The Directors present their annual report and audited financial statements for CILS Leighton Buzzard Limited (the "Company") for the year ended 31 December 2024.

In preparing this report, the Company has taken the advantage of the exemption provided by section 414B of the Companies Act 2006 in not preparing a Strategic Report under the small company exemption.

The principal activity of the Company is the leasing of commercial logistics property.

The results for the year are set out on Page 7. The Company made a loss before taxation of £4,243,629 (2023: £6,648,507) of which £671,232 relates to fair value gain on investment property (2023: loss of £1,441,641).

No ordinary dividends were paid. The Directors do not recommend payment of a final dividend.

Business performance

The results and the financial position of the Company are considered to be satisfactory by the Directors compared to budget. Turnover is driven by the leasing of commercial units, revenue for the year from lease income was £3,753,490 (2023: £3,726,666). Compared to budget, the Company has had a successful year maintaining its fully occupied commercial units as at the year end.

The Directors who held office during the period and up to the date of approval of the financial statements were as follows:

The Company has made qualifying third party indemnity provisions for the benefit of its directors during the year. These provisions remain in force at the reporting date.

During the year the Company made no charitable donations.

The Directors consider the Company will continue to achieve stable revenue as the site has achieved maximum occupancy as at the year end. The focus is now on maximising the efficiency of operating costs over the coming year.

Going concern

The Directors have conducted an assessment of the Company's ability to continue as a going concern for the financial year ended 31 December 2024, considering the available resources and expected obligations up until 30 June 2026, being the going concern period. The Company is part of a Group which also includes CI Logistics Strat 1 LP, CI Logistics Strat 1 GP Limited, CILS1 UK Holdings Limited and its subsidiaries (collectively referred to as the “Group”). The Directors have assessed that the going concern of the Company is dependent upon the going concern of the Group. At the Group level, the Directors have prepared a detailed forecast of the anticipated operational outgoings, incorporating severe but plausible downside risks, and have considered the operational income, expenses, and financing costs up until 30 June 2026. As at 31 December 2024, the Company has net current liabilities of £96,739,044 (2023: £6,149,782) and net liabilities of £3,439,044 (2023: net assets of £379,585). The Company’s activities are funded by capital from its shareholder, CILS1 UK Holdings Limited, which in turn is funded by capital from CI Logistics Strat 1 LP (the “Partnership”).

The Group has a lending facility of £381,600,000 (2023: £381,600,000) of which £380,480,078 (2023: £379,422,476) is drawn as at 31 December 2024. Subsequent to the year ended 31 December 2024, a repayment of £40 million was made to the lender, reducing the total amount borrowed to £340,480,078. The lending facility expires on 14 November 2025 at which point the Group will refinance the loan with a new lender which is outside of the Group’s control. The Directors have considered the option to refinance, along with the indicative covenants and terms received from three lending agents and subject to meeting these covenants and the availability of cash which will be required to pay down the existing loan, this will likely lead to a cash shortfall during the going concern period.

The Directors have determined that there are material uncertainties in relation to (i) the Group’s ability to refinance over which management of the Group does not have absolute control and (ii) whether the Group will be able to secure additional commitment from the Limited Partners of CI Logistics Strat 1 LP to cover the identified cash shortfall, resulting from operational costs and requirements to refinance with a new lender by November 2025, which falls within the going concern period. These material uncertainties may cast significant doubt over the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern and, therefore, that it may be unable to realise its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business.

Notwithstanding the material uncertainties described above, the Directors have a reasonable expectation that given the quality and location of the assets, that the Group will be able to lease all assets during the going concern period which will in turn increase rental income received and the fair value of the assets held. The Directors also have a reasonable expectation that the Company will receive additional capital from its direct and indirect shareholders to fund a cash shortfall. This expectation is based on the financial outlook of the Limited Partners, past experience of the Limited Partners providing financial support, and their willingness to support the Partnership to protect their invested economic interest. In addition, since the year-end the Limited Partners have continued to support the Partnership with the conversion of optional commitment to the mandatory commitment in January 2025. For these reasons the Directors have a reasonable expectation that the Company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for a period up until 30 June 2026 being the going concern period, and therefore considers it appropriate to prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis.

Ernst & Young LLP were re-appointed as auditor to the Company and in accordance with section 485 of the Companies Act 2006, a resolution proposing that they be re-appointed will be put at a General Meeting.

So far as each person who is a Director of the Company at the date of approving this report is aware, there is no relevant audit information, being information needed by the auditor in connection with preparing its report, of which the auditor is unaware. Having made enquiries of fellow Directors and the Company's auditor, each Director has taken all steps that he is obliged to take as a Director of the Company in order to make himself aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the auditor is aware of that information.

Details of subsequent events are set out in note 21.

The directors are responsible for preparing the annual report 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 applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards including FRS 101 "Reduced Disclosure Framework" (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). 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;

• state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;

• comply with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 with respect to accounting records and of the presentation of financial statements; and

• 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.

We have audited the financial statements of CILS Leighton Buzzard Limited (the “Company”) for the year ended 31 December 2024 which comprise the Income Statement, the Statement of Financial Position, the Statement of Changes in Equity and the related notes 1 to 21, including material accounting policy information. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards including FRS 101 “Reduced Disclosure Framework (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

In our opinion, the financial statements:

• give a true and fair view of the Company’s affairs as at 31 December 2024 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.

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 the provisions available for small entities, in the circumstances set out in note 1.1 to the financial statements, 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.

Material uncertainties relating to going concern

We draw attention to note 1.2 in the financial statements, which indicates that the Company, along with CI Logistics Strat 1 LP, CI Logistics Strat 1 GP Limited, CILS1 UK Holdings Limited, and its subsidiaries (collectively the “Group”), has material uncertainties regarding its ability to continue as a going concern. The material uncertainties relate to (i) The Group's ability to refinance by November 2025, which is not entirely within the control of the Group's management and (ii) whether the Group will be able to secure additional commitment from the Limited Partners of CI Logistics Strat 1 LP to cover the identified cash shortfall, resulting from operational costs and requirements to refinance by November 2025.

As stated in note 1.2, these events or conditions, along with the other matters as set forth in note 1.2, indicate that material uncertainties exist that may cast significant doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a 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. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.

Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the Directors with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report. However, because not all future events or conditions can be predicted, this statement is not a guarantee as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

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 this 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 the 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 Directors’ report for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and

• the Directors’ report has been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.

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:

• 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

• the Directors were not entitled to prepare the financial statements in accordance with the small companies’ regime and take advantage of the small companies’ exemptions in preparing the Directors’ report and from the requirement to prepare a strategic report.

As explained more fully in the Directors’ responsibilities statement set out on page 3, 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.

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.

Explanation as to what extent the audit was considered capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud

Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect irregularities, including fraud.  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 by, for example, forgery or intentional misrepresentations, or through collusion The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below. However, the primary responsibility for the prevention and detection of fraud rests with both those charged with governance of the entity and management.

Our approach was as follows:

• We obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory frameworks that are applicable to the Company and determined that the most significant are the Companies Act 2006, those relating to its reporting framework being the United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice and any relevant direct and indirect tax compliance regulation in the United Kingdom.

• We understood how the Company is complying with those frameworks by making enquiries of management and those responsible for legal and compliance procedures. We corroborated our enquiries through our review of minutes of board meetings of the Company as well as validating how policies and procedures in these areas are communicated and monitored. We also reviewed any correspondence with relevant authorities.

• We assessed the susceptibility of the Company’s financial statements to material misstatement, including how fraud might occur by making enquiries of management and those charged with governance. Where the risk was considered to be higher, we performed audit procedures in response to the identified fraud risks. These procedures included testing of specific accounting journal entries and focussed testing on the Company’s investment. These procedures were designed to provide reasonable assurance that the financial statements were free from fraud and error. We also considered management’s incentives around improving the performance of the Company, the opportunities available to execute any such actions through management override as well as the controls that the Company has established to address any such risks identified, including to prevent, deter and detect fraud and the monitoring of such controls by management.

• Based on this understanding we designed our audit procedures to identify noncompliance with such laws and regulations. Our procedures involved supplementing our enquiries of management and those charged with governance as well as review of board meeting minutes of the Company.

• Amendments to IAS 21 Lack of Exchangeability

• Amendments to IFRS 9 and IFRS 7 Financial Instruments

• IFRS 18 Presentation and Disclosures in Financial Statements

The Directors have conducted an assessment of the Company's ability to continue as a going concern for the financial year ended 31 December 2024, considering the available resources and expected obligations up until 30 June 2026, being the going concern period. The Company is part of a Group which also includes CI Logistics Strat 1 LP, CI Logistics Strat 1 GP Limited, CILS1 UK Holdings Limited and its subsidiaries (collectively referred to as the “Group”). The Directors have assessed that the going concern of the Company is dependent upon the going concern of the Group. At the Group level, the Directors have prepared a detailed forecast of the anticipated operational outgoings, incorporating severe but plausible downside risks, and have considered the operational income, expenses, and financing costs up until 30 June 2026. As at 31 December 2024, the Company has net current liabilities of £96,739,044 (2023: £6,149,782) and net liabilities of £3,439,044 (2023: net assets of £379,585). The Company’s activities are funded by capital from its shareholder, CILS1 UK Holdings Limited, which in turn is funded by capital from CI Logistics Strat 1 LP (the “Partnership”). true

The Group has a lending facility of £381,600,000 (2023: £381,600,000) of which £380,480,078 (2023: £379,422,476) is drawn as at 31 December 2024. Subsequent to the year ended 31 December 2024, a repayment of £40 million was made to the lender, reducing the total amount borrowed to £340,480,078. The lending facility expires on 14 November 2025 at which point the Group will refinance the loan with a new lender which is outside of the Group’s control. The Directors have considered the option to refinance, along with the indicative covenants and terms received from three lending agents and subject to meeting these covenants and the availability of cash which will be required to pay down the existing loan, this will likely lead to a cash shortfall during the going concern period.

The Directors have determined that there are material uncertainties in relation to (i) the Group’s ability to refinance over which management of the Group does not have absolute control and (ii) whether the Group will be able to secure additional commitment from the Limited Partners of CI Logistics Strat 1 LP to cover the identified cash shortfall, resulting from operational costs and requirements to refinance with a new lender by November 2025, which falls within the going concern period. These material uncertainties may cast significant doubt over the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern and, therefore, that it may be unable to realise its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business.

Notwithstanding the material uncertainties described above, the Directors have a reasonable expectation that given the quality and location of the assets, that the Group will be able to lease all assets during the going concern period which will in turn increase rental income received and the fair value of the assets held. The Directors also have a reasonable expectation that the Company will receive additional capital from its direct and indirect shareholders to fund a cash shortfall. This expectation is based on the financial outlook of the Limited Partners, past experience of the Limited Partners providing financial support, and their willingness to support the Partnership to protect their invested economic interest. In addition, since the year-end the Limited Partners have continued to support the Partnership with the conversion of optional commitment to the mandatory commitment in January 2025. For these reasons the Directors have a reasonable expectation that the Company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for a period up until 30 June 2026 being the going concern period, and therefore considers it appropriate to prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis.

Revenue is measured based on the consideration specified in a contract with a customer and excludes amounts collected on behalf of third parties. The Company recognises revenue when it transfers control of a product or service to a customer.

Revenue from the rental of commercial units is recognised on a straight-line basis over the term of the relevant lease and to the extent that the Company obtains right to consideration in exchange for its performance that can be reliably measured. Revenue is recognised in the period in which it is earned and measured as the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, adjusted for any capital contributions or other lease incentives provided, excluding value added tax.

Tenant lease incentives are recognised as a reduction of rental revenue on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease, or the break clause date. The lease term is the non-cancellable period of the lease together with any further term for which the tenant has the option to continue the lease, where, at the inception of the lease, the Company is reasonably certain that the tenant will exercise that option.

Revenue is stated net of VAT and comprises of commercial rental income.

Investment properties are properties that are held either to earn rental income or for capital appreciation, or both, and are not occupied by the Company. Investment property is measured initially at cost, including related transaction costs. After initial recognition investment property is held at fair value based on a valuation undertaken by an independent professional valuer.

The Company's investment property is comprised of a logistics asset in Leighton Buzzard. The investment property in the Company is held at fair value during the year ended 31 December 2024.

Moreover, any lease incentives provided by the Company to its retail commercial tenants are netted off against the value of the investment property and correspondingly adjusted against the gains and losses arising from the changes in the fair value of the investment property included in the income statement.

Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of qualifying assets, which are assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use or sale, are added to the cost of those assets, until such time as the assets are substantially ready for their intended use or sale.

All other borrowing costs are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred.

Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, current and fixed deposits with banks and similar institutions, with original maturities of three months or less, which are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to insignificant risk of changes in value.

Financial assets are recognised in the Company's statement of financial position when the Company becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Financial assets are classified into specified categories, depending on the nature and purpose of the financial assets.

At initial recognition, financial assets classified as fair value through profit or loss are measured at fair value and any transaction costs are recognised in profit or loss. Financial assets not classified as fair value through profit or loss are initially measured at fair value plus transaction costs. Subsequent measurement depends on the classification and is discussed below.

Financial instruments are classified as financial assets measured at amortised cost where the objective is to hold these assets in order to collect contractual cash flows, and the contractual cash flows are solely payments of principal and interest. They arise principally from the provision of goods and services to customers (eg trade receivables). They are initially recognised at fair value plus transaction costs directly attributable to their acquisition or issue and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method, less provision for impairment where necessary.

Financial assets carried at amortised cost and FVOCI are assessed for indicators of impairment at each reporting end date.

The expected credit losses associated with these assets are estimated on a forward-looking basis. A broad range of information is considered when assessing credit risk and measuring expected credit losses, including past events, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the expected collectability of the future cash flows of the instrument.

Financial assets are derecognised only when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire, or when it transfers the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to another entity.

Financial liabilities are classified as measured at fair value through profit or loss when the financial liability is held for trading. A financial liability is classified as held for trading if:

• it has been incurred principally for the purpose of repurchasing it in the near term, or

• on initial recognition it is part of a portfolio of identified financial instruments that the ompany manages together and has a recent actual pattern of short-term profit taking, or

• it is a derivative that is not designated and effective hedging instrument.

Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are stated at fair value with any gains or losses arising on remeasurement recognised in profit or loss.

Other financial liabilities, including borrowings, trade payables and other short-term monetary liabilities, are initially measured at fair value net of transaction costs directly attributable to the issuance of the financial liability. They are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. For the purposes of each financial liability, interest expense includes initial transaction costs and any premium payable on redemption, as well as any interest or coupon payable while the liability is outstanding.

Financial liabilities are derecognised when, and only when, the Company’s obligations are discharged, cancelled, or they expire.

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

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

Current income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to taxation authorities. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the amount are those that are enacted, or substantively enacted, at the reporting date in the countries where the Company operates and generates taxable income.

Management periodically evaluates positions taken in tax returns with respect to situations in which applicable tax regulations are subject to interpretation and establishes provisions where appropriate.

Deferred tax is the tax expected to be payable or recoverable on differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit, and is accounted for using the balance sheet liability method. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all taxable temporary differences and deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which deductible temporary differences can be utilised. Such assets and liabilities are not recognised if the temporary 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.

The key assumptions concerning the future, and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting period end that may have a significant risk of causing a material misstatement to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year, are discussed below:

In the application of the Company's accounting policies that are set out in note 1, the Directors are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The directors have also made judgements about the going concern of the Company as described in note 1.2. 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 if the revision affects only that period, or in the period if the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.

The Company's investment property held, which is initially measured at cost and subsequently at fair value through profit or loss at the end of the reporting period. Any unrealised gains or losses on this investment is recognised immediately in the income statement.

Fair value is the amount for which an asset could be exchanged, a liability settled, or an equity instrument granted could be exchanged, between knowledgeable, willing parties in an arm's length transaction.

The fair valuation of the property was carried out by an external third-party valuation expert for inclusion in the audited financial statements where a significant period of time had elapsed since its acquisition date as part of quantifying the investment property held by the Company. The significant methods and assumptions used by valuers in estimating fair value of investment property are set out in note 10.

Investment property is measured based on estimates prepared by independent real estate valuation experts.

There is only one operating segment. All revenue arose within the United Kingdom.

The Company earns rental income from leasing out its completed logistics space to commercial tenants. The future minimum lease payments in relation to non-cancellable operating leases are as follows:

The Company had no employees and incurred no staff costs during the year. There were £nil Directors' emoluments in the year (2023: £nil).

The charge for the year can be reconciled to the loss per the income statement as follows:

The Company has unutilised carried forward tax losses of £326,315 as at 31 December 2024 (2023: £nil).
