STRATEGIC REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025
The directors present their strategic report for the year ended 31 March 2025.
The principal activity of the company has been that of aircraft handling and maintenance support services.
The Statement of income and retained earnings is set out on page 8 of the financial statements. Turnover for the year totalled £26,372,551 a decrease of 26.6% on the prior year, delivering an operating loss of £25,614. At 31 March 2025 net assets were £9,568,112 (2024 - £9,569,658) with no dividend payment made in the fiscal year (2024 - £Nil). The Fixed Based Operations (FBO) delivered consistent execution on record turnover of £14,139,331, an increase of 37.2% on prior year. The aircraft maintenance division experienced continued losses underpinned by disrupted maintenance events due to availability of materials and personnel, delivering turnover of £12,233,320, a decrease of 9.0%.
As permitted by s.400 of the Companies Act 2006, the company has taken exemption from the requirement to prepare consolidated financial statements as it is a wholly owned subsidiary of its ultimate parent, Swan Investment Group Holdings Limited.
The company seeks to broaden its customer base and capabilities to limit its exposure to changes in demand. The principal challenge is to remain competitive in a global marketplace with continual increases to input costs. The prime objective is to focus upon maintenance quality and customer service and to achieve appropriate commercial returns from its future business. The company does not have significant exposure to exchange fluctuations, as the majority of its contracts pass such risk to its customers and its foreign currency holdings provide a natural hedge. The company retains a positive net cash position, with no debt, loans and immaterial asset finance which therefore has minimal exposure to fluctuations in interest rates which remain at historically low levels.
This report was approved by the board on 16 December 2025 and signed on its behalf.

DIRECTORS' REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025
The directors present their report and the financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2025.
The directors are responsible for preparing the Strategic report, the Directors' report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations.
In preparing these financial statements, the directors are required to:
∙select suitable accounting policies for the Company's financial statements and then apply them consistently;
∙make judgments and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
∙state whether applicable UK 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.
The directors are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the Company's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the Company and to 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 hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
The loss for the year, after taxation, amounted to £1,546 (2024 - profit £1,352,682).
The directors do not recommend the payment of any further dividend.
The directors who served during the year were:

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF INFLITE THE JET CENTRE LIMITED
We have audited the financial statements of Inflite The Jet Centre Limited (the 'Company') for the year ended 31 March 2025, which comprise the Statement of income and retained earnings, the Balance sheet 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).
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 INFLITE THE JET CENTRE 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.

INFLITE THE JET CENTRE LIMITED
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF INFLITE THE JET CENTRE 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:
Our approach to identifying and assessing the risks of material misstatement in respect of irregularities, including fraud and non-compliance with law and regulations, was as follows:
∙Ensuring that the engagement team collectively had the appropriate competence, capabilities and skills to identify non-compliance with applicable laws and regulations;
∙We identified the laws and regulations applicable to the Company through discussions with directors, and from our commercial knowledge and experience of the relevant sector;
∙The specific laws and regulations which we considered may have a direct material effect on the financial statements or the operations of the Company, are as follows - Companies Act 2006, FRS 102, Employment legislation, Tax legislation, and a number of industry specific laws and regulations imposed by civil.authorities and ISO regulators;
∙We assessed the extent of the compliance with the laws and regulations identified above through making enquiries of management and inspecting legal correspondence; and
∙Laws and regulations were communicated within the audit team at the planning meeting, and the audit 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 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;
∙Considering the internal controls in place to mitigate risks of fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations;
∙Reviewing the financial statements and testing the disclosures against supporting documentation;
∙Performing analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected trends or anomalies;
∙Inspecting and testing journal entries to identify unusual or unexpected transactions; and
∙Assessing whether judgement and assumptions made in determining significant accounting estimates were indicative of management bias.
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.

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 management to exercise judgment in applying the Company's accounting policies (see note 3).
The following principal accounting policies have been applied:
The Company has taken advantage of the following disclosure exemptions in preparing these financial statements, as permitted by the FRS 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland":
∙the requirements of Section 7 Statement of Cash Flows;
∙the requirements of Section 3 Financial Statement Presentation paragraph 3.17(d);
∙the requirements of Section 33 Related Party Disclosures paragraph 33.7.
This information is included in the consolidated financial statements of Swan Investments Group Holdings Limited as at 31 March 2025 and these financial statements may be obtained from Companies House.
The Company is a parent company that is also a subsidiary included in the consolidated financial statements of a larger group by a parent undertaking established under the law of any part of the United Kingdom and is therefore exempt from the requirement to prepare consolidated financial statements under section 400 of the Companies Act 2006.
The directors have prepared forecast information which considers domestic and foreign economic conidtions and their potential impact on the company. The forecasts consider a period of at least 12 months and indicate the the company has appropriate headroom in its available working capital.
The directors therefore have a reasonable expectation that the company possesses adequates resources going forward and have continued to adopt a going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.

At each reporting date the Company assesses whether there is any indication of impairment. If such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is determined which is the higher of its fair value less costs to sell and its value in use. An impairment loss is recognised where the carrying amount exceeds the recoverable amount.

2.Accounting policies (continued)
Provisions are measured as the best estimate of the amount required to settle the obligation, taking into account the related risks and uncertainties. Critical accounting estimates and assumptions The Directors make estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The resulting accounting estimates will, by definition, seldom equal the related actual results. The estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are addressed below. (a) Stock provision Provisions are made for items of stock which have become obsolete in the day to day running of the Company, namely if they have not been used for more than two years prior to the year end. The stock is reviewed on a regular basis by the directors and provisions are made when necessary. (b) Useful economic lives of tangible assets The annual depreciation charge for tangible assets is sensitive to changes in the estimated useful economic lives and residual values of the assets. The useful economic lives and residual values are reassessed annually. They are amended when necessary to reflect current estimates, based on technological advancement, future investments, economic utilisation and the physical condition of the assets. See note 6 for the carrying amount of the property, plant and equipment, and note 2.8 for the useful economic lives for each class of asset.
