STRATEGIC REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025
The directors present their strategic report for the period ended 31 March 2025.
Digitgain Limited is a dynamic and multifaceted company providing high-quality services in the childcare and event hosting sectors. The Company operates Jubilee Day Nursery and Jubilee Gems Nursery, focusing on outdoor learning for children aged three months to five years, Jubilee Jets, an action-packed holiday club for primary school children, as well as The Old Rectory, previously a premium wedding venue and now an events venue and coffee shop and play lounge for parents and children.
During the period, the Company continued to deliver excellent services across its business activities. The Company achieved a turnover of £4.8m, an increase from £4.3m in the previous year. Although the gross profit of the company reduced to £1.5m compared to £1.8m last year, the company was able to maintain control of their administrative expenditure and achieve a greater operating profit.
In the nursery care trade, there was a significant increase in direct wages and salaries. This increase was driven by the hiring of additional staff to maintain the quality of care with increasing enrolments and significant increases in average wages to attract and retain skilled staff in a competitive job market. The operating profit for the year was £0.5m, reflecting the company's resilience in managing costs and revenue growth. For The Old Rectory, notable increases were seen in consumables, which rose in line with the trade diversification.

STRATEGIC REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025
The Company operates in a challenging and competitive environment, where economic conditions and regulatory changes can significantly impact its operations. The following outlines the principal risks and uncertainties faced by the Company, along with the strategies employed to mitigate these risks.
Economic Downturn: The Company operates in a sector where consumer spending can be influenced by broader economic conditions. An economic downturn could reduce disposable income, affecting the demand for nursery, holiday club, coffee shop, and event hosting services. The Company maintains a diversified service portfolio to spread risk and sustain revenue streams. The directors carry out regular financial reviews and employ flexible pricing strategies to help manage economic fluctuations. Regulatory Changes: Changes in childcare and other relevant regulations could require significant adjustments in operations and compliance costs. The directors ensure that all relevant staff stay abreast of regulatory changes through continuous training and compliance audits. The Company works closely with industry bodies to ensure adherence to all guidelines. Operational Disruptions: Unforeseen events such as severe weather, health pandemics, or other disruptions could impact business operations, particularly affecting The Old Rectory's activities and Jubilee Jets’ holiday club activities. Comprehensive contingency plans are in place to handle operational disruptions, including alternative arrangements for scheduled events and robust health and safety protocols at all facilities. Financial Risks: The Company uses various financial instruments, including cash, trade debtors, and creditors that arise directly from its operations. The main risks arising from the company's financial instruments are liquidity risk and credit risk. Liquidity Risk: The Company seeks to manage financial risk by ensuring sufficient liquidity is available to meet foreseeable needs and to invest cash assets safely and profitably. Credit Risk: The Company's principal financial assets are cash and trade debtors. The principal credit risk lies with trade debtors. Credit limits are reviewed on a regular basis in conjunction with debt ageing and collection history. In conclusion, while the Company faces various risks and uncertainties, the directors have implemented robust risk management strategies to mitigate these risks and ensure business continuity. The board regularly reviews these risks and the effectiveness of the mitigation strategies to adapt to changing circumstances.

STRATEGIC REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025
The directors regularly review a variety of financial Key Performance Indicators (KPI's) to measure the performance and financial health of the company. For the year ended 31 March 2025, the directors report that:
Turnover: Turnover for the year increased by 12% to £4.8m (2024 - £4.3m). This growth was primarily driven by higher enrolments in the nurseries and more events hosted at The Old Rectory. Gross Profit: Gross profit for the period totalled £1.5m (2024 - £1.8m), reflecting a gross profit margin of 32.1% (2024 - 42.1%). While total gross profit remained largely comparable with the prior period, the reduction in gross profit margin can be largely attributed to the significant increase in Nursery Care wages, as in the Business Review. Profit Before Tax: Profit before tax increased to £0.5m (2024 - £0.3m). The increase was primarily due to the company maintaining control of their administrative expenditure. Net Current Assets: Net current assets increased to £1m (2024 - £0.6m). This improvement highlights the company’s effective management of working capital, maintaining a healthy balance between current assets and current liabilities. The growth in net current assets reflects strong cash flow management and a solid liquidity position, ensuring the company can meet its short-term obligations while investing in future growth.
This report was approved by the board and signed on its behalf.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF DIGITGAIN LIMITED
We have audited the financial statements of Digitgain Limited (the 'Company') for the year ended 31 March 2025, which comprise the Statement of Comprehensive Income, 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 DIGITGAIN 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.

DIGITGAIN LIMITED
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF DIGITGAIN 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.
The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities including fraud, is detailed below.
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:
•We obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory frameworks that are applicable to the
Company and determined that the most significant are those that relate to the reporting frameworks (FRS 102 and Companies Act 2006) and the relevant tax compliance regulations in the jurisdictions in which the Company operates; • We communicated relevant laws and regulations and potential fraud risks to all engagement team members and remained alert to any indications of fraud or non-compliance with laws and regulations throughout the audit; • We enquired of management and those charged with governance, concerning the Company's policies and procedures relating to: - the identification, evaluation and compliance with laws and regulations; and - the detection and response to the risks of fraud. • We enquired of management and those charged with governance, whether they were aware of any instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations or whether they had any knowledge of actual, suspected or alleged fraud; • In addition, we concluded that there are certain specific laws and regulations that may have an effect on the determination of amounts and disclosures in the financial statements and those laws and regulations relating to health and safety, employee matters, GDPR and OFSTED; • We corroborated the results of our enquires to relevant supporting documentation; • We assessed the susceptibility of the Company’s financial statements to material misstatement, including how fraud might occur and the risk of management override of controls. Audit procedures performed by the engagement team included: - evaluation of the programmes and controls established to address the risks related to irregularities and fraud; - testing journal entries, in particular journal entries relating to management estimates and entries determined to be large or relating to unusual transactions; - challenging assumptions and judgements made by management in its significant accounting estimates;
Page 9

||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
DIGITGAIN LIMITED
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF DIGITGAIN LIMITED (CONTINUED)
- identifying and testing related party transactions.
• These audit procedures were designed to provide reasonable assurance that the financial statements were free from fraud or error. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement due to fraud is higher than the risk of not detecting one resulting from error and detecting irregularities that result from fraud is inherently more difficult than detecting those that result from error, as fraud may involve collusion, deliberate concealment, forgery or intentional misrepresentations. Also, the further removed non-compliance with laws and regulations is from events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, the less likely we would become aware of it; • The engagement partner’s assessment of the appropriateness of the collective competence and capabilities of the engagement team included consideration of the engagement team's: - understanding of, and practical experience with audit engagements of a similar nature and complexity through appropriate training and participation; - knowledge of the industry in which the client operates; - understanding of the legal and regulatory requirements specific to the Company including: - the provisions of the applicable legislation; - the regulators' rules and related guidance, including guidance issued by relevant authorities that interprets those rules; - the applicable statutory provisions. • In assessing the potential risks of material misstatement, we obtained an understanding of: - the Company's operations, including the nature of its revenue sources and of its objectives and strategies to understand the classes of transactions, account balances, expected financial statement disclosures and business risks that may result in risks of material misstatement; - the applicable statutory provisions; - the Company's control environment, including the policies and procedures implemented to comply with the requirements of its regulator, the adequacy of procedures for authorisation of transactions, internal review procedures over the Company's compliance with regulatory requirements.
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.
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.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025
Digitgain Limited is a private company, limited by shares, domiciled in England and Wales, registration number 02251657. The registered office is Greenwood House, Greenwood Court, Skyliner Way, Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk, IP32 7GY. The principal place of business is Paddock View, Rectory Road, Padworth Common, Reading Berkshire, RG7 4JD.
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 judgement 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 11 Financial Instruments paragraphs 11.42, 11.44 to 11.45, 11.47, 11.48(a)(iii), 11.48(a)(iv), 11.48(b) and 11.48(c);
∙the requirements of Section 12 Other Financial Instruments paragraphs 12.26 to 12.27, 12.29(a), 12.29(b) and 12.29A;
∙the requirements of Section 33 Related Party Disclosures paragraph 33.7.
This information is included in the consolidated financial statements of Digitgain 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.
These financial statements therefore show the results and position of the Company, and not its Group.

The directors have prepared and reviewed trading projections for a period not less than 12 months
from the date of approving these financial statements. The directors have a reasonable expectation that the Group and the Company have adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future.

2.Accounting policies (continued)
Land is not depreciated. Depreciation on other assets is charged so as to allocate the cost of assets less their residual value over their estimated useful lives.
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.
The directors consider that the residual value of the freehold property is at least equal to its net book value at 31 March 2025 and its useful life is in excess of 50 years. As a result for this year depreciation would not be material and is therefore not charged in the profit and loss account.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025
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.
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.
Impairment of financial assets
At the end of each reporting period financial assets measured at amortised cost are assessed for objective evidence of impairment. If an asset is impaired the impairment loss is the difference between the carrying amount and the present value of the estimated cash flows discounted at the asset’s original effective interest rate. The impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss.

DIGITGAIN LIMITED
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025
2.Accounting policies (continued)
Financial assets are impaired when events, subsequent to their initial recognition, indicate the estimated future cash flows derived from the financial asset(s) have been adversely impacted. The impairment loss will be the difference between the current carrying amount and the present value of the future cash flows at the asset(s) original effective interest rate.
If there is a favourable change in relation to the events surrounding the impairment loss then the impairment can be reviewed for possible reversal. The reversal will not cause the current carrying amount to exceed the original carrying amount had the impairment not been recognised. The impairment reversal is recognised in the profit or loss.
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.
Derecognition of financial assets
Financial assets are derecognised when their contractual right to future cash flow expire, or are settled, or when the Company transfers the asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to another party. If significant risks and rewards of ownership are retained after the transfer to another party, then the Company will continue to recognise the value of the portion of the risks and rewards retained.
Derecognition of financial liabilities
Financial liabilities are derecognised when the Company's contractual obligations expire or are discharged or cancelled.

Fixed assets: Depreciation is charged with due consideration to the useful economic life and residual value of fixed assets and the continuing appropriateness of the applied policy is considered on an annual basis by the directors. Revaluation of freehold property is done with sufficient regularity to ensure the carrying amount does not materially differ from its fair value at the balance sheet date. Fair value is based on the open market value.
All turnover arose within the United Kingdom.
