| Our business has faced many challenges from health strains, drop in rental revenue, drop in pharmacy footfall and government funding model which remains challenging. |
| Despite these barriers, we have wrote to improve the performance of the business, with interest of the community in mind. We continued to optimize our investment properties portfolio and overall business performance of the pharmacies. |

| GROUP STRATEGIC REPORT |
| FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025 |
| PRINCIPAL RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES |
| The group is subject to a number of key risks. Risks are formally reviewed by its directors' and appropriate processes are put in place to monitor an mitigate them, with a risk management framework developed by the group undertakings. |
| REGULATION AND GOVERNMENT |
| Group operates in a highly regulated markets, and changes to the requirements and non-compliance, could have a negative impact on business performance. |
| - Pharmacy licencing arrangements |
| - Drug reimbursement levels |
| - Prescription processing requirements |
| - Traceability and storage |
| - Minimum wage requirements |
| - Data or privacy regulations |
| - Landlord and tenants act |
| The directors have kept a close eye and on the latest developments and continued their monitoring to minimizes the business disruption. |
| COMPETITION AND CHANGES IN CONSUMER BEHAVIOUR |
| Government reductions in pharmacy reimbursement in England have increased competition. This is a sector wide issue and we are working with relevant associations and the NHS to find the solution. But since April 2025, NHS has offered better rates which have help the pharmacies to absorb the extra employment and related costs due to increase in NMW and employer's insurance. |
| Changes and trends in patient and consumer behaviour, our key strategy is to differentiate ourselves by providing services, expert advice and care to our customers and patients. |
| PROCUREMENT AND HIRING TALENT |
| The group has faced increased costs in procurement and hiring talent, but we are trying to mitigate it by robust management, purchasing processes and controls. |
| FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT |
| The group does not face an adverse credit or liquidity risk. Directors closely monitored all the credit risk and analytical procedures points to a stable business. |

| 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. |
| Company law requires the directors to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law the directors have elected to prepare the financial statements in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards and applicable law). 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; |
| - | 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 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. |
| The directors are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the corporate and financial information included on the company's website. |
| 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. |

| REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS |
| FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025 |
| AUDITORS |
| The auditors, Christiansons Ltd, will be proposed for re-appointment at the forthcoming Annual General Meeting. |
| ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD: |
| INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF |
| AVAS HOLDINGS LIMITED |
| Opinion |
| We have audited the financial statements of Avas Holdings Limited (the 'parent company') and its subsidiaries (the 'group') for the year ended 31 March 2025 which comprise the Consolidated Statement of 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 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 March 2025 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 Auditors' Report 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. |
| INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF |
| AVAS HOLDINGS 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, 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. |
| INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF |
| AVAS HOLDINGS LIMITED |
| 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 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. |
| The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below: |
| Irregularities, including fraud, represent instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We implement procedures aligned with our responsibilities, as outlined above, to detect material misstatements related to irregularities, including fraud. The effectiveness of our procedures in identifying such irregularities are detailed below. |
| We considered the nature of the company's industry and its control environment, and we reviewed the company’s policies and procedures concerning fraud and compliance with laws and regulations. Additionally, we consulted with management about their own identification and assessment of the risks associated with irregularities. |
| We gained an understanding of the legal and regulatory framework in which the company operates, identifying key laws and regulations that: |
| 1. Have a direct effect on the determination of material amounts and disclosures in the financial |
| statements, such as the UK Companies Act, pensions legislation, and tax legislation. |
| 2. Do not directly affect the financial statements but are fundamental to the company's ability to operate or to avoid significant penalties, such as regulatory solvency requirements and environmental regulations. |
| We also discussed with the audit engagement team, including relevant internal specialists such as those in tax, valuations, pensions, and IT, about the opportunities and incentives for fraud that may exist within the organization and how and where fraud could occur in the financial statements. |
| Because of the discussion, we identified the following high risk areas with the potential of significant high fraud risk. We have also described below our procedures to address these risk: |
| 1. Revenue recognition, NHS sales have been tested with counter sales and also NHS statements, 3rd party statements, have been reconciled to the bank receipts and with the accounting system to ensure that NHS revenue completely recognised into the account. |
| 2. As a norm for audits under ISAs (UK), we are also required to perform audit procedures to respond to the risk of management override. We responded by testing the appropriateness of the journal entries and other estimates in the financial statements, considering their potential bias and evaluated the business rational of significant transactions that are unusual or outside the normal course of the business. |
| We have also reviewed, the disclosures by testing the supporting documentation to assess the compliance with relevant laws and regulations which have a direct effect on the financial statements. |
| We have also performed analytical reviews alongside management enquiry to indemnify potential litigations or claims, and instance of non compliance with the laws and regulation. |
| 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. |

| Significant judgements and estimates |
| The preparation of the group undertakings financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumption that affect the reported amounts of revenue, expenses, assets and liabilities and the disclosures at the reporting period end date. 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. |
| However, uncertainty about these assumptions and estimates could result in outcomes that requires a material adjustment to the carrying amount of the asset or liability affected in to the further periods. |
| The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revision to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, on in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods. |

| 2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued |
| Investment property |
| Investment property is shown at most recent valuation. Any aggregate surplus or deficit arising from changes in fair value is recognised in profit or loss. |
| According to the Companies Act 2006 all assets should be depreciated but investment properties have increase in value and as per director to show a true and fair view the investment properties should not be depreciated. |
| Depreciation itself is one of the method to work out the changes in value of the assets over a period of time but assets values can be affected by multiple factors and to accounts those factors no depreciation has been provided for investment properties instead they have been shown at thire fair value. |
| This is a departure from Companies Act 2006 but it is required by the Financial Reporting Standard 102, which will take precedent over the Companies Act 2006 requirenments to show a true and fair view. |
| Stocks |
| Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value, after making due allowance for obsolete and slow moving items. |
| Taxation |
| Taxation for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income, 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. |
| 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. |
| Functional and presentation currency |
| The group undertakings, functional and presentational currency is GBP. |
