STRATEGIC REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024
The Company continued to invest in opportunities aimed at delivering long term value for all stakeholders.
We believe our commitment to our customers and clients is what sets us apart, and we continue to work on improving our propositions and service as well as investing in our team.
The key performance indicators of the Company are turnover, gross profit margin and net assets. A brief analysis of these is shown below:
Treasury operations and financial instruments
The Company’s financial instruments principally comprise finance leases, trade debtors, trade creditors (which arise directly from its operations), cash and investments. The main risks arising from the Company's financial instruments are liquidity and credit risk. The Board reviews and agrees policies for managing each of these risks and they are summarised below. These policies have remained unchanged throughout the year. Liquidity Risk The Company has a strong operating cash inflow and manages its cash requirements in order to maximise interest income and minimise interest expense, whilst ensuring the Group has sufficient liquid resources to meet the operating need of the business. Credit Risk Investments of cash surpluses and borrowings are made through banks and companies which must fulfil credit rating criteria approved by the Board. Trade Debtors are reviewed by the Board on a regular basis and provision is made for doubtful debts where necessary.
This report was approved by the board on 22 September 2025 and signed on its behalf.

They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the Company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

UNION INCOME BENEFIT HOLDINGS LIMITED
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF UNION INCOME BENEFIT HOLDINGS LIMITED
We have audited the financial statements of Union Income Benefit Holdings Limited (the 'Company') for the year ended 31 December 2024, which comprise the Profit and Loss Account, the Balance Sheet, the 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 Company 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 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 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.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF UNION INCOME BENEFIT HOLDINGS LIMITED (CONTINUED)
The other information comprises the information included in the Annual Report other than the financial statements and our Auditors' 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.
In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:
∙the information given in the Strategic Report and the Directors' Report for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and
∙the Strategic Report and the Directors' Report have been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.
In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the Company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Strategic Report or the Directors' Report.

UNION INCOME BENEFIT HOLDINGS LIMITED
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF UNION INCOME BENEFIT HOLDINGS 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 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.
In order to identify and assess the risks of material misstatements, including fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations that could be expected to have a material impact on the financial statements, we have considered:
∙the results of our enquiries of management and those charged with governance of their assessment of the risks of fraud and irregularities;
∙the nature of the company, including its management structure and control systems (including the opportunity for management to override such controls);
∙management’s incentives and opportunities for fraudulent manipulation of the financial statements including the company’s remuneration and bonus policies and performance targets; and
∙the industry and environment in which it operates.
We also considered UK tax and pension legislation and laws and regulations relating to employment and the preparation and presentation of the financial statements such as the Companies Act 2006.
Based on this understanding we identified the following matters as being of significance to the entity:
∙laws and regulations considered to have a direct effect on the financial statements including UK financial reposting standards, FCA reporting requirments, Company Law, tax and pension legislation and distributable profits legislation;
∙the timing of the recognition of commercial income;
∙compliance with legislation relating to health and safety and local employment law;
∙management bias in selecting accounting policies and determining estimates;
∙inappropriate journal entries;
∙manipulation of specific performance measures to meet remuneration targets; and
∙recoverability of debtors.
We communicated the outcomes of these discussions and enquiries, as well as consideration as to where and how fraud may occur in the entity, to all engagement team members.
Audit procedures undertaken in response to the potential risks relating to irregularities (which include fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations) comprised:
∙enquiries of management and those charged with governance as to whether the entity complies with such laws and regulations;
∙enquiries with the same concerning any actual or potential litigation or claims;
∙discussion with the same regarding any known or suspected instances of non-compliance with laws and regulation and fraud;

UNION INCOME BENEFIT HOLDINGS LIMITED
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF UNION INCOME BENEFIT HOLDINGS LIMITED (CONTINUED)
∙reviewing FCA returns filings and complaints register;
∙assessment of matters reported to management and the result of the subsequent investigation;
∙obtaining an understanding of the relevant controls during the year;
∙obtaining an understanding of the policies and controls over the recognition of income and testing their implementation during the year;
∙review documentation relating to compliance with the regulations relating to Health and Safety and local employment law including certificates seen, insurance policy and health and safety statements;
∙challenging assumptions made by management in their specific accounting policies and estimates, in particular in relation to depreciation of tangible fixed assets, provision for clawback provisions;
∙identifying and testing journal entries, in particular any journal entries posted with unusual account combinations or crediting revenue or cash;
∙assessing the recovery of debtors in the period since the balance sheet date and challenging assumptions made by management regarding the recovery of balances which remain outstanding;
∙reviewing the financial statements for compliance with the relevant disclosure requirements;
∙performing analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected relationships or unexpected movements in account balances which may be indicative of fraud;
∙reviewing the minutes of Board meetings and correspondence with HMRC; and
∙evaluating the underlying business reasons for any unusual transactions.
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.

2.ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Other operating income contains commission refunds recognised to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Company and the refunds can be reliably measured. Commission refunds are measured as the fair value of the consideration received or receivable.
Goodwill
Goodwill represents the difference between amounts paid on the cost of a business combination and the acquirer’s interest in the fair value of its identifiable assets and liabilities of the acquiree at the date of acquisition. Subsequent to initial recognition, Goodwill is measured at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses. Goodwill is amortised on a straight line basis to the Profit and Loss Account over its useful economic life.
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 Company has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 “Basic Financial Instruments” of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments.
Financial instruments are recognised in the Company's Balance Sheet when the Company becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
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 Company's cash and cash equivalents, trade and most other debtors due with the operating cycle fall into this category of financial instruments.
Basic 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 Company after the deduction of all its liabilities.
Basic financial liabilities, which include trade and other creditors, bank loans and other loans 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.
Equity dividends received from fixed asset investments are recognised when they become legally payable. Interim equity dividends are recognised when paid. Final equity dividends are recognised when approved by the shareholders at an annual general meeting.

Provisions are measured as the best estimate of the amount required to settle the obligation, taking into account the related risks and uncertainties.
Group tax relief is surrendered to/ received from other Group companies for no consideration. In specific circumstances, individual Group companies may reach agreement between themselves to surrender and/or receive group relief for consideration within the tax on Profit on ordinary activities in the Statement of Comprehensive Income. Should group relief be surrendered to/ received from other group companies for consideration, the consideration paid will reflect, at a minimum, the corporation tax amounts surrendered and/ or received. These amounts are reported as expenses or benefits within the tax on profit/ (loss) on ordinary activities in the profit and loss account.
