GROUP 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 Group and Company was the marketing and sale of gut health products to the UK and European retail markets.
The directors aim to present a balanced and comprehensive review of the business during the year and its position as at the year end. The review is consistent with the size and nature of the business and is written in the context of the risks and uncertainties which are faced.
We are pleased with the continued solid trading performance in a challenging market environment in the year seeing turnover grow by 44% from £32.48m to £46.78m.
In FY25 we have returned to an EBITDA profit for the year, this despite continued significant investment in marketing and people in the year. This investment has again underpinned the growth achieved in the year.
We have maintained a net asset position of £4.9m (2024 - £5.4m) whilst generating cash inflows in the year and retaining a cash position in which the directors are comfortable gives them the ability to further invest in marketing and new products in order to grow the business.
The directors are optimistic about the future, the Group continues to grow its customer base and have plans for further new products and market development.
The management of the business and execution of its strategy are subject to a number of risks. Risks are formally reviewed by the Board of Directors and appropriate processes put in place to monitor and mitigate them.
Brand reputation
Our brand reputation is built on product quality and consumer loyalty. Any major event triggered by a serious food safety or other compliance issue could have a negative effect on our reputation or brand image. The Group has policies, processes and controls in place to prevent such events.
Commercial risk
The market in which the Group operates is highly competitive and therefore there is a risk of business loss. To mitigate against this risk the Board of Directors focus on value, service and quality of product to ensure high levels of customer retention. The Group also actively invests in its brand to ensure it remains relevant to customers and customers.
Raw materials and inflation
The Group is dependent on the sustainable supply of a number of raw materials and packaging materials. Any major events triggered by changes in the macro-economic environment could result in input price volatilities or capacity constraints of suppliers which would adversely impact the financial results of the Group. The Group has policies, procedures and controls in place to mitigate against such events. We work closely with all our major suppliers to ensure continuity of suppliers of quality products.

GROUP STRATEGIC REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025
Liquidity risk
The Group has cash reserves and forward forecasts future requirements on a regular basis to ensure we always have sufficient funding available when required.
Credit risk
The Group's principal financial assets are stock and trade debtors. The principal credit risks arises therefore from its trade debtors, the majority of which are of the highest rating (UK grocers). In order to manage credit risk, credit limits are set and reviewed using a combination of third party references and payment history. There continues to be significant work undertaken by the CCO, COO, CFO and credit control learn to reduce the exposure and risk to the business.
Our internal financial KPIs are turnover and EBITDA. Both are reported in the body of these statements. The Directors are pleased to note the considerable YOY improvement in both between FY24 and FY25. The Directors intend to continue this growth in FY26.
Modern Slavery - Management Statement
The Group is committed to preventing acts of modern slavery and human trafficking from occurring within its business and supply chain and imposes the same high standards on its suppliers.
We regularly evaluate the nature and extent of exposure to the risk of modern slavery occurring in our supply chain and mitigate such risk by making compliance to modern slavery policies and legislation a contractual obligation embedded in our commercial agreement with supplier and clients alike.
We ensure all our suppliers either adhere to our anti-slavery policy or have an anti-slavery policy applied within their organisation that is at least as stringent as our own. If we find evidence of a failure to comply with either our anti-slavery policy or supplier’s own policies, we have provisions in place to allow us to terminate our relationship with the offending supplier.
This statement is made in accordance with section 54(1) of the Modern Slavery Act 2015 and constitutes the Group’s slavery and human trafficking statement for the financial year ending 31 March 2025.
This report was approved by the board on 23 December 2025 and signed on its behalf.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF BIO-TIFUL DAIRY LIMITED
We have audited the financial statements of Bio-tiful Dairy Limited (the 'parent Company') and its subsidiaries (the 'Group') for the year ended 31 March 2025, which comprise the Consolidated Profit and Loss Account, 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.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF BIO-TIFUL DAIRY 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.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025
Bio-tiful Dairy Limited ('the Company') and its subsidiary undertaking ('the Group') are private companies, limited by shares. The Company is incorporated and domiciled in the United Kingdom with registered number 08181288. Bio-tiful Dairy EU Limited is incorporated and domiciled in the Republic of Ireland, as disclosed in Note 14. The address of the Company's registered office is disclosed on the Company information page.
The financial statements are prepared in Sterling (£), which is the functional currency of the Group, and rounded to the nearest pound.
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 judgement 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 Profit and Loss Account from the date on which control is obtained. They are deconsolidated from the date control ceases.

2.Accounting policies (continued)
The Group has made a profit in the year whilst it invested in brand awareness and new product growth, it has managed to increase its net asset position and net current asset position at the year end.
The Group continues to trade in line with expectations, since the year end and whilst there will be challenges over the coming year as a result of uncertainties in the economy, the directors consider the Group to be well placed to handle these challenges. Long term forecasts prepared by the directors show that the Group has the ability to continue to operate by using its working capital and generating positive cash flows from operations for a period of at least 12 months from the signing of these financial statements. The directors therefore consider it appropriate for the financial statements to be prepared on a going concern basis.
Consistent with standard industry practice, the Company has arrangements with its customers providing volume-related rebates, marketing and promotional funding contributions and discounts. These costs are recognised as a reduction to revenue as they are considered to be an adjustment to the selling price for the Company’s products. On occasions the payment of this support is subject to the Company’s customers performing specified actions or satisfying certain performance conditions associated with the purchase of products from the Company. These include achieving agreed purchase volume targets and providing promotion marketing materials/activities. Whilst there is no standard definition, these amounts payable to customers are generally termed as ‘customer deductions’. The Company recognises these costs as a deduction from revenue based upon the terms of the relevant arrangement in place. Amounts payable relating to customer deduction arrangements are recognised within trade creditors where there is no right of offset.

2.Accounting policies (continued)
Amortisation is recognised so to write off the cost of assets less their residual values over their useful lives on the following basis:
Computer software - 3 years
The Group adds to the carrying amount of an item of fixed assets the cost of replacing part of such an item when that cost is incurred, if the replacement part is expected to provide incremental future benefits to the Group. The carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognised. Repairs and maintenance are charged to profit or loss during the period in which they are incurred.
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.
At each balance sheet date, the Group reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible fixed assets to determine whether there is any indication that any items have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of an asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss, if any. Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverbale amount fo the asset, the Group estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.
If the recoverable amount of an asset is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset is reduced to its recoverable amount. The impairment loss is recognised as an expense immediately in the consolidated profit and loss account.

2.Accounting policies (continued)
Financial assets and liabilities are recognised when the Group become a party to the contractual provisions of the instruments.
All financial assets and liabilities are initially measured at transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost. If an arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, the instrument is measured at the present value of the future payments or receipts discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar debt instrument.
Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the spot exchange rates at the dates of the transactions.
At each period end foreign currency monetary items are translated using the closing rate. Non-monetary items measured at historical cost are translated using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of transactions and from the translation at period-end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognised in profit or loss account in the period in which they arise. On consolidation, the results of overseas operations are translated into Sterling at rates approximating to those ruling when the transactions took place. All assets and liabilities of overseas operations are translated at the rate ruling at the reporting date. Exchange differences arising on translating the opening net assets at opening rate and the results of overseas operations at actual rate are recognised in other comprehensive income.

2.Accounting policies (continued)
If it is not possible to distinguish between the research phase and the development phase of an internal project, the expenditure is treated as if it were all incurred in the research phase only. Provisions are charged as an expense to profit or loss in the year that the Group becomes aware of the obligation, and are measured at the best estimate at the balance sheet date of the expenditure required to settle the obligation, taking into account relevant risks and uncertainties. When payments are eventually made, they are charged to the provision carried in the Balance Sheet.

The fair value of the award also takes into account non-vesting conditions. These are either factors beyond the control of either party (such as a target based on an index) or factors which are within the control of one or other of the parties (such as the Group keeping the scheme open or the employee maintaining any contributions required by the scheme). Where the terms and conditions of options are modified before they vest, the increase in the fair value of the options, measured immediately before and after the modification, is also charged to profit or loss over the remaining vesting period. Where equity instruments are granted to persons other than employees, profit or loss is charged with fair value of goods and services received.

3.Judgements in applying accounting policies (continued)
The directors review the market value of and demand for the Group's stocks on a periodic basis to ensure the stock is recorded in the financial statements at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Any provision for impairment is recorded against the carrying value of the stocks. The directors use their knowledge of market conditions, historical experiences and estimates of future events to assess future demand for the Group's products and achievable selling prices. Trade debtors are recognised to the extent that they are judged recoverable. The directors' reviews are performed to estimate the level of reserves required for irrecoverable debt. Provisions are made specifically against invoices where recoverability is uncertain. Allowances are applied to debtors where events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts may not be recoverable. The directors specifically analyse historical bad debts, customer creditworthiness, current economic trends and changes in customer payment terms when making a judgemental to evaluate the adequacy of the provision for doubtful debts. Where the expectation is different from the original estimate, such difference will impact the carrying value of debtors and the charge in the consolidated profit and loss account. Taxation There are many transactions and calculations for which the ultimate tax determination is uncertain. The Group takes professional advice on its tax affairs and recognises liabilities for anticipated tax based on estimates of what taxation is likely to be due. Useful economic lives of tangible and intangible fixed assets Fixed assets are depreciated and amortised over their useful lives taking into account residual values, where appropriate. The actual lives of the assets are assessed annually and may vary depending on a number of factors. In re-assessing asset lives, factors such as technological innovation are taken into account. Residual value assessments consider issues such as future market conditions, the remaining life of the asset and projected disposal values. Share based payments Management estimated the share price at the date of issue using recent transactions and valuation techniques, as the shares are not publicly traded. The expected life of the options was assessed based on contractual terms and anticipated employee exercise behaviour. The annualised volatility assumption was derived from comparable listed companies in the same sector, adjusted for the company’s circumstances. The annual rate of dividends was assumed to be 0%, reflecting the company’s historical practice of not paying dividends and current expectations. The risk-free discount rate was based on UK government bond yields with maturities aligned to the expected life of the options. These assumptions directly affect the fair value measurement and the resulting share-based payment expense recognised in the financial statements, and changes in these estimates could materially impact the reported amounts.
