CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024
- 2 -

The annual statement provides full details of the Company’s activities for the financial year ending 31st March 2024 and key points are highlighted below. It also provides the opportunity to update lessees on the matters to which the Board of Chesterfield House Management Limited has been attending in the last year.

Accounts and Overall Financial Position

The accounts show the potential tax liability on Company assets, as required under the Financial Reporting Standard FRS 102. The accounts for the year ending March 2024 show on page 9 that there is an operating profit of £128,871 compared to an operating loss of £55,307 for the previous year. Page 10 shows that there has been an increase in the value of the investment property and the cash held compared to the previous year. The Company’s nett assets, reported on page 10, show a small decrease from £7,921,321 in 2023 to £7,685,408 in 2024 due to the increase in liabilities, associated principally with the refurbishment fund, creditors, rent deposits and the energy levy credit.

Service Charge and Refurbishment Fund

The service charge demand from the lessees decreased from £1,137,528 in 2022 / 2023 to £1,000,428. The annual contribution to the refurbishment fund remained at £200k based on an assessment of future works. As discussed in the previous year, an energy levy was raised to cover the substantial rise in energy costs on the basis that any unspent funds would be returned to lessees.

Administrative expenses

The total administrative expenses (i.e. service charge costs and additional costs incurred by the Company) decreased from £1,477,564 in 2022 / 2023 to £1,317,593 in 2023 / 2024.

Reserves

The Company’s nett current assets are made up of the income received from the Company flats and the car park, the refurbishment fund and the premia received for the lease extensions. The value of the Company’s nett current assets was £332,870 on 31 March 2023 and £486,953 on 31 March 2024 (see page 10). Page 18 shows that the rental income from the garage and the flats and the income from lease extensions were higher than those received in the previous year, with the total increase from £275,179 to £435,186.

Major Works

There is a rolling maintenance programme and the works undertaken in 2023 / 2024 included the replacement of the lift in the West block, the repair of leaks in the roof and general building repairs. This was wholly funded from Company reserves. It is intended to replace all of the passenger lifts in the next few years, with work on the lift in the North block commencing shortly.

Conclusion

The focus in the year 2023 / 2024 has been on the maintenance and upgrading of the buildings which are almost ninety years old and require continual attention. The company is in a good financial position, enabling it to progress the rolling programme of refurbishment and improvement works.

 

As always, the Board will continue to maintain the high standards expected of Chesterfield House by its residents. I would like to thank the Company's directors, namely Sir Colin Corness, Mrs. P. Gold, Mr. G. Hutchings, Mr. D. Man, and Mr. V. Vareldzis, as well as the General Manager, Ms. A. Blixt, and the staff of Chesterfield House for their service to Chesterfield House.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
TO THE MEMBERS OF CHESTERFIELD HOUSE MANAGEMENT LIMITED

Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of Chesterfield House Management Limited (the 'company') for the year ended 31 March 2024 which comprise the statement of comprehensive income, the statement of financial position, the statement of changes in equity and notes to the financial statements, including 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:

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 Auditor's 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 other information comprises the information included in the annual report other than the financial statements and our auditor's 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.

Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006

In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of our audit:

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 directors' report. We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:

 

Responsibilities of directors

As explained more fully in the directors' responsibilities statement, 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 is 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.

Auditor's 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 an auditor's 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 financial statements.

CHESTERFIELD HOUSE MANAGEMENT LIMITED
INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT (CONTINUED)
TO THE MEMBERS OF CHESTERFIELD HOUSE MANAGEMENT LIMITED
- 7 -

Our approach was as follows:

 

 

Based on this understanding we designed our audit procedures to identify non-compliance with such laws and regulations. Where the risk was considered to be higher, we performed audit procedures to address each identified fraud risk. These procedures included: testing manual journals; reviewing the financial statement disclosures and testing to supporting documentation; performing analytical procedures; and enquiring of management, and were designed to provide reasonable assurance that the financial statements were free from fraud or error.

 

Owing to the inherent limitations of an audit, there is an unavoidable risk that we may not have detected some material misstatements in the financial statements, even though we have properly planned and performed our audit in accordance with auditing standards. For example, the further removed non-compliance with laws and regulations (irregularities) is from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, the less likely the inherently limited procedures required by auditing standards would identify it. The risk is also greater regarding irregularities occurring due to fraud rather than error, as fraud involves intentional concealment, forgery, collusion, omission or misrepresentation. We are not responsible for preventing non-compliance and cannot be expected to detect non-compliance with all laws and regulations.

 

A further description of our responsibilities is available on the Financial Reporting Council’s website at: https://www.frc.org.uk/Our-Work/Audit/Audit-and-assurance/Standards-and-guidance/Standards-and-guidance-for auditors/Auditors-responsibilities-for-audit/Description-of-auditors-responsibilities-for-audit.aspx.

This description forms part of our auditor’s report.

Accounting policies
Company information

Chesterfield House Management Limited is a private company limited by shares incorporated in England and Wales. The registered office is Chesterfield House, South Audley Street, London, W1K 1HA. The principal activity of the company continues to be that of the management of the property of Chesterfield House for the benefit of its residents.

1.1
Accounting convention

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with FRS 102 “The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland” (“FRS 102”) and the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 as applicable to companies subject to the small companies regime. The disclosure requirements of section 1A of FRS 102 have been applied other than where additional disclosure is required to show a true and fair view.

The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the company. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, modified to include investment properties and certain financial instruments at fair value. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.

1.2
Turnover
Turnover represents amounts receivable for rents, interest and service charges within the United Kingdom.

Revenue from rental properties are recognised as they are invoiced. Rentals are generally invoiced monthly in advance of the month of occupancy, unless alternate arrangements are agreed. The lengths of the leases vary by property.

Revenue from service charges is recognised by the period to which those charges relate. Service charges are raised biannually in advance, in two six month tranches.

1.3
Investment property

Investment property, which is property held to earn rentals and/or for capital appreciation, is initially recognised at cost, which includes the purchase cost and any directly attributable expenditure. Subsequently it is measured at fair value at the reporting end date. Changes in fair value are recognised in profit or loss.

1.4
Cash and cash equivalents

Cash at bank and in hand are basic financial assets and include cash in hand and deposits held at call with banks.

1.5
Financial instruments

The company has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 ‘Basic Financial Instruments’ of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments.

 

Financial instruments are recognised in the company's statement of financial position when the company 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 debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method 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. Financial assets classified as receivable within one year are not amortised.

Classification of financial liabilities

Financial liabilities and equity instruments are classified according to the substance of the contractual arrangements entered into. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the company after deducting all of its liabilities.

Basic financial liabilities

Basic financial liabilities, including creditors are classified as debt, are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortised.

 

Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method.

 

Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. Amounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade creditors are recognised initially at transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

1.6
Equity instruments

Equity instruments issued by the company are recorded at the proceeds received, net of transaction costs. Dividends payable on equity instruments are recognised as liabilities once they are no longer at the discretion of the company.

1.7
Taxation

The tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax.

CHESTERFIELD HOUSE MANAGEMENT LIMITED
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024

Accounting policies
(Continued)
- 14 -
Current tax

The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from net profit as reported in the income statement because it excludes items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and it further excludes items that are never taxable or deductible. The company’s liability for current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting end date.

Deferred tax

Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all timing differences and deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits. Such assets and liabilities are not recognised if the timing difference arises from goodwill or from the initial recognition of other assets and liabilities in a transaction that affects neither the tax profit nor the accounting profit.

 

The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each reporting end date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered. Deferred tax is calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period when the liability is settled or the asset is realised. Deferred tax is charged or credited in the income statement, except when it relates to items charged or credited directly to equity, in which case the deferred tax is also dealt with in equity. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when the company has a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets and liabilities and the deferred tax assets and liabilities relate to taxes levied by the same tax authority.

1.8
Employee benefits

The costs of short-term employee benefits are recognised as a liability and an expense, unless those costs are required to be recognised as part of the cost of stock or fixed assets.

 

The cost of any unused holiday entitlement is recognised in the period in which the employee’s services are received.

 

Termination benefits are recognised immediately as an expense when the company is demonstrably committed to terminate the employment of an employee or to provide termination benefits.

1.9
Foreign exchange

Transactions in currencies other than pounds sterling are recorded at the rates of exchange prevailing at the dates of the transactions. At each reporting end date, monetary assets and liabilities that are denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing on the reporting end date. Gains and losses arising on translation in the period are included in profit or loss.

1.10

Service charge income and expenditure

The income and expenditure recognised in the accounts encompasses all transactions entered into by the company in its own right and also on behalf of the leaseholders. Any short term surpluses in relation to annual service charge income and expenditure, along with any funds held on behalf of the leaseholders for future refurbishment expenditure, are recognised as liabilities within other creditors.

Judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty

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 apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

 

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 where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods.

 

In the opinion of the directors there are no significant judgements or areas of estimation uncertainty.

Investment properties represent the Company's interest in the long leasehold of five flats and two other structures at the property known as Chesterfield House. The investment properties undergo regular external valuation with review undertaken, by the board of directors, of the carrying value in the intervening periods. No depreciation is provided in respect of these properties.

 

The fair value of the investment properties at 31 March 2024 has been arrived at on the basis of a valuation carried out by the directors. These valuations were made on an open market value basis by reference to market evidence of transaction prices for similar properties.

Fair value reserve
