STRATEGIC REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2021
The directors present their Strategic Report for the year ended 31 December 2021.
Erwin Technologies UK Limited provided Enterprise Architectural software solutions that are complementary to the US based parent's products. The principal activities of the company include: the design and development of computer software; the sale of computer software and the provision of related consultancy and training services; performing sales, marketing, development and support services exclusively for its US based parent, which reimburses it for the cost of these services.
Over 350 corporations worldwide actively use the Casewise toolset to help document, model, articulate, visualise, communicate, measure their business processes, their business architectures and their systems. Helping large corporations understand better their operations, and how they can improve efficiency and effectiveness of those operations is at the heart of our DNA. For most organisations their ability to, compete, execute on their customer promises of time and quality, deliver an adequate return on their capital, provide confidence on their ability to comply, is totally dependent on the way their processes execute. Organisational processes are the key to organisational excellence. We provide many of our customers, the ability to draw and to test the road map of their journey to operational excellence, which is why we are critical to the success of the corporate world. During the year the activity of computer software and the provision of related consultancy and training services activities was transferred to a fellow group company. This resulted in turnover decreasing in the company for the year to £2,980,690 from £4,254,750. The loss for the financial year ended 31 December 2021 decreased to £190,787 from £343,789 in the previous year. This was due to a decreased operating loss mainly caused by the transfer of computer software sales and related support services activity to a fellow group company. Total net liabilities as at 31 December 2021 increased to £2,477,110 from £2,286,323 the previous year. At this time the future plans of the entity is to continue as a going concern for the foreseeable future, which management will continue to evaluate on an ongoing basis. On 24 May 2022 the company allotted 2,778,868 of new ordinary share of £1 each for par consideration. This resulted in an increase in the company's overall capital and reserves.

STRATEGIC REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2021
The management of the business and the nature of the company's strategy are subject to a number of risks. The directors of the business set out below the principal risks of the company:
A proportion of turnover related to customers outside the UK. As a company, we were therefore exposed to fluctuations in foreign currency. The director continually monitor this but at present do not believe that this risk necessitates the use of forward exchange contracts or other financial instruments, especially given that the sale of computer software and the provision of related consultancy and training services activities were transferred to a fellow group company. As the company will primarily operate to support other group companies, its main operating risk is managing operating expenses for the entity. The profit or loss of the entity can rise and fall depending on the company's ability to effectively manage its operating expenses. The BPA, EA and Compliance markets which the other group companies operate in are highly competitive with downward pressures on pricing. Policies of constant price monitoring and ongoing market research are in place to mitigate these risks. The Clearlake Capital Group, L.P. group, of which the company is a member of, is pursuing a strategy of providing end to end solutions in order to meet the needs of customers and this is a key part of the company’s risk mitigation approach. On 24 February 2022, after the balance sheet date, Russia invaded Ukraine, this may have implications for our business as supply chain issues and energy costs are affected globally. The company is exposed to these macroeconomic effects but it does not have direct exposure to Russia or Ukraine. The company continues to monitor the potential impact of the situation. The company uses a range of information technology and decision support systems for provision of key services, control procedures and financial management. These systems are constantly reviewed and updated to meet the needs of the company. Business continuity and disaster recovery planning is regularly assessed and tested to ensure the company is adequately resourced and maintains an appropriately robust environment including preventative processes on cybercrime. The company's operations are not exposed to significant financial risks. The company is exposed to any changes in UK taxation rates or legislation changes which could increase the company's effective tax rate. The company's operations are principally funded through group loan arrangements, and as such the company is not exposed directly to external risk factors such as liquidity and interest rate risk. During the year all employees have been transferred to a fellow group company. The Director is of an opinion that thorough risk management processes are in place to monitor and mitigate such risks.
The key performance indicator is operating profit which was a loss of £151,095 (2020 - £322,701 loss) for the year ended 31 December 2021.

DIRECTOR'S REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2021
The director presents his report and the financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2021.
The director is responsible for preparing the Strategic report, the Director's report and the
financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations.
Company law requires the director to prepare financial statements for each financial year
. Under that law the director has elected to prepare the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice), including Financial Reporting Standard 101 ‘Reduced Disclosure Framework’. Under company law the director must not approve the financial statements unless he is satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Company and of the profit or loss of the Company for that period.
In preparing these financial statements, the director is required to:
∙
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
∙
make judgments and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
∙
prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the Company will continue in business.
The director is responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the Company's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the Company and to enable him to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. He is also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the Company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
The loss for the year, after taxation, amounted to £
190,787
(2020 -
loss
£
343,789
)
.
There were no dividends paid for the year ended 31 December 2021 (2020: £nil).
The director who served during the year was:
The company is reliant on other group companies who operate in highly competitive markets. These companies have confirmed their commitment to continuing to develop their own products and make suitable acquisitions where appropriate for the foreseeable future to remain competitive.
Due to its profile, the director believes the company is shielded from the general downturn in the market.

DIRECTOR'S REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2021
The company uses various financial instruments including intercompany balances, cash and various items, such as trade debtors and trade creditors that arise from its operations. The main purpose of the financial instruments is to raise finance for the company’s operations.
The main risks arising from the company’s financial instruments are liquidity risk and credit risk. The directors review and agree policies for managing each of these risks and they are summarised below. Liquidity risk The company seeks to manage financial risk by ensuring sufficient liquidity is available to meet foreseeable needs. The company policy throughout the period has been to ensure continuity of funding using a mixture of long term and short term debt finance as well as intercompany funding. Credit risk Credit risk is the risk that a counterparty will not meet its obligations under a financial instrument, leading to a financial loss. Regular management reviews are made to assess the recoverability of amounts and provision made accordingly. The carrying amount of financial assets represents the maximum exposure. No financial assets are considered to be past due nor impaired.
The strategic report contains the business review, principal risks and uncertainties and key performance indicators.

DIRECTOR'S REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2021
The events between the reporting date and the date on which the financial statements were approved by the director of the company are set out in note 23.
The director, after making enquiries and having regard to the company’s financial position, the company’s expected trading performance and cash flows, have a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue operating for the foreseeable future. Therefore, these financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. The company meets its day-to-day working capital requirements through its cash inflows from operations and intercompany debt. In arriving at its conclusion, the director has taken account of the level of intercompany financing and cash resources which the company maintains to enable it to meet its working capital requirements. The director acknowledges that the company is in a net current liabilities position at year-end and it has obtained letters of support from its immediate parent company, Erwin Inc and other group companies, that it will meet any liability that will fall due for a period of at least 12 months from the date of approval of these financial statements. For this reason, the going concern basis continues to be adopted in preparing the financial statements. The director will continue to monitor any significant adverse changes to cash flows, any adverse indicators in respect of the carrying value of assets and additional liabilities and take appropriate measures to address these matters, if required. On 24 May 2022 the company allotted 2,778,868 of new ordinary share of £1 each for par consideration to Erwin, Inc., its immediate parent company. This resulted in an increase in the company's overall capital and reserves. There have been no other significant events affecting the company since the financial year end requiring disclosure in teh financial statements.
The auditors, Feltons Chartered Accountants and Statutory Auditor, will be proposed for reappointment in accordance with
section 485 of the Companies Act 2006.
This report was approved by the board and signed on its behalf.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF ERWIN TECHNOLOGIES UK LIMITED
We were engaged to audit the financial statements of Erwin Technologies UK Limited (the 'Company') for the year ended 31 December 2021, which comprise the Statement of comprehensive income, the Balance sheet, the Statement of changes in equity
and the related notes, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards,
including Financial Reporting Standard 101 ‘Reduced Disclosure Framework’ (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
The introduction of a new accounting system during the year resulted in detailed information from the previous accounting system not being available during our audit. Consequently we were unable to carry out detailed review work or confirm or verify by alternative means the deferred revenue creditor and the deferred incremental costs of obtaining contracts intangible asset, including amounts expensed to the statement of comprehensive income during the year. As a result of these matters, we were unable to determine whether any adjustments for these amounts were necessary.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF ERWIN TECHNOLOGIES UK LIMITED (CONTINUED)
The other information comprises the information included in the Annual Report other than the financial statements and our Auditors' report thereon. The director is responsible for the other information contained within the Annual Report. ur 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. ur responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the course of the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact.
We have nothing to report in this regard. Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. 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: • We assessed the risk of material misstatement of the financial statements, including the risk of material misstatement due to fraud and how it might occur, by holding discussions with management and those charged with governance. • We obtained an understanding of laws and regulations that could reasonably be expected to have a material effect on the financial statements through discussion with management and those charged with governance, including financial reporting and taxation legislation. We considered that extent of compliance with those laws and regulations as part of our procedures on the related financial statement items. • We inquired of management and those charged with governance as to any known instances of non- compliance or suspected non-compliance with laws and regulations. We remained alert to any indications of non-compliance throughout the audit. • We addressed the risk of fraud through management override by reviewing the appropriateness of a sample of journal entries and other adjustments; assessing whether the judgements made in making key accounting estimates are indicative of a potential bias; and evaluating the business rationale of any significant transactions that are unusual or outside the normal course of business that we come across throughout the audit. However, the primary responsibility for the prevention and detection of fraud rests with both management and those charged with governance of the company. Our examination should not be relied upon to disclose all such material misstatements or frauds, errors or instances of non-compliance as may exist. Because of the inherent limitations of an audit, there is a risk that we will not detect all irregularities, including those leading to a material misstatement in the financial statements or non-compliance with regulation. This risk increases the more that compliance with a law or regulation is removed from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, as we will be less likely to become aware of instances of non-compliance. The risk is also greater regarding irregularities occurring due to fraud rather than error, as fraud involves intentional concealment, forgery, collusion, omission or misrepresentation.

Accounting policies (continued)
Cost comprises the fair value of assets given, liabilities assumed and equity instruments issued. When a business combination agreement provides for an adjustment to the cost of the combination which is contingent on future events, the company includes the estimated amount of that adjustment in the cost of the combination at the acquisition date if the adjustment is probable and can be measured reliably. However, if the potential adjustment is not recognised at the acquisition date but subsequently becomes probable and can be measured reliably, the additional consideration shall be treated as an adjustment to the cost of the combination. Changes in the estimated value of contingent consideration arising on business combinations completed as a consequence result in a change in the carrying value of the related goodwill. Goodwill is capitalised as an intangible asset and is not amortised. Instead it is reviewed annually for impairment with any impairment in carrying value being charged to profit or loss. The Companies Act 2006 requires acquired goodwill to be reduced by provisions for depreciation calculated to write off the amount systematically over a period chosen by the directors, not exceeding its useful economic life. It has been deemed, however, the non-amortisation of goodwill is a departure, for the overriding purpose of giving a true and fair view. The effect of this departure has not been quantified because it is impracticable and, in the opinion of the directors, would be misleading.
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 profit or loss.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised, if the revision effects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods, if the revision affects both current and future periods. Critical judgments in applying the Company's accounting policies The critical judgments that the directors have made in the process of applying the Company's accounting policies that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the statutory financial statements are discussed below: (i) Assessing indicators of impairment In assessing whether there have been any indicators of impairment of assets, the directors have considered both external and internal sources of information such as market conditions, counterpart credit ratings and experience of recoverability. There have been no indicators of impairment identified during the current financial year. Key sources of estimation uncertainty The key assumptions concerning the future, and other key sources of estimation uncertainty, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are discussed below: (i) Recoverability of receivables If necessary, the company establishes a provision for receivables that are estimated not to be recoverable. When assessing the recoverability the directors consider factors such as aging of receivables, past experience of recoverability, and the credit profile of an individual or groups of customers. (ii) Intangible assets The company establishes a reliable estimate of the useful life of Intangible assets arising on business combinations. This estimate is based on a variety of factors such as the expected useful life of the cash generating units to which goodwill and other intangible assets are attributed and any legal, regulatory or contractual provisions that can limit useful life.
