STRATEGIC REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025
The directors present their strategic report on the accounts for the year ended 31 December 2025
The company's principal activity continues to be the operation of two nursing homes based in Surrey through subsidiary companies.
This company is a holding company and has not traded during the year.
The principal risks and uncertainties relate to the company's two trading nursing homes.
The principal risk to the growth in fees generated in the companies is that local authorities and the NHS do not increase their payments at the same rate as the rise in cost of operating the care homes. Experience shows, however, that supply and demand over the long-term help to adjust this difference. Historically, staff costs account for typically 65% to 70% of the total operation costs in a care home. Any government pay rises to NHS nursing staff need to be matched for those working in the care home in order to retain staff. The lower paid staff wage rates are linked directly to the level of the minimum wage. Any percentage increases in the minimum wage above the percentag rate of increase in the fees agredd by local goverment to be paid to care homes impacts on the company's profitability. The directors ensure that there are agreements in place with the local authorities, together with regular dialogue, to ensure occupancy rates are maintained at high level. The directors recognise the importance of staff and in particular nursing staff. Staff is the subsidiaries' greatest asset. For this reason the directors dedicate time and resources to ensuring the permanent recruitment of nursing staff instead of being reliant on agency staff, who are only used as a last resort. This ensures continuity with quality of care.
The subsidiaries' key performance indicator is the monthly turnover. The results for the year to 31 December 2025 showed turnover amounting to £4,424,407 (2024 9 months - £3,192,098). This is an increase of 3.96% (2024 - 12.2%)..
The group's other key performance indicator is the monthly staff costs. As noted above the total costs are typically 65% to 70% of fee income. For 31 December 2025 this amounted to 63.65% (2024 - 61.95%).
The subsidiaries' key performance indicator is the weekly occupancy report. The group has again managed to maintain occupancy rates of 95% and above, the same as last year, which in turn enables the delivery of the care noted above using permanent staff.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF PITTMAN (HOLDINGS) LTD
We have audited the financial statements of PITTMAN (HOLDINGS) LTD (the 'Company') for the year ended 31 December 2025, which comprise the Profit and loss account, the Balance sheet, the 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 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 PITTMAN (HOLDINGS) LTD (CONTINUED)
The other information comprises the information included in the Annual Report other than the financial statements and our Auditors' report thereon. The directors are responsible for the other information contained within the Annual Report. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. Our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the course of the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact.
We have nothing to report in this regard.
In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:
∙the information given in the Strategic report and the Directors' report for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and
∙the Strategic report and the Directors' report have been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.
In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the Company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Strategic report or the Directors' report.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF PITTMAN (HOLDINGS) LTD (CONTINUED)
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an Auditors' report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.
Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below:
As part of designing our audit approach, we determined a materiality level and assessed the risks of material misstatement in the financial statements, including how fraud may occur through enquiries of management regarding its assessment of the areas and liklihood of fraud. We looked at the areas where subjective judgements were made by management. In particular we looked at significant accounting estimates which were the result of assumptions made and based upon future events which are inherently uncertain. We also considered the effect of potential financial and other pressures, opportunity and motivations for fraud. We identified the use of internal controls established to mitigate risks related to fraud or non-compliance with laws and regulations and how management motitor these procedures. As part of our audit we reviewed and tested journals, key estimates and judgements made by management. Our tests included agreeing the financial statements disclosures to underlying supporting documentation and enquiries with management. We did not identify any key audit matters relating to irregularites, including fraud. We considered the risk of management override of internal controls and carried out tests to to evaluate this. Our audit procedures are designed to identify risks of material misstatement, recognising that risks of not detecting such material misstatements due to fraud is greater then the risk due to error, due to the fact that fraud may well involve deliberate concealment. The audit procedures have inherent limitations. The further removed that non-compliance with laws and regulations are from the events and transactions included in the financial statements, the less likely we are to detect it.
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.
