Strategic Report
for the Year Ended 31 January 2024

The directors present their strategic report for the year ended 31 January 2024.

REVIEW OF BUSINESS
The results for the year ended 31 January 2024 are set out on page 8 . These results show a total fee income of £6,517,463 compared to £5,349,090 for 2023, resulting in an operating profit of £1,218,968 compared to £959,692 for 2023 and a net profit after taxation of £699,849 compared to £693,896 for 2023. Turnover has increased as the Home's service mix has continued to become more nursing orientated [during the year], occupancy has improved and fee rates have also benefitted from higher than normal inflationary increases.

These results represent encouraging progress and provide further validation of the strategy to offer an increased mix of higher complexity services, reflecting the strong market demand for these services. Nationwide pressures on staffing continue but the successful recruitment of non-European staff has helped to make up for the loss of European nationals. However, as a result of increased competition for staff and continued inflationary pressures, the Company has been subject to significant increases in wage rates. The measures that the Company has put in place over the past few years have continued to be applied and these have ensured that the business is as resilient as possible to such continuing challenges.

PRINCIPAL RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES
As last year it remains the case that staffing will continue to pose a challenge, but Moor Park House strives to ensure that it is the employer of choice by providing the best training and the best opportunities for career development. Whilst the UK base rate has recently been cut by 0.25%, UK government finances will continue to be adversely affected by high interest rates placing pressure on public spending. It is not yet known what the recent change of Government will mean for the funding of health and social care.

Post balance sheet, the Home has coped well with significant external factors such as rising inflation and high interest rates, through its continued strong occupancy and high fees. The business is confident of its viability with continued strong cash reserves and liquidity.

The care provider market is largely sheltered from much of this disruption, as demographic pressures continue to lead to increasing demand for care home places. The management continue to develop business with specialist referrers. Funding for the Company is not considered to be a risk, as Moor Park House Limited has a strong balance sheet with secure long term funding agreements and excellent relationships with its bankers.

Moor Park House Limited (Registered number: 03474999)

Report of the Directors
for the Year Ended 31 January 2024

The directors present their report with the financial statements of the company for the year ended 31 January 2024.

PRINCIPAL ACTIVITY
The principal activity of the company in the year under review was that of operating a specialised nursing home.

DIVIDENDS
A dividend of 28.333p per share was paid on 14 March 2023. The directors recommend that no final dividend be paid.

The total distribution of dividends for the year ended 31 January 2024 will be £170,000.

FUTURE DEVELOPMENTS
Subject to the external risks placed on the company, demand for care placements is expected to remain constant and the company anticipates capitalizing on this as a result of the quality of service being provided to the residents and the company's rapport with local authorities and NHS contracting teams.

DIRECTORS
The directors shown below have held office during the whole of the period from 1 February 2023 to the date of this report.

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Treasury operations and financial instruments
The company neither has nor need to use an overdraft facility, relying instead on effective management of financial resources. In addition to cash, the company's working capital comprises trade debtors and trade creditors that arise solely from its care home operations.

Liquidity risk
The company manages its cash and borrowing requirements in order to maximise interest income and minimise interest expense, whilst ensuring the company has sufficient liquid resources to meet the operating needs of the business.

Interest rate risk
The company is exposed to fair value interest rate risk on its fixed rate borrowings and cash flow interest rate risk on variable rate borrowings and finance loans. The company had no fixed rate borrowings for the year ended 31 January 2024.

Credit risk
Trade debtors are monitored on an ongoing basis and provision is made for doubtful debts where necessary.


Moor Park House Limited (Registered number: 03474999)

Report of the Directors
for the Year Ended 31 January 2024

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 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.

AUDITORS
During the year, Rushtons have expressed their willingness to continue as the auditor of the company.

ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD:





S Bonnard - Director


21 October 2024

Report of the Independent Auditors to the Members of
Moor Park House Limited

Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of Moor Park House Limited (the 'company') for the year ended 31 January 2024 which comprise the Income Statement, Other Comprehensive Income, Balance Sheet, Statement of Changes in Equity and 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 January 2024 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
Moor Park House 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.

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:

Identifying and assessing potential risks related to irregularities
In identifying and assessing the risks of material misstatement in respect of irregularities, including fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations, we considered the following:

- The nature of the industry and sector, control environment and business performance.
- Enquiring of management, including obtaining and reviewing supporting documentation, concerning
the company's policies and procedures relating to:
- Identifying, evaluating and complying with laws and regulations and whether they were aware of
any instances of non-compliance;
- Detecting and responding to the risks of fraud and whether they have knowledge of any actual,
suspected or alleged fraud;
- The internal controls established to mitigate risks related to fraud or non-compliance with laws and
regulations.
- Discussing among the engagement team regarding how and where fraud might occur in the financial
statements and any potential indicators of fraud, and;
- Obtaining an understanding of the legal and regulatory frameworks that the company operates in,
focusing on those laws and regulations that had a direct effect on the financial statements, such as
provisions of the UK Companies Act, pensions legislation and tax legislation or that had a fundamental
effect on the operations of the company, including the General Data Protection requirements,
Anti-bribery and corruption policies and Environmental laws and regulations pertaining to this industry.


Report of the Independent Auditors to the Members of
Moor Park House Limited


In addition to the above, our procedures to respond to risks identified included the following:

- Reviewing the financial statement disclosures and testing to supporting documentation to assess
compliance with provisions of relevant laws and regulations described as having a direct effect on the
financial statements;
- Enquiring of management concerning actual and potential litigation and claims;
- Performing analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected relationships that may indicate
risks of material misstatement due to fraud;
- Reading available minutes of meetings of those charged with governance; and
- Testing journal entries to identify unusual transactions.

We also communicated relevant identified laws and regulations and potential fraud risks to all engagement team members, and remained alert to any indications of fraud or non-compliance with laws and regulations throughout the audit.

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 Report of the Auditors.

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. 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.

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued
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.
