GROUP STRATEGIC REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025

Introduction
 
The Directors present their annual report for the year ended 31st December 2025.

On 26 January 2026, the company changed its registered name from RTFH Limited to Rayburn Travel Group Limited.

Business review and principal activity
 
The Group has has continued to strengthen its position as a leading provider of educational, concert, and sports tours, delivering high quality travel experiences for schools, music ensembles, and sports teams. The business has operated within a dynamic travel environment during 2025, navigating ongoing industry challenges while maintaining its strong reputation for reliability and service excellence.

For the financial year ending 31 December 2025, the Group has maintained a solid performance, supported by sustained demand for educational travel, strong forward bookings, and continued focus on operational delivery. The Group has demonstrated resilience in responding to external pressures, including supplier instability and wider market uncertainties, while continuing to deliver tours successfully and maintain customer confidence.

The Group has continued to focus on disciplined pricing strategies and cost management, with an emphasis on protecting gross margins in an increasingly competitive and cost sensitive market. Improvements in financial oversight and operational planning have supported more consistent performance across tour programmes.

A key focus during the year has been strengthening operational resilience. The business has successfully managed disruption within the travel supply chain, particularly in the aviation sector, ensuring continuity of service and minimising the impact on customers. This reflects the strength of the Group's supplier relationships and its proactive approach to risk management.

Looking ahead, Rayburn Tours remains committed to enhancing its product offering, expanding its market reach, and improving operational efficiency through investment in systems and technology. With a strong underlying business model and clear strategic direction, the Group is well positioned for continued sustainable growth.

The Group continues to foster strong customer loyalty through high service standards and a clear focus on delivering value led travel experiences. Customer satisfaction remains a key priority, supported by ongoing investment in service delivery and product quality.

The Directors continue to take account of the impact of the Group’s operations on the community and the environment. Progress continues in areas such as sustainability, carbon awareness, and charitable engagement.

The Directors and Management Team operate the business in a responsible manner, maintaining high standards of business conduct and governance, consistent with expectations for a company operating within the educational travel sector.

GROUP STRATEGIC REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025

Principal risks and uncertainties

Economic volatility
Ongoing economic uncertainty within the UK and internationally may impact customer demand and cost structures. The Directors continue to monitor forward bookings and maintain a cautious but confident outlook.

Market Risk
The market remains competitive, with new entrants and pricing pressures. The Groupy mitigates this through strong customer service, differentiated product offerings, and established supplier relationships.

Supplier and Operational Risk
The business is exposed to disruption within the global travel supply chain, particularly within the aviation sector. This risk is mitigated through proactive supplier management and contingency planning.

Currency Risk
The Group remains exposed to foreign exchange movements. This is managed through regular monitoring and the use of hedging and pricing strategies to protect both the business and its customers.

Customer safeguarding and contractual obligations
The Group continues to operate in compliance with the requirements of regulatory bodies including the CAA, ABTA, ABTOT, the School Travel Forum, and the Council for Learning Outside the Classroom.

Financial Regulation
The Group continues to comply with all relevant regulatory requirements, including ATOL and bonding arrangements, ensuring protection for customers and maintaining industry accreditation.

Financial key performance indicators
 
The Directors continue to consider that the major KPI's used to monitor and review the financial performance of the business are turnover and gross profit margin. 
 
These are as follows:
 
Turnover: £30,918,383 (2024: £26,870,144)
 
Gross profit margin: 24.9% (2024: 22.8%)
 
These KPIs are supported by detailed internal reporting, enabling close monitoring of sales performance, operational efficiency, and margin by tour.
 

Other key performance indicators
 

Operational and administrative costs are closely monitored, enabling timely response to cost pressures and market changes.

The Group continues to invest in staff training and development, recognising that people are central to delivering high quality travel experiences. Ongoing commitment to training and professional development supports performance across all areas of the business.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF RAYBURN TRAVEL GROUP LIMITED (FORMERLY RTFH LIMITED)
 

Opinion


We have audited the financial statements of Rayburn Travel Group Limited (Formerly RTFH Limited) (the 'Parent Company') and its subsidiaries (the 'Group') for the year ended 31 December 2025, which comprise the Consolidated statement of comprehensive income, the , the Consolidated statement of financial position, the Company statement of financial position, 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 policiesThe 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 of the Parent Company's affairs as at 31 December 2025 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 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.


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 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.

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.

We have nothing to report in this regard.

In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:

the Group strategic report and the Directors' report have been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.

Responsibilities of directors
 

As explained more fully in the Directors' responsibilities statement set out on page 5, 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 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 directors either intend to liquidate the Group or the Parent Company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.


Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements
 

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an Auditors' report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these Group financial statements.


Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below:
 
Enquiry of management and those charged with governance around actual and potential litigation and claims;
Reviewing minutes of meetings of those charged with governance;
Performing audit work over the risk of management override of controls, including testing of journal entries and other adjustments for appropriateness, evaluating the business rationale of significant transactions outside the normal course of business and reviewing accounting estimates for bias;
Enquiry of management and those charged with governance to identify and instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations.
 
The potential effect of these laws and regulations on the financial statements varies considerably.

Firstly, the Group is subject to laws and regulations that directly affect the financial statements including financial reporting legislation (including related companies legislation), distributable profits legislation and taxation legislation and we assessed the extent of compliance with these laws and regulations as part of our procedures on the related financial statement items.

Secondly, the Group is subject to many other laws and regulations where the consequence of noncompliance could have a material effect on amounts or disclosures in the financial statements, for instance the imposition of fines or litigation or the loss of the Group's licence to operate. We identified the following areas as those most likely to have such an effect: ATOL and ABTOT compliance recognising the nature of the Group's activities. Auditing standards limit the required audit procedures to identify non-compliance with these laws and regulations to enquiry of the directors and other management and inspection of regulatory and legal correspondence, if any.

Therefore, if a breach of operational regulations is not disclosed to us or evident from relevant correspondence, an audit will not detect that breach.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF RAYBURN TRAVEL GROUP LIMITED (FORMERLY RTFH LIMITED) (CONTINUED)



Because of the inherent limitations of an audit, there is a risk that we will not detect all irregularities, including those leading to a material misstatement in the financial statements or non-compliance with regulation. This risk increases the more that compliance with a law or regulation is removed from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, as we will be less likely to become aware of instances of non-compliance.

The risk is also greater regarding irregularities occurring due to fraud rather than error, as fraud involves intentional concealment, forgery, collusion, omission or misrepresentation.


A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council's website at: www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our Auditors' report.


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 2006Our 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 DECEMBER 2025

1.


General information

Rayburn Travel Group Limited is a private company limited by shares incorporated in England and Wales, United Kingdom.

On 26 January 2026, the company changed its registered name from RTFH Limited to Rayburn Travel Group Limited. This change does not affect the legal status of the company, which continues as the same legal entity.

The registered address of the company is Rayburn House, Brunel Parkway, Pride Park, Derby, United Kingdom, DE24 8HR.

The principal activity continues to be that of a Tour Operator. 

2.Accounting policies

 
2.1

Basis of preparation of financial statements

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention unless otherwise specified within these accounting policies and in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland and the Companies Act 2006.

The preparation of financial statements in compliance with FRS 102 requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires Group management to exercise judgment in applying the Group's accounting policies (see note 3).

The Company has taken advantage of the exemption allowed under section 408 of the Companies Act 2006 and has not presented its own Statement of comprehensive income in these financial statements.

The following principal accounting policies have been applied:

 
2.2

Basis of consolidation

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 Statement of financial position, the acquiree's identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities are initially recognised at their fair values at the acquisition date. The results of acquired operations are included in the Consolidated statement of comprehensive income from the date on which control is obtained. They are deconsolidated from the date control ceases.

Section 479A subsidiary companies audit exemption

The following entities are exempt from audit of individual entity financial statements for the financial year ended 31 December 2025 by virtue of Section 479a of the Companies Act 2006 relating to subsidiary entities:
 
Rayburn Tours Transport Services Limited.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025

2.Accounting policies (continued)

  
2.3

Exemptions for qualifying entities under FRS 102

Rayburn Travel Group Limited, as an individual entity, meets the definition of a qualifying entity per FRS 102 and has taken advantage of the exemption available in paragraph 1.12 of FRS 102 from presenting a company only statement of cash flows. These consolidated financial statements include a consolidated statement of cash flows which include the cash flows of Rayburn Travel Group Limited.

 
2.4

Foreign currency translation

Functional and presentation currency

The Group's functional and presentational currency is GBP.

Transactions and balances

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 and non-monetary items measured at fair value are measured using the exchange rate when fair value was determined.

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 except when deferred in other comprehensive income as qualifying cash flow hedges.

Foreign exchange gains and losses that relate to borrowings and cash and cash equivalents are presented in the Consolidated statement of comprehensive income within 'finance income or costs'. All other foreign exchange gains and losses are presented in profit or loss within 'other operating income'.

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.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025

2.Accounting policies (continued)

 
2.5

Revenue recognition

Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable and represents the amount receivable for the provision of goods and services throughout the year, net of returns, discounts and rebates allowed by the Group and value added taxes. 

The Group recognises revenue when (a) a tour departs; (b) the significant risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred to the buyer; (c) the Group retains no continuing involvement or control over the services; (d) the amount of revenue can be measured reliably; (e) it is probable that future economic benefits will flow to the entity and (f) when the specific criteria relating to each of the Group's sales channels have  been met. 

Deposits received at the period end relating to tours commencing after the period end are deferred and are included within deferred income. Where tours depart after the year end but where payments have been made in advance to suppliers are included within prepayments. 

 
2.6

Operating leases: the Group as lessee

Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

 
2.7

Interest income

Interest income is recognised in profit or loss using the effective interest method.

 
2.8

Finance costs

Finance costs are charged to profit or loss over the term of the debt using the effective interest method so that the amount charged is at a constant rate on the carrying amount. Issue costs are initially recognised as a reduction in the proceeds of the associated capital instrument.

 
2.9

Borrowing costs

All borrowing costs are recognised in profit or loss in the year in which they are incurred.

 
2.10

Pensions

Defined contribution pension plan

The Group operates a defined contribution plan for its employees. A defined contribution plan is a pension plan under which the Group pays fixed contributions into a separate entity. Once the contributions have been paid the Group has no further payment obligations.

The contributions are recognised as an expense in profit or loss when they fall due. Amounts not paid are shown in accruals as a liability in the Statement of financial position. The assets of the plan are held separately from the Group in independently administered funds.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025

2.Accounting policies (continued)

 
2.11

Current and deferred taxation

The tax expense for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in profit or loss except that a charge attributable to an item of income and expense recognised as other comprehensive income or to an item recognised directly in equity is also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity respectively.

The current income tax charge is calculated on the basis of tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date in the countries where the Company and the Group operate and generate income.

Deferred tax balances are recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed by the reporting date, except that:
The recognition of deferred tax assets is limited to the extent that it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits;
Any deferred tax balances are reversed if and when all conditions for retaining associated tax allowances have been met; and
Where they relate to timing differences in respect of interests in subsidiaries, associates, branches and joint ventures and the Group can control the reversal of the timing differences and such reversal is not considered probable in the foreseeable future.

Deferred tax balances are not recognised in respect of permanent differences except in respect of business combinations, when deferred tax is recognised on the differences between the fair values of assets acquired and the future tax deductions available for them and the differences between the fair values of liabilities acquired and the amount that will be assessed for tax. Deferred tax is determined using tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025

2.Accounting policies (continued)

 
2.12

Intangible assets

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the difference between amounts paid on the cost of a business combination and the acquirer’s interest in the fair value of the Group's share of its identifiable assets and liabilities of the acquiree at the date of acquisition. Subsequent to initial recognition, goodwill is measured at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses. Goodwill is amortised on a straight-line basis to the Consolidated statement of comprehensive income over its useful economic life.

 The directors have determined that the useful economic life of goodwill is 20 years due to the long-term nature of customer relationships, established supplier networks and the enduring value of the brand.

Other intangible assets

Intangible assets are initially recognised at cost. After recognition, under the cost model, intangible assets are measured at cost less any accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses.

All intangible assets are considered to have a finite useful life. If a reliable estimate of the useful life cannot be made, the useful life shall not exceed ten years.

 
2.13

Tangible fixed assets

Tangible fixed assets under the cost model are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management.

Depreciation is charged so as to allocate the cost of assets less their residual value over their estimated useful lives, methods detailed below .

Depreciation is provided on the following basis:

Long-term leasehold property
-
2 - 4% straight line
Motor vehicles
-
25% reducing balance
Fixtures and fittings
-
15 - 40% reducing balance
Computer equipment
-
33.33% straight line

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.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025

2.Accounting policies (continued)

 
2.14

Investment property

Investment property is carried at fair value determined annually by the directors and where required by external valuers. Where they are valued by the directors, the valuation is derived from the current market rents and investment property yields for comparable real estate, adjusted if necessary for any difference in the nature, location or condition of the specific asset. No depreciation is provided. Changes in fair value are recognised in profit or loss.

 
2.15

Valuation of investments

Investments in subsidiaries are measured at cost less accumulated impairment.

 
2.16

Stocks

Stocks are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value, being the estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell. Cost is based on the cost of purchase on a first in, first out basis. Work in progress and finished goods include labour and attributable overheads.

At each reporting date, stocks are assessed for impairment. If stock is impaired, the carrying amount is reduced to its selling price less costs to complete and sell. The impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss.

  
2.17

Loan notes

Loan notes, which are basic financial instruments, are initially recorded at the present value of future payments discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar loan. Adjustments for present value are recognised within the capital contribution reserve. Subsequently, they are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Notional interest is recognised within the Income Statement when it is charged and subsequently transferred to the capital contribution reserve. Loan notes that are receivable within one year are not discounted. 

 
2.18

Debtors

Short-term debtors are measured at transaction price, less any impairment. Loans receivable are measured initially at fair value, net of transaction costs, and are measured subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment.

 
2.19

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash is represented by cash in hand and deposits with financial institutions repayable without penalty on notice of not more than 24 hours. Cash equivalents are highly liquid investments that mature in no more than three months from the date of acquisition and that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash with insignificant risk of change in value.

In the Consolidated statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents are shown net of bank overdrafts that are repayable on demand and form an integral part of the Group's cash management.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025

2.Accounting policies (continued)

 
2.20

Creditors

Short-term creditors are measured at the transaction price. Other financial liabilities, including bank loans, are measured initially at fair value, net of transaction costs, and are measured subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

 
2.21

Provisions for liabilities

Provisions are recognised when an event has taken place that gives rise to a legal or constructive obligation, a transfer of economic benefits is probable and a reliable estimate can be made.

Provisions are measured as the best estimate of the amount required to settle the obligation, taking into account the related risks and uncertainties.
 
Increases in provisions are generally charged as an expense to profit or loss.

 
2.22

Financial instruments

The Group only enters into basic financial instrument transactions that result in the recognition of financial assets and liabilities like trade and other debtors and creditors, loans from banks and other third parties, loans to related parties and investments in ordinary shares.

Financial assets that are measured at cost and amortised cost are assessed at the end of each reporting period for objective evidence of impairment. If objective evidence of impairment is found, an impairment loss is recognised in the Consolidated statement of comprehensive income. 

Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount reported in the Statement of financial position when there is an 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.

Derivatives, including interest rate swaps and forward foreign exchange contracts, are not basic financial instruments. Derivatives are initially recognised at fair value on the date a derivative contract is entered into and are subsequently re-measured at their fair value. Changes in the fair value of derivatives are recognised in profit or loss in finance costs or income as appropriate. The company does not currently apply hedge accounting for interest rate and foreign exchange  derivatives.

Judgments in applying accounting policies and key sources of estimation uncertainty

The Group makes estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The resulting accounting estimates will, by definition, seldom equal the related actual results. The estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are addressed below;

(i) Useful economic lives of tangible assets and intangible assets:
The annual depreciation charge of tangible and intangible assets is sensitive to changes in the estimated useful economic lives and residual values of the assets. The useful economic lives and residual values are re-assessed annually. They are amended when necessary to reflect current estimates, based on technological advancement, future investments, economic utilisation and the physical condition of the assets.

(ii) Valuation of investment properties (freehold properties):
The Group measures investment properties at fair value at each reporting date. In determining fair value, the directors consider market conditions and comparable market evidence, including rental yields, location and condition of the properties. The valuation therefore involves significant judgement and estimates, and changes in market assumptions may impact the carrying value of the properties.

(iii) Valuation of leasehold properties:
The Group shows leasehold properties at their fair value. The directors assess the market conditions affecting such properties when assessing the fair value at each period end.

(iv) Derivatives - Forward Currency Contracts:
The directors measure forward currency contracts at fair value, which is determined using valuation techniques that utilise observable inputs. The  key assumption used in valuing the forward contracts is the market to market value. 

(v) Impairment of goodwill:
Annually, the Group considers whether goodwill is impaired. When indication of impairment is identified the estimation of recoverable value requires estimation of the recoverable value of the cash generating units (CGUs). This requires estimation of the future cash flows from the CGUs and also selection of appropriate discount rates in order to calculate the net present value of those cash flows.
