| GROUP STRATEGIC REPORT |
| FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2024 |
| The groups full year trading results can be found on page 11 of the statutory accounts. |
| REVIEW OF BUSINESS |
| The review of business has been structure to show a review of each subsidiary separately. |
| MH 4 Limited |
| The main core activity of the company is to provide management services and financial assistance to its subsidiaries and to this end the company has enacted a group wide policy of voting all retained profits, save for £50k, of subsidiaries to the holding company. |
| The company is working on new ventures within the Medical Services sector, and other traditional recruitment services to compliment other subsidiary company activities. It is expected these ventures will be launched in 2024/25. |
| Evergood Associates Limited |
| This is the main trading company within the group and the company's main trading activity is that of recruitment within the health and social care sectors. |
| The post covid demand for health and social care services has resulted in significant growth as the UK reopened itself in the post-covid era. The past year has followed the path of 2022/23 with further sector pressure on demand, rates and margins. |
| The current trend within the health recruitment sector is for reduced profits and margins within the Government funded health sector. These reductions continue to be fuelled by both competition and the legislative environment which sees Government attempts to cap NHS spending continue. The business is now more equally exposed to the private health sector which has more sporadic demand albeit at rates and margins which are commercially advantageous. |
| Given the challenges noted above the director is pleased that the results for the year which were broadly as anticipated, and the results achieved reflect the ongoing efforts within the whole business team. |
| Turnover remains constant but the current market realities confirm that this has only been achieved at lower margins. |
| Margin has decreased from 29% to 16% which is in part due to the Governments continuing attempts to cap NHS spending and the company's strategic plan over the last 2 year of concentrating on volume over margin with a view to capturing greater market share and overall bottom line profitability. Results from 2022 to 2023 and again into 202 |
| 4 confirm this strategy is succeeding albeit leading to decreased margins. The company intends to stick with this strategy in the short term which it also hopes will help provide better value from its efforts to its primary client; the NHS |
| The decrease in margin has resulted in operating margin, excluding inter-company and one-off charges, decreasing from 10.7% in 2023 to 6.8% in 2024 and operating results decreasing to £669k in 2024 from £1.7m in 2023 |
| One of the company's Key Performance Indicators is to keep debtor days within 90 days and the director is pleased to report that the company has achieved this target and debtor days for the year under review were 40 days compared to 57 days in 2023. |
| Cash generated during the year, excluding cash withdrawn by director shareholder and other group undertakings, increased by £503k.The director considers this to be the main key performance indicator which confirms the company's ability to convert operating profits into cash. |
| Current asset ratio, excluding directors' and inter-company balances, the current asset ratio has increased from 2.4:1 in 2023 to 3.5:1 for the year under review. Liquidity is not considered to be a significant issue given the group resources which are available to the business, and these are considered sufficient to ensure the company can continue to trade given current trading circumstances. |
| The company continues to meet its obligations and requirements in relation to the NHS, Private Hospitals and local authority contracts that are in place and has passed all compliance audits undertaken during the financial year 2024 and beyond. The company seeks to ensure compliance and good relationships with all stakeholders. |
| MH 4 LIMITED (REGISTERED NUMBER: 07846774) |
| GROUP STRATEGIC REPORT |
| FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2024 |
| During the year under review the group has enacted a group wide policy to vote all retained profits, save for £50k, of the subsidiaries to the Holding company. This policy is to enable the holding company to have sufficient resources to support each of its subsidiaries. |
| Future Developments |
| The Director considers given the strength of the group's balance sheet, of which the company is a wholly owned subsidiary, and its continuing support of its subsidiaries, the internal structure and quality of the company's retained staff means that the company is perfectly placed to address the challenges of the upcoming year. |
| The Director is planning for the financial year 2025 to be a year of consolidation after a two-year period which has seen turnover more than double. If this result is attained, it will be a significant achievement. |
| Evergood Travel Limited |
| The company's main trading activity is as a bespoke tour operator concentrating mainly in the Middle East and North American markets. |
| The company reported a profit after taxation of £35k which is up from £28k in 2023. |
| The increase in profits is due to the hard work of staff in generating new business and retaining clients This company will hopefully organically grow as brand awareness builds, and as the company expands its franchise model. |
| Future Developments |
| The director considers given the strength of the group's balance sheet, of which the company is a majority owned subsidiary, and its continuing support of its subsidiaries, the operational structure of the company and the quality of its staff, that the company is perfectly pl aced to take advantage of any increases in demand for holidays in 2024/25. |
| The core business goal for 2025 to 2030 is to grow the franchise model of our fully ABTA and ATOL bonded brand. |
| Evergood Property Limited |
| The company's main trading activity is rental of residential properties within the UK and Ireland. |
| Evergood Property Limited experienced a solid year in terms of occupancy across its portfolio of properties. The company made a significant loss of £170k after a long term tenant was removed from a property which required a complete refit. The company took the opportunity to restore the property to its former glory incurring repairs and other incidental costs of £205k the refit was still ongoing at the year end so further costs are expected in 2025. The company looks forward to a return to profitability in 2024/25. |
| Future Developments |
| The profitability of the company remains under review and with cash deposit interest rates now higher, the Group will assess over the coming year whether the asset growth plus annual profit provides a better yield that cash at bank. |
| Evergood Money Limited |
| Evergood Money Limited did not trade during the financial year ended 2024. |
| Evergood Health and Social Care Limited |
| Evergood Health and Social Care Limited did not trade during the financial year ended 2024. |
| MH 4 Group |
| Other than as outlined above, the director does not consider that it is necessary, for an understanding of the development, performance or position of the group, to provide any further detailed key performance indicators, including those relating to environmental and employee matters. |
| MH 4 LIMITED (REGISTERED NUMBER: 07846774) |
| GROUP STRATEGIC REPORT |
| FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2024 |
| Given the challenges noted above the director is pleased that the results for the year were broadly as anticipated, and the results achieved reflect the ongoing efforts within the whole business team. |
| PRINCIPAL RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES |
| The principal risks and uncertainties of each individual subsidiary are as follows: |
| Evergood Associates Limited |
| The company's operations expose it to financial risks that include, operational risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. |
| Operational risk |
| The Director considers contracts within the NHS framework, Private hospitals and with local authorities to be integral to the running of the business. The loss of these contracts could impact the business and is considered a significant operating risk to the business. The director is not aware of any indications that contracts will not be renewed as and when they fall due and the company ensures that it meets all its obligations and requirements under these contracts. There has been no history of problems in this area. |
| Credit risk |
| The company endeavours to check the credit worthiness of all of its customers and employs legal professionals to chase late paying debtors. |
| Liquidity risk |
| The company actively manages its working capital finance to ensure that it has sufficient funds for current operations and future plans, the holding company has significant funds in readily accessible cash and there is no reason to conclude that these funds will not be accessible to its subsidiaries. |
| Evergood Travel Limited |
| Operational risk |
| The major risk and uncertainty of the company is a further global pandemic. The director has mitigated this risk by reducing company costs and promoting a franchise model thereby devolving further personnel staff costs onto each franchisee. |
| Evergood Property Limited |
| Operational risk |
| The main risk are unforeseen costs associated to property maintenance outweighing the rental income derived. Nevertheless, given the Groups balance sheet and cash position, the damage this risk can pose to both the company and Group is not considered to be material. The director also seeks to mitigate risk by the diversity of its investment portfolio in different locations. |

| MH 4 LIMITED (REGISTERED NUMBER: 07846774) |

| STATEMENT OF DIRECTORS' RESPONSIBILITIES |
| The directors are responsible for preparing the Group 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 the group and of the profit or loss of the group 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 and the group's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the company and the group 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 the group 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 group'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 group's auditors are aware of that information. |
| MH 4 LIMITED (REGISTERED NUMBER: 07846774) |
| REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS |
| FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2024 |
| AUDITORS |
| The auditors, Cook and Partners Limited, will be proposed for re-appointment at the forthcoming Annual General Meeting. |
| ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD: |
| REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF |
| MH 4 LIMITED |
| Opinion |
| We have audited the financial statements of MH 4 Limited (the 'parent company') and its subsidiaries (the 'group') for the year ended 30 September 2024 which comprise the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income, Consolidated Balance Sheet, Company Balance Sheet, Consolidated Statement of Changes in Equity, Company Statement of Changes in Equity, Consolidated Cash Flow Statement and Notes to the Consolidated 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 group's and of the parent company affairs as at 30 September 2024 and of the group's 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 group 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 group's and the parent company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue. |
| Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the directors with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report. |
| Other information |
| The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information in the Group 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 Group 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 Group 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 |
| MH 4 LIMITED |
| Matters on which we are required to report by exception |
| In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the group and the parent company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Group Strategic Report or the 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 by the parent company, or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or |
| - | the parent company 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 five, 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 group's and the parent 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 group or the parent company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so. |
| REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF |
| MH 4 LIMITED |
| 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: |
| 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 material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. |
| The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below: |
| Auditors approach to assessing the risks of material misstatement due to irregularities, including fraud. |
| Our approach was as follows: |
| We obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory frameworks that are applicable to the entity. The following laws and regulations are considered to be significant to the entity: |
| - Financial reporting Standard 102 |
| - Companies Act 2006 |
| - UK General Data Protection Regulation |
| We assessed the risks of material misstatement in respect of fraud as follows: |
| - Discussed the risk of material misstatement due to irregularities, including fraud with management at the planning stage to confirm that risks had been adequately identified and that the controls in place are sufficient for the size and nature of the business to reduce those risks to an acceptably low level. |
| - Undertook an initial analytical review of the financial statements to identify any potentially unusual or unexpected relationships or high risk audit areas. |
| - Completed a risk assessment checklist to aid in the identification of Risks for a company of this size and nature. |
| - We considered the risk of fraud through management override of controls, a common risk in a company of this size and nature, in response; we incorporated testing of manual journal entries into our audit approach and undertook a purely substantive approach to the audit with no reliance placed on controls. |
| - Accounting policies were reviewed at the planning stage to identify any subjective measurements or complex transactions where management would have the potential to show bias. |
| - Ensured all in the audit team are aware of the risks identified and particular areas that were susceptible to misstatement and during the audit planning meeting. |
| - Throughout the audit additional substantive testing was undertaken in areas where there was perceived to be a medium or high risk of misstatement. |
| - Audit testing was undertaken in a manner that was unpredictable in nature, selection and timing when compared to previous years work. |
| - The engagement Partners final review of the audit file and financial statements included a detailed review of all areas of medium or high risk identified at the planning stage of the audit. |
| Based on the results of our risk assessment we designed our audit procedures to identify non-compliance with such laws and regulations identified above: |
| REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF |
| MH 4 LIMITED |
| - Financial reporting Standard 102, Companies Act 2006 and UK General Data Protection Regulation. The audit team all have a good understanding of the requirements under these laws and regulations common to most trading businesses and were alert throughout the audit to any potential instances of non-compliance. |
| - Further, at both the planning and completion stage of the audit enquiries where made of management regarding any known instances of fraud or non-compliance with laws and regulations |
| - These representations were corroborated where possible through the review of board minutes and correspondence with HMRC and companies house. No contradictory evidence was noted. |
| We consider that the work detailed above has ensured that the likelihood of detection of irregularities including fraud is considered to be high both at management level and during our audit approach. It is however worth noting that there is an inherent difficulty in detecting irregularities and there is no guarantee that all irregularities have been identified. |
| 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. |
