STRATEGIC REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024
- 1 -

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

Fair review of the business

The group’s principal activities are that of owning and operating fully serviced apartments and hotels in both the business and leisure accommodation markets. The Group operates restaurant and bar facilities via its wholly owned subsidiary Old Town Hall Restaurants Limited and via the partially owned Restaurant Da Terra Limited.

The business climate has stabilised with the market showing signs of making up ground lost during the pandemic. An average occupancy for 2024 of 62.6% was achieved, down slightly from 66.5% in the previous year. On 23 December 2022, the trade and assets of the operations of 196 Bishopsgate hotel were transferred to a related company. The total revenue of continuing operations for the year was slightly down on the prior period £7,383,321 (2023: £7,524,359).

The group’s principal sources of finance are loans held in by the parent company and strong support from the group’s immediate parent company and fellow subsidiary and from the shareholders and directors.

Business Environment

Whilst the world finally begins to recover from the pandemic, four other significant events occurred – the continued war in Ukraine, the continued impact of Brexit, the flare up of the Israel-Gaza was and the world-wide inflationary pressure resulting in the downturn of many economies.

 

The impact of the hostilities in Ukraine and Gaza are currently not thought to have an immediate effect on the business, although the Directors continue to monitor and assess the situation and the wider impact on inflation and the company’s costs.

 

With Brexit still a major issue, causing a reduction in the availability of EU workers and the worldwide events in Ukraine and Gaza having a negative effect on hospitality in general, the trading environment is uncertain. However, the falling value of the sterling has made the UK more competitive for overseas visitors and travel restrictions have encouraged domestic tourism.

 

Set against this, low UK unemployment rates and above-inflation increases in the minimum wage have all contributed to increased costs associated with acquiring, training and retaining staff. In addition, utility bills continue to increase at above the rate of inflation. A lack of optimism on the macroeconomic front will continue to affect revenues and profitability through to 2024, although recent capital investment and strength of the management team should see the business continue to gain ground on its competitors.

Principal risks and uncertainties

Liquidity Risk

The group is exposed to liquidity risk to fund its ongoing operations. This is managed by undertaking detailed cash flow forecasting to monitor the group and company’s working capital requirements to ensure that sufficient cash resources are available to meet the group and company’s obligations as they fall due.

Financial Risk

The group is subject to financial risks through changes in interest rates. The group's borrowings bear interest at a floating rate and therefore expose the group to interest rate fluctuations. These borrowings are with one major lender and are secured over assets of the company. The directors have considered the potential impact of future rate rises and are confident that these do not present a significant threat to the ability of the group to carry on as a going concern.

In respect of amounts due to and from related parties, the directors have received assurance that such amounts will not be recalled until the group is in the financial position to do so. Accordingly the directors are of the opinion that the group can continue as a going concern.

High levels of inflation are pushing up wholesale prices and labour shortages are driving up wages. These factors are posing a potential threat to the profitability of the group. It is the directors view that potential gains in average room rates and selling prices will counteract the potentially increased cost base to maintain profitability.

DIRECTORS' RESPONSIBILITIES STATEMENT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024
- 4 -

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 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 group and company, and of the profit or loss of the group for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the directors are required to:

 

 

The directors are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the group’s and company’s transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the group and 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 group and company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

RESPITE MANAGEMENT LIMITED
INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
TO THE MEMBERS OF RESPITE MANAGEMENT LIMITED
- 5 -
Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of Respite Management Limited (the 'parent company') and its subsidiaries (the 'group') for the year ended 31 March 2024 which comprise the group profit and loss account, the group statement of comprehensive income, the group balance sheet, the company balance sheet, the group statement of changes in equity, the company statement of changes in equity, the group statement of cash flows 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 FRS 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 group's and 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 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

Except for the possible effects of the matter described in the basis for qualified opinion section of our report, in our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of our audit:

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT (CONTINUED)
TO THE MEMBERS OF RESPITE MANAGEMENT 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 strategic report and the directors' report.

 

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:

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 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 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.

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.

 

As part of our planning process:

 

The key procedures we undertook to detect irregularities including fraud during the course of the audit included:Ÿ

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.

Accounting policies
Company information

Respite Management Limited (“the company”) is a private limited company domiciled and incorporated in England and Wales. The registered office is .

 

The group consists of Respite Management Limited and its subsidiaries, Old Town Hall Restaurants Limited and Restaurant Da Terra Limited.

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.

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. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.

The company is a qualifying entity for the purposes of FRS 102, being a member of a group where the parent of that group prepares publicly available consolidated financial statements, including this company, which are intended to give a true and fair view of the assets, liabilities, financial position and profit or loss of the group. The company has therefore taken advantage of exemptions from the following disclosure requirements for parent company information presented within the consolidated financial statements:

 

1.2
Basis of consolidation

The consolidated group financial statements consist of the financial statements of the parent company Respite Management Limited together with its subsidiaries, Old Town Hall Restaurants Limited and Restaurant Da Terra Limitred.

 

All financial statements are made up to 31 March 2024. Where necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to bring the accounting policies used into line with those used by other members of the group.

 

All intra-group transactions, balances and unrealised gains on transactions between group companies are eliminated on consolidation. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of an impairment of the asset transferred.

Subsidiaries are consolidated in the group’s financial statements from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases.

1.3
Going concern

The directors have considered the going concern status of the entity. On 23 December 2022, the company transferred the trade and assets of one of the hotels where the entity operates to a related company, 196 Serviced Residences Limited. This hotel has historically been profit making therefore future profits for Respite Management Limited are less certain.

 

The group had net liabilities of £7,697,987 (2023: £7,151,412) and net current liabilities of £8,708,757 (2023: £7,955,722) as at 31 March 2024 and also owe amounts of £3,099,826 (2023: £3,099,826) to a related party, KMC Holdings Pte Limited, which are repayable on demand. KMC Holdings Pte Limited are in a net current liability and net liability position and therefore it cannot be relied upon that this debt will not be recalled. That being said, it has been confirmed the amounts owed to KMC Holdings Limited Pte by the group would be assigned as far as they are able against amounts receivable from KMC Holdings Limited Pte of £2,907,269 in a fellow group company.

 

The group has the financial backing of one of its directors (Lik Peng Loh) who is providing support for a period of at least 12 months after the approval of these financial statements so the company and the group can meet their expenses and liabilities as they fall due. Further to this, the group owe amounts to the ultimate shareholders and directors of £3,866,671 (2023: £3,886,671) who have confirmed they will not demand repayments of this sum. The group has also received confirmation from KMC Holdings Pte Limited (see note 24) which are owed money from the group that they will not seek repayment and that they will provide financial support for a period of at least 13 months from the date of approval of these financial statements.

 

Having been satisfied that such support is available, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the company and the group have adequate resources available to continue in operation for the foreseeable future and there are no material uncertainties regarding going concern. Thus, the directors continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.

1.4
Turnover

Turnover is derived from hotel and restaurant operations, and arose wholly in the United Kingdom. Turnover is recognised when services have been rendered. The turnover is derived primarily from the rental of rooms and food and beverage sales. Turnover is all rendering of goods and services.

 

Turnover is recognised at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable for goods and services provided in the normal course of business, and is shown net of VAT and other sales related taxes.

1.5
Intangible fixed assets - goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of acquisition of a business over the fair value of net assets acquired. It is initially recognised as an asset at cost and is subsequently measured at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses. Goodwill is considered to have a finite useful life and is amortised on a systematic basis over its expected life, which is 10 years.

 

For the purposes of impairment testing, goodwill is allocated to the cash-generating units expected to benefit from the acquisition. Cash-generating units to which goodwill has been allocated are tested for impairment at least annually, or more frequently when there is an indication that the unit may be impaired. If the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit is less than the carrying amount of the unit, the impairment loss is allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the unit and then to the other assets of the unit pro-rata on the basis of the carrying amount of each asset in the unit.

1.6
Tangible fixed assets

Tangible fixed assets are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost or valuation, net of depreciation and any impairment losses.

Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets less their residual values over their useful lives on the following bases:

Leasehold improvements
Over the life of the lease
Plant and equipment
25% straight line
Fixtures and fittings
10% - 25% straight line
Computers
33% straight line

The gain or loss arising on the disposal of an asset is determined as the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying value of the asset, and is recognised in the profit and loss account.

1.7
Fixed asset investments

Interests in subsidiaries are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. The investments are assessed for impairment at each reporting date and any impairment losses or reversals of impairment losses are recognised immediately in profit or loss.

A subsidiary is an entity controlled by the group. Control is the power to govern the financial and operating policies of the entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities.

1.8
Impairment of fixed assets

At each reporting period end date, the group reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible and intangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any). Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the company estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.

1.9
Stocks

Stocks are stated at the lower of cost and estimated selling price. The cost of stock includes the purchase of food and beverages.

1.10
Financial instruments

The group has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 ‘Basic Financial Instruments’ and Section 12 ‘Other Financial Instruments Issues’ of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments.

 

Financial instruments are recognised in the group's balance sheet when the group becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

 

Financial assets and liabilities are offset and 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.

Accounting policies

Impairment of financial assets

Financial assets, other than those held at fair value through profit and loss, are assessed for indicators of impairment at each reporting end date.

 

Financial assets are impaired where there is objective evidence that, as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the financial asset, the estimated future cash flows have been affected. If an asset is impaired, the impairment loss is the difference between the carrying amount and the present value of the estimated cash flows discounted at the asset’s original effective interest rate. The impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss.

 

If there is a decrease in the impairment loss arising from an event occurring after the impairment was recognised, the impairment is reversed. The reversal is such that the current carrying amount does not exceed what the carrying amount would have been, had the impairment not previously been recognised. The impairment reversal is recognised in profit or loss.

Derecognition of financial assets

Financial assets are derecognised only when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire or are settled, or when the group transfers the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to another entity, or if some significant risks and rewards of ownership are retained but control of the asset has transferred to another party that is able to sell the asset in its entirety to an unrelated third party.

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 group after deducting all of its liabilities.

Basic financial liabilities

Basic financial liabilities, including creditors, bank loans, loans from fellow group companies and related parties, 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.

Derecognition of financial liabilities

Financial liabilities are derecognised when the group's contractual obligations expire or are discharged or cancelled.

1.11
Equity instruments

Equity instruments issued by the group 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 group.

1.12
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.

Retirement benefits

Payments to defined contribution retirement benefit schemes are charged as an expense as they fall due.

1.14
Leases

Rentals payable under operating leases, including any lease incentives received, are charged to profit or loss on a straight line basis over the term of the relevant lease except where another more systematic basis is more representative of the time pattern in which economic benefits from the leased asset are consumed.

1.15
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.

2
Judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty

In the application of the group’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.

Critical judgements

The following judgements (apart from those involving estimates) have had the most significant effect on amounts recognised in the financial statements.

Key sources of estimation uncertainty
Recoverability of amounts owed by group undertakings

Amounts owed from the group are assessed for the recoverability of the balance. The directors consider the amounts owed by group undertakings at the year end of £2,750,063 (2023: £1,953,504) to be recoverable due to the market value of the properties held within these group undertakings and therefore have not made any provision against these balances.

 

The directors considered amounts due from Respite Management Limited's subsidiary undertaking, Old Town Hall Restaurants Limited, to not be recoverable and these have been provided for in these accounts. The bad debt provision against the amounts due from the company's subsidiary is £3,001,613 (2023: £3,001,613). Further amounts have been provided for against amounts due from Respite Management Limited's subsidiary undertaking, Restaurant Da Terra Limited of £180,192 (2023: £180,192).
