GROUP STRATEGIC REPORT
FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 28 DECEMBER 2025
The directors present their report and financial statements for the period ended 29 December 2025.
Competitive Socialising Group Limited is a London and New York based parent company of Swingers, the premium competitive socialising brand.
The Group operates within the experiential leisure segment of the hospitality market, combining immersive entertainment formats with high quality food, cocktails and service to create differentiated, destination led venues. The Group’s strategy is focused on disciplined geographic expansion, brand-led innovation and the scalable deployment of its operating model across owned, joint venture and franchise formats. During the year, the Group undertook a comprehensive review and restructuring of its cost base, strengthening operational efficiency and positioning the business to support future investment and growth. A key milestone during the period was the completion of the build of the Group’s Boston Back Bay venue, scheduled to open in February 2026. The site comprises two mini-golf courses and an expanded Carnival experience and represents the Group’s first joint venture operation, in partnership with an affiliate of the Tavistock Group. This structure provides a blueprint for capital-efficient expansion in new markets. In parallel, the Group continues to progress its international growth strategy through franchising, enabling brand expansion into new territories while maintaining operational focus and capital discipline. Together, these initiatives support the Group’s long-term objective of building a globally recognised competitive socialising platform with multiple routes to growth.

GROUP STRATEGIC REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 28 DECEMBER 2025
Financial instruments
The Group's principal financial instruments comprise bank balances, rent deposits, bank loans, letters of credit, trade creditors and other creditors. The main purpose of these instruments is to raise funds for the Group's operations and to finance the Group's operations. Due to the nature of the financial instruments used by the Group there is no exposure to price risk. The Group's approach to managing other risks applicable to the financial instruments concerned is shown below. Liquidity risk In respect of bank balances the liquidity risk is managed by maintaining a balance between the continuity of funding and the flexibility through the use of bank loans. Trade creditor liquidity risk is managed by ensuring sufficient funds are available to meet amounts due. Competition The market in which the Group operates is becoming increasingly competitive through the introduction of new entrants as well as the expansion of established players. Trading demonstrates that the Group maintains a strong position, due to factors including the location of the sites, the brand recognition and the quality of the experience provided. These factors are expected to ensure continued growth and profitability.
The Group is committed to providing equality of opportunity to all employees without discrimination and applied fair and equitable employment policies which ensure entry and progression within the Group. Appointments are determined solely by application of job criteria and competency.
The Group will seek to minimise adverse impacts on the environment from its activities where possible, whilst continuing to address health, safety and economic issues. The group has complied with all applicable legislation and regulations.

DIRECTORS' REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 28 DECEMBER 2025
The Streamline Energy and Carbon Report provides an overview of the energy and carbon emissions for UK operational control and the mechanisms being put in place to manage these impacts.
The UK Government’s 2018 Regulations launched the Streamlined Energy and Carbon Report (SECR) which required all large UK companies to report their carbon emissions and energy usage on an annual basis. The regulations took effect from 1 April 2019 and cover financial reporting years starting after this date. This Company falls within scope of the SECR reporting obligations as a ‘large’ organization and is now required to report the following: Energy Consumption and Greenhouse Gas Emissions For the reporting period, total energy consumption for UK operations relating to electricity usage amounted to 714,669 kWh. The associated greenhouse gas emissions from this consumption have been calculated at 97.19 tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent (CO2e). These figures have been derived from the Company’s Energy Savings Opportunity Scheme (ESOS) audit conducted during the year. ESOS is a mandatory energy assessment scheme for large organisations in the UK and provides a detailed analysis of energy usage and efficiency opportunities. Following the year end, the Company completed its ESOS Phase 3 energy assessment for its UK operations. As part of the resulting action plan, a number of initiatives are being considered to improve energy efficiency and reduce emissions. These include: - The development and implementation of a formal Energy Management Plan and Policy - A comprehensive review and optimisation of the Building Management System (BMS) - The introduction of a staff awareness and engagement campaign focused on energy efficiency Based on initial assessments, these measures are expected to deliver energy savings of approximately 80,000 kWh across the UK business. The Company remains committed to improving its energy performance and will continue to monitor, review, and implement initiatives aimed at reducing its environmental footprint.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF COMPETITIVE SOCIALISING GROUP LIMITED
We have audited the financial statements of Competitive Socialising Group Limited (the 'parent Company') and its subsidiaries (the 'Group') for the period ended 28 December 2025, which comprise the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income, the Consolidated Balance Sheet, the Company Balance Sheet, 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 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 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.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF COMPETITIVE SOCIALISING GROUP LIMITED (CONTINUED)
The other information comprises the information included in the Annual Report other than the financial statements and our Auditors' Report thereon. The directors are responsible for the other information contained within the Annual Report. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. Our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the course of the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact.
We have nothing to report in this regard.
In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:
∙the information given in the 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.
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.

COMPETITIVE SOCIALISING GROUP LIMITED
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF COMPETITIVE SOCIALISING GROUP LIMITED (CONTINUED)
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an Auditors' Report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these 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:
Explanation as to what extent the audit was considered capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud The objectives of our audit are to identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements due to fraud or error; to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the assessed risks of material misstatement due to fraud or error; and to respond appropriately to those risks. Owing to the inherent limitations of an audit, there is an unavoidable risk that material misstatements in the financial statements may not be detected, even though the audit is properly planned and performed in accordance with the ISAs (UK). In identifying and assessing risks of material misstatement in respect of irregularities, including fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations, our procedures included the following: • We obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory frameworks applicable to the Group and the industry in which it operates. We determined that the following laws and regulations were most significant: FRS 102 and the Companies Act 2006. • We obtained an understanding of how the Group is complying with those legal and regulatory frameworks by making enquiries of management. • We challenged assumptions and judgments made by management in its significant accounting estimates. We did not identify any key audit matters relating to irregularities, including fraud.
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.
