| Group Strategic Report |
| for the Year Ended 31 December 2024 |
| The directors present their strategic report of the company and the group for the year ended 31 December 2024. |
| REVIEW OF BUSINESS |
| The company is a wholly owned subsidiary of a group which is ultimately controlled by Miko NV a company incorporated in Belgium. The company has consolidated its subsidiaries as mentioned in Note no 21, which are all registered in the United Kingdom, whose financial statements are available puplicly. |
| The company and its immediate parent undertaking Miko Koffie NV are consolidated by Miko NV and its financial statements are available from Steenweg op Mol 177, 2300 Turnhout, Belgium. |
| Despite uncertain global economic conditions due to Eastern European and Middle Eastern conflicts the company has experienced an increase in turnover. The price of coffee has increased following the harvest conditions in Brazil affecting the wider industry, nevertheless the company experienced an increase in sales margin. |
| The Miko Coffee group has adapted operations, risen to these challenges and worked constructively with our suppliers and professional advisers. As a result, the Miko Coffee group has performed within expectations and its performance is reflected below. |
| The consolidated profit for the year after tax amounted to £949,375 (2023: £362,061). |
| The group retained a positive combined cash and bank balance of £755,244 (2023: £637,481). |
| The directors are satisfied with the results in the year under review in a progressively competitive industry with tough trading conditions. |

| Group Strategic Report |
| for the Year Ended 31 December 2024 |
| PRINCIPAL RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES |
| The group's principal financial instruments comprise of cash, short term deposits and various items such as trade debtors and trade creditors that arise directly from its operations. The main purpose of these financial instruments is to fund the group's operation as well as to manage working capital, liquidity and invest surplus funds. |
| The business is subject to several risks and uncertainties - including changes in green coffee prices and other input costs, exchange rates, competition and innovation and changes in the customer base. Coffee prices, input costs and exchange rates are monitored with reference to external markets and the company will consider adjusting its pricing to reflect increases or decreases in costs. The company is pro-active in its marketing and product introductions in order to compete in the market. The company aims to be present in all channels where a consumer shops so changes in the customer base should not have a material impact on business performance. |
| The directors continue to assess the risks facing the group, both the securing of new business and maintaining existing relationship are key to the group's success. |
| In addition the group adopts a proactive approach to marketing and product innovation to remain competitive and relevant in a dynamic market environment. Efforts are also made to maintain a strong presence across all customer touchpoints, helping to reduce the potential adverse impact of changes in the customer landscape on overall performance. |
| Environmental regulations, such as the introduction of packaging taxes, will result in increased costs for the business in the future. The group has taken active steps to reduce its exposure by rolling out recyclable packaging solutions across its product portfolio. This initiative not only supports compliance with regulatory requirements but also aligns with the commitments. |
| Other ongoing challenges are overhead cost control which is kept under regular review by the directors. The directors of the company meet on a regular basis to evaluate risk exposure and risk appetite. The key risk broadly fall into the following categories: |
| MARKET |
| The group monitors the general economic and political changes in the beverage sector. The directors pay attention to these changes and tailor their services and agreement in order to maintain the level of income and profitability. |
| COMPETITIVE |
| The main competitive risks to the group arise from changing customer requirements based on market demand. The group continues to monitor changes and has developed effective procedures to satisfy their current and future needs. |
| LEGISLATIVE RISK |
| On a regular basis the directors review the group legislative risk exposure to ensure that all applicable directions are observed. |
| FINANCIAL INSTRUMENT RISK |
| The group has established a risk and financial management framework whose primary objectives are to protect the group from events that hinder the achievement of its performance objectives. The objectives aim to limit undue counterpart exposure, ensure efficient working capital exists and monitor the management of risk. |
| FUTURE DEVELOPMENTS |
| The directors expect some challenges in pricing of commodities and related products due to the continuous evolvement of US Government economic policies. These events are being constantly monitored by the group and corrective action continued. |

| Group Strategic Report |
| for the Year Ended 31 December 2024 |
| KEY FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE INDICATORS |
| The directors have considered the use of the key performance indicators. The continuous measurement and monitoring of the business performance is a critical element of the management process. In order to provide consistent and comprehensive information the Group use a number of key performance indicators (KPI's) to provide a timely and well-balanced review of the financial performance against predefined targets. |
| Turnover and operating profit are the key measure of financial performance in the group, and are as follows: |
| Units | 2024 | 2023 |
| Turnover | £ | 17,540,795 | 16,050,206 |
| Operating profit/(loss) | £ | 1,606,916 | 931,535 |
| Other key KPIs that demonstrate the level of performance in different parts of the business include: |
| Average salary levels |
| Performance against budget and prior year. |
| The directors are satisfied with the KPI's delivered in the year and are confident that expected performance levels can be maintained for the foreseeable future. |

| 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. |

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; |
| - | state whether applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; |
| - | prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the company will continue in business. |

| Report of the Directors |
| for the Year Ended 31 December 2024 |
| STATEMENT OF DIRECTORS' RESPONSIBILITIES - continued |
| 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. |
| AUDITORS |
| The auditors, BBK Partnership, 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 |
| Miko Coffee Limited |
| Opinion |
| We have audited the financial statements of Miko Coffee Limited (the 'parent company') and its subsidiaries (the 'group') for the year ended 31 December 2024 which comprise the Consolidated Income Statement, Consolidated Other Comprehensive Income, Consolidated Statement of Financial Position, Company Statement of Financial Position, Consolidated Statement of Changes in Equity, Company Statement of Changes in Equity, Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows and Notes to the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows, 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 31 December 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 |
| Miko Coffee 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 pages five and six, 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. |
| 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. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below. |
| Report of the Independent Auditors to the Members of |
| Miko Coffee Limited |
| Our approach to identifying and assessing the risks of material misstatement in respect of irregularities, including fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations, was as follows: |
| - the engagement partner ensured that the engagement team collectively had the appropriate competence, capabilities and skills to identify or recognise non-compliance with applicable laws and regulations; |
| - we identified the laws and regulations applicable to the company through discussions with directors and other management, and from our commercial knowledge and experience of the company's operating sector; |
| - we focused on specific laws and regulations which we considered may have a direct material effect on the financial statements or the operations of the company, including the Companies Act 2006, taxation legislation and data protection, anti-bribery, employment, environmental and health and safety legislation; |
| - we assessed the extent of compliance with the laws and regulations identified above through making enquiries of management and inspecting legal correspondence; and |
| - identified laws and regulations were communicated within the audit team regularly and the team remained alert to instances of non-compliance throughout the audit. |
| We assessed the susceptibility of the company's financial statements to material misstatement, including obtaining an understanding of how fraud might occur, by: |
| - making enquiries of management as to where they considered there was susceptibility to fraud, their knowledge of actual, suspected and alleged fraud; and |
| - considering the internal controls in place to mitigate risks of fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations |
| 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 set out in the financial statements were indicative of potential bias; and |
| - investigated the rationale behind significant or unusual transactions. |
| In response to the risk of irregularities and non-compliance with laws and regulations, we designed procedures which included, but were not limited to: |
| - agreeing financial statement disclosures to underlying supporting documentation; |
| - reading the minutes of meetings of those charged with governance; |
| - enquiring of management as to actual and potential litigation and claims; and |
| - reviewing correspondence with HMRC, relevant regulators including the Health and Safety Executive, and the company's legal advisors. |
| Because of the inherent limitations of an audit, there is a risk that we will not detect all irregularities, including those leading to a material misstatement in the financial statements or non-compliance with regulation. This risk increases the more that compliance with a law or regulation is removed from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, as we will be less likely to become aware of instances of non-compliance. The risk is also greater regarding irregularities occurring due to fraud rather than error, as fraud involves intentional concealment, forgery, collusion, omission or misrepresentation. |
| 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 |
| Miko Coffee Limited |
| 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. |

| 1. | STATUTORY INFORMATION |
| Miko Coffee Limited is a |
| 2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
| Basis of preparing the financial statements |
| Basis of consolidation |
| The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company and its subsidiary undertakings made up to 31 December 2024. A subsidiary is an entity that is controlled by its parent. The results of the subsidiary undertakings are included in the consolidated income statement from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases. Control is established when the company has the power to govern the operating and the financial policies of an entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities. In assessing control, the Group takes into consideration potential voting rights that are currently exercisable. |
| The financial statements are presented in sterling which is the functional currency of the company and rounded to the nearest pound. |
| Significant judgements and estimates |
| In the application of the group's accounting policies, the directors are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of the 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 estimates 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. |
| There are no critical accounting judgements. |
| Key sources of estimation uncertainty |
| The key assumptions concerning the future, and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the balance sheet date, which have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year, are discussed below. |
| Revenue recognition and customer rebate accrual |
| Revenue (Note 8) is recognised when products have been delivered to customers. Promotional costs where the Company support in-store promotional activity are agreed with retailers in advance of activities taking place. Customer rebate accruals are made based on estimates of levels of customer sales and an assessment on the level of redemptions of promotions |

| Turnover |
| Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, excluding discounts, rebates, value added tax and other sales taxes. |
| Turnover from the sale of goods is recognised when significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods have transferred to the buyer, the amount of turnover can be measured reliably, it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the company and the costs incurred or to be incurred in respect of the transaction can be measured reliably. This is usually on dispatch of the goods. |
| Goodwill |
| Goodwill, being the amount paid in connection with the acquisition of various businesses, is being amortised evenly over its estimated useful life of five years. |
| For the purpose 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 units 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. |
| Going concern |
| The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. This requires the Directors to consider, as at the date of approving the financial statements, that there is reasonable expectation that the Company has adequate financial resources to continue to operate, and to meet its liabilities as they fall due for payment, for at least twelve months following the approval of the financial statements. |
| The directors have reviewed the cash balances to cover at least twelve months of operations, including the continuation of employment as currently contracted without any reduction of cost savings initiatives. The results of the review has shown that the company has sufficient cash to cover at least twelve months of operations and the adoption of going concern basis is reasonable and appropriate. |
| Intangible assets |
| Intangible assets are initially measured at cost. After initial recognition, intangible assets are measured at cost less any accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses. |
| Tangible fixed assets |
| Plant and machinery | - |
| Fixtures and fittings | - |
| Motor vehicles | - |
| Computer equipment | - |
| Tangible fixed assets are stated at cost (or deemed cost) or valuation less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Cost includes costs directly attributable to making the asset capable of operating as intended. |

| 2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued |
| Stocks |
| Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value, after making due allowance for obsolete and slow-moving items. |
| Stock is stated at the lower of cost and estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell. Cost comprises direct materials and, where applicable, direct labour costs and those overheads that have been incurred in bringing the stocks to their present location and condition. |
| At each reporting date, an assessment is made for impairment. Any excess of the carrying amount of stocks over its estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell is recognised as an impairment loss in profit or loss. Reversals of impairment losses are also recognised in profit or loss. |
| Financial instruments |
| Cash and cash equivalents |
| Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and all deposits, and other short-term highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value. |
| Foreign currency transactions and balances. |
| Transactions in a foreign currency are initially recorded at an average standard exchange rate. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated into the respective financial currency of the entity at the rate prevailing on the reporting period date. |
| Debtors and creditors receivable/payable within one year. |
| Debtors and creditors with no stated interest rate and receivable or payable within one year are recorded at transaction price. Any losses arising from impairment are recognized in the profit and loss account in other administrative expenses. |
| Taxation |
| Taxation for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the Consolidated Income Statement, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity. |
| Current or deferred taxation assets and liabilities are not discounted. |
| Current tax is recognised at the amount of tax payable using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the statement of financial position date. |
| Deferred tax |
| Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed at the statement of financial position date. |
| Timing differences arise from the inclusion of income and expenses in tax assessments in periods different from those in which they are recognised in financial statements. Deferred tax is measured using tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the year end and that are expected to apply to the reversal of the timing difference. |
| Unrelieved tax losses and other deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits. |
| Hire purchase and leasing commitments |
| Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to profit or loss on a straight line basis over the period of the lease. |

| Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits |
| The group operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the group's pension scheme are charged to profit or loss in the period to which they relate. |
| Provisions |
| Provisions are recognised when the group has an obligation at the balance sheet date as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount can be reliably estimated. |
| Employee benefits |
| When employees have rendered service to the group, short term employee benefits to which the employees are entitled are recognised at the undiscounted amount expected to be paid in exchange for that service. |
| The group operates a defined contribution plan for the benefit of its employees. Contributions are expensed as they become payable. |
| Impairment |
| Assets not valued at fair value are reviewed for any indication that the asset may be impaired at each balance sheet date. If such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset, or the asset's cash generating unit, is estimated and compared to the carrying amount. Where the carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount, an impairment loss is recognised in profit and loss unless the asset is carried at a revalued amount where the impairment loss is a revaluation decrease. |
| Loans and borrowings |
| Loans and borrowings are initially recognised at the transaction price including transaction costs. Subsequently, they are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method, less impairment. If an arrangement constitutes a finance transaction it is measured at present value. |
| 3. | TURNOVER |
| The turnover and profit before taxation are attributable to the one principal activity of the group. |
