GROUP STRATEGIC REPORT
FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 28 DECEMBER 2025

Introduction
 
The directors present the Strategic Report for the period ended 28 December 2025.

Business overview

Full House Restaurants Holdings Limited and its subsidiaries manage and operate Domino’s pizza delivery franchises in England. The Group’s strategy is focused on delivering sustainable performance from its existing estate through strong operational execution, continued investment in stores and people, and selective expansion where attractive opportunities are identified.

Business review
 
The Group maintained resilient sales during the period, with turnover increasing by 1% to £73.4(2024: £72.7m). Management was pleased that revenue remained steady against a slight decline in the wider industry, supporting the Group’s objective of retaining market share. Two new stores were opened during 2025 in West Byfleet and Cranleigh, while the Group continued its regular refurbishment programme, typically refreshing around five stores each year.

The principal challenge during the period was profitability. Gross profit decreased to £20.8(2024: £22.0m), representing a gross margin of 28.3(2024: 30.2%), and profit before tax decreased to £5.1(2024: £6.6m). The pressure on margin reflected continued cost inflation, particularly employment costs following increases in the National Living Wage and employers’ National Insurance contributions, together with broader operating cost pressures. The Group has responded through continued cost management, supplier engagement and a focus on operational efficiency while maintaining customer value and service standards.

The Group operates within the Domino’s franchise system and benefits from the strength of the brand and the franchisor’s national customer proposition, while remaining responsible for the day-to-day execution and performance of its store estate. Management continues to monitor trading performance by site and region and to assess opportunities to improve the productivity and customer experience of the existing estate.

At the date of this report there are no immediate plans to open further stores, although management continues to assess the market and will consider selective opportunities where the expected returns and strategic fit are attractive.

As the group operates on a fiscal year that ends on the Sunday closest to the last day of December, the current financial year reflects a 52 week period ended 28 December 2025.

The Group maintained revenue levels, with total sales of £73.4(2024 - £72.7m) an increase of 1% but gross margins fell to 28.3(2024 - 30.2%), resulting in a reduced profit before tax of £5.1(2024 - £6.6m). The net assets at the year-end were £19.9(2024 - £19.4m) which included the cash position of £6.2(2024 - £8.6m). The directors remain satisfied with the group's financial position at the year-end and believe it is well placed to meet any challenges ahead. 

Based on results dividends of £3m were paid to shareholders during the year (2024 - £5m).

The business continued its regular refurbishment program, typically refreshing around 5 stores a year.

GROUP STRATEGIC REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 28 DECEMBER 2025


Strategy and priorities

The Group’s strategic priorities are to:

Protect and grow sales through consistent customer service, product availability and customer value, while monitoring market performance by site and region.
Improve operating efficiency and protect margins through disciplined management of labour, food, energy and other controllable costs.
Invest in the existing store estate through planned refurbishments and targeted capital expenditure to maintain standards and support long-term returns.
Develop the Group’s people through recruitment, training and operational development, recognising that store teams and delivery colleagues are central to customer service and store performance.
Pursue selective expansion where new-store opportunities offer an attractive strategic and financial return, while maintaining discipline over capital allocation.

Principal risks and uncertainties
 
The Group continually reviews the principal risks and uncertainties facing the business. The key risks identified by management include the following:
 
Food and supply costs. Variable wholesale food prices and related supply-chain pressures remain a principal risk. The Group works closely with suppliers to manage costs.
Energy costs. Energy prices remain a risk, mitigated where possible through fixed-term arrangements, energy-efficiency initiatives and active cost management.
People and employment costs. The continued availability of store colleagues and delivery drivers, together with increases in the National Living Wage, employers’ National Insurance contributions and other employment costs, as well as potential future legislative changes, may put pressure on margins. The Group continues to recruit, train and develop employees to support operational resilience.
Consumer demand and competition. The Group operates in a competitive market in which value, service and customer experience are important to maintaining demand and market share. Management monitors customer feedback and market performance and responds through operational actions and the customer proposition available through the franchisor.
Franchise and brand environment. The Group’s trading activities are conducted within the Domino’s franchise model. Maintaining compliance with franchise requirements and continuing to operate effectively within the franchisor’s systems and supply arrangements are important to the Group’s performance.

Financial key performance indicators
 
The Group’s principal financial KPI is sales performance, including revenue growth by site and region, which management uses to monitor market performance and support the objective of retaining market share. During 2025, revenue increased by 1% to £73.4m, compared with a 1% decrease in the prior period.

Gross margin is also closely monitored because it is an important indicator of the Group’s ability to absorb changes in food, labour and other operating costs. Gross margin decreased to 28.3% in 2025 from 30.2% in 2024.

GROUP STRATEGIC REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 28 DECEMBER 2025

Other key performance indicators
 
Operational performance is monitored through customer feedback and complaints, site-level trading performance and the condition of the store estate. The Group is committed to maintaining high operating standards and follows up customer complaints appropriately. The planned refurbishment programme is an important part of maintaining the quality and presentation of the estate.

Employees and sustainability

People remain fundamental to the Group’s ability to deliver its customer proposition. The Group employed an average of 1,717 people during the period, including 1,682 employees across its stores. Management continues to focus on recruitment, training and development to support service quality and operational resilience.

The Group also continues to pursue practical energy and waste-reduction measures. During the period these included the continued refitting of stores with LED lighting, the rollout of heat-exchange extraction systems, recycling initiatives and the replacement of company cars with hybrid vehicles. These initiatives support both the Group’s environmental responsibilities and the management of energy and operating costs.

Directors' statement of compliance with duty to promote the success of the Group
 
The directors have acted in a manner they consider, in good faith, to promote the long-term success of the Group for the benefit of its members as a whole. In making decisions during the period, the directors considered the likely long-term consequences of those decisions, the interests of employees, the need to foster good relationships with customers and suppliers, the impact of the Group’s activities on the local community and environment, the importance of maintaining high standards of business conduct and the need to act fairly between members.

Examples of matters considered during the period included investment in the opening and refurbishment of stores, actions to manage the impact of employment and other cost inflation, supplier and cost-management initiatives, and continued investment in energy-efficiency measures. The directors consider these actions to support the Group’s long-term operational resilience and customer proposition. The Group enters the next period with a focus on protecting sales, improving operational efficiency and maintaining the quality of the existing estate. Management will continue to monitor the economic environment, employment and input costs, customer demand and market conditions closely and will assess selective store-opening opportunities where appropriate returns and strategic fit are identified.


This report was approved by the board and signed on its behalf.

Engagement with employees

The Group's policy is to consult and discuss with employees, through unions, staff councils and at meetings, matters likely to affect employees' interests.

Information about matters of concern to employees is given through information bulletins and reports which seek to achieve a common awareness on the part of all employees of the financial and economic factors affecting the Group's performance.

There is no employee share scheme at present.

Engagement with suppliers, customers and others

The Group has a close working relationship with the main Franchiser and principal supplier, regularly meeting to discuss industry challenges, local promotion deals and new site opportunities. The Group regularly obtains feedback from customers and actively makes changes, where it makes sense and is consistent with the Franchise brand.

Disabled employees

Applications for employment by disabled persons are always fully considered, bearing in mind the aptitudes of the applicant concerned. In the event of members of staff becoming disabled, every effort is made to ensure that their employment within the company continues and that the appropriate training is arranged.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF FULL HOUSE RESTAURANTS HOLDINGS LIMITED

Opinion


We have audited the financial statements of Full House Restaurants Holdings Limited (the 'Parent Company') and its subsidiaries (the 'Group') for the period ended 28 December 2025, which comprise the Consolidated Statement of Income and Retained Earnings, the Consolidated Analysis of Net Debt, 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 28 December 2025 and of the Group's profit for the period 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 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.


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 ReportOur 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.

Opinion on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006
 

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


the information given in the Group Strategic Report and the Directors' Report for the financial period for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and
the Group Strategic Report and the Directors' Report have been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.


Matters on which we are required to report by exception
 

In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the Group and the Parent Company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Group Strategic Report or the 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.


Responsibilities of directors
 

As explained more fully in the Directors' Responsibilities Statement set out on page 4, 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.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF FULL HOUSE RESTAURANTS HOLDINGS LIMITED (CONTINUED)

Auditor's 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 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 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:

The Group is subject to laws and regulations that directly affect the financial statements including financial reporting legislation. We determined that the following laws and regulations were most significant including the UK Companies Act, employment law and tax legislation. We assessed the extent of compliance with these laws and regulations as part of our procedures on the related financial statement items.

We understood how the Group is complying with those legal and regulatory frameworks by making inquiries to management, those responsible for legal and compliance procedures and the Group secretary.

The engagement partner assessed whether the engagement team collectively had the appropriate competence and capabilities to identify or recognise non-compliance with laws and regulations. The assessment did not identify any issues in this area.

We assessed the susceptibility of the Group’s financial statements to material misstatement, including how fraud might occur. Audit procedures performed by the engagement team included:

°Identifying and assessing the design effectiveness of controls management has in place to prevent and detect fraud;

°Understanding how those charged with governance considered and addressed the potential for override of controls or other inappropriate influence over the financial reporting process; and

°Identifying and testing journal entries, in particular any journal entries posted with unusual account combinations.

As a result of the above procedures, we considered the opportunities and incentives that may exist within the organisation for fraud and identified the greatest potential for fraud in the following areas:

°Posting of unusual journals and complex transactions; and

°Risk over existence leading to incorrect recognition of revenue.


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 Auditor's Report.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 28 DECEMBER 2025

1.


General information

Full House Restaurants Holdings Limited is a private Company, limited by shares, domiciled and incorporated in England and Wales. The registered number and registered office address is disclosed on the company information page. The principal place of business is Unit 5, The Forum, Hanworth Lane, Chertsey, Surrey, KT16 9JX.

The Group consists of Full House Restaurants Holdings Limited ("the Company") and all of its subsidiaries. The Group manages and operates pizza delivery franchises in England.

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 Group operates on a 52 week fiscal year that ends on the Sunday closest to the last day of December. The financial statements herein are for the period ended 28 December 2025.

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 Income and Retained Earnings 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 Income and Retained Earnings from the date on which control is obtained. They are deconsolidated from the date control ceases.

 
2.3

Turnover

Turnover 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. Turnover is generated via operating fast food outlets and is measured as the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, excluding discounts, rebates, value added tax and other sales taxes.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 28 DECEMBER 2025

2.Accounting policies (continued)

 
2.4

Leased assets: the Group as lessee

Assets obtained under hire purchase contracts and finance leases are capitalised as tangible fixed assets. Assets acquired by finance lease are depreciated over the shorter of the lease term and their useful lives. Assets acquired by hire purchase are depreciated over their useful lives. Finance leases are those where substantially all of the benefits and risks of ownership are assumed by the Group. Obligations under such agreements are included in creditors net of the finance charge allocated to future periods. The finance element of the rental payment is charged to profit or loss so as to produce a constant periodic rate of charge on the net obligation outstanding in each period.

 
2.5

Interest income

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

 
2.6

Intangible assets

Goodwill

Goodwill arising on the acquisition of subsidiary undertakings and branches, represents any excess of the fair value of the consideration given over the fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities acquired. 
Goodwill is being written off over twenty years on the basis that the company has the option, as stipulated in its franchise agreements, to renew the existing franchises for further ten year terms at the end of the initial ten year term. As the directors are likely to take up the option and due to the company being in a good standing with regards to the terms of the franchise agreement, the directors believe amortisation over the full 20 years reflects the likely consumption of economic benefits. 

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.

           Franchise rights                                      -  10 years straight line

 
2.7

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.

At each reporting date the Group assesses whether there is any indication of impairment. If such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is determined which is the higher of its fair value less costs to sell and its value in use. An impairment loss is recognised where the carrying amount exceeds the recoverable amount.

Page 20

 


FULL HOUSE RESTAURANTS HOLDINGS LIMITED
 


 
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 28 DECEMBER 2025

2.Accounting policies (continued)


2.7
Tangible fixed assets (continued)

Depreciation is charged so as to allocate the cost of assets less their residual value over their estimated useful lives, using the straight-line method.

Depreciation is provided on the following basis:

Freehold property
-
Nil
Long-term leasehold property
-
10 years straight line
Motor vehicles
-
4 years straight line
Plant and machinery
-
10 years straight line
Computer equipment
-
5 years 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.

The depreciable value of the freehold and leasehold property is £nil because the estimated amount that the entity would expect to obtain from the disposal of the assets, if the properties were already of the age and in the condition expected at the end of its useful economic life, is in excess of the current carrying value. As such no depreciation charge is included within the financial statements. 

 
2.8

Valuation of investments

Investments in subsidiaries are measured at cost less accumulated impairment.

 
2.9

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.

 
2.10

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.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 28 DECEMBER 2025

2.Accounting policies (continued)

 
2.11

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.

 
2.12

Dividends

Equity dividends are recognised when they become legally payable. Interim equity dividends are recognised when paid. Final equity dividends are recognised when approved by the shareholders at an annual general meeting.

 
2.13

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.

Benefits received and receivable as an incentive to sign an operating lease are recognised on a straight-line basis over the lease term, unless another systematic basis is representative of the time pattern of the lessee's benefit from the use of the leased asset.

 
2.14

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 PERIOD ENDED 28 DECEMBER 2025

2.Accounting policies (continued)

 
2.15

Current and deferred taxation

The tax expense for the period 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; and
Any deferred tax balances are reversed if and when all conditions for retaining associated tax allowances have been met.

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.



3.


Estimates and Judgments

The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported. These estimates and judgments are continually reviewed and are based on experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.

Key sources of estimation uncertainty

Accounting estimates and assumptions are made concerning the future and, by their nature, will rarely equal the related actual outcome. The directors consider there to be no key assumptions and other sources of estimation uncertainty that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year.
