STRATEGIC REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 APRIL 2018
The directors have the pleasure in presenting their strategic report for the year ended 30 April 2018.
The principal activity of the company during the year was the operation of a country house hotel, a destination for private and corporate special events.
The directors continue to be satisfied with the operations of the company. Over the last few years, very significant re-investment into the fabric of the assets has been successfully enabled to a level which, in percentage terms, is well above industry norms. This range has been between double and almost quadruple that of industry norms. The ability to maintain such reinvestment has been beneficial to the company, and as a result, the property is presented to an exceptionally high standard. The directors acknowledge these latest accounts show a year-on-year reduction in annual turnover. The directors acknowledge that this has been attributed to the timeline of a niche element of previous uncertainty in the marketplace, caused by the intended UK Brexit. Notwithstanding what does lie ahead due to the intended UK Brexit, the directors and management team have still nevertheless successfully managed to re-increase confirmed future diarised core trade bookings, with confidence therefore in all trading sustainability. Looking ahead, core trade diaries continue to be excellent, and the directors remain fully committed to ensuring this equilibrium and status quo is successfully maintained. Based upon diarised trade, the directors hope to anticipate a return to trade levels in the ballpark of those experienced in the previous year’s accounts.

BALBIRNIE HOUSE HOTEL LIMITED
STRATEGIC REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 APRIL 2018
As with all other companies operating in the hospitality sector, the directors acknowledge that there are many varied risks which the company faces. The directors acknowledge that the main risks include competition from competitors, maintaining a desire from the public for the use of the hotel, and disruption to the supply chain.
Furthermore, it is clear that due to Brexit, there will continue to be accelerating costs. Similarly and specifically stemming from Brexit, there is very significant general uncertainty in the UK Hospitality and Tourism sectors. The directors do not see why Scotland should be dragged out of the EU, given 62% of Scotland voted to remain in the EU. The directors are also saddened to see the loss of ability to employ EU nationals, as a significant proportion of company employees have always previously originated from within the EU. Despite the defined efforts of a majority of Scotland politicians over numerous years, Westminster-defined tourism VAT still remains vastly inflated above comparables in other EU countries. This significantly places Scotland’s Hospitality sector at a disadvantage. Initiated in 2015 without recourse to any UK Hospitality organisation, phased rises in UK National Minimum Wage, continues in the current 5 year spread at almost 40% increase. The directors consider that those price rises cannot be absorbed by customers, therefore the company has to continue to successfully define more efficient ways either in which to deploy human resources, or to introduce new technology which creates payroll efficiency. The directors also acknowledge that there is no defined government assistance, for contributing towards the maintenance, safeguarding and improvement of the main asset of the company, Balbirnie House itself. This is despite Balbirnie House being a National Treasure, Grade A Listed 1777 with national importance, which also doubles today as a very significant tourism tax generator. The directors mitigate these risks by focussing on cutting edge marketing using in-house digitalised platforms, and modern era automated efficiencies. Additionally, the company provides an excellent service to all guests, and has a reputation, and awards to back up the completely unique facilities. In 2018 the hotel achieved recognition as #SHA Scotland’s Wedding Hotel of the Year, for the twelfth time. Furthermore, via Haute Grandeur 2017 global awards: Europe’s Best Destination Wedding Hotel/ Europe’s Best Function Venue/ Europe’s Best Romantic Hotel. Writing this report as at mid November 2018, the hotel has now achieved further recognition via Haute Grandeur, as ‘Best Destination Wedding Retreat’, on a global level. The directors anticipate that this latest accolade may be productive for future trade. As part of the day to day running of the hotel, the directors are always looking at the services on offer and thinking of ways that the hotel can enhance these further, to give them a competitive edge. The directors have strived to build close relationships with all of the suppliers the hotel uses, with many of these relationships going back numerous years. The company's principal financial instruments comprise bank balances, loans to the company, and hire purchase/finance agreements. The main purpose of these instruments is to finance company operations Due to the nature of the financial instruments used by the company, there is no exposure to price risk. The company's approach to managing other risks applicable to the financial instruments concerned is detailed below.

BALBIRNIE HOUSE HOTEL LIMITED
STRATEGIC REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 APRIL 2018
In respect of bank balances, the liquidity risk is managed by maintaining such flexibility through use of overdrafts at floating rates of interest.
In respect of loans, these comprise loans from the directors and loans from financial institutions. The interest rate on the loans from financial institutions is fixed. The company manages the liquidity risk by ensuring there are sufficient funds to meet the payments. The loans from the directors are repayable on demand. The directors are aware of the company's required finance and have determined that these will only be repaid, when finance is available. In respect of hire purchase/finance lease assets, the liquidity risk in respect of these is managed to ensure sufficient funds are available to meet repayments.
The company operates in the hotel industry and aims to provide a first class service to the public. This includes being safety conscious, complying with health and safety regulations, and generally demanding high standards. It recognises the importance of, and has policies in place, to ensure its environmental, health and safety requirements are met at all times.
This report was approved by the board on 22 November 2018
and signed on its behalf.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE SHAREHOLDERS OF BALBIRNIE HOUSE HOTEL LIMITED (CONTINUED)
The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Annual Report, other than the financial statements and our Auditors' report thereon. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
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 such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether there is a material misstatement in 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 in this regard.
In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:
∙
the information given in the Strategic report and the Directors' report for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and
∙
the Strategic report and the Directors' report have been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.
In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Strategic report or the Directors' report.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE SHAREHOLDERS OF BALBIRNIE HOUSE HOTEL LIMITED (CONTINUED)
As explained more fully in the Directors' responsibilities statement on page 4, the directors are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, the directors are responsible for assessing the 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 company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an Auditors' report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.
A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council's website at:
www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities
. This description forms part of our Auditors' report.
This report is made solely to the company's members, as a body,
in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the company's members those matters we are required to state to them in an Auditors' report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the company and the company's members, as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

Accounting policies (continued)
Finance costs are charged to the Statement of income and retained earnings over the term of the debt using the effective interest method so that the amount charged is at a constant rate on the carrying amount. Issue costs are initially recognised as a reduction in the proceeds of the associated capital instrument.
All borrowing costs are recognised in the Statement of income and retained earnings in the year in which they are incurred.
Provisions are made where an event has taken place that gives the Company a legal or constructive obligation that probably requires settlement by a transfer of economic benefit, and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.
Provisions are charged as an expense to the Statement of Comprehensive Income in the year that the Company becomes aware of the obligation, and are measured at the best estimate at the Statement of Financial Position 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 Statement of Financial Position.
Defined contribution pension plan
The company operates a defined contribution plan for its employees. A defined contribution plan is a pension plan under which the company pays fixed contributions into a separate entity. Once the contributions have been paid the company has no further payment obligations.
The contributions are recognised as an expense in the Statement of income and retained earnings when they fall due. Amounts not paid are shown in accruals as a liability in the Statement of financial position. The assets of the plan are held separately from the company in independently administered funds.

Deferred tax balances are recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed by the Statement of financial position date, except that:
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.

Accounting policies (continued)
Depreciation is charged so as to allocate the cost of assets less their residual value over their estimated useful lives, using the straight-line method.
Depreciation is provided on the following basis:
The assets' residual values, useful lives and depreciation methods are reviewed, and adjusted prospectively if appropriate, or if there is an indication of a significant change since the last reporting date.
Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing the proceeds with the carrying amount and are recognised in the Statement of income and retained earnings.
Individual freehold and leasehold properties are carried at current year value at fair value at the date of the revaluation less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and subsequent accumulated impairment losses. Revaluations are undertaken with sufficient regularity to ensure the carrying amount does not differ materially from that which would be determined using fair value at the Statement of financial position date.
Fair values are determined from market based evidence normally undertaken by professionally qualified valuers.
Revaluation gains and losses are recognised in the Statement of income and retained earnings unless losses exceed the previously recognised gains or reflect a clear consumption of economic benefits, in which case the excess losses are recognised in profit or loss.
Stocks are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value, being the estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell. Cost is based on the cost of purchase on a first in, first out basis. Work in progress and finished goods include labour and attributable overheads.
At each reporting date, stocks are assessed for impairment. If stock is impaired, the carrying amount is reduced to its selling price less costs to complete and sell. The impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss.
Short term debtors are measured at transaction price, less any impairment. Loans receivable are measured initially at fair value, net of transaction costs, and are measured subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment.

Accounting policies (continued)
Cash is represented by cash in hand and deposits with financial institutions repayable without penalty on notice of not more than 24 hours. Cash equivalents are highly liquid investments that mature in no more than three months from the date of acquisition and that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash with insignificant risk of change in value.
In the Statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents are shown net of bank overdrafts that are repayable on demand and form an integral part of the company's cash management.
Short term creditors are measured at the transaction price. Other financial liabilities, including bank loans, are measured initially at fair value, net of transaction costs, and are measured subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
The most significant estimation within the company's financial statements relates to depreciation. The directors review depreciation rates on a regular basis to ensure that the policy rate remains appropriate.
The directors also require to exercise judgement in assessing recoverability of trade debtors and make appropriate provision where their credit control procedures indicate that trade debtor balances may not be fully recoverable.
