GROUP STRATEGIC REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024
The director presents his strategic report on Tiger Recruitment Limited and its subsidiary companies (the “Group”) for the period ended 31 December 2024. All narrative and quantitative information is unaudited unless stated otherwise.
The principal activity of the Group continues to be the provision of temporary and permanent staffing placements for support and specialist roles across a broad spectrum of disciplines in both the public and private sector.
Tiger Recruitment Ltd, being the parent company, is domiciled in the United Kingdom and the address of its registered office is 30 Orange Street, London, WC2H 7HF. Other members of the group are based in Zurich, Dubai and New York
General economic uncertainty has continued to impact on growth that was globally predicted following a return to traditional business models post the Coronavirus pandemic. International political uncertainty and continued violent conflicts around the globe has constrained growth in the Group, and throughout the sector. Though an increase in candidate and client confidence was seen in the second half of 2024, particularly in the UK, as the political environment settled following the general election, that confidence was subsequently shaken by international political changes and economic influences from abroad.
Over this period, the Group has experienced a decline in gross profit compared with the previous year. Recovery was visible by late 2024 and has continued to vary in degrees across the Group, with much success being gained by the Tiger Recruitment Gmbh in Switzerland, and in Europe. A continuation of the increase seen internally towards the end of the period, that has continued through to 2025, will mitigate the decline seen in 2024. Systems and controls are in place to manage and mitigate risks at all times. The Group monitors its potential risk exposure on an on going basis, including risk to reputation, which has a material impact on the continued success of the Group. Where relevant, some of the risks are monitored in real time. Where this is not relevant or practical, these are monitored on a daily, weekly or monthly basis. The following are the key risks impacting the Company: Market risk, Counterparty credit risk, Liquidity risk and Operational risk. The economic environment remains challenging, and those challenges could remain the short to medium term. The Group’s strategic team continues to take action to reduce the cost base to ensure improvement of profitability of the business.
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will fail to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Group seeks to manage financial risk by ensuring sufficient liquidity is available to meet foreseeable demands. It does this primarily by managing its cash balances and creditor days in an effective manner.

GROUP STRATEGIC REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024
The director believes the following to be the Group's financial key performance indicators:
The Group's results are in line with management expectations for the period. As the Group's relevant risks are managed at group level, the director believes that analysis using other key performance indicators for the Group in isolation is not necessary or appropriate for an understanding of its development, performance or market position.
Regulatory changes in employment and worker rights continue to be at the forefront of the political arena; the Employment Rights Bill is under review and further changes are anticipated as the Government continues to propose legislation on employment matters. Such regulation, influenced by modern, flexibly employment models, requires commitment to ensure compliance both internally and in client communication. Many companies are seeking to implement changes in advance of enactment of new legislation.
Through a robust compliance team, the Group is prepared to manage any increased compliance burden regulatory changes bring with them. Employment and worker rights are monitored globally to proactively ensure action and manage impact in advance of change, supporting our clients who seek to incorporate forthcoming legislation into their employment offerings.
The Director acts in a way that they consider, in good faith, to be most likely to promote the success of the Group for the benefit of its shareholders, employees and customers as a whole, in line with the Group’s BCorp Certification, and in so doing have regard, amongst other matters, to:
•the likely long term consequences of any decision;
• the interests of the Group’s employees; • the need to foster the Group’s business relationships with suppliers, customers and others; • the impact of the Group's operations on the community and the environment; • the desirability of the Group maintaining a reputation for high standards of business conduct; and • the need to act fairly as between shareholders, employees and customers of the company.
This report was approved by the board on 15 September 2025 and signed on its behalf.

DIRECTOR'S REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024
The recruitment sector is highly competitive with barriers to entry in the provision of permanent recruitment services being low. 2024 has seen continued investment being made in subsidiaries in Switzerland, the United States and the newly incorporated Tiger Recruitment DMCC. Such investment has had promising results and the international subsidiaries continue to develop and grow.
The reduction in Group turnover in 2024 is a reflection of the constraints applied by the Global economy. Whilst turnover and profits have reduced in 2024, the Group has continued to benefit from being unencumbered by debt and remains focused on remaining financially independent. Our client portfolio remains balanced, with equal investment being given to both temporary and permanent recruitment offerings. The introduction of new services, including the Group’s international Employer of Record services, investment in internal systems in 2024, partnered with financial independence, has contributed to the Groups’ continued resilience as the it move forward to 2025. An increased service offering, both in the UK and in the international members of the group, being licenced to offer services in Germany, along with continued development of systems, continue to protect the Group against further economic instability in the future and supports further growth.
The global HR team leads employee engagement from the Group’s UK office. We place the highest value in our Employees, we recognise their contribution to the success of the Group and their wellbeing is in the forefront of all our operating decisions. Clear communication channels are used to protect good working relationships throughout the group. Attention has been paid to ensure our Employees have a safe and comfortable workplace, with Employees encouraged to engage on office sustainability.
Our Employee engagement programs include our Group Diversity and Inclusion Committee, CSR committee, and BCorp Group, all led by Employees and facilitated by Senior Management. Involvement is encouraged by regular monthly committee meetings, events, and feedback on activities. Weekly briefings, local management meetings and quarterly Global live events are held to ensure all employees in the Group are involved in the Group’s activities, decision making and reward processes. Employees are encouraged to recognise anniversaries and performance at these events and to gain an understanding of the Group’s financial activities. Tiger Recruitment Ltd coordinates these activities on behalf of the Group. Tiger Recruitment GmbH, Tiger Recruitment DMCC and Tiger Recruitment Inc. recognise the importance of the Global HR strategy in ensuring Group employees are kept in the forefront of the decision-making process and invest equally in the programs provided by the Group’s HR team.
The Group continues to promote volunteer days with charity partners as the key element of our social responsibility efforts. All employees are given paid volunteer days to allow them to support the issues that matter most to them.
Charitable donations in 2024 are £1,037 (2023: £7,848)

TIGER RECRUITMENT LIMITED
DIRECTOR'S REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024
Credit risk and liquidity risk are at the centre of financial risks to the Group. The use of credit checks and robust credit control team minimise the risk and the impact of bad debts. Cash flow forecasting and intelligent performance analysis against agreed targets are used to manage liquidity risk.
There have been no significant events affecting the Group since the year end.
The auditors, Calders (1883) LLP, will be proposed for reappointment in accordance with section 485 of the Companies Act 2006.

TIGER RECRUITMENT LIMITED
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF TIGER RECRUITMENT LIMITED
We have audited the financial statements of TIGER RECRUITMENT LIMITED (the 'parent Company') and its subsidiaries (the 'Group') for the year ended 31 December 2024, which comprise the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income, the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position, the Company Statement of Financial Position, the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows, the Consolidated Statement of Changes in Equity, the Company Statement of Changes in Equity and the related notes, 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).
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 United Kingdom, including the Financial Reporting Council'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.
In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the director's 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 or 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 director with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF TIGER RECRUITMENT LIMITED (CONTINUED)
The other information comprises the information included in the Annual Report other than the financial statements and our Auditors' Report thereon. The director is 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.
In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:
∙the information given in the Group Strategic Report and the Director's Report for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and
∙the Group Strategic Report and the Director's Report have been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.
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 Director's Report.

TIGER RECRUITMENT LIMITED
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF TIGER RECRUITMENT LIMITED (CONTINUED)
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 Auditors' 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 Group 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:
Discussions were held with management with a view to identifying those laws and regulations that could be expected to have a material impact on the financial statements. During the engagement team briefing, the outcomes of these discussions and enquiries were shared with the team, as well as consideration as to where and how fraud may occur in the entity.
The following laws and regulations were identified as being of significance to the entity: • Those laws and regulations considered to have a direct effect on the financial statements include UK financial reporting standards, Company Law and Tax and Pensions legislation. • Those laws and regulations for which non-compliance may be fundamental to the operating aspects of the business include GDPR regulations and Employment regulations. Audit procedures undertaken in response to the potential risks relating to irregularities (which include fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations) comprised of inquiries of management as to whether the entity complies with such laws and regulations, enquiries with the same concerning any actual or potential litigation or claims, testing the appropriateness of entries in the nominal ledger, including journal entries, reviewing transactions around the end of the reporting period and the performance of analytical procedures to identify unexpected movements in account balances which may be indicative of fraud.

TIGER RECRUITMENT LIMITED
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF TIGER RECRUITMENT LIMITED (CONTINUED)
No instances of material non-compliance were identified. However, the likelihood of detecting irregularities, including fraud, is limited by the inherent difficulty in detecting irregularities, the effectiveness of the entity’s controls, and the nature, timing and extent of the audit procedures performed. Irregularities that result from fraud might be inherently more difficult to detect than irregularities that result from error. As explained above, there is an unavoidable risk that material misstatements may not be detected, even though the audit has been planned and performed in accordance with ISAs (UK).
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 Auditors' 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 an Auditors' Report 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.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024
Tiger Recruitment Ltd, is a private company limited by share capital, incorporated in England and Wales on 30 July 2001, registration number 04261107. The address of the registered office is Calder & Co, 30 Orange Street, London, United Kingdom, WC2H 7HF.
2.Accounting policies
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention unless otherwise specified within these accounting policies and in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland and the Companies Act 2006.
The preparation of financial statements in compliance with FRS 102 requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires Group management to exercise judgment in applying the Group's accounting policies (see note 3).
The Company has taken advantage of the exemption allowed under section 408 of the Companies Act 2006 and has not presented its own Statement of Comprehensive Income in these financial statements.
The following principal accounting policies have been applied:
The consolidated financial statements present the results of the Company and its own subsidiaries ("the Group") as if they form a single entity. Intercompany transactions and balances between group companies are therefore eliminated in full.
The consolidated financial statements incorporate the results of business combinations using the purchase method. In the Statement of financial position, the acquiree's identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities are initially recognised at their fair values at the acquisition date. The results of acquired operations are included in the Consolidated statement of comprehensive income from the date on which control is obtained. They are deconsolidated from the date control ceases.
The director considers that it is appropriate for the accounts to be prepared on a going concern basis for this period.

All intangible assets are considered to have a finite useful life. If a reliable estimate of the useful life cannot be made, the useful life shall not exceed ten years.
The estimated useful lives range as follows:
Depreciation is charged so as to allocate the cost of assets less their residual value over their estimated useful lives, using the straight-line method.
Depreciation is provided on the following basis:
The assets' residual values, useful lives and depreciation methods are reviewed, and adjusted prospectively if appropriate, or if there is an indication of a significant change since the last reporting date.
Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing the proceeds with the carrying amount and are recognised in profit or loss.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024
2.Accounting policies (continued)
The Group has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 “Basic Financial Instruments” of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments.
The Group has elected to apply the recognition and measurement provisions of IFRS 9 Financial Instruments (as adopted by the UK Endorsement Board) with the disclosure requirements of Sections 11 and 12 and the other presentation requirements of FRS 102.
Financial instruments are recognised in the Group's Statement of Financial Position when the Group becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with 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 trade and other debtors, cash and bank balances, are initially measured at their transaction price (adjusted for transaction costs except in the initial measurement of financial assets that are subsequently measured at fair value through profit and loss) and are subsequently carried at their amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any provision for impairment, 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.
Discounting is omitted where the effect of discounting is immaterial. The Group's cash and cash equivalents, trade and most other debtors due with the operating cycle fall into this category of financial instruments.
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 the deduction of all its liabilities.
Basic financial liabilities, which include trade and other creditors, bank loans, other loans and loans due to fellow group companies are initially measured at their transaction price (adjusting for transaction costs except in the initial measurement of financial liabilities that are subsequently measured at fair value through profit and loss). When this constitutes a financing transaction, whereby the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest, discounting is omitted where the effect of discounting is immaterial.
Debt instruments are subsequently carried at their amortised cost using the effective interest rate method.
Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods and services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. Trade creditors are classified as current liabilities if the payment is due within one year. If not, they represent non-current liabilities. Trade creditors are initially recognised at their transaction price and subsequently are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Discounting is omitted where the effect of discounting is immaterial.

These provisions are estimated based upon the expected values of the invoices which are issued and services received following the period end.
