifying and assessing risks of material misstatement in respect of irregularities, including fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations, our procedures included the following: • We obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory frameworks applicable to the Group and the industry in which it operates. We determined that the following laws and regulations were most significant: FRS 102 and the Companies Act 2006. • We obtained an understanding of how the Group is complying with those legal and regulatory frameworks by making enquiries of management. • We challenged assumptions and judgments made by management in its significant accounting estimates. We did not identify any key audit matters relating to irregularities, including fraud.
A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council's website at: www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our Auditors' Report.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 24 DECEMBER 2023
Competitive Socialising Group Limited is a private company limited by shares, and is incorporated in England and Wales (company number: 13420604).
Its registered office is 101 New Cavendish Street, First Floor South, London, United Kingdom, W1W 6XH. The Company's principal activity is that of a holding company.
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 Statement of Comprehensive Income 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 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 Comprehensive Income 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 01 May 2015.
The Group's business activities, together with the factors likely to affect its future development and performance are set out in the strategic report.
Having reviewed future forecasts, allowing for reasonable effects of current and future market conditions, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue operational existence for at least 12 months from the date of approval of the financial statements. Accordingly, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the annual financial statements.

Goodwill
Other intangible assets
All intangible assets are considered to have a finite useful life. If a reliable estimate of the useful life cannot be made, the useful life shall not exceed ten years.
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.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 24 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 Balance Sheet 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.
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 PERIOD ENDED 24 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.
Derecognition of financial instruments
Derecognition of financial assets
Financial assets are derecognised when their contractual right to future cash flow expire, or are settled, or when the Group transfers the asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to another party. If significant risks and rewards of ownership are retained after the transfer to another party, then the Group will continue to recognise the value of the portion of the risks and rewards retained.
Derecognition of financial liabilities
Financial liabilities are derecognised when the Group's contractual obligations expire or are discharged or cancelled.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revisions affect only that period, or in the period of the revisions and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.
