Chief Executive's annual review

I am delighted to present the CEO report for the audited accounts of Sports Tours International for the financial year ending 31st March 2026. This year has been one of further significant growth, underpinned by a strong financial performance, strategic acquisitions, and exceptional progress across all areas of the business.

Financial Highlights

• Revenue Growth:
  The group delivered an exceptional increase in total revenue, rising to £72,864,701 — a substantial year-on-year uplift from £33,396,404 in FY25. This 118.2% increase reflects the successful execution of our strategic initiatives, the contribution of recent acquisitions, and strong organic performance across key markets.

• EBITDA Growth:
  We are proud to report that EBITDA has grown to £6,578,290 up from £3,361,160 in the previous year. This outstanding performance demonstrates both the strength of our revenue growth and continued improvements in operational efficiency and margin optimisation. This exceptional growth in EBITDA is a clear indicator of the underlying strength and scalability of our business model.

The Company's directors believe that analysis using key performance indicators for the Group is necessary for the development and performance assessment of the business of the Sports Tours International Group.

The key performance indicators used by the business are comparing Turnover, Operating profit and Earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA).

Strategic Milestones and Operational Review

Acquisition of Golfbreaks Ltd

On the 18th March 2026, we completed the acquisition of Golfbreaks Ltd, Europe’s leading golf travel specialist, arranging golf breaks, holidays, tournament experiences and bespoke travel for customers across the UK & Ireland, Scandinavia and the USA.

Golfbreaks has already proven to be a valuable addition to our portfolio. Its integration has progressed smoothly and the business is showing strong year-on-year growth, delivering both top-line revenue and margin enhancements. This acquisition represents an important strategic milestone, aligns perfectly with our strategy of expanding into adjacent sports travel verticals and fits well with our acquisition of Golf Holidays Direct Ltd in January 2025.

We expect a significant profit contribution from Golfbreaks in the next financial year, with the forward booking position looking particularly strong, providing confidence in sustained performance.

In August 2026 we have moved the Golf Holidays Direct business into our Golfbreaks Windsor office so that we can benefit from the superior IT systems which have already been developed by Golfbreaks

Destination Marathons - US Business Exceeding Expectations

Our operations in the United States, launched through the acquisition of an 80% stake in Destination Marathons LLC on the 1st April 2024, have continued to exceed expectations.

Sales in this region are substantially ahead of our original forecast and the US business has already achieved 99% of its FY27 budgeted bookings.

Sports Tours International Ltd increased its stake in Destination Marathons from 80% to 100% on the 3rd April 2025.

Club La Santa (CLS) Partnership

We are proud to have signed a 6-year strategic partnership with Club La Santa, Europe’s premier training resort. This long-term agreement cements our position as a market leader in active and wellness travel, unlocking exclusive access and promotional rights that will serve to drive incremental growth and brand prestige over the coming years.

As part of this partnership, we are investing considerable money in the development of a dedicated booking platform and website. This is a clear example of our continued focus on improving efficiency and customer service, ensuring that we deliver a seamless and premium experience for our clients.

We are also proud to report that, through this partnership, in FY27 we have achieved record sales revenue of £10.9m, a milestone that underlines the strength of our collaboration and the growing demand for Club La Santa experiences.

Operational Progress

• Continued Digital Optimisation:
  Following the success of our digital transformation in the UK and Ireland, we have now successfully rolled out our new Inspiretec booking system and website in the US and France. Early indications suggest we are on track to replicate the conversion and engagement improvements seen in our home markets, further enhancing operational efficiency and margin potential.
  In addition, we are on course to deliver a new CLS booking system and website in Q3,FY27 which will drive further improvements in conversion rates.

• Product Innovation:
  We continue to develop our product suite to meet evolving customer demand. Our half marathon-focused packages have gained strong traction and are bringing new participants into our ecosystem, many of whom are likely to graduate to our core full marathon offerings in time.

• Culture and People:
  As ever, our people remain the cornerstone of our success. We have maintained our commitment to staff well-being, flexible working, and development opportunities. This has supported strong employee engagement, talent retention, and organisational resilience.
  We moved into our new Birchwood Head Office in March 2026, investing a considerable amount of money to improve the working environment and give us increased office space available for future growth. This initiative is designed to enhance collaboration, well-being, and overall job satisfaction, and is intended to strengthen both staff retention and recruitment as we continue to grow.

• Global Partnerships:
  We are proud to announce that we are now an official partner of the Paris Marathon and the Cape Town Marathon, further strengthening our position in the global sports travel market and offering our customers even more world-class event experiences.

Outlook

Looking ahead, Sports Tours International is exceptionally well-positioned for continued growth. Our sales pipeline remains strong, and forward bookings for FY27 are already materially ahead of the same period last year.

For FY27, Sports Tours International (excluding Golf) has already achieved forward bookings of £40.6m representing 97.1% of our budget, giving us great confidence in the strength of our forward trading position.

In addition for FY27, our two Golf brands have already achieved forward bookings of £150.7m representing 83.3% of our budget, highlighting the success of their integration and the strength of our Golf growth trajectory.

We are also excited to announce that Cape Town will feature for the first time as a major marathon in our portfolio. This provides us with a new flagship event to promote, which will act as a strong driver of incremental growth in the coming years.

Furthermore, we continue to be acquisitive, actively looking for businesses that complement our existing portfolio in sports and travel, aligned with our long-term strategic objectives.

With three strategic acquisitions in the last three years now embedded, international expansion accelerating, and long-term partnerships secured, we are entering the next phase of our journey with confidence and clarity of purpose. We expect significant continued growth in revenue and EBITDA, building on the solid foundation laid this year.

Conclusion

The success of FY26 is a direct result of the dedication, adaptability, and strategic thinking demonstrated by our entire team. I would like to thank our staff, partners, and customers for their unwavering support. As we continue to scale and innovate, I am confident that Sports Tours International will remain a leader in the active and sports travel market.

Sincerely,

On behalf of the board

The directors present their annual report and financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2026.

The principal activity of the company and group continued to be the business of tour operators.

The results for the year are set out on page 11.

No ordinary dividends were paid. The directors do not recommend payment of a further dividend.

The directors who held office during the year and up to the date of signature of the financial statements were as follows:

In accordance with the company's articles, a resolution proposing to appoint auditors for the group will be put at a General Meeting.

Environmental matters

The Group will seek to minimise adverse impacts on the environment from its activities, whilst continuing to

address health, safety and economic issues. The Group has complied with all applicable legislation and

regulations.

Engagement with suppliers, customers and others

The directors are mindful of their statutory duty to act in the way they each consider, in good faith, would be

most likely to promote the success of the Group for the benefit of its members as a whole, as set out in our

s172(1) statement included in the Strategic Report. A consideration of the Group’s relationship with wider

stakeholders, including suppliers and customers, is also disclosed in the same statement.

Qualifying third-party indemnity provisions

Qualifying third party indemnity insurance is in place covering directors and officers.

Greenhouse gas emissions, energy consumption and energy efficiency action

The Group's greenhouse gas emissions and energy consumption for the year are 84 tCO2e and 413,503 kWh.

The Group has historically applied “GHG Reporting Protocol – Corporate Standard” methodology and used

Energyfit.uk energy and carbon reporting calculator to measure and report greenhouse gas emissions.

The Group is reporting as a large, unquoted group.

The operational control approach has been used to identify the boundaries, from which the Group has identified

three scopes for reporting:

- Scope 1 direct emissions issued from sources directly controlled by the company, such as stationary

combustion equipment for building heating

- Scope 2 indirect emissions from electricity production, or from imported heat or vapour consumed in the

buildings and equipment operation, provided by an external party

- Scope 3 other indirect emissions issued from company activities but controlled by external parties, principally

staff mileage claims

The Group remains committed to reducing its environmental impact through practical initiatives that improve

energy efficiency and encourage more sustainable ways of working. During the period, the Group continued to encourage recycling across its offices.

Together with reduced business travel, these initiatives contributed to lower Scope 2 electricity emissions and a

reduction in emissions associated with employee business mileage, whilst maintaining operational performance

and supporting the Group's wider sustainability objectives.

The directors are responsible for preparing the annual report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations.

United Kingdom company law requires the directors to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law, the directors have elected to prepare the group and parent company financial statements in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards and applicable law). Under company law, the directors must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the group and parent company, and of the profit or loss of the group for that period.

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

• select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;

• make judgements and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent;

• state whether applicable United Kingdom Accounting Standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; and

• prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the group and parent company will continue in business.

The directors are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the group’s and parent company’s transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the group and parent company, and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the group and parent company, and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

So far as each person who was a director at the date of approving this report is aware, there is no relevant audit information of which the auditor of the company is unaware. Additionally, the directors individually have taken all the necessary steps that they ought to have taken as directors in order to make themselves aware of all relevant audit information and to establish that the auditor of the company is aware of that information.

We have audited the financial statements of Sports Tours International Limited (the 'parent company') and its subsidiaries (the 'group') for the year ended 31 March 2026 which comprise the group statement of comprehensive income, the group balance sheet, the company balance sheet, the group statement of changes in equity, the company statement of changes in equity, the group statement of cash flows, the company statement of cash flows and notes to the financial statements, including 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).

In our opinion the financial statements:

• give a true and fair view of the state of the group's and the parent company's affairs as at 31 March 2026 and of the group's profit for the year then ended;

• have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and

• have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006.

Basis for opinion

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 Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the group and parent 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. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Conclusions relating to going concern

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 and 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.

Other information

The other information comprises the information included in the annual report other than the financial statements and our auditor's 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.

Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006

In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of our 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 group and the parent company and their environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the strategic report or the directors' report.

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:

• adequate accounting records have not been kept by the parent company, or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or

• the parent company financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or

• certain disclosures of directors' remuneration specified by law are not made; or

• we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit.

As explained more fully in the directors' responsibilities statement, the directors are 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 directors determine is 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 directors are responsible for assessing the group's and 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 directors either intend to liquidate the group or parent company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

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 auditor's 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.

As part of our planning process:

- We enquired of management the systems and controls the group has in place, the areas of the financial statements that are mostly susceptible to the risk of irregularities and fraud, and whether there was any known, suspected or alleged fraud. The group did not inform us of any known, suspected or alleged fraud.

- We obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory frameworks applicable to the group. We determined that the following were most relevant to the financial statements: Companies Act 2006 & FRS 102; and those which do not have a direct effect on the financial statements, but compliance with which may be fundamental to the group’s ability to operate, which include regulations relating to ABTA & ATOL.

- We considered the incentives and opportunities that exist in the group, including the extent of management bias, which present a potential for irregularities and fraud to be perpetuated, and tailored our risk assessment

accordingly.

- Using our knowledge of the group, together with the discussions held with the group at the planning stage, we formed a conclusion on the risk of misstatement due to irregularities including fraud and tailored our procedures according to this risk assessment.

The key procedures we undertook to detect irregularities including fraud during the course of the audit included:

- Identifying and testing journal entries and the overall accounting records, in particular those that were significant and unusual.

- Reviewing the financial statement disclosures and determining whether accounting policies have been appropriately applied.

- Reviewing and challenging the assumptions and judgements used by management in their significant accounting estimates, in particular in relation to deferred income, depreciation methods & cut-off.

- Assessing the extent of compliance, or lack of, with the relevant laws and regulations.

- Testing key revenue lines, in particular cut-off, for evidence of management bias.

- Performing a physical verification of key assets.

- Obtaining third-party confirmation of material bank balances.

- Documenting and verifying all significant related party balances and transactions.

There are inherent limitations in the audit procedures described above. The more removed that laws and regulations are from financial transactions, the less likely it is that we would become aware of non-compliance. Auditing standards also limit the audit procedures required to identify non-compliance with laws and regulations to enquiry of the directors and other management and the inspection of regulatory and legal correspondence, if any. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.

A further description of our responsibilities is available on the Financial Reporting Council’s website at: https://www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditor's report.

Use of our report

This report is made solely to the parent 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 parent company’s members those matters we are required to state to them in an auditor's 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 parent company and the parent company’s members as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

As permitted by section 408 of the Companies Act 2006, the company has not presented its own profit and loss account and related notes. The company’s profit for the year was £1,898,410 (2025 - £2,460,029 profit).

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the provisions relating to medium-sized companies.

Sports Tours International Limited (“the company”) is a private limited company domiciled and incorporated in England and Wales. The registered office is The Spectrum, 56/58 Benson Road, Birchwood, Warrington, Cheshire, WA3 7PQ.

The group consists of Sports Tours International Limited and all of its subsidiaries.

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with FRS 102 “The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland” (“FRS 102”) and the requirements of the Companies Act 2006.

The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the company. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, modified to include the revaluation of freehold properties and to include investment properties and certain financial instruments at fair value. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.

In the parent company financial statements, the cost of a business combination is the fair value at the acquisition date of the assets given, equity instruments issued and liabilities incurred or assumed, plus costs directly attributable to the business combination. The excess of the cost of a business combination over the fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities acquired is recognised as goodwill. The cost of the combination includes the estimated amount of contingent consideration that is probable and can be measured reliably, and is adjusted for changes in contingent consideration after the acquisition date. Provisional fair values recognised for business combinations in previous periods are adjusted retrospectively for final fair values determined in the 12 months following the acquisition date. Investments in subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates are accounted for at cost less impairment.

Deferred tax is recognised on differences between the value of assets (other than goodwill) and liabilities recognised in a business combination accounted for using the purchase method and the amounts that can be deducted or assessed for tax, considering the manner in which the carrying amount of the asset or liability is expected to be recovered or settled. The deferred tax recognised is adjusted against goodwill or negative goodwill.

The consolidated group financial statements consist of the financial statements of the parent company Sports Tours International Limited together with all entities controlled by the parent company (its subsidiaries) and the group’s share of its interests in joint ventures and associates.

All financial statements are made up to 31 March 2026. Where necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to bring the accounting policies used into line with those used by other members of the group.

All intra-group transactions, balances and unrealised gains on transactions between group companies are eliminated on consolidation. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of an impairment of the asset transferred.

Subsidiaries are consolidated in the group’s financial statements from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases.

At the time of approving the financial statements, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the group has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Management have reviewed available future projections and forecasts and are satisfied that sufficient cash facilities are secured to meet its working capital requirements for at least 12 months from the date of signing of these financial statements. Thus the directors continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.

Turnover represents the revenue from tours and other services supplied to customers in respect of

holidays, trips and tours, stated after the deduction of trade discounts.

Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised when the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods have passed to the buyer (usually on dispatch of the goods), the amount of revenue can be measured reliably, it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the entity and the costs incurred or to be incurred in respect of the transaction can be measured reliably.

Revenue is recognised in full at the point of travel, less a small element of non refundable deposits

paid which is recognised at the point of sale.

Revenue represents (a) the gross value (total transaction value) at which the services earned as a

tour operator have been sold to the customer and (b) rebates and overrides received from suppliers.

Revenue is recognised to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the

Group and the revenue can be reliably measured. Revenue is measured as the fair value of the

consideration received or receivable, excluding discounts and rebates.

Where the company acts as principal, turnover is stated at the contractual value of the services provided.

Research expenditure is written off against profits in the year in which it is incurred. In the research phase of an internal project it is not possible to demonstrate that the project will generate future economic benefits and hence all expenditure on research shall be recognised as an expense when it is incurred. Intangible assets are recognised from the development phase of a project if and only if certain specific criteria are met in order to demonstrate the asset will generate probable future economic benefits and that its cost can be reliably measured. The capitalised development costs are subsequently amortised on a straight-line basis over their useful economic lives, which range between 5 to 10 years.

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.

Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of acquisition of a business over the fair value of net assets acquired. It is initially recognised as an asset at cost and is subsequently measured at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses. Goodwill is considered to have a finite useful life and is amortised on a systematic basis over 10 years.

For the purposes of impairment testing, goodwill is allocated to the cash-generating units expected to benefit from the acquisition. Cash-generating units to which goodwill has been allocated are tested for impairment at least annually, or more frequently when there is an indication that the unit may be impaired. If the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit is less than the carrying amount of the unit, the impairment loss is allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the unit and then to the other assets of the unit pro-rata on the basis of the carrying amount of each asset in the unit.

Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of acquisition of unincorporated businesses over the fair value of net assets acquired. It is initially recognised as an asset at cost and is subsequently measured at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses. Goodwill is considered to have a finite useful life and is amortised on a systematic basis over its expected life, 10 years.

For the purposes of impairment testing, goodwill is allocated to the cash-generating units expected to benefit from the acquisition. Cash-generating units to which goodwill has been allocated are tested for impairment at least annually, or more frequently when there is an indication that the unit may be impaired.

If the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit is less than the carrying amount of the unit, the impairment loss is allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the unit and then to the other assets of the unit pro-rata on the basis of the carrying amount of each asset in the unit.

Amortisation is recognised so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets less their residual values over their useful lives on the following bases:

Tangible fixed assets are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost or valuation, net of depreciation and any impairment losses.

Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets less their residual values over their useful lives on the following bases:

The gain or loss arising on the disposal of an asset is determined as the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying value of the asset, and is recognised in the profit and loss account.

Equity investments are measured at fair value through profit or loss, except for those equity investments that are not publicly traded and whose fair value cannot otherwise be measured reliably, which are recognised at cost less impairment until a reliable measure of fair value becomes available.

In the parent company financial statements, investments in subsidiaries, associates and jointly controlled entities are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses.

A subsidiary is an entity controlled by the group. Control is the power to govern the financial and operating policies of the entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities.

At each reporting period end date, the group reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible and intangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any). Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the company estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. The carrying amount of the investments accounted for using the equity method is tested for impairment as a single asset. Any goodwill included in the carrying amount of the investment is not tested separately for impairment.

Recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset for which the estimates of future cash flows have not been adjusted. If the recoverable amount of an asset (or cash-generating unit) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset (or cash-generating unit) is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss, unless the relevant asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation decrease.

Recognised impairment losses are reversed if, and only if, the reasons for the impairment loss have ceased to apply. Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset (or cash-generating unit) is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but so that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset (or cash-generating unit) in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss, unless the relevant asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case the reversal of the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation increase.

Stocks held for distribution at no or nominal consideration are measured at the lower of replacement cost and cost, adjusted where applicable for any loss of service potential.

Cash and cash equivalents are basic financial assets and include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities.

The group 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 group's balance sheet when the group becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

Financial assets and liabilities are offset and 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, 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, 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.

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.

Financial assets are derecognised only when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire or are settled, or when the group 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.

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 deducting all of its liabilities.

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.

Financial liabilities are derecognised when the group's contractual obligations expire or are discharged or cancelled.

Equity instruments issued by the group are recorded at the proceeds received, net of transaction costs. Dividends payable on equity instruments are recognised as liabilities once they are no longer at the discretion of the group.

The tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax.

The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from net profit as reported in the profit and loss account because it excludes items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and it further excludes items that are never taxable or deductible. The group’s liability for current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting end date.

Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all timing differences and deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits. Such assets and liabilities are not recognised if the timing difference arises from goodwill or from the initial recognition of other assets and liabilities in a transaction that affects neither the tax profit nor the accounting profit.

The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each reporting end date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered. Deferred tax is calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period when the liability is settled or the asset is realised. Deferred tax is charged or credited in the profit and loss account, except when it relates to items charged or credited directly to equity, in which case the deferred tax is also dealt with in equity. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset if, and only if, there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets and liabilities and the deferred tax assets and liabilities relate to taxes levied by the same tax authority.

The costs of short-term employee benefits are recognised as a liability and an expense, unless those costs are required to be recognised as part of the cost of stock or fixed assets.

The cost of any unused holiday entitlement is recognised in the period in which the employee’s services are received.

Termination benefits are recognised immediately as an expense when the company is demonstrably committed to terminate the employment of an employee or to provide termination benefits.

Payments to defined contribution retirement benefit schemes are charged as an expense as they fall due.

At inception, the group assesses whether a contract is, or contains, a lease. A lease arises where the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. Control of the use of an asset occurs where the group has both the right to direct the use of the asset, and the right to obtain substantially all the economic benefits from that use.

Where a tangible asset is acquired through a lease, the group recognises a right-of-use asset and a lease liability at the lease commencement date. Right-of-use assets are included within the same line items on the Balance sheet as owned assets.

The right-of-use asset is initially measured at cost, which comprises the initial measurement of the lease liability adjusted for lease payments made at or before the commencement date less any lease incentives or grants received, plus initial direct costs and an estimate of the cost of obligations to dismantle, remove or restore the underlying asset and the site on which it is located.

The right-of-use asset is subsequently adjusted for remeasurements of the lease liability and applies the relevant cost model, fair value model or revaluation model as set out within the accounting policies for the applicable asset class. Where the cost model is applied, the asset is depreciated from the commencement date to the earlier of the end of the useful life of the right-of-use asset or the end of the lease term, and is periodically reduced by impairment losses, if any.

The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the lease payments that are unpaid at the commencement date, discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if that rate cannot be readily determined, the group's incremental borrowing rate or the group’s obtainable borrowing rate. Lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability comprise fixed payments less any lease incentives receivable, variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, amounts expected to be payable under residual value guarantees, the exercise price of any purchase options that the group is reasonably certain to exercise, and any penalties for early termination of a lease.

At each financial period end, the lease liability is adjusted to reflect payments made and interest accrued. Also, the lease liability is remeasured to reflect lease modifications and any changes to the factors considered at initial measurement, as set out above. When the lease liability is remeasured in this way, a corresponding adjustment is made to the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset, or recognised in profit or loss if the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset has been reduced to zero.

The group has elected not to recognise right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for short-term leases of machinery that have a lease term of 12 months or less, or for leases of low-value assets including IT equipment. The payments associated with these leases are recognised in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

In the comparative period, the group classified leases as finance leases whenever the terms of the lease transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to the lessees. All other leases were classified as operating leases. Assets held under finance leases were recognised as assets at the lower of the assets' fair value at the date of inception and the present value of the minimum lease payments. The related liability was included in the balance sheet as a finance lease obligation. Lease payments were treated as consisting of capital and interest elements and the interest was charged to profit or loss so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability. Rentals payable under operating leases, less any lease incentives received, were charged to profit or loss on a straight line basis over the term of the relevant lease except where another more systematic basis was more representative of the time pattern in which economic benefits from the leased asset were consumed.

Transactions in currencies other than pounds sterling are recorded at the rates of exchange prevailing at the dates of the transactions. At each reporting end date, monetary assets and liabilities that are denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing on the reporting end date. Gains and losses arising on translation in the period are included in profit or loss.

In the application of the group’s accounting policies, the directors are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

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 periods.

The following judgements (apart from those involving estimates) have had the most significant effect on amounts recognised in the financial statements.

Determination of whether there are indicators of impairment of the company's tangible and intangible fixed assets, including goodwill. Factors taken into consideration in reaching such a decision include the economic viability and expected future financial performance of the asset.

Determination as to whether the company is acting as principal or agent in relation to services provided. Factors taken into consideration in reaching such a decision include the evaluation of the risks and responsibilities the company is bearing in providing these services to the customer.

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.

Tangible and intangible fixed assets, including goodwill, are depreciated or amortised over their useful lives taking into account residual values, where appropriate. The actual lives of the assets and residual values are assessed annually and may vary depending on a number of factors. Residual value assessments consider issues such as future market conditions, the remaining life of the asset and projected disposal values.

The average monthly number of persons (including directors) employed by the group and company during the year was:

Their aggregate remuneration comprised:

The actual charge for the year can be reconciled to the expected charge for the year based on the profit or loss and the standard rate of tax as follows:

At 31 March 2026, Group capitalised software development costs of £785,506 (FY26: £nil) related to projects still in development and had not yet commenced amortisation.

In line with the Group's accounting policy, the Company and Group have, for the first time, recognised right-of-use assets in respect of its leased property under the revised Section 20 (Leases) of FRS 102. Right-of-use assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the lease term and the useful life of the underlying asset.

Details of the company's subsidiaries at 31 March 2026 are as follows:

At 31 March 2026, the Group had 56 foreign exchange forward contracts that it designated as cash flow hedges of highly probable foreign currency payments to suppliers for firm commitments in future periods. These contracts are entered into to minimise the Group's exposure to foreign exchange risk, between the prices agreed when a customer booking is made and when the supplier is paid.

The following table summarises the foreign currency cash flow hedging instruments in place as at 31 March 2026:

Rental deposits held by landlords as security for the use of offices across the Group, included within other debtors due after more than one year, totalled £5,660 (FY2025: £nil) for the Group and £Nil (FY2025: £Nil) for the parent Company.

Other borrowings includes £143,000 which represent bonds issued to investors in prior periods by Golfbreaks Bonds plc. The initial term of the first bond expired in July 2018 and these are now on an annual redemption basis.

The next redemption notification deadline is January 2027 for redemption in July 2027. Interest accrues at 7.5% or 10% per annum depending on the type of bond purchased, and is payable yearly on the anniversary of the issue of the bond. If the holder of the bond does not notify the Group of their wish to redeem the bond at least 6 months prior to the bond's redemption date (January), the bond automatically rolls over for a further year. The first bond is now not due for redemption until July 2027 (having received notice in January 2026 for redemptions in July 2026 amounting to £32,000) and has therefore been classified as being due after more than one year at the current balance sheet date.

The initial term of the second bond expired in November 2020 and these are now on an annual

redemption basis. The next redemption notification deadline is May 2026 for redemption in November 2026. Interest accrues at 7.5% per annum, and is payable every six months from the issue of the bond. Subsequent to the period end, and up to the redemption deadline in May 2026, the Group had received notice for redemptions totalling £111,000, as a result the majority of the bond has been rolled over and £111,000 has been classified, along with the £32,000 noted above, as due within one year (see note 22).

The Bonds are guaranteed by the Group.

In line with the Group's accounting policy, the Company and Group have, for the first time, recognised lease liabilities corresponding to right of use assets in respect of its leased property under the revised Section 20 (Leases) of FRS 102.
