Strategic Report
for the year ended 31 January 2026
The directors present their Strategic Report and the audited consolidated financial statements of Reed &
Mackay Holdings Limited (“the Company”) for the year ended 31 January 2026.
Principal activities
The Company continues to be the holding company for the Reed & Mackay Group (“the Group”) which is
engaged in the booking & ticketing of flights, rail tickets, hotels & ancillary services for business travel as well
as the arrangement of corporate events & meetings in the UK and throughout the world.
Business review
This is the first year the Group has prepared its financial statements in accordance with UK-adopted
International Accounting Standards (“IFRS”). Accordingly, financial information at 1 February 2024 (being the
date of transition) and for the year ended 31 January 2025 have been adjusted to comply with IFRS. The
impact of the transition to IFRS is detailed within Note 4.
This year represented the start of a multi-year period of transition and transformation for the Group and its
stakeholders. On 30 October 2025, the Group’s parent company Navan Inc completed its initial public
offering on the Nasdaq stock exchange. On 29 January 2026, Navan Inc announced the intention to
transition the Company’s customers to the Navan platform. As a result of this transition, the Group’s
renowned client-led service offering will become the foundation for a new premium offering under the Navan
brand, all the while ensuring customers continue to receive the white-glove service they value today. Over
the course of the year, the Group maintained its delivery of high-quality service to its customers, whilst
investment and integration activities have ramped during the final months of the financial year.
The key performance indicators of the Group are as follows:

(3)%
Revenue has remained broadly in line year on year.
Operating profit has decreased by 16% which is driven by the investment in the Group’s activities as it
begins a multi-year period of transformation to transition its clients on to the Navan platform. Therefore,
additional costs have been incurred in relation to the reorganisation required to optimise the Group’s
structure and the employee-base to support the long-term success of the Group and deliver to customers a
fully integrated solution of best-in-class service and technology
Profit after tax has decreased by 72% due to the decrease in operating profit as noted above and the 2026
deferred tax charge (2025: deferred tax credit) on share-based payments.
Net assets have decreased by 4% primarily due to the profit after tax generated in the year less dividends
paid and a reduction in deferred tax assets
The average number of employees has increased by 7%  due to investments in the Group’s client-facing
teams to ensure we continue to provide high-quality services to our customers whilst having sufficient
headcount to enable the business to further integrate the Group with the operations of its ultimate parent
company Navan Inc.

Reed & Mackay Holdings Limited
Strategic Report (continued)
for the year ended 31 January 2026
Future developments
The Group’s ongoing focus is on integration activities to migrate the customer base to the Navan platform
whilst continuing to maintain our high-standards of service.
Principal risks and uncertainties
The Group’s risk management framework includes a process for identifying, assessing and responding to
risk and supporting the Group’s strategy and business objectives.
Risk management operates at all levels throughout the business. However, the directors take overall
responsibility, determining the nature and extent of principal risks it is willing to take to achieve the Group’s
strategic objectives, and maintaining the Group’s risk governance structure and appropriate internal control
framework.
The principal risks faced by the Group are as follows:
Credit risk
The Group’s credit risk is primarily attributable to its trade receivables. Credit risk is managed by the Group's
Credit Policy which includes management’s review of aged debt on a monthly basis; running credit checks
on new clients;  tracking credit scores on existing clients, setting and reviewing credit limits and terms on
clients; encouraging clients to make payments via credit cards or direct debit and by monitoring payments
against contractual agreements. No long-term commitments are made without funds being received from
clients.
Supplier risk
The Group has various contractual arrangements in place with a number of third-party travel suppliers
including airlines, hotels, global distribution system providers and rail travel providers. Adverse changes to
these key supplier arrangements could impact the Group’s operations and future financial results. The Group
mitigates this risk by maintaining a broad supplier base with a focus on maintaining strong relationships with
all suppliers and identifying any new potential suppliers through a robust procurement process.
Cash flow risk
The directors monitor cash flow as part of its day to day control procedures to ensure the Group can meet its
obligations and to support its investment plans to drive long-term growth. The directors review short and
long-term forecasts on a monthly basis to ensure appropriate facilities are available. At year-end, the Group
had a cash balance of £44,851,000 (2025: £30,802,000).
Foreign exchange risk
Exposure to foreign exchange movements are monitored on a month by month basis. To mitigate foreign
exchange risk the Group focuses on receiving and making payments in local currencies where possible.
Travel industry disruption
The Group's financial performance is reliant on the strength of both domestic and international travel.
Unpredictable force majeures such as wars, pandemics and natural disasters have highly adverse effects on
the global travel industry and can rarely be mitigated. Disruption can also arise from economic conditions,
such as recessions, and political environments which can result in varying levels of decrease in demand or
additional operational costs across the industry. To increase the Group’s resilience against global  travel
industry disruption, the Group offers a diverse range of services with a wide portfolio of customers.

Strategic Report (continued)
for the year ended 31 January 2026
Section 172(1) Statement
Section 172(1) of the Companies Act 2006 requires the directors to act in a way they consider would most
likely promote the success of the Company for the benefit of our members as a whole. When making
decisions, the directors are required to have regard to the interests of the Company's employees, clients,
suppliers and other stakeholders including the impact of the Company's activities on the community and
environment. The directors should also consider the likely impact of such decisions on maintaining high
standards of business conduct and the likely consequences in the long-term.
Decision-making at the Board
The Board consists of experienced directors who bring considerable expertise and perspective to the
decision-making process. The responsibilities of the Board are set out in the Company’s Articles of
Association. The Board meets on a regular basis and all matters in which the Board is required to reach a
decision are presented at Board meetings. Supporting papers setting out to the directors the relevant key
facts are also provided. The papers also describe any potential short-term and long-term impacts and risks
for the Company, the Group, its clients, employees, shareholders and other stakeholders including suppliers,
the community and environment, and how these are to be managed.
Employees
The directors consider its employees to be a primary stakeholder in the business and strives to retain and
motivate all employees as well as attracting high quality new talent. The culture is to be supportive and
actively recognise efforts, ensuring employees feel they are making an impact doing fulfilling work, as well as
encouraging people to grow and develop. The Group has a strong focus on employee engagement and HR
strategy and continues to enhance a workplace that employees enjoy being a part of. The wellbeing of
employees is very important, and integrating work and family life, as well as taking care of oneself and giving
back to the community are all encouraged.
Diversity and equal opportunity are of great importance at Reed & Mackay and we believe it’s the only way
to ensure everyone can reach their full potential. We are proud of our inclusive culture and the part it plays in
attracting and retaining a talented workforce with real passion for delivering extraordinary service.
Clients
Our clients are at the heart of everything we do. Our desire for service is matched only by our dedication to
value. Our travel experts search harder, explore further and think smarter to deliver our clients the best
possible solution. As discussed in further detail in Future Developments on page 4, the Group has
announced plans to combine the talents of our consultants with the market leading technology of Navan to
ensure we continue to best serve our clients going forward.
Suppliers
The Group is committed to responsible procurement and prioritises fair and transparent dealings, timely
payments and open communication with all suppliers.
Environment
We recognise that business travel has an impact on the environment. As a result, we are fully committed to
minimising this impact along with our clients. Certified to ISO 14001, the international environmental
accreditation, we work hard to reduce the carbon footprint of our business and that of our clients’ travel
programmes. The Company continues to prioritise sustainability in all activities and processes.
High standards of business conduct
The Board set out to behave in a responsible manner, operating with the highest standards of business
conduct and good governance. This is epitomised in the certifications achieved for ISO 9001 (Quality), ISO

risks are identified and minimised, and that the business has the resource and ability to continue to provide

pandemic.
We work closely and collaboratively with our service providers, including airlines, hotels and transport
services, and other suppliers, including our technology partners, developing a partnership approach to foster
sound commercial relationships that ultimately benefit our clients.
The Board recognises and continues to protect and promote the Reed & Mackay brand and reputation which
has been built over 50 years on the foundation of the highest standards of service and integrity.

Post balance sheet events
On 3 February 2026, as part of an ongoing programme to streamline the global operations of the Navan
group, the Group acquired 100% of the shareholding in Navan New Zealand Limited from it’s parent
company Navan Inc.
Going concern
The directors have prepared detailed financial forecasts which take into account the expected future trading
performance of the Group, the Company and reasonable possible reductions in this expected performance.
These demonstrate that the Group and the Company will be able to operate within the level of its available
resources and will have sufficient funds to ensure it can meet its financial liabilities as they fall due.
The Group’s subsidiary Reed & Mackay Travel Limited has a joint revolving credit facility with the Company’s
parent company Navan Inc and under this arrangement certain assets of the subsidiary have been pledged.
Given the joint nature of this arrangement, the Company has received a letter of support from Navan Inc
confirming its support to the Company, the Group and its obligations under this joint arrangement for a period
of at least twelve months from signing of these financial statements.
After making enquiries and taking into account the above factors, the directors have a reasonable
expectation that the Group and the Company have adequate resources to continue to meet its obligations as
they fall due for the foreseeable future being a period of at least twelve months from signing of these
financial statements. Accordingly, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing these financial
statements.

Reed & Mackay Holdings Limited
Directors' Report (continued)
for the year ended 31 January 2026
Employment of disabled persons
The Group is committed to a policy of recruitment and promotion, on the basis of aptitude & ability without
discrimination of any kind. Management actively pursues both the employment of disabled persons
whenever a suitable vacancy arises and the continued employment and retraining of employees who
become disabled whilst employed by the Group. Particular attention is paid to the training, career
development and promotion of employees who are disabled with a view to encouraging them to play an
active role in the development of the Group.
Employee engagement
The Group is committed to engaging employees in the performance and direction of the Group. Through the
Group's performance development plans and incentive schemes, employees' objectives are closely aligned
to those of the Group. Management is committed to having the industry leading training programme and has
continued to invest in bespoke training. Furthermore, as part of a blended employee engagement approach,
the Group has developed several core e-learning programmes and employees attend monthly business
updates.
Streamlined energy and carbon reporting
The Group is committed to reducing the energy consumption and carbon impact of its business and to
supporting our clients in reducing the impact that business travel has on the environment. During the year,
the Group continued to enhance our environmental and energy management practices through a range of
initiatives aimed at improving operational efficiency and strengthening sustainability governance. Key actions
included maintaining ISO 14001 Environmental Management System certification following a successful
external audit, submitting its second Energy Savings Opportunity Scheme (ESOS) Action Plan to the
Environment Agency, and completing an independently audited global carbon footprint in accordance with
ISO 14064-1. The Group also completed a Double Materiality Assessment across the Navan Group,
published its fourth Sustainability & Responsibility Report, maintained its CDP rating, and was awarded a
Bronze EcoVadis Medal, placing it in the 84th percentile of assessed organisations. These activities support
the Group's ongoing commitment to environmental performance, energy efficiency and responsible business
practices. These activities included:
• Purchase of 100% renewable energy for our head office location in London.
• Introduction of a 100% renewable energy tariff for our office in Sydney.
• Migration to our parent company travel policy which mandates usage of economy class travel for the
majority of employees - thus significantly reducing our energy profile for international travel.
• Reduction of 85% in the size of our vehicle fleet (from 7 company cars to 1).
In accordance with the Companies (Directors' Report) and Limited Liability Partnerships (Energy and Carbon
Report) Regulations 2018, the energy use and associated greenhouse gas emissions are for the activities of
the Company and its UK subsidiaries which it directly controls. The report excludes the non-UK based
subsidiaries which don’t qualify under the 2018 Regulations in their own right. The Group’s energy use and
greenhouse gas emissions have been calculated using supplier and internal travel booking statements for
the year ended 31 January 2026.
Emissions have been calculated using DEFRA’s 2025 UK Government conversion factors.
Estimations made in the collection of the data include:
• An estimation of the electricity consumption attributable to Reed & Mackay in buildings with shared
occupancy, based on the total building electricity consumption and the area in square metres that
Reed & Mackay occupies; and
• Where estimates are required, the activity data should be calculated to achieve a conservative
estimation of GHG emissions, to ensure that it is more likely that the emissions have been
marginally over-reported than underreported.

for the year ended 31 January 2026
The directors are responsible for preparing the Annual Report and the financial statements in accordance
with applicable law and regulations.
Company law requires the directors to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law
the directors have elected to prepare the Group financial statements in accordance with UK-adopted
international accounting standards and the Company financial statements in accordance with (United
Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice including FRS 101 “Reduced Disclosure Framework, 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 Company and of the profit or loss of the
Group for that period. In preparing the financial statements, the directors are required to:
• select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
• state whether applicable UK=adopted international accounting standards have been followed for the
Group financial statements and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, comprising FRS 101 have
been followed for the Company financial statements, subject to any material departures disclosed
and explained in the financial statements;
• make judgements and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and
• prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume
that the Group and Company will continue in business.
The directors are responsible for safeguarding the assets of the Group and Company and hence for taking
reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
The directors are also responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and
explain the Group’s and Company's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the
financial position of the Group and Company and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply
with the Companies Act 2006.

Reed & Mackay Holdings Limited
Independent auditor's report to the members of Reed &
Mackay Holdings Limited
for the year ended 31 January 2026
Report on the audit of the financial statements
Opinion
In our opinion:
• Reed & Mackay Holdings Limited’s group financial statements and company financial statements
(the “financial statements”) give a true and fair view of the state of the group’s and of the company’s
affairs as at 31 January 2026 and of the group’s profit and the group’s cash flows for the year then
ended;
• the group financial statements have been properly prepared in accordance with UK-adopted
international accounting standards.
• the company financial statements have been properly prepared in accordance with FRS 101
"Reduced Disclosure Framework"; and
• the financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies
Act 2006.
We have audited the financial statements, included within the Annual Report and financial statements (the
“Annual Report”), which comprise: the Consolidated Balance Sheet and Company Balance Sheet as at 31
January 2026; the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income, the Consolidated Statement of
Changes in Equity, the Company Statement of Changes in Equity and the Consolidated Statement of Cash
Flows for the year then ended; and the notes to the financial statements, comprising material accounting
policy information and other explanatory information.
Basis for opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (“ISAs (UK)”) and
applicable law. Our responsibilities under ISAs (UK) are further described in the Auditors’ responsibilities for
the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We believe that the audit evidence we have
obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Independence
We remained independent of the group in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our
audit of the financial statements in the UK, which includes the FRC’s Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled
our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements.
Conclusions relating to going concern
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 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.
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.
However, because not all future events or conditions can be predicted, this conclusion is not a guarantee as
to the group's and the company's ability to continue as a going concern.
Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the directors with respect to going concern are described in
the relevant sections of this report.

Independent auditor's report to the members of Reed &
Mackay Holdings Limited (continued)
for the year ended 31 January 2026
Report on the audit of the financial statements (continued)
Reporting on other information
The other information comprises all of the information in the Annual Report other than the financial
statements and our auditors’ report thereon. The directors are responsible for the other information. Our
opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, accordingly, we do not express
an audit opinion or, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in this report, any form of assurance
thereon.
In connection with our audit of the financial statements, 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 audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we
identify an apparent material inconsistency or material misstatement, we are required to perform procedures
to conclude whether there is a material misstatement of the financial statements or a material misstatement
of the other information. 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 based
on these responsibilities.
With respect to the Strategic Report and Directors' Report, we also considered whether the disclosures
required by the UK Companies Act 2006 have been included.
Based on our work undertaken in the course of the audit, the Companies Act 2006 requires us also to report
certain opinions and matters as described below.
Strategic Report and Directors' Report
In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit, the information given in the Strategic
Report and Directors' Report for the year ended 31 January 2026 is consistent with the financial statements
and has been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.
In light of the knowledge and understanding of the group and company and their environment obtained in the
course of the audit, we did not identify any material misstatements in the Strategic Report and Directors'
Report.
Responsibilities for the financial statements and the audit
Responsibilities of the directors for the financial statements
As explained more fully in the Statement of directors' responsibilities in respect of the financial statements,
the directors are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements in accordance with the applicable
framework and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view. The directors are also responsible for
such internal control as they 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
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 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.

Report on the audit of the financial statements (continued)
Responsibilities for the financial statements and the audit (continued)
Auditors’ responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements (continued)
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.
Based on our understanding of the group and industry, we identified that the principal risks of non-
compliance with laws and regulations related to those imposed by the travel industry regulators and
employment laws, and we considered the extent to which non-compliance might have a material effect on
the financial statements. We also considered those laws and regulations that have a direct impact on the
financial statements such as the Companies Act 2006 and UK tax legislation. We evaluated management’s
incentives and opportunities for fraudulent manipulation of the financial statements (including the risk of
override of controls), and determined that the principal risks were related to posting inappropriate journals
entries in the underlying books and records and management bias including in estimates. Audit procedures
performed by the engagement team included:
• Discussions with management and internal legal counsel, including consideration of known or
suspected instances of non-compliance with laws and regulation and whether there was any alleged,
suspected or actual fraud;
• Review of minutes of management and board meetings during the year;
• Review of the disclosures in the Annual report and financial statements against specific legal
requirements and assessing the compliance of disclosures against relevant legislation;
• Identifying and testing journal entries, in particular any journal entries posted with unusual account
combinations; and
• Challenging the assumptions and judgements made by management in their significant accounting
estimates and judgements.
There are inherent limitations in the audit procedures described above. We are less likely to become aware
of instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations that are not closely related to events and
transactions reflected in the financial statements. Also, the risk of not detecting a material misstatement due
to fraud is higher than the risk of not detecting one resulting from error, as fraud may involve deliberate
concealment by, for example, forgery or intentional misrepresentations, or through collusion. 
A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the FRC’s
website at: www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditors’ report.
Use of this report
This report, including the opinions, has been prepared for and only for the company’s members as a body in
accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006 and for no other purpose. We do not, in
giving these opinions, accept or assume responsibility for any other purpose or to any other person to whom
this report is shown or into whose hands it may come save where expressly agreed by our prior consent in
writing.

Reed & Mackay Holdings Limited
Notes to the Consolidated financial statements
for the year ended 31 January 2026
1.  Basis of preparation
Reed & Mackay Holdings Limited (“the Company”) is a private limited company, limited by shares, domiciled
and incorporated in England and Wales. The address of the registered office is Nexus Place, 25 Farringdon
Street London. The consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial information of the Company
and its subsidiaries (together referred to as the “Group”). These financial statements have been prepared
under the historical cost convention except for certain financial instruments which are measured at fair value
and in accordance with UK-adopted International Accounting Standards (“IFRS”) and with the requirements
of the Companies Act 2006 as applicable to companies reporting under those standards.
The preparation of financial statements in compliance with IFRS requires the use of certain critical
accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise judgement in applying the Group's
accounting policies. Further information is provided in Note 3.
The Company has taken advantage of the exemption allowed under s408 of the Companies Act 2006 and
has not presented its own Statement of Comprehensive Income in these financial statements.
Going concern
The directors have prepared detailed financial forecasts which take into account the expected future trading
performance of the Group, the Company and reasonable possible reductions in this expected performance.
These demonstrate that the Group and the Company will be able to operate within the level of its available
resources and will have sufficient funds to ensure it can meet its financial liabilities as they fall due.
The Group’s subsidiary Reed & Mackay Travel Limited has a joint revolving credit facility with the Company’s
parent company Navan Inc and under this arrangement certain assets of the subsidiary have been pledged.
Given the joint nature of this arrangement, the Company has received a letter of support from Navan Inc
confirming its support to the Company, the Group and its obligations under this joint arrangement for a period
of at least twelve months from signing of these financial statements.
After making enquiries and taking into account the above factors, the directors have a reasonable
expectation that the Group and the Company have adequate resources to continue to meet its obligations as
they fall due for the foreseeable future being a period of at least twelve months from signing of these
financial statements. Accordingly, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing these financial
statements.
Developments in reporting standards and interpretations
New standards, amendments and interpretations not yet adopted
The following new standards and amendments to standards and interpretations are effective for future
periods:
• IFRS 18 Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements (effective for periods beginning on or
after 1 January 2027)
• Amendments to the Classification and Measurement of Financial Instruments (Amendments to IFRS
9 and IFRS 7) (effective for periods beginning on or after 1 January 2026)
• Annual improvements to IFRS - Volume 11 (effective for periods beginning on or after 1 January
2026)
The Group does not intend to adopt the new or amended standards early. It is not currently expected that
these new and amended standards will have a material impact on the Group's financial statements, although
IFRS 18 will change the structure of the Statement of Comprehensive Income.
23
Reed & Mackay Holdings Limited
Notes to the Consolidated financial statements
for the year ended 31 January 2026
2.  Material accounting policies
Basis of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements present the results of the Company and its subsidiaries (“the Group”)
as if they formed a single entity.
The Group controls an entity when it is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with
the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity. Subsidiaries are fully
consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Group. They are deconsolidated from the
date that control ceases.
The results of subsidiaries acquired or disposed of during the year are included in the Consolidated
Statement of Comprehensive Income from the effective date of acquisition or up to the effective date of
disposal, as appropriate. Where necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries
to bring the accounting policies used into line with those used by the Group. All intra-group transactions,
balances, income and expenses are eliminated on consolidation.
Reserves
Financial instruments issued by the Group are classified as equity in accordance with the substance of the
contractual arrangements and the definitions of an equity instrument and a financial liability under IAS 32.
An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the Group after
deducting all of its liabilities. Equity instruments issued by the Group are recognized at the proceeds
received, net of direct issue costs.
Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new ordinary
shares or options are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds
Interim dividends are recognized as a liability and deducted from retained earnings in the period in which
they are declared by the Board of Directors. Final dividends are recognized as a liability in the period in
which they are approved by the shareholders in a general meeting.
Share Premium: Represents the excess of consideration received over the nominal (par) value of shares
issued, less direct issue costs and related tax effects.
Foreign Currency Translation Reserve: Comprises all foreign currency differences arising from the
translation of the financial statements of foreign operations into the Group’s presentation currency.
Other Comprehensive Income (OCI) Reserves: Includes cumulative net changes in the fair value of equity
investments measured at Fair Value through Other Comprehensive Income (FVOCI) and effective cash flow
hedging reserves.
Retained Earnings: Represents accumulated unappropriated profits and losses from current and prior
periods, less dividend distributions and transfers to statutory reserves.
Revenue
The Group’s revenue streams involve the provision of business travel services and the provision of corporate
meetings and events for its customers.
To determine whether to recognise revenue, the Group follows the five-step process detailed within IFRS 15.
Revenue from contracts with customers is recognised when the Group satisfies a performance obligation for
a contracted service.
24
Reed & Mackay Holdings Limited
Notes to the Consolidated financial statements
for the year ended 31 January 2026
2.  Material accounting policies (continued)
Revenue (continued)
Performance obligations can be satisfied in a variety of ways upon successful completion of specific
obligation or as services are rendered. Revenue recognised is the value allocated to the satisfied
performance obligation over time or at a point in time excluding discounts, rebates, VAT and other sales
taxes.
The Group recognises revenue as follows:
• Transaction fees are charged to customers for selling and arranging travel and for travel
management services. The performance obligation is satisfied at the date the ticket is issued.
• Management fees are charged to customers for selling and arranging travel and for travel
management services. The performance obligation is satisfied over time as the customer
simultaneously receives and consumes the benefit of the service with no alternative use and for
which the Company is entitled to payment for the work performed to date.
• Commissions and fees are paid by customers and suppliers on tickets issues, sales and other
services based on contractual arrangements. The performance obligation is satisfied at a point in
time which is at the time of booking for flight or rail bookings and at the check in date or collection
date of the vehicle for hotel and car rental bookings.
• Variable commissions and fees are paid by the Group’s suppliers which are determined by meeting
volume targets detailed within the contractual arrangement. The performance obligation is satisfied
over time and is recognised to the extent that it is highly probable that a significant reversal in the
amount of cumulative revenue recognised will not occur when the uncertainty associated with the
variable consideration is subsequently resolved.
• Meeting and events income is derived from customers for the arrangement and management of
events and associated travel bookings based on contractual arrangements on an agent basis. The
performance obligation is typically at a point in time upon successful completion of the event.
However, for a small number of events whereby a significant portion of the arrangement and
management of the event has been provided to the customer prior to the successful completion of
the event, and where the Group has an enforceable right to payment for the work performed to date, 
the performance obligation is satisfied over time. This is based on the actual services provided to the
end of the reporting period relative to the total service to be provided. This is generally assessed by
reference to actual inputs of time and expenses as a proportion of the total expected inputs.
If the Group satisfies a performance obligation before it receives the consideration, this is reported either as
trade receivables or a contract asset in the Balance Sheet. The Group recognises a contract asset where
something other than the passage of time is required before the consideration is due in all other cases.
If the Group has received consideration in respect of unsatisfied performance obligations, the Group
recognises a contract liability.
Where the Group acts as agent rather than principal, revenue is recognised net of the pass-through costs to
customers, which means that revenue recognised is comprised solely of fees or commissions.
Foreign currency
Functional and presentational currency
The consolidated financial statements are presented in Pound Sterling. The assets and liabilities of foreign
operations that have different functional currencies, are translated into Pound Sterling at the foreign
exchange rate prevailing at the balance sheet date. The income and expenses of such undertakings are
translated at an average rate for the period. Exchange differences arising on translation for consolidation are

Foreign currency (continued)
recognised in other comprehensive income. They are released into profit or loss on disposal of the relevant
foreign operation.
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 balance sheet date, monetary assets and liabilities that are denominated in foreign currencies are
retranslated at the rates prevailing at the balance sheet date. Non-monetary assets and liabilities
denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the rate at the date of the transaction, or, if the asset or
liability is measured at fair value, the rate when that fair value was determined.
Any gain or loss arising from a change in exchange rate subsequent to the date of the transaction is reported
as an exchange gain or loss in the profit or loss, except to the extent that they relate to gains or losses on
non-monetary items recognised in other comprehensive income, when the related translation gain or loss is
also recognised in other comprehensive income.
Employee benefits
Short-term benefits including holiday pay and annual bonuses are accrued as services are rendered.
Contributions to defined contribution pension schemes are charged to profit or loss as they become payable
in accordance with the rules of the scheme. Differences between contributions payable in the year and those
actually paid are shown as either accruals or prepayments in the balance sheet.
Share-based payments
The Group’s ultimate parent company, Navan Inc, operates group share award schemes under which certain
employees of the Company are awarded equity-settled share awards or restricted stock units (“RSUs”).
Additionally, the Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“ESPP”) allows eligible employees to contribute a portion
of their salaries via payroll deductions up to an agreed maximum amount set by the ultimate parent company
which will be used to purchase common stock at a discount to the market price per share. The Group has no
obligation to settle the awards.
Where share awards are awarded to employees, the fair value of the awards at the date of the grant is
charged to profit or loss over the vesting period. Non-market vesting conditions are taken into account by
adjusting the number of equity instruments expected to vest at each balance sheet date so that, ultimately,
the cumulative amount recognised over the vesting period is based on the number of awards that eventually
vest.
Market vesting conditions are factored into the fair value of the awards granted. The cumulative expense is
not adjusted for failure to achieve a market vesting condition. The fair value of the award also takes into
account non-vesting conditions. These are either factors beyond the control of either party (such as a target
based on an index) or factors which are within the control of one or other of the parties (such as the ultimate
parent company keeping the scheme open or the employee maintaining any contributions required by the
scheme).
Where the terms and conditions of awards are modified before they vest, the increase in the fair value of the
awards, measured immediately before and after the modification, is also charged to profit or loss over the
remaining vesting period.
Where equity instruments are granted to persons other than employees, retained earnings is charged with
the fair value of goods and services received.

2.  Material accounting policies (continued)
Finance income
Finance income is recognised in the profit or loss using the effective interest method.
Finance costs
Finance costs are charged to the profit or loss over the term of the debt using the effective interest rate
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.
Current and deferred taxation
The tax expense for the period comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the profit or loss,
except that a charge attributable to an item of income or 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 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 Group operates and generate taxable
income.
Deferred tax balances are recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not
reversed by the balance sheet 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.
Goodwill
Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of a business combination over the fair value of the Group’s
share of the net identifiable assets of the acquired business at the date of acquisition. Goodwill on
acquisitions of businesses is included in Intangible assets. Gains and losses on the disposal of a business
include the carrying amount of goodwill relating to the business sold.
Goodwill is treated as having an indefinite life and is therefore not amortised but is reviewed for impairment
at least annually. For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill is allocated to each of the Group’s cash-
generating units expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination.
The cash generating unit to which goodwill has been allocated is tested for impairment 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. An impairment recognised for goodwill is not
reversed in a subsequent period.

2.  Material accounting policies (continued)
Other intangible assets
Intangible assets are initially measured at cost. After recognition, intangible assets are measured at cost less
any accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses.
Amortisation is provided at the following basis using the straight-line method:
Customer relationships and Technology
-
3 to 20 years
Third-party software and software development
-
3 years
Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment 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.
Depreciation is provided on the following basis using the straight-line method:
Leasehold improvements
-
5 years
Fixtures and fittings
-
4 years
IT equipment
-
3 years
The assets' residual values, useful lives and depreciation methods are reviewed, and adjusted prospectively
if appropriate, 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 within ‘other operating income or losses' in profit or loss.
Leases
At inception of a contract, the Group assesses whether a contract is, or contains, a lease based on whether
the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for
consideration. The Group recognises a right of use asset and a lease liability at the lease commencement
date except for short term leases with a lease term of 12 months or less or leases of low value assets. For
these leases, the Group recognises the lease payments in the profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the
term of the lease.
The right of use asset is initially measured based on the initial amount of the lease liability adjusted for any
lease payments made at or before the commencement date, plus any initial direct costs incurred, less any
lease incentives received. Subsequently, the asset is measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and
impairment losses. The asset is depreciated over the term of the lease using the straight-line method.
At each reporting date, the Group assesses whether there is any indication of impairment. Any impairment
loss is recognised immediately in the profit or loss.
28
Reed & Mackay Holdings Limited
Notes to the Consolidated financial statements
for the year ended 31 January 2026
2.  Material accounting policies (continued)
Leases (continued)
The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid 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 for the same term as the underlying lease. Lease
payments included in the measurement of lease liabilities comprise fixed payments less any lease incentives
receivable and variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate as at the commencement date.
Subsequently, the lease liability is measured by increasing the carrying amount to reflect interest expensed
using the effective interest method and reducing the carrying amount for lease payments made. Lease
modifications result in remeasurement of the lease liability.
Impairment of non-financial assets
Assets that are subject to depreciation or amortisation are assessed at each reporting date to determine
whether there is any indication that the assets are impaired. Where there is any indication that an asset may
be impaired, the carrying value of the asset (or cash generating unit to which the asset has been allocated)
is tested for impairment. An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the asset's carrying
amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset's (or cash
generating unit’s) fair value less costs to sell and value in use. For the purposes of assessing impairment,
assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash flows (cash-
generating unit). Non-financial assets that have been previously impaired are reviewed at each reporting
date to assess whether there is any indication that the impairment losses recognised in prior periods may no
longer exist or may have decreased.
Financial Instruments
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised in the Group's balance sheet when the Group
becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Financial assets and financial liabilities are
initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of
financial assets and financial liabilities (other than financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value through
profit or loss) are added to or deducted from the fair value of the financial assets or financial liabilities, as
appropriate, on initial recognition. Initial recognition of trade receivables is at their transaction price if the
trade receivables do not contain a significant financing component.
Financial assets
Classification
All financial assets are held at amortised cost in line with the Group’s business model to hold to collect
contractual cash flows and whose contractual terms give rise to cash flows on specified dates that represent
solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amounts. The Group has not designated any assets
at fair value through profit or loss.
Impairment
At each reporting date, the Group recognises loss allowances for expected credit losses (“ECL”) for all
financial assets held at amortised cost. At initial recognition, the Group records loss allowances at an amount
equal to 12-month ECL. If there is evidence of a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition, the
allowance is increased to record the lifetime. When determining whether credit risk has increased
significantly, the Group considers reasonable and supportive information that is relevant and available
without undue cost or effort.
29
Reed & Mackay Holdings Limited
Notes to the Consolidated financial statements
for the year ended 31 January 2026
2.  Material accounting policies (continued)
Financial Instruments (continued)
Trade receivables and contract assets are short-term in nature and do not contain significant financing
components. The Group has applied a practical expedient by using a provision matrix based on the ageing
and actual credit loss experience to calculate lifetime ECL. This has been adjusted for factors specific to the
underlying client, general economic conditions and forward-looking estimates.
Financial liabilities
All financial liabilities except for contingent consideration are held at amortised cost.
Contingent consideration is initially recognised at fair value and re-measured at fair value at each reporting
date. During the 12 months following acquisition, adjustments to goodwill are made to reflect any revisions to
fair value measurements that would have adjusted the amounts recognised had they been known at the
acquisition date. Any fair value changes arising beyond 12 months or explicitly linked to events subsequent
to the acquisition date are recognised in the profit or loss.
Borrowings are initially recognised at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred, and subsequently
measured at amortised cost.
Offsetting
Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount is presented in the Balance Sheet when the
Group has a legal right to offset the amounts and intends to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and
settle the liability simultaneously.
Provisions
Provisions are made where an event has taken place that gives the Group a legal or constructive obligation
that probably requires settlement by a transfer of economic benefits, and a reliable estimate can be made of
the amount of the obligation.
Provisions are charged as an expense to profit or loss in the year that the Group becomes aware of the
obligation, and are measured at the best estimate at the reporting date of the expenditure required to settle
the obligation, taking into account relevant risks and uncertainties.
When payments are eventually made, they are charged to the provision carried in the balance sheet.
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.

3.  Critical accounting judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty
The preparation of financial statements requires the use of certain critical accounting judgements and
estimates regarding the future. Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated based on historical
experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable
under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The judgements and estimates that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying
amounts of assets and liabilities of the Group are outlined below.
Critical accounting judgements
Recognition of software development costs as intangible assets
Software development costs are capitalised as intangible assets when the Group determines that the
corresponding enhancements to the booking platform meet the required criteria for capitalisation at each
stage of development. The Group makes an assessment to reliably determine the software development
costs which are capitalised in the year, including relevant employee costs. This is subject to an element of
judgement, in particular determining which projects meet the capitalisation criteria and estimation of the
relevant employee costs to capitalise based on the proportion of time each employee contributed to the
projects in the year. Any variation in these judgements could result in a material difference to the recorded
value of the capitalised software development costs as intangible assets. The total expense capitalised as
software development intangible assets during the year ended 31 January 2026 is £2,105,000 (2025:
£2,522,000).
Key sources of estimation uncertainty
Share-based payments
In determining the fair value of equity-settled share-based payments, the ultimate parent company makes
assumptions about future events and market conditions. In particular, the ultimate parent company has to
assess the likely number of shares that will vest and the fair value of each award granted by the ultimate
parent company. The fair value is determined by an independent expert using a valuation model which is
dependent on a number of assumptions including future volatility in the share price of the ultimate parent
company’s shares. These assumptions are inherently uncertain and could result in a material difference to
the recorded value of the share-based payment charge. The total expense recognised for share-based
payments in respect of employee services rendered during the year ended 31 January 2026 is £5,901,000
(2025 (restated): £9,623,000).
Recognition of variable commissions and fees
Variable commissions and fees paid by the Company’s suppliers are determined by meeting contractual
volume targets. At year-end, the Company makes an assessment to reliably estimate the revenue by taking
into account evidence including past experience, year to date supplier confirmations of transaction volumes
and post year-end confirmation of transaction volumes. These assumptions are inherently uncertain and
could result in a material difference to the reported value of variable commissions and fees.

4.  First-time adoption of IFRS
These are the Group’s first financial statements prepared in accordance with UK-adopted international
accounting standards (“IFRS”). For periods up to and including the year ended 31 January 2025 the Group
prepared its financial statements in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102 “The Financial
Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (“FRS 102”).
Accordingly, the Group has prepared financial statements that comply with IFRS (as described in the
material accounting policies in Note 2) for the year ended 31 January 2026 the comparative information
presented in these financial statements for the year ended 31 January 2025 and an opening IFRS
Consolidated Balance Sheet at 1 February 2024 (the Group’s date of transition to IFRS).
In preparing it’s opening IFRS consolidated Balance Sheet, the Group has adjusted amounts reported
previously in financial statements prepared in accordance with its old basis of accounting (FRS 102). An
explanation of how the transition from FRS 102 to Adopted IFRSs has affected the Group’s financial position,
financial performance and cash flows is set out below.
Exemptions applied and related considerations
IFRS 1 allows first-time adopters exemptions from the retrospective application of certain requirements
under IFRS.
The Group has applied the following exemptions:
a) The Group has taken advantage of the exemption from retrospectively applying IFRS 3 to past
business combinations which occurred prior to the date of transition at 1 February 2024. Accordingly.
the cost of goodwill in the Consolidated Balance Sheet at 1 February 2024 is based on the carrying
amount in accordance with the requirements of FRS 102.
b) The Group has taken advantage of the exemption from retrospectively applying IAS 21 in relation to
cumulative translation differences. Cumulative currency translation differences for all foreign
operations are therefore deemed to £Nil as at 1 February 2024.
c) The Group has taken advantage of IFRS 1 paragraph D9 which provides first-time adopters with
exemptions from IFRS 16 Leases relating to lease payments with leases for which the lease term
ends within 12 months of the date of transition to IFRS and leases for which the underlying asset is
of low value.
These leases have been recognised as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
d) The Group has also taken advantage of IFRS 1 paragraph D9 which provides first-time adopters the
ability to apply hindsight when determining the lease term when applying IFRS 16 Leases if the
lease contract contains option to extend or terminate the lease. Where applicable, the Group has
determined the lease term at the date of transition using this hindsight if the Group has exercised the
option to extend or terminate a lease since the date of transition.
e) The Group has elected to apply the transitional provisions in paragraphs C5 and C6 of IFRS 15
Revenue from Contracts with Customers. In these paragraphs, references to the “date of initial
application” shall be interpreted as the beginning of the first IFRS reporting period (i.e. 1 February
2024).
Additionally, the Group is not required to restate contracts that were completed before the earliest
period presented (i.e. completed before 1 February 2024) A completed contract is a contract for
which the Group has all of the goods or services identified in accordance with FRS 102.

Estimates
The estimates applied at 1 February 2024 and at 31 January 2025 are consistent with those made for the
same dates in accordance with FRS 102 (after adjustments to reflect any differences in accounting policies
as detailed below and in Note 2).

ended 31 January 2025
A) Recognition of goodwill arising on historical business combinations
Under FRS 102, goodwill arising on business combinations is deemed to have a finite useful life and
therefore is subject to amortisation on a straight-line basis. Under IAS 38, goodwill is treated as having an
indefinite life and is therefore not amortised but is reviewed for impairment at least annually.
At the end date of transition, the Group identified goodwill arising on historic business combinations. As
noted above, the Group has elected to apply the transition exemption in IFRS 1 to not apply IFRS 3 to any
business combinations prior to the date of transition. Therefore, the Group has deemed the cost of goodwill
to be the net carrying value at 1 February 2024 of £24,649,000.
As a result at 31 January 2025, the Group reversed the amortisation charge of £3,310,000 which had been
recognised in Administrative expenses.
Furthermore, the directors have performed an impairment test at 1 February 2024 and 31 January 2025 and
have not recognised an impairment charge.
B) Recognition of acquisition-related costs incurred by the Group to effect business combinations
Under FRS 102, acquisition-related costs incurred by the Group to effect a business combination are
capitalised on the Balance Sheet on completion of the transaction. Under IFRS 3, acquisition-related costs
are expensed to the profit or loss.

4.  First-time adoption of IFRS (continued)
Notes to the reconciliation of equity as at 1 February 2024 and 31 January 2025, total
comprehensive income for the year ended 31 January 2025 and cash flows for the year
ended 31 January 2025 (continued)
B) Recognition of acquisition-related costs incurred by the Group to effect business combinations
(continued)
At the date of transition, as noted above, the Group applied the exemption in IFRS 1 to not apply IFRS 3 to
any business combinations prior to the date of transition. Therefore, no adjustments have been recognised
on the date of transition.
During the year ended 31 January 2025, the Group acquired Regent International S.R.L. on 4 June 2024
and incurred acquisition-related costs that were capitalised  on the Balance Sheet. These costs amounted to
£264,000 and therefore the Group has reduced the goodwill of Regent International S.R.L. and recognised
the expense within Administrative expenses.
C) Recognition of fair value adjustments to contingent consideration
Under FRS 102, adjustments to the contingent consideration initially recognised at the date of the business
combination resulted in an adjustment to the goodwill recognised on the Balance Sheet. Under IFRS 9, any
fair value changes arising beyond 12 months or explicitly linked to events subsequent to the acquisition date
are recognised in the profit or loss.
At the date of transition, as noted above, the Group applied the exemption in IFRS 1 to not apply IFRS 3 to
any business combinations prior to the date of transition. Therefore, no adjustments have been recognised
to the contingent consideration or goodwill recognised on the Balance Sheet.
During the year ended 31 January 2025, the Group settled the contingent consideration in relation to a
historic acquisition. The settlement of this liability resulted in an adjustment to reduce the cost of goodwill by
£36,000 in line with the final cash payment to the sellers. Therefore, the Group has increased the cost of
goodwill by £36,000 and recorded the credit arising from this fair value adjustment within Administrative
expenses.
D) Presentation of contingent and deferred consideration
Under FRS 102, the Group historically presented contingent and deferred consideration together within
Trade and other payables. Given the specific requirements under IFRS 9 regarding the subsequent
recognition of contingent consideration, the Group has presented contingent consideration separately from
deferred consideration.
As a result, at the date of transition deferred consideration has reduced from £303,000 to £Nil and contingent
consideration has increased from £Nil to £303,000. At 31 January 2025, deferred consideration has
decreased from £585,000 to £518,000 and contingent consideration has increased from £Nil to £67,000.
E) Recognition of Right of use assets and lease liabilities arising on the acquisition of Regent
International S.R.L. on 4 June 2024
Under FRS 102, a lease is classified as a finance lease or an operating lease. Operating lease payments are
recognised within Administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income on a
straight-line basis over the lease term. Under IFRS 16, a lessee applies a single recognition and
measurement approach for all leases, except for short-term leases and leases of low-value assets and
recognises Lease Liabilities to make lease payments and Right of use assets representing the right to use
the underlying assets.
At the date of acquisition, the Group have identified lease liabilities relating to its office premises in Italy and
recalculated the lease liabilities at the acquisition date by measuring the present value of all of the lease

ended 31 January 2025 (continued)
E) Recognition of Right of use assets and lease liabilities arising on the acquisition of Regent

payments, discounted using the lessee’s incremental borrowing rate. The discounted liabilities, the amount
remaining as of the date of acquisition, were recognised accordingly. Right of use assets were measured at
the amount equal to the lease liabilities adjusted by the amount of any prepaid or accrued lease payments.
As a result, at 4 June 2024, the Group recognised lease Liabilities of £162,000, Right of use assets of
£170,000 and a deferred tax asset arising on adoption of IFRS 16 of £2,000. The difference of £10,000
between lease liabilities and right of use assets has been recognised in Retained Earnings.
Upon recognition of the Right of use assets and Lease liabilities, the Group did not identify any balances
previously recognised in Prepayments and Accruals under FRS 102 that required reversing.
Under IFRS 3, this has reduced the identifiable net assets at the date of acquisition by £10,000 and therefore
the Group has reduced the goodwill by £10,000,
Subsequent to the recognition of the Right of use assets and Lease liabilities, rent expense decreased by
£59,000, depreciation of right of use assets increased by £61,000 (both included in Administrative expenses)
and Interest on lease liabilities increased by £10,000 for the year ended 31 January 2025.
Included in the Trade and other payables balance at 1 February 2024 is a current tax liability of £1,589,000.
F) Recognition of Right of use assets and lease liabilities
Under FRS 102, a lease is classified as a finance lease or an operating lease. Operating lease payments are
recognised within Administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income on a
straight-line basis over the lease term. Under IFRS 16, a lessee applies a single recognition and
measurement approach for all leases, except for short-term leases and leases of low-value assets and
recognises Lease Liabilities to make lease payments and Right of use assets representing the right to use
the underlying assets.
At the date of the transition, the Group identified lease liabilities relating to it’s offices in Australia, Spain and
the UK and identified new lease liabilities that arose during the year ended 31 January 2025 for office
premises in India and France. The Group recalculated the lease liabilities at either the date of transition or
lease inception date by measuring the present value of all of the lease payments, discounted using the
lessee’s incremental borrowing rate. The discounted liabilities, the amount remaining as of the start of the
conversion period, were recognised accordingly. Right of use assets were measured at the amount equal to
the lease liabilities adjusted by the amount of any prepaid or accrued lease payments.
As a result at 31 January 2025, the Group recognised Lease Liabilities of £4,788,000 (1 February 2024:
£5,277,000) and Right of use assets of £4,145,000 (1 February 2024: £4,833,000). The difference between
lease liabilities and right of use assets has been recognised in Retained Earnings.
Upon recognition of the Right of use assets and Lease liabilities, balances previously recognised in
Prepayments and Accruals had to be reversed. At 31 January 2025, the Group reversed £162,000 (1
February 2024: £18,400) of Prepayments and £581,000 (1 February 2024: £578,000) of Accruals at adoption
of IFRS.

4.  First-time adoption of IFRS (continued)
Additionally, rent expense decreased by £1,074,000, depreciation of right of use assets increased by
£1,206,000 (both included in Administrative expenses) and Interest on lease liabilities increased by £353,000
for the year ended 31 January 2025.
Included in the Trade and other receivables balance at 1 February 2024 is a current tax asset of £272,000.
G) Reduction in dilapidations provisions recognised at 1 February 2024
As noted above, the Group elected to apply the transition exemption in IFRS 1 and has applied hindsight
when adopting IFRS 16 at the date of transition and considering the recognition of dilapidation provisions
associated with its leases.
At the date of transition, the Group identified dilapidation provisions associated with certain leases that
expired during the year ended 31 January 2025. The actual dilapidations paid on vacation of these leases 
was £147,000 lower than the provision held on the Balance Sheet and therefore was recognised as a credit
within Administrative expenses during the year ended 31 January 2025.
As the Group has elected to apply the transition exemption, the dilapidations provisions for these leases
have been reduced by £147,000 at the date of transition. Subsequently, the £147,000 previously recognised
under FRS 102 has been reversed from administrative expenses for the year ended 31 January 2025.
H) Reclassification of foreign currency translation reserve
Under FRS 102, foreign currency movements arising on consolidation of foreign operations were included in
equity as part of Retained earrings. Under IAS 21, foreign currency movements are presented within a
separate reserve as a component of equity.
At the date of transition, as noted above, the Group elected to apply the transition exemption in IFRS 1 and
the cumulative translation differences for all foreign operations are deemed to be £Nil.
As a result at 31 January 2025, the Group reclassified a debit of £99,000 (1 February 2024: debit of £13,000)
from Retained earnings to the Foreign currency translation reserve.
I) Presentation of discontinued operations in the Statement of Comprehensive Income
As part of the Group’s ongoing strategy to focus on core activities and streamline the global operations of the
wider Navan Group, the Group has discontinued certain operations during the year ended 31 January 2026.
As required under IFRS 5, the Statement of Comprehensive Income has been re-presented for the year
ended 31 January 2025 to separately classify the profit after tax from discontinued operations. See Note 14
for further information.
J) Presentational reclassification of certain costs allocated to Administrative expenses to Cost of
Sales
During the first-time adoption of IFRS, the Group reviewed the classification of expenses in line with the
requirements of IAS 1. The Group that £370,000 of expenses that were incurred in relation to the generation
of revenue had been recognised within Administrative expenses under FRS 102 for the year ended 31
January 2025. Therefore, the Group has recognised a presentational reclassification of this balance out of
Administrative Expenses into Cost of Sales.

ended 31 January 2025 (continued)
K) Recognition of share-based payments expense
Under FRS 102, the expense for share-based payments for awards subject to graded vesting was
recognised on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. Under IFRS 2, each tranche of a graded vesting
award is treated as a separate grant with the fair value calculated and expensed over the specific vesting
period of that individual tranche. This results in an accelerated recognition of the share-based payment
expense, front-loading the expense into the earlier years of the award.
5.  Segment information
The Group considers there to be one single operating segment which is monitored and reported to the Chief
Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”), being the Chief Executive Officer. This judgement is based on the fact
that the Group provides similar products and services to all customers and the key performance indicators
are consolidated revenue and operating profit for the year.
Revenue analysed by geographical region of service provided can be found in Note 6.
The Group is not reliant on any one client or group of connected clients for the generation of revenue.

Impairment - Goodwill
The Group allocates goodwill to groups of cash generating units based on the lowest level at which goodwill
is monitored by management. Each geographical market represents a group of cash generating units for the
Group’s operations.
The net carrying value of cash generating units which are considered significant to the Group are as follows:

The Group is required to test, on an annual basis, whether goodwill has suffered any impairment. The
recoverable amounts of the cash generating unit to which goodwill has been allocated have been determined
based on the expected value in use of the underlying cash generating unit. The value in use calculation
takes into account estimated future cash flows which are discounted using a pre-tax discount rate
considering 5-year forecasts which are extrapolated into perpetuity after 5 years based on estimated long-
term growth rates. The key assumptions in the value in use calculation includes the long-term growth rate
and pre-tax discount rate.
The 5-year forecasts contain projected forecasts for revenue growth and cost growth which are based on
past experience and expectations of future changes in the market, including the prevailing economic climate
and global economy.
The long-term growth rate of 2.0% (2025: 2.0%) is based on historical experience and inflation forecasts
published by recognised bodies.
Pre-tax nominal discount rates that reflect the current market assessment of the time value of money are
derived from the Group's post-tax weighted average cost of capital, adjusted for specific risks relating to
each geographical region Risk-free rates are based on government bond rates, adjusted for each
geographical region, equity risk premiums and betas based on data from recognised bodies.
The pre-tax discount relating to the cash generating units which are considered significant to the Group are
as follows:

16.  Business combinations
On 4 June 2024, the Group further expanded its international presence and operations through the
acquisition of 100% of the shareholding of Regent International S.R.L., an Italian business travel and events
management company. This continues the Group’s M&A strategy, which aims to identify strong businesses
with a like-minded client focus.
The total consideration was £6,298,000 and an Initial cash consideration of £5,146,000 was paid on
completion. The transaction also included deferred consideration of £1,152,000 which was payable in cash.
The transaction also included contingent consideration payable in cash between £Nil and £1,200,000 and is
contingent on future trading performance of the business. As this payment was subject to forfeiture in the
event that employment terminates, it was considered to be a payment for post-combination services rather
than additional consideration for the business combination. This was charged as an expense over 20 months
from the date of acquisition.

Future cash outflows in periods after the date on which an extension option or termination option may be
exercised are only included in lease liabilities if it is reasonably certain that a lease will be extended or will
not be terminated.
At the Balance Sheet date, the carrying amounts of lease liabilities are not reduced by the amount of
payments that would be avoided from exercising break clauses because it was considered reasonably
certain that the Company would not exercise its right to exercise any right to break the lease. Total lease
payments of £Nil (2025: £Nil) are potentially avoidable were the group to exercise break clauses at the
earliest opportunity.

Bank loans relate to the following:
• A bank loan of £305,000 (2025: £564,000) which is repayable in monthly instalments and fully
repayable by June 2027 and bears interest at 0.57%. Despite the payment term, this loan has been
classified within Current liabilities in prior years as the terms of the loan state that the loan could be
repayable on demand.
• A bank loan of £Nil (2025: £69,000) was repayable in monthly instalments and was fully repaid in
April 2025 and bore interest at 1.08%.
ABL Facility
On 14 March 2025, the Group’s subsidiary Reed & Mackay Travel Limited entered into a joint asset-backed
revolving credit facility (“ABL facility”) with its parent company. The facility has a combined borrowing limit of
USD $100,000,000, incurs interest at SOFR plus 2.5% and matures in March 2028. The facility available for
drawdown by the joint borrowers is based on eligible trade receivables. The Group and its parent company
have the right to voluntarily prepay down at any time the facility in full. All cashflows related to the ABL facility
including drawdowns and prepayments of borrowed funds, interest payments and associated costs are
covered by the parent company. Therefore, ordinarily no expense or cashflows related to the ABL facility will
be reflected in the Group’s Statement of Comprehensive Income or Statement of Cash Flows.
However, during the first year of the ABL facility, the Group is required to report within its financial statements
the associated interest expense and the facility drawn at the end of the reporting period based on the
Group’s share of eligible trade receivables. Given all cashflows related to the ABL facility are covered by the
parent company, the on-lending of the Group’s share of the borrowings is recognised within Loans owed by
parent undertakings in Trade and other receivables as detailed in Note 19. This loan facility is unsecured,
incurs interest at SOFR plus 3.5% and matures on the first anniversary of the ABL facility. Therefore, no
cashflows related to the on lending of the Group’s share of the borrowed funds are recognised within the
Statement of Cash Flows except for the interest receivable from the parent company arising from the 1%
margin difference between the interest paid on the ABL facility compared to the interest rate applied by the
Group to the on lent borrowings. This 1% margin difference has been received by the Group as a cash inflow
during the year and therefore is recognised within Interest received in the Statement of Cash Flows.
At 31 January 2026, the Group had no funds drawn from this facility (2025: £Nil).

Reorganisation:The provision relates principally to severance costs arising from the announced restructuring.
The associated cash outflows are expected to occur during FY27. The amount and timing remain subject to
approval whilst the Group’s customers transition to the Navan platform under the Navan brand.
TOMS (Tour Operating Margin Scheme): the provision reflects management’s best estimate of the potential
obligation arising from uncertainty over the application of TOMS to certain products and services. The final
amount may differ from the provision because of interest rates and applicable travel sales.
Dilapidations: the provision represents estimated costs of reinstating leased properties at the end of the
respective lease terms. Cash outflows are therefore expected as the relevant leases expire over the next
three years. The ultimate costs are subject to uncertainty regarding the condition of the properties at exit and
final settlement with landlords.

Navan Inc 2015 Equity Incentive Plan
The Group’s parent company, Navan Inc, operates a group share awards scheme (known as the 2015 Equity
Incentive Plan) under which certain employees of the Group are awarded equity-settled share awards or
restricted stock awards (“RSUs”). The Group has no obligation to settle the awards.
The share awards are conditional upon continued employment typically over the vesting period with one-
quarter of the share awards vesting on the first anniversary of the grant date and the remaining three-
quarters of the share awards vesting evenly over the remaining three-year period to the fourth anniversary of
the grant date.
The share awards are conditional upon continued employment typically over the vesting period with one-
quarter of the share awards vesting on the first anniversary of the grant date and the remaining three-
quarters of the share awards vesting evenly over the remaining three-year period to the fourth anniversary of
the grant date.
The RSUs are conditional upon continued employment typically over the vesting period with one quarter of
the RSUs vesting on the first anniversary of the grant date and the remaining three quarters of the RSUs
vesting evenly over the remaining three year period to the first anniversary of the grant date. Additionally, the
RSUs were only exercisable on an exit event. This condition was satisfied upon the initial public offering
(“IPO”) of the parent company on 30 October 2025.
Navan Inc 2025 Equity Incentive Plan
The Group’s parent company, Navan Inc, operates a group share awards scheme (known as the 2025 Equity
Incentive Plan) under which certain employees of the Group are awarded restricted stock awards (“RSUs”).
The Group has no obligation to settle the awards.
The RSUs are conditional upon continued employment over the typical vesting period with one quarter of the
RSUs vesting on the first anniversary of the grant date and the remaining three quarters of the RSUs vesting
evenly over the remaining three year period to the first anniversary of the grant date.
Employee Stock Purchase Plan
The Group’s parent company, Navan Inc, operates a group scheme (known as the Employee Stock
Purchase Plan (“ESPP”)) under which eligible employees are able to contribute a portion of their salaries via
payroll deductions up to an agreed maximum amount set by the parent company which will be used to
purchase common stock at a discount to the market price per share.
Assumptions
The fair value of the equity-settled share options and ESPP granted is estimated at the grant date using the
Black-Scholes model, taking into account the terms and conditions upon which the awards were granted.
The fair value of the equity-settled RSUs granted pre-IPO was estimated at the grant date using an
independent expert. Post-IPO, the fair value of RSUs granted is determined using the using the closing price
of Navan Inc’s common stock at the grant date.

Credit Risk
Credit risk represents the loss which the Group would incur if a customer or counterparty failed to perform its
contractual obligations. This risk is well diversified so the Group has no significant exposure to credit risk. At
the balance sheet date, there were no significant concentrations of credit risk external to the Group. The
exposure to credit risk is monitored on an ongoing basis.
The carrying amount of financial assets recorded in the financial statements, which is net of impairment
losses and ignores any security deposits held, represents the Group's maximum exposure to credit risk.
The primary source of credit risk arises from the Group’s trade receivables. This is managed through
maintaining a diverse client base with an appropriate credit rating where clients wish to trade on credit terms

29.  Financial risk management (continued)
Credit Risk (continued)
and are typically made up of large national or multinational groups where the risk of default is considered
low.
Cash and cash equivalents
The Group has exposures to a range of financial institutions through its cash management operations. The
Group deems this risk to be low given funds are placed on deposit with counterparties with high credit ratings
assigned by international credit rating agencies. Any changes in risk exposure are continually monitored and
should market conditions dictate, the Group will implement mitigating actions such as withdrawal of funds.
Trade Payables
The carrying amounts of trade payables & other payables approximate their fair values at the reporting date,
as amortized cost reflects expected cash flows within normal commercial terms (under 12 months) without
disproportionate operational complexity. However, for balances denominated in foreign currencies, carrying
values are retranslated at closing spot rates and do not capture forward rate fluctuations, settlement timing
variances, or conversion costs that may occur upon final realization.
Trade receivables
Trade receivables relate to fees that have been invoiced to, but not settled by, clients and suppliers. The
Group has policies in place to ensure that services are provided to clients with an appropriate credit history
where the Group is trading with clients on credit terms. In certain circumstances, the Group will also obtain
security from clients in the form of deposits. Where trade receivables are impaired, in view of normal client
payment patterns, full provision is made against any such trade receivables. The collection of receivables is
monitored on an ongoing basis by credit control. As a preventative measure, senior management periodically
reviews potential bad debts and takes appropriate risk mitigating action at local levels.
The Group measures expected credit losses on trade receivables and contract assets using a provision
matrix based on historical credit-loss experience, adjusted for factors specific to customers and current and
forecast economic conditions.
Receivables with similar credit-risk characteristics are grouped by ageing brackets (specifically: current, 1–
180 days, 180–365 days, and greater than 365 days past due). Expected loss rates are estimated based on
historical observed default rates over the expected life of the trade receivables and are adjusted for forward-
looking information. Specifically, trade receivables aged between 180 and 365 days are provided for at a rate
of 50%, and trade receivables aged above 365 days are provided for at a rate of 100%.
Forward-looking information considered in determining expected credit losses includes relevant
macroeconomic indicators such as general GDP growth, inflation rates, and industry-specific credit default
trends, alongside any specific customer risk assessments.
The Group considers a financial asset to be in default when a customer fails to make contractual payments
past 365 days, or when internal indicators suggest that the debtor is unlikely to pay its credit obligations in
full, as this reflects management's conservative assessment of recoverability and historical recovery
patterns.
There were no changes to the estimation techniques or significant assumptions during the year.
67
Reed & Mackay Holdings Limited
Notes to the Consolidated financial statements
for the year ended 31 January 2026
The Group applies the IFRS 9 simplified approach to measuring expected credit losses which uses a lifetime
expected loss allowance for trade receivables and contract assets. At the Balance Sheet date, the loss

Credit Risk (continued)
Maximum exposure to credit risk
The Group's on-balance sheet credit risk exposure at the Balance Sheet date, ignoring the value of any
collateral held, amounted to £117,254,000 (2025: £110,540,000).
Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk represents the risk that the Group cannot meet its financial obligations to repay financial
liabilities as they fall due. The Group manages this risk by maintaining adequate reserves, banking facilities
and reserve borrowing facilities, by continuously monitoring forecast and actual cash flows, and by matching
the maturity profiles of financial assets and liabilities.
As disclosed within Note 23, the Group has a joint asset-backed revolving credit facility (“ABL facility”) with
its parent company. Given all cashflows related to the ABL facility are covered by the parent company, the
Group excludes this facility when managing it’s liquidity risk.
Details of additional banking facilities, excluding the ABL facility, that the Group has at its disposal to further
reduce liquidity risk are set out below.

but still may have an expected maturity, are included in the 'over 5 years' category. Amounts that are either
repayable on demand or which have no contractual maturity, meaning there is no legally binding agreement
specifying a repayment date, are included in the 'less than 1 month' category.

Foreign exchange risk
The Group is exposed to foreign exchange risk on revenue, expenses and borrowings that are denominated
in a currency other than the functional currency of the relevant trading entity. The currencies in which these
transactions are primarily denominated in are US Dollar and Euro. The Group manages this risk by
continually monitoring the levels of expected foreign currency cash flows and as far as possible by creating a
natural hedge by matching cash inflows and outflows in foreign currencies. The Group has not entered into
any hedging arrangements to manage this risk.

Sensitivity Analysis
The following table demonstrates the sensitivity of the Group's financial instruments to a reasonable,
possible strengthening and weakening in exchange rates of 5% with all other variables held constant on the
profit before tax and equity. The sensitivity analysis has been performed on cash and cash equivalents,
interest bearing liabilities and lease liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the Balance Sheet date
only and is not reflective of the impact had the sensitivity rates been applied through the duration of the
years to 31 January 2026 and 2025.

Interest risk
The Group is exposed to interest rate risk on interest-bearing financial assets and interest-bearing financial
liabilities. The Group’s main interest rate exposure during the period arose on interest receivable on cash
deposited with financial institutions.
As disclosed in further detail in Note 23, the Group has a joint asset-backed revolving credit facility (“ABL
facility”) with its parent company. Given all cashflows related to the ABL facility are covered by the parent
company, the terms of the loan facility to on lend the Group’s share of the borrowings substantially mirrors
the terms of the ABL facility. Given, the risk associated with the variable interest rate has been naturally
hedged, the Group has concluded that significant changes in the interest rate would not result in a material
impact on the reported profit or equity of the Group.

of Ireland (“FRS 102”).
Accordingly, financial information at 1 February 2024 (being the date of transition) and for the year ended 31
January 2025 have been restated to comply with FRS 101. FRS 102 differs in certain respects from FRS
101, hence when preparing the financial statements, management has amended certain accounting and
measurement bases to comply with FRS 101. The disclosure required by IFRS 1 “First-time Adoption of
International Finance Reporting Standards (“IFRS”)’ concerning the transition is detailed in Note 45.
IFRS 1 permits the Company to take advantage of certain exemptions from applying the requirements on a
fully retrospective basis at the date of transition in certain circumstances.

34.  Basis of preparation (continued)
Disclosure exemptions applied (continued)
For the disclosure exemptions listed in points i), vi) and ix), the equivalent disclosures are included in the
consolidated financial statements on pages 16 to 73.
35.  Material accounting policies
Investments
Investments in subsidiaries are measured at cost less accumulated impairment.
Financial instruments
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised in the Company's balance sheet when the Company
becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Financial assets and financial liabilities are
initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of
financial assets and financial liabilities (other than financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value through
profit or loss) are added to or deducted from the fair value of the financial assets or financial liabilities, as
appropriate, on initial recognition. Initial recognition of trade receivables is at their transaction price if the
trade receivables do not contain a significant financing component.
Financial assets
Classification
All financial assets are held at amortised cost in line with the Company’s business model to hold to collect
contractual cash flows and whose contractual terms give rise to cash flows on specified dates that represent
solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amounts. The Company has not designated any
assets at fair value through profit or loss.
Impairment
At each reporting date, the Company recognises loss allowances for expected credit losses (“ECL”) for all
financial assets held at amortised cost. At initial recognition, the Company records loss allowances at an
amount equal to 12-month ECL. If there is evidence of a significant increase in credit risk since initial
recognition, the allowance is increased to record the lifetime. When determining whether credit risk has
increased significantly, the Company considers reasonable and supportive information that is relevant and
available without undue cost or effort.
Trade receivables and contract assets are short-term in nature and do not contain significant financing
components. The Company has applied a practical expedient by using a provision matrix based on the
ageing and actual credit loss experience to calculate lifetime ECL. This has been adjusted for factors specific
to the underlying client, general economic conditions and forward-looking estimates.
Financial liabilities
All financial liabilities except for contingent consideration are held at amortised cost.
Contingent consideration is initially recognised at fair value and re-measured at fair value at each reporting
date. During the 12 months following acquisition, adjustments to goodwill are made to reflect any revisions to
fair value measurements that would have adjusted the amounts recognised had they been known at the
acquisition date. Any fair value changes arising beyond 12 months or explicitly linked to events subsequent
to the acquisition date are recognised in the profit or loss.

35.  Material accounting policies (continued)
Financial instruments (continued)
Financial liabilities (continued)
Borrowings are initially recognised at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred, and subsequently
measured at amortised cost.
Offsetting
Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount is presented in the Balance Sheet when the
Company has a legal right to offset the amounts and intends to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset
and settle the liability simultaneously.
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.
36.  Critical accounting judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty
The preparation of financial statements requires the use of certain critical accounting judgements and
estimates regarding the future. Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated based on historical
experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable
under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The judgements and estimates that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying
amounts of assets and liabilities of the Company are outlined below.
Critical accounting judgements
Impairment of investments in subsidiaries
The Company assesses investments in subsidiaries for indicators of impairment at each reporting date.
Where indicators of impairment are identified, the recoverable amount of the relevant investment is
estimated and compared with its carrying amount. The recoverable amount is determined based on a
Discounted Cash Flow Model, using a 5 year forecast into perpetuity. Where the carrying amount exceeds
the recoverable amount, an impairment loss is recognised. At 31 January 2026 the carrying value of
investments in subsidiaries was £93,753,000 (2025 (restated): £93,785,000) , and management concluded
there are no indicators of impairment.
37.  Employees
The Company had no employees (2025: None) during the year.
38.  Directors' remuneration
The emoluments paid to the directors who provided services to the Company are provided in Note 10.

45.  First time adoption of FRS 101 (continued)
Recognition of acquisition-related costs incurred by the Company to effect business combinations
Under FRS 102, acquisition-related costs incurred by the Company to effect a business combination are
capitalised within investments on the Balance Sheet on completion of the transaction. Under IFRS 3,
acquisition-related costs.are expensed to the profit or loss.
At the date of transition, the Company applied the exemption in IFRS 1 to not apply IFRS 3 to any business
combinations prior to the date of transition. Therefore, no adjustments have been recognised on the date of
transition.
During the year ended 31 January 2025, the Company acquired Regent International S.R.L. on 4 June 2024
and incurred acquisition-related costs that were capitalised within investments on the Balance Sheet. These
costs amounted to £264,000 and therefore the Company has reduced it’s investment in Regent International
S.R.L. and recognised the expense within Administrative expenses.
Recognition of fair value adjustments to contingent consideration
Under FRS 102, adjustments to the contingent consideration initially recognised at the date of the business
combination resulted in an adjustment to the cost of the investment recognised on the Balance Sheet. Under
IFRS 9, any fair value changes arising beyond 12 months or explicitly linked to events subsequent to the
acquisition date are recognised in the profit or loss.
At the date of transition, the Company applied the exemption in IFRS 1 to not apply IFRS 3 to any business
combinations prior to the date of transition. Therefore, no adjustments have been recognised to the
contingent consideration or cost of investments recognised on the Balance Sheet.
During the year ended 31 January 2025, the Company settled the contingent consideration in relation to a
historic acquisition. The settlement of this liability resulted in an adjustment to reduce the cost of investment
by £36,000 in line with the final cash payment to the sellers. Therefore, the Company has increased the cost
of investment by £36,000 and recorded the credit arising from this fair value adjustment within Administrative
expenses.
Presentation of contingent and deferred consideration
Under FRS 102, the Company historically presented contingent and deferred consideration together within
Trade and other payables. Given the specific requirements under IFRS 9 regarding the subsequent
recognition of contingent consideration, the Company has presented contingent consideration separately
from deferred consideration.
As a result, at the date of transition deferred consideration has reduced from £303,000 to £Nil and contingent
consideration has increased from £Nil to £303,000. At 31 January 2025, deferred consideration has
decreased from £585,000 to £518,000 and contingent consideration has increased from £Nil to £67,000.
46.  Ultimate parent undertaking and controlling party
The ultimate parent undertaking, controlling party and the parent undertaking of the largest and smallest
group to include the Company in its group financial statements is Navan Inc, a company incorporated in the
United States of America. The registered address is 260 California Ave., Floor 2, Palo Alto, California 94306,
United States of America.
47. Post balance sheet events
On 31 July 2026, Reed & Mackay Travel Limited declared and paid an interim dividend of £4,000,000 to
Reed & Mackay Holdings Limited.
