DAEDALUS PARTNERS LLP (REGISTERED NUMBER: OC365551)

REPORT OF THE MEMBERS
for the Year Ended 31 DECEMBER 2023

The members present their report with the financial statements of the LLP for the year ended 31 December 2023.

PRINCIPAL ACTIVITY
The principal activity of the LLP in the year under review was that of the provision of investment products.

The Partnership is regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (with firm reference (564221) and has permissions to act as a small authorised UK alternative investment fund manager ("AIFM").

DESIGNATED MEMBERS
The designated members during the year under review were:

Growthdeck DM1 Limited
Growthdeck DM2 Limited

RESULTS FOR THE YEAR AND ALLOCATION TO MEMBERS
The loss for the year before members' remuneration and profit shares was £6,628 (2022 - £2,625 profit).

MEMBERS' INTERESTS
Members are permitted to make drawings in anticipation of profits which will be allocated to them. The amount of such drawings is set at the beginning of each financial year, taking into account the anticipated cash needs of the LLP.

New members are required to subscribe a minimum level of capital and in subsequent years members are invited to subscribe for further capital, the amounts of which is determined by the performance and seniority of those members. On retirement, capital is repaid to members.


PRINCIPAL RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES
As identified in the Partnerships internal capital adequacy assessment procedure ("ICAAP") the principal risks to the business are operational risk, business & strategic risk , liquidity risk and regulatory risk.

Operational Risk
Operational risk is the risk that failure of people, processes, systems or external events result in financial loss, damage to the reputation of the Partnership, or adverse regulatory intervention or fines. The Partnership has exposure to a number of operational risks which would threaten the Partnership's ability to meet its business objectives such as business disruption & system failure, cyber-attack, outsourced service failure, financial crime, proves failure, investment & fund management and financial and tax management. Operational risks are managed in accordance with the Partnership's operational risk standards, the risks and controls are assessed, and the Partnership considers residual risk against its risk appetite.

Business & Strategic Risk
Business risk is the risk caused by uncertainty in the macroeconomic environment, impacting the firm's ability to carry out its business plan or desired strategy. The firm adopts conservative assumptions in all its business and strategic planning. Changes to the wider business environment and business and strategic risks are monitored by the designated members.

Liquidity risk
This is the risk that Daedalus Partners LLP either does not have available sufficient financial resources to enable it to meet its obligations as they fall due or can only secure such resources at excessive cost. The Partnership maintains liquid resources which are adequate, both as to the amount and quality, to ensure there is no significant risk that we are unable to meet out liabilities as they fall due. We are required to have robust strategies, policies and processes and systems to enable us to identify, manage and monitor liquidity risk over and appropriate set of time horizons to ensure that we maintain adequate levels of liquidity buffers. The liquidity risk tolerance has been approved by the designated members and is reviewed on an annual basis.

Regulatory Risk
Regulatory risk is defined as failure to meet the regulatory obligations and standards required by the regulator. This includes corporate culture, ethical standards and fiduciary duties. The Partnership's compliance officer is responsible for monitoring and ensuring compliance with the relevant regulations with the support of external consultants and legal counsel as required.

DAEDALUS PARTNERS LLP (REGISTERED NUMBER: OC365551)

REPORT OF THE MEMBERS
for the Year Ended 31 DECEMBER 2023


ENERGY AND CARBON REPORTING
Due to its size, the LLP falls within the disclosure requirements for streamlined energy and carbon reporting (SECR). Daedalus partners LLP has taken advantage of the exemption available to it to not provide the SECR disclosures as the LLP consumed less than 40,000 Kwh of energy during the period for which the report would be prepared, it qualifies as a low energy user and therefore no SECR reporting disclosures would have been given.

S172 STATEMENT
During the financial period to 31 December 2023, the active designated members have considered the needs of the Partnership's stakeholders as part of their decision-making process. Specifically, the active designated members consider the likely consequences of its key decisions in the long term and the need to act fairly between its stakeholders. The Partnership's key stakeholders, why they are important to the Partnership and how they have been engaged are;

Partners: Delivering for the Partnership's partners ensures that the business continues to be successful in the long term and can therefore continue to deliver for all our stakeholders. As the partners are actively engaged on a full-time basis in the management of Daedalus Partners LLP then there is naturally complete transparency in operation.

Clients: Clients are central to the business - without them the Partnership would not exist. The Partnership aims to deliver a consistently high performance in an efficient and continuously improving way so as to meet the customer's needs. The Partnership's engagement in the early stages of client's business allows the Partnership to add the most value, providing the client with the right advice or funding structure for their business. Feedback is sought throughout the engagement.

Suppliers: Building strong relationships with suppliers enables the Partnership to obtain the best value, service and quality. The Partnership works with suppliers who understand our business and adhere to our ways of working. The active designated members work hard to understand our supply chain and develop deeper and more strategic relationships with key suppliers.

Communities: What the Partnership does is an integral part of the start-up entrepreneur community and the community ultimately provides our customers with deal-flow. Poor relationships can damage and even destroy our reputation. Good relationships win goodwill. The Partnership seeks to actively engage with the start-up entrepreneur communities and seeks to reduce the environmental impact of our operations.

REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF
DAEDALUS PARTNERS LLP

Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of Daedalus Partners LLP (the 'LLP') for the year ended 31 December 2023 which comprise the Income Statement, Other Comprehensive Income, Balance Sheet, Reconciliation of Members' Interests, 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 LLP's affairs as at 31 December 2023 and of its loss 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 as applied to LLPs by the Limited Liability Partnerships (Accounts and Audit) (Application of Companies Act 2006) Regulations 2008.

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 LLP 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 members' 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 LLP'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 members with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.

Other information
The members are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information in the Report of the Members, 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.

Matters on which we are required to report by exception
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters where the Companies Act 2006 as applied to LLPs 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
- we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit.

REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF
DAEDALUS PARTNERS LLP


Responsibilities of members
As explained more fully in the Members' Responsibilities Statement set out on pages three and four, the members 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 members 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 members are responsible for assessing the LLP'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 members either intend to liquidate the LLP 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:

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. Our approach to identifying and assessing the risks of material misstatement in respect of irregularities, including fraud was as follows:

- enquiry of management and those charged with governance around actual and potential litigation and claims;
- enquiry of entity staff and the board of directors to identify any instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations; and
- reviewing financial statement disclosures and testing to supporting documentation to assess compliance with applicable laws and regulations.

We identified the greatest risk of material impact on the financial statements from irregularities, including fraud, to involve the completeness and timing of income recognition and the override of controls by management.

To address the risk of fraud in relation to revenue recognition, we:
- Performed analytical procedures to address completeness and accuracy of sales;
- Assessed the appropriateness and application of the accounting policy concerning income recognition; and

To address the risk of fraud through management bias and override of controls, we:
- Performed analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected relationships;
- Tested journal entries to identify unusual transactions;
- Assessed whether judgements and assumptions made in determining the accounting estimates were indicative of potential bias;
- Investigated the rationale behind significant or unusual transactions.

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

Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the LLP's members those matters we are required to state to them in a Report of the Auditors and for no other purpose.

1. STATUTORY INFORMATION

Daedalus Partners LLP is registered in England and Wales. The LLP's registered number and registered office address can be found on the General Information page.

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparing the financial statements
The financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis and in accordance with applicable accounting standards. The financial statements are prepared in sterling which is the functional currency of the entity.

Going concern
The members have reviewed the activities of the Group and Partnership to date the current working capital position of the group and the ability to reduce certain cost, the members currently believe the group can manage their cash flow for the year ahead. The Group and Partnership therefore continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing its financial statements.

Critical accounting judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty
Judgement is applied when accessing the point at which the LLP obtains the right to consideration to determine if revenue and costs should be recognised in the current period, degree of completion and wether payment is likely or not to justify revenue recognition.

Revenue recognition
The total turnover of the LLP for the year has been derived from its principal activity wholly undertaken in the United Kingdom. Turnover included amounts receivable for sale of services in relation to alternative investment opportunities and products net of value added tax. Turnover in respect of service contracts and management fees of investment funds are recognised when the LLP obtains the rights to consideration and the fund has closed.

Financial instruments
Financial assets
Financial assets are recognised when the entity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the financial instrument. The LLP does not hold any third party financial assets.

Loans and receivables
Trade receivables and other receivables that have fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market are classified as loans and receivables. Loans and receivables are initially recognised at value transaction price and are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
Financial liabilities and equity instruments.
Financial liabilities and equity 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. Other financial liabilities (including borrowing and trade and other payables) are initially recognised at transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

Defined contribution plans
Contributions to defined contribution plans are recognised as an expense in the period in which the related service is provided. Prepaid contributions are recognised as an asset to the extent that the prepayment will lead to a reduction in future payments or a cash refund.

When contributions are not expected to be settled wholly within 12 months of the end of the reporting date in which the employees render the related service, the liability is measured on a discounted present value basis. The unwinding of the discount is recognised as a finance cost in profit or loss of the period in which it arises.

Taxation
Taxation on the LLP's profits is solely the personal liability of individual members and is not dealt with in these financial statements.

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

Members' participation rights
Members' participation rights are the rights of a member against the LLP that arise under the members' agreement in respect of amounts subscribed or otherwise contributed, remuneration and profits.

Members' participation rights in the earnings or assets of the LLP are analysed between those that are, from the LLP's perspective, either a financial liability or equity, in accordance with Section 22 of FRS 102, 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland', and the requirements of the Statement of Recommended Practice 'Accounting by Limited Liability Partnerships'. A member's participation right results in a liability unless the right to any payment is discretionary on the part of the LLP.

Amounts subscribed or otherwise contributed by members, for example members' capital, are classed as equity if the LLP has an unconditional right to refuse payment to members. If the LLP does not have such an unconditional right, such amounts are classified as liabilities.

Where profits are automatically divided as they arise, so the LLP does not have an unconditional right to refuse payment, the amounts arising that are due to members are in the nature of liabilities. They are therefore treated as an expense in the statement of comprehensive income in the relevant year. To the extent that they remain unpaid at the year end, they are shown as liabilities in the statement of financial position.

Conversely, where profits are divided only after a decision by the LLP or its representative, so that the LLP has an unconditional right to refuse payment, such profits are classed as an appropriation of equity rather than as an expense. They are therefore shown as a residual amount available for discretionary division among members in the statement of comprehensive income and are equity appropriations in the statement of financial position.

Other amounts applied to members, for example remuneration paid under an employment contract and interest on capital balances, are treated in the same way as all other divisions of profits, as described above, according to whether the LLP has, in each case, an unconditional right to refuse payment.

All amounts due to members that are classified as liabilities are presented in the statement of financial position within 'Loans and other debts due to members' and are charged to the statement of comprehensive income within 'Members' remuneration charged as an expense'. Amounts due to members that are classified as equity are shown in the statement of financial position within 'Members' other interests'.
