STRATEGIC REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2025
The director presents the strategic report for the company's financial statements for year ended 31 August 2025.
The company continued to undertake activities of residential and nursing care throughout the period under review. It also holds investment properties that it rented during the year.
The director was satisfied with the trading results for the year. The company's turnover for the year is reported as £10,253,427 compared to £9,334,038 in 2024. This represents a 9.85% (2024:6.18%) increase, the company continues to show steady turnover. The operating profit for the year is reported at £1,600,913 (2024: £1,982,689) which represents on operating profit percent of 15.61% (2024: 21.24%), showing a decrease in operating profit and margin. The company is back to reporting a profit before tax, which this year is reported at £1,053,203 (2024: £1,398,228).There has been an overall increase in administration expenditure of £1,17,66 £296,326), a 17.72% increase and this relates to bad debt expenses, staff salaries and other operational issue. The company continued with its replacement repairs and renewals project replacing various items which are anticipated to be required to be replaced again in an average of 7.5 years. These costs have therefore been deferred and prepaid accordingly to reflect the period over which they are anticipated to wear and tear.
The company remains mindful of the risks an outbreak of any infection or virus could have on its business, and occupancy rates thereon, and continues to actively manage infection control procedures including continued staff training in this area. This, naturally, brings with it additional costs in relation to cleaning and staffing.
The director continues to respond to recruitment challenges in the labour market which can impact business activity. The company remains exposed to policy changes both in terms of the care home industry and the labour market. The director is not aware of any other fundamental risks and uncertainties and there are systems in place to ensure the risks identified are mitigated against. Development and performance The director hopes to continue to maintain the trading trend in coming years by maintain resident numbers to near full occupancy and continue with the use of own employed staff levels to avoid the use of agency staff in order to sustain the business.
The company's key performance indicators is turnover, which is driven by occupancy numbers, and operating profit which has been outlined above. For bank loan covenants in force at the reporting date, earnings before interest, tax, amortisation and after dividends paid is also a key performance indicator and the company's target for this is not less than £1,500,000. For the 2025 financial year end this was £ 1,688,316 (2024: £2,072,287).

In preparing these financial statements, the directors are required to:
∙select suitable accounting policies for the Company's financial statements and then apply them consistently;
∙make judgments and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
∙prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the Company will continue in business.
The directors are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the Company's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the Company and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the Company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

The directors have considered the company's financial position, future trading prospects and available financial resources and have concluded that the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. The directors have considered the company's ability to meet its obligations as they fall due and are satisfied that there are no material uncertainties related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the company's ability to continue as a going concern. Accordingly, the directors consider it appropriate to continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.

The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 ‘The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
In 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.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF WILTON HOUSE 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.

WILTON HOUSE LIMITED
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF WILTON HOUSE 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.
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:
Enquiries of management, concerning the Group's and company's 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. • Discussions among the. engagement team regarding how and where fraud might occur in the financial statements and any potential indicators of 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. • Performed analytical procedures to identify any unusual relationships. • Tested journal entries to identify unusual transactions. • We also obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory frameworks that the company operates in. As a result of performing the above, we did not identify any key audit matters related to the potential risk of fraud or non-compliance.
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 AUGUST 2025
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future eriods. Key sources of estimation uncertainty The estimates and assumptions which have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets and liabilities are as follows. Investment property valuations The investment properties are valued based on the directors opinion of the open market value as at the reporting date. This involves an estimation and subjective opinion based on general property prices in the area of the property and property indices. For the largest valued investment property a 2021 valuation report together with general market data for the area of the property was used to assist in determining the value at he reporting date. Investment properties have been valued on an assessed open market value of £3,905,000 (2024 £3,905,000) as at the reporting date of 31 August 2025. Provision for Bad debts In order to monitor potential losses, we perform ongoing credit evaluations of our customers' financial condition. An allowance for doubtful accounts is maintained for potential losses against trade receivables based upon the management's assessment of the expected collectability of all accounts receivable. The allowance for doubtful accounts is reviewed periodically to assess the adequacy of the allowance.
