GROUP STRATEGIC REPORT |
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 NOVEMBER 2023 |
The director presents his strategic report of the company and the group for the year ended 30 November 2023. |
REVIEW OF BUSINESS |
The director is of the opinion that the trading performance for the year to 30 November 2023 represented a fair result for the business whilst continuing to make changes and operating within a business sector that continued to be faced with ongoing challenges as a result of COVID. |
The business continued to be focused on delivering happiness through healthcare until its trading subsidiary, MYA Clinics Limited, went into administration on 22 October 2024. |
Year on year the business dynamic continued to change. |
November 2023 Net Revenue £13.4m November 2022 £10.6m Administrative expenses £5.3m (2022: £6.1m) Operating loss £2k, £2.9m loss in 2022. |
Any plans made going into 2023 continued to be affected by the COVID pandemic. This resulted in a reduction in activity for private healthcare compared to the pre-covid period. As a result, the business carried out further restructuring during 2023 in order to reduce overheads to further advance the flexible and dynamic core of the business. Savings in relation to fixed admin costs made in the year were more than £300k, because of the continued streamlining. |
Gross margin increased by 4 points when compared to the prior year, |
Whilst these changes have been made, working capital remained challenging, with minimal further progress made in respect to the CVA. |
HMRC had previously challenged management's judgement that the cosmetic and surgical procedures being carried out were exempt for VAT purposes and issued a levy in August 2023 that £9.4m was due on their sales. The director disagreed with this assessment and disputed the claim; however, this was a key reason for the trading subsidiary falling into administration in October 2024. |
The changes made during 2023 have continued to rebase the cost structure following the year end, so that the business could work towards delivering future profits. The shareholders have continued to support the business. |
However, as noted above, The Group's sole trading subsidiary, MYA Clinics Limited, went into administration on 22 October 2024. For that reason, these financial statements are prepared on a basis other than going concern. |
MYA GROUP LTD (REGISTERED NUMBER: 10787511) |
GROUP STRATEGIC REPORT |
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 NOVEMBER 2023 |
PRINCIPAL RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES |
Owing to the administration of MYA Clinics Limited on the 22 October 2024 the main risk to MYA Group Ltd is that the shareholders are not able to achieve a return on their investment, unless they can acquire further business to generate a return. |
Overall risk management |
The Director is of the opinion that as a result of the changes made to the cost base of the business that the Group is well placed to manage the principal risks and uncertainties should they arise. |
Key performance indicators |
The business had a series of actions that it continued to focus until the point the key trading subsidiary went into administration: |
a. Proportionate and flexible overheads. |
b. Improved asset utilisation. |
c. Improved volume. |
d. Improved communication and experience. |
e. Technology to be continuously developed and deployed to assist all of the above. |
Its key performance indicators included: |
· Level of enquiries |
· Initial consultation booking rate from enquiry |
· Surgeon booking and attendance rate |
· Cancellation rate |
· List utilisation time |
· Margin per procedure |
· Profitability |

REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR |
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 NOVEMBER 2023 |
The director presents her report with the financial statements of the company and the group for the year ended 30 November 2023. |
DIVIDENDS |
No dividends will be distributed for the year ended 30 November 2023. |
EVENTS SINCE THE END OF THE YEAR |
As a consequence of challenges faced by the business MYA Clinics Limited entered into administration on the 22 October 2024. On that date, MYA Clinics Limited, MYA Group Ltd and 121 Surgical Healthcare Ltd (now 121 Finance Limited) entered into a settlement agreement in relation to the intercompany debts existing at the time. As part of this agreement the amounts owed to MYA Group Ltd by MYA Clinics Ltd were waived aside from a £200,000 secured debt. However, in light of MYA Clinics Ltd still being in administration at the date of this report, this amount is not considered to be recoverable as at 30 November 2023. |
DIRECTORS |
Other changes in directors holding office are as follows: |
Qualifying third party indemnity provisions |
The group has made qualifying third party indemnity provisions for the benefit of its director during the year. These provisions remain in force at the reporting date. |
GOING CONCERN |
As at the balance sheet date, the Group had net current liabilities of £18,268,740 of which £8,958,347 related to shareholder loan notes, pension scheme loans, directors' loan and related party loans. On 22 October 2024 the group's sole trading subsidiary, MYA Clinics Ltd, entered administration. As a result, the directors do not consider the group to be a going concern because the group no longer has the means to repay its creditors. |
The shareholders hope to acquire other businesses in the future to attempt to generate a return on their original investment. |
As required by UK accounting standards, the directors have prepared the financial statements on the basis that the group is no longer a going concern. As a result of ceasing to apply the going concern basis, management have ensured that the balance sheet is held at its realisable value by impairing the value of the fixed assets, stock and debtors down to their recoverable amounts. |
FUTURE DEVELOPMENTS |
As a result, the business is reviewing potential future acquisitions in order to enable the shareholders of MYA Group Ltd to obtain a return on their original investment and repay any third-party debts. No such opportunities have arisen as at the date of this report. |
Price risk |
Price risk is driven by market competition. The Group's current pricing is set at a reasonable level in the market which the Directors are of an opinion carries limited risk other than when comparing how budget providers set expectations to some demographics. |
Credit risk |
Credit risk arises principally from receivables from customers. Exposure to credit risk is considered to be low owing to the nature of MYA's customers and the payment structure. |

REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR |
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 NOVEMBER 2023 |
STATEMENT OF DIRECTOR'S RESPONSIBILITIES |
The director is responsible for preparing the Group Strategic Report, the Report of the Director and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations. |
Company law requires the director to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law the director has 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 director must not approve the financial statements unless he is 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 director is 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 director is 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 him to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. He is 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. |
STATEMENT AS TO DISCLOSURE OF INFORMATION TO AUDITORS |
So far as the director is 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 he has taken all the steps that he ought to have taken as a director in order to make himself aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the group's auditors are aware of that information. |
AUDITORS |
The auditors, Xeinadin Audit Limited, will be proposed for re-appointment at the forthcoming Annual General Meeting. |
ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD: |
REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF |
MYA GROUP LTD |
Disclaimer of opinion |
| We were engaged to audit the consolidated financial statements of MYA Group Ltd (the Group), which comprise the consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 November 2023, the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, consolidated statement of changes in equity and consolidated statement of cash flows for the year then ended, and the notes to the consolidated 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). |
| We do not express an opinion on the accompanying financial statements of the Group. Because of the significance of the matter described in the basis for disclaimer of opinion section of our report, we have not been able to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence to provide a basis for an audit opinion on these consolidated financial statements of MYA Group Ltd for the year ended 30 November 2023. |
Basis for disclaimer of opinion |
|
Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006 |
Because of the significance of the matter described in the basis for disclaimer of opinion section of our report, we have been unable to form an opinion, whether based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit: |
- | the information given in the strategic report and directors’ report for the financial year forwhich the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements;and |
- | the strategic report and directors’ report have been prepared in accordance withapplicable legal requirements. |
REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF |
MYA GROUP LTD |
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 Director. |
Notwithstanding our disclaimer of an opinion on the financial statements, in the light of the knowledge and understanding of the company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit performed subject to the pervasive limitation described above, we have not identified material misstatements in the strategic report or the directors’ report. |
Arising from the limitation of our work referred to above: |
- | we have not obtained all the information and explanations that we considered necessaryfor the purpose of our audit; and |
- | we were unable to determine whether adequate accounting records have been kept. |
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion: |
- | returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or |
- | the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or |
- | certain disclosures of directors’ remuneration specified by law are not made. |
Responsibilities of director |
As explained more fully in the Statement of Director's Responsibilities set out on page five, the director is 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 director determines 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 director is 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 director either intends to liquidate the group or the parent company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so. |
REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF |
MYA GROUP LTD |
Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements |
Our responsibility is to conduct an audit of the company’s financial statements in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) and to issue an auditor’s report. |
However, because of the matter described in the basis for disclaimer of opinion section of our report, we were not able to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence to provide a basis for an audit opinion on these financial statements. |
We are independent of the company 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. |
Irregularities, including fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations, are inherent in business activities. We conducted our audit in accordance with ISAs (UK), which require us to obtain reasonable assurance that the consolidated financial statements taken as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. |
In identifying and assessing the risks of material misstatement due to irregularities, we obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory frameworks applicable to the Group and considered the susceptibility of the Group to material misstatement arising from fraud or non-compliance with laws and regulations. Our procedures included enquiries of management and those charged with governance and consideration of the controls in place to prevent and detect irregularities. |
However, because of the matters described in the Basis for Disclaimer of Opinion, including the appointment of administrators to the Group’s principal trading subsidiary and the resulting limitation on our access to accounting records, information and personnel, we were unable to perform all procedures we would ordinarily perform to identify and respond to the risks of irregularities, including fraud and breaches of laws and regulations. |
The primary responsibility for the prevention and detection of irregularities rests with the directors. Our responsibility is limited to identifying irregularities that have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements and that come to our attention during the course of our audit. |
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 Report of the Auditors. |
Use of our 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 a Report of the Auditors 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. |

2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued |
Financial instruments |
| The company has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 ‘Basic Financial Instruments’ and Section 12 ‘Other Financial Instruments Issues’ 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. |
| Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the financial statements, when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. |
| Basic financial assets |
| Basic financial assets, which include debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method 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. Financial assets classified as receivable within one year are not amortised. |
| Other financial assets |
| Other financial assets, including investments in equity instruments which are not subsidiaries, associates or joint ventures, are initially measured at fair value, which is normally the transaction price. Such assets are subsequently carried at fair value and the changes in fair value are recognised in profit or loss, except that investments in equity instruments that are not publicly traded and whose fair values cannot be measured reliably are measured at cost less impairment. |
| Impairment of financial assets |
| Financial assets, other than those held at fair value through profit and loss, are assessed for indicators of impairment at each reporting end date. |
| Financial assets are impaired where there is objective evidence that, as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the financial asset, the estimated future cash flows have been affected. 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. |
| If there is a decrease in the impairment loss arising from an event occurring after the impairment was recognised, the impairment is reversed. The reversal is such that the current carrying amount does not exceed what the carrying amount would have been, had the impairment not previously been recognised. The impairment reversal is recognised in profit or loss. |
| Derecognition of financial assets |
| Financial assets are derecognised only when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire or are settled, or when the company transfers the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to another entity, or if some significant risks and rewards of ownership are retained but control of the asset has transferred to another party that is able to sell the asset in its entirety to an unrelated third party. |
| Classification of 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 deducting all of its liabilities. |
| Basic financial liabilities |

2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued |
| Basic financial liabilities, including creditors, bank loans, loans from fellow group companies and preference shares that are classified as debt, are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortised. |
| Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method. |
| Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. Amounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade creditors are recognised initially at transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. |
| Deregonition of financial liabilities |
| Financial liabilities are derecognised when the company’s contractual obligations expire or are discharged or cancelled. |
Taxation |
| Taxation for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the Consolidated Income Statement, 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 balance sheet date. |
Deferred tax |
| Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed at the balance sheet 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. |
Hire purchase and leasing commitments |
| Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to profit or loss on a straight line basis over the period of the lease. |
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. The assets of the scheme are held separately from those of the group. |
The pension cost charge for the period represents contributions payable by the company to the scheme. Contributions are recognised as an expense in profit or loss as they become payable. |
At the balance sheet date, contributions due in respect of the period but not yet paid are included within creditors. |

Exceptional items |
Exceptional items are income or expenses that arise from events or transactions that fall outside the ordinary activities of the entity and are material by size or nature such that separate disclosure is necessary to explain the performance of the business for the period. Exceptional items are included within the relevant expense or income category in the Statement of Comprehensive Income but are disclosed separately either on the face of the Statement of Comprehensive Income or in the notes to the financial statements. |
Borrowing costs |
Borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset are capitalised as part of the cost of that asset, to the extent that the entity has elected to adopt this treatment. All other borrowing costs are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred. Borrowing costs comprise of Interest payable on loan notes, bearing interest at rates ranging from 0% to 8%. |
Loan notes are recognised initially at fair value, net of directly attributable transaction costs, and are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate (EIR) method. Where loan notes are issued at below market rates of interest (including 0% interest), an effective market rate of interest is imputed on initial recognition. The resulting finance cost is recognised in profit or loss over the term of the loan notes using the effective interest method. |

23. | CONTROLLING PARTY |
MYA Group Ltd is owned by a number of private shareholders and companies, none of whom own more than 35% of the issued share capital of the company. Accordingly, there is no parent entity nor ultimate controlling party. |
24. | FINANCIAL COMMITMENTS, GUARANTEES AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES |
The directors were aware that HMRC maintain that VAT is due on certain sales that are considered purely cosmetic and a levy of £9.4m was raised by HMRC on 17 August 2023 in respect of unpaid VAT on those sales. They are not aware of the circumstances, the nature of these sales, or the procedures to which these may relate. The directors believe that all the sales made by MYA Clinics Limited were in respect of procedures to treat medical disorders or to protect, maintain or restore health, and therefore all of their sales were exempt from VAT. This levy by HMRC has been the key reason for the key trading subsidiary, MYA Clinics Ltd, going into administration in October 2024. As a consequence of this and as at the date of these financial statements, the Group no longer controls or owns a trading subsidiary that provides any such procedures. However, as at the reporting date, the contingent liability remained. |
