GROUP STRATEGIC REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025
The directors present the strategic report for the year ended 31 March 2025.
The principal activity of the Group during the year continued to be the provision of recruitment services across contract and permanent markets. The company operates from its London office and serves clients across multiple sectors.
The Group remains strategically positioned to scale and deliver significant shareholder value. Our objective is to grow headcount across both contract and permanent divisions to our office’s full capacity increasing Net Fee Income (NFI), NFI per person per month, and EBITDA. Revenue for the year decreased compared to the prior period due to a strategic restructure implemented by the company. During the year, the business consolidated its revenue streams, prioritising those with stronger market performance, higher margins, and greater potential for sustainable growth. This restructuring resulted in a temporary reduction in overall revenue, which was anticipated as part of the company’s long-term strategy to enhance profitability and operational efficiency.
Key achievements during the year:
∙Maintained performance in core markets.
∙Continued investment in technology and AI capabilities to enhance productivity.
∙Strengthened training and development programs to accelerate NFI generation.
The management of the business and the execution of the Group’s strategy are subject to a number of risks. The board formally reviews these risks and appropriate processes are put in place to monitor and mitigate them.
The Group operates in a very competitive market based around pricing and providing a high quality customer service. In order to mitigate this risk the Group monitors market prices on an ongoing basis, carrying out regular market research and striving to exceed customer and client expectations. Dependence on personnel The Group’s performance depends largely on the talent of staffing and recruitment professionals who generate fees from clients through placing candidates. The Group has retained its key personnel to date and continues to invest in its people aligned with its long-term strategy for growth. Cash requirements Business forecasts identifying, in particular, liquidity requirements are produced regularly. These are reviewed by the management team to ensure that sufficient headroom exists within the overall facilities for at least the next 12 months. Financial risk management The main financial risks arising from the Group’s activities are credit risk, interest rate risk and liquidity risk. These are monitored by the board of directors and were not considered to be significant at the balance sheet date. Credit risk The Group’s policy in terms of credit risk is to require rigorous credit checks on potential customers before sales

are made, and regular monitoring of the sales ledger in order to minimise the impact of bad debts.
Interest rate risk The Group is exposed to interest rate risk in respect of its invoice discounting facility with Barclays. The business does not seek to fix or hedge interest on this facility, as the Board considers the exposure to interest rate risk acceptable. Liquidity risk The Group actively forecasts, manages and reports upon its working capital requirements on a regular basis to ensure that it has sufficient funds for its operations.
The directors have monitors the performance of the Group by reference to certain key performance indicators.
Turnover - £43,286,874 (2024: £52,351,232) NFI (Gross profit) - £8,986,616 (2024: £11,479,247) NFI Margin (%) – 20.8% (2024: 21.9%) NFI is the ratio of the NFI to sales expressed as a percentage . Debtors days (days) – 33 (2024: 34). Debtor days are trade debtors divided by turnover multiplied by 365 days in the period.
The Group’s strategic goal is to:
∙Drive profitability per person through improved productivity and fee generation.
∙Hire and retain the best talent, reducing staff turnover and improving time-to-profit for new hires.
∙Leverage AI and automation to embed efficiency into workflows, reduce operational friction, and future-proof the business.
∙Maximise existing market penetration by scaling high-performing desks and redeploying resources from underperforming areas.
∙Expand into new markets and diversify revenue streams and reduce sector dependency.
This report was approved by the board and signed on its behalf.

In preparing these financial statements, the directors are required to:

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.

SOHO MANAGEMENT GROUP LIMITED
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF SOHO MANAGEMENT GROUP LIMITED
We have audited the financial statements of Soho Management Group Limited (the 'parent Company') and its subsidiaries (the 'Group') for the year ended 31 March 2025, which comprise the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income, the Consolidated Balance Sheet, the Company Balance Sheet, the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows, the Consolidated Statement of Changes in Equity, the Company 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 Group 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 Group's or 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.

SOHO MANAGEMENT GROUP LIMITED
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF SOHO MANAGEMENT GROUP 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 Group 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 Group 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 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 Directors' Report.

SOHO MANAGEMENT GROUP LIMITED
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF SOHO MANAGEMENT GROUP 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 Group 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:
∙the nature of the industry and sector, control environment and business performance including the remuneration incentives and pressures of key management;
∙the primary responsibility for the prevention and detection of fraud rests with both those charged with governance of the entity and management. We consider the results of our enquiries of management about their own identification and assessment of the risks of irregularities;
∙any matters we identified having obtained and reviewed the Group’s documentation of their policies and procedures relating to:
°identifying, evaluating and complying with laws and regulations and whether they were aware of any instances of non-compliance;
°detecting and responding to the risks of fraud and whether they have knowledge of any actual, suspected or alleged fraud;
°the internal controls established to mitigate risks of fraud or non-compliance with laws and regulations;
∙the matters discussed among the audit engagement team regarding how and where fraud might occur in the financial statements and any potential indicators of fraud.
As a result of these procedures, we considered the opportunities and incentives that may exist within the organisation for fraud and identified the greatest potential for fraud. In common with all audits under ISAs (UK), we are also required to perform specific procedures to respond to the risk of management override, including testing journals and evaluating whether there was evidence of bias by the directors that represented a risk of material misstatement due to fraud. We also obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory frameworks that the Group operates in, focusing on provisions of those laws and regulations that had a direct effect on the determination of material amounts and
Page 7
|
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
SOHO MANAGEMENT GROUP LIMITED
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF SOHO MANAGEMENT GROUP LIMITED (CONTINUED)
disclosures in the financial statements. We focused on laws and regulations that could give rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements, including, but not limited to, the Companies Act 2006 and relevant tax legislation.
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.
This report is made solely to the Company's members, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the Company's members those matters we are required to state to them in an Auditors' Report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the Company and the Company's members, as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025
Soho Management Group Limited is a private company limited by shares incorporated in England and Wales. The registered office is 19-20 Berners Street, Bischheim House, London, England, W1T 3NW.
The group consists of Soho Management Group Limited and its subsidiaries, The Oyster Partnership Limited and The House of Brown & Ginger Limited.
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 Group management to exercise judgment in applying the Group's accounting policies (see note 3).
The Company has taken advantage of the exemption allowed under section 408 of the Companies Act 2006 and has not presented its own Statement of Comprehensive Income in these financial statements.
The following principal accounting policies have been applied:
The consolidated financial statements present the results of the Company and its own subsidiaries ("the Group") as if they form a single entity. Intercompany transactions and balances between group companies are therefore eliminated in full.
The consolidated financial statements incorporate the results of business combinations using the purchase method. In the Balance Sheet, the acquiree's identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities are initially recognised at their fair values at the acquisition date. The results of acquired operations are included in the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income from the date on which control is obtained. They are deconsolidated from the date control ceases.
In accordance with the transitional exemption available in FRS 102, the Group has chosen not to retrospectively apply the standard to business combinations that occurred before the date of transition to FRS 102.

Transactions and balances
Revenue from permanent placements is recognised at the point in time when the candidate commences full-time employment with the client. Until this point, no revenue is recognised, as the company does not have an enforceable right to consideration. Revenue from the supply of temporary staff is recognised over time as the services are provided.

2.Accounting policies (continued)
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.
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 Group'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.
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.
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 Group after the deduction of all its liabilities.
Basic financial liabilities, which include trade and other creditors, bank loans, other loans and loans due to fellow group companies 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.

Included within bank loans are amounts secured by an all-monies fixed and floating charge over all of the company’s present and future assets. This security extends to all obligations and liabilities owed to the bank, including those arising from any additional facilities or amendments to existing facilities entered into after the original security was granted. Interest on these borrowings is charged on a floating rate basis, and the loans are due for repayment in August 2028.
During the year, the company breached both of the financial covenants set out in the agreement, therefore the full loan amount has been classified as due within one year.
