| REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS |
| FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024 |
| The directors present their report with the financial statements of the company and the group for the year ended 31 December 2024. |
| PRINCIPAL ACTIVITY |
| The principal activity of the group in the year under review was that of dealers in works of art. |
| REVIEW OF BUSINESS |
| The group's trading results improved compared to the previous year. The turnover increased by 14.7% from £3,752,603 in 2023 to £4,303,935 in the year, the cost of sales increased by 15.6% from £1,633,525 to £1,887,621, resulting in an decrease in gross profit margin from 56.5% to 56.1%. There was an increase in gross profit by 14.0% from £2,119,078 to £2,416,314 in the year. The group's overhead costs increased by 4.2% from £2,674,900 to £2,786,390 in the year resulting in a net loss £349,236 in the year compared with a loss of £537,221 in 2023. |
| The subsidiary company in Hong Kong, showed an decrease in turnover by 28.7% from £1,158,880 in 2023 to £826,105. The directors believe the Hong Kong subsidiary will increase its revenue in the future as the company continues to develop its presence in the Far East. The gallery continues to solidify its connection to the Asian art market. |
| Trading in North America improved compared with the previous year. The turnover increased by 50.5% in the year from £672,212 in 2023 to £1,011,618. Revenue is generated primarily from sales to US customers that have been nurtured in the last 3 decades both at the Gallery and through art fairs, alongside increasing online sales. The directors are looking at measures that might include a new but smaller physical space or viewing room, "pop up" spaces, collaborations with peer galleries and art fair participation to improve future performance. |
| DIVIDENDS |
| The directors do not recommend payment of a dividend for the year ended 31 December 2024 (2023: NIL). |

| 1. | STATUTORY INFORMATION |
| Angela Flowers Gallery Limited is a |
| 2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
| BASIS OF PREPARING THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
| BASIS OF CONSOLIDATION |
| The group financial statements consolidate the financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries for the year. |
| CRITICAL ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS AND KEY SOURCES OF ESTIMATION UNCERTAINTY |
| In preparing these financial statements, the directors have had to make the following judgements: |
| Determine whether leases entered into by the group as a lessee are operating or finance leases. These decisions depend on an assessment of whether the risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred from the lessor to the lessee on a lease by lease basis. |
| Determine whether there are indications of impairment of the group's tangible and intangible assets. Factors taken into consideration in reaching such a decision include the economic viability and expected future financial performance of the asset and where it is a component of a larger cash-generating unit, the viability and expected future performance of that unit. |
| Tangible fixed assets (see note 9) |
| Tangible fixed assets are depreciated over their useful lives taking into account residual values, where appropriate. The actual lives of the assets and residual values are assessed annually and may vary depending on the number of factors. In re-assessing asset lives, factors such as technological innovation, product life cycles and maintenance programmes are taken into account. Residual value assessments consider issues such as future market conditions, the remaining life of the asset and projected disposal values. |
| TANGIBLE FIXED ASSETS |
| Tangible fixed assets are initially recorded at cost, and are subsequently stated at cost less any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses |
| Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life:- |
| Freehold property | - 2% p.a. on cost of building. No depreciation is provided on the cost of freehold land. |
| Long leasehold property | - 2% p.a. on cost of building. No depreciation is provided on the cost of leasehold land. |
| Short leasehold property | - in equal annual amounts over the term of the lease |
| Improvements to property | - over the period of lease |
| Furniture, fittings and equipment | - 25% p.a. on reducing balance |
| Motor vehicles | - 25% p.a. on cost |

| 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. Net realisable value is arrived at by comparing cost against amount at which artwork could be sold. |
| FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS |
| The group's principal financial instruments comprise cash, short term deposits and trade creditors that arise directly from its operation. The main purpose of these financial instruments is to fund the group's operation as well as working capital, liquidity and invest surplus funds. |
| A financial asset or a financial liability is recognised only when the group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. |
| Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at the transaction price, unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where it is recognised at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar debt instrument. |
| Debt instruments are subsequently measured at amortised cost. Where contractual obligations of financial instruments are equivalent similar to debt instrument, those financial instruments are classed as financial liabilities. Financial liabilities are presented as such in the balance sheet. Finance costs and gains or losses relating to financial liabilities are included in the profit and loss account. |
| Financial assets that are measured at cost or amortised cost are reviewed for objective evidence of impairment at the end of each reporting date. If there is objective evidence of impairment, an impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss immediately. |
| For all equity instruments regardless of significance, and other financial assets that are individually significant, these are assessed individually for impairment. Other financial assets are either assessed individually or grouped on the basis of similar credit risk characteristics. |
| Any reversals of impairment are recognised in profit or loss immediately, to the extent that the reversal does not result in a carrying amount of the financial asset that exceeds what the carrying amount would have been had the impairment not previously been recognised. |
| TAXATION |
| The taxation expense represents the aggregate amount of current and deferred tax recognised in the reporting period. Tax is recognised in profit or loss, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity. In this case, tax is recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, respectively. |
| Current tax is recognised on taxable profit for the current and past periods. Current tax is measured at the amounts of tax expected to pay or recover using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date. |
| Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences at the reporting date. Unrelieved tax losses and other deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits. Deferred tax is measured using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date that are expected to apply to the reversal of the timing difference. |

| 2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued |
| FOREIGN CURRENCIES |
| Assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rates of exchange ruling at the balance sheet date. Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rate of exchange ruling at the date of transaction. Exchange differences are taken into account in arriving at the operating result. |
| PENSION COSTS AND OTHER POST-RETIREMENT BENEFITS |
| The group makes contributions to Personal Pension Policies for two Directors and operates a defined contribution pension scheme for other employees. Payments in respect of the pension plans are charged to profit and loss account in the period in which they are paid. The assets of the scheme are held separately from those of the group in an independently administered fund. |
| OPERATING LEASES |
| Rentals applicable to operating leases, where substantially all of the benefits and risks of ownership remain with the lessor, are charged to the profit and loss account on a straight line basis over the lease terms. |
| 3. | TURNOVER |
| Turnover represents the value, excluding value added tax, of goods and services supplied during the year. Revenue is recognised on the delivery of artwork to the customers. The Group engages in only one class of business, and the turnover arose from sales by the United Kingdom, United States of America and Hong Kong galleries and sales through Art Fairs, in the United Kingdom, Europe, United States of America and Hong Kong. |
