other animal laxa and has frequenuy involved the use of specialist skills and equipment. This
approach is combined wth a proactive veterinary regirne designed to avoid health problerns
and enhance animal longevity. Cases wh￿e surgery has been required or extensive treatments
have been required are recorded in detsil, in particular anaesthesia 2nd drug response. This
kind of dala is of real impcrtance as there is significant species drfferences and very little data
other than mammalian data. The Deep remains committed to furthering veterinary knowledge

Independent Auditorfs Report to the Members of EMIH Limited -
Auditor responsibilities for Ihe audit of the financial slatements
Our objectives are lo obtsin reasonable assurance about whether the fIna￿ra1 statements as a whole
are free from maleyial misslalement. whether due lo frajd or error, and to issue an auditor's report that
indudes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance. is not a guarantee that an
audit conducted in acxxjrdance with ISAS (UK) will a￿dys detect a malerial misstatement when il exists.
Misstalemenls can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, irKlividually or in the
aggregale, they coul(J reasonably be expected to infflueTh￿ the ect)nomic this1c￿S of users taken on
the basis of Ihese financial statement5.
The exlenl to which our pr￿lUreS are capable of detecting irregularities, induding fraud is detailed
below..
Irregularities, including fraud, are instsnces of non<Omplvan￿ wth laws and regulations. We design
procedures in line wlh our responsibilit￿$. ouuined above. lo detect material misstalemenls in respect
of irregularities, induding fravd. The extent to our prc¢edures are capable of detecting
irregularities, induding fraud is detailed
Our approath lo identifying aTrJ assessing the risks of material misststement in respect of irregularities,
including fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations. was fcKused on specrfic laws and
regulations which we ¢￿sidered may have a (Jirect mateTia effect on the charity only and consolidated
financial statements ry the operations of the charitable Company and the group, including the
Companies Act 20￿, the Charities Act 2011, data protect￿n, anti-bribery. employment and health and
safety legislation. An uTrJerstsnding of these laws and regulalions and the extent of cOmpl￿nce was
obtained throjgh disoJssion with management and inspects'ng legal and regulatory corresponden￿.
We assessed the sus¢¥libility of the chw1ta￿e compan￿$ arKI consdidaled finanaal statemenls to
material misstatement. induding obtaining an understanding of fraud might l￿cur. by making
enquiries of management and considering the intemal contrds in ￿3¢e to mitigate risks of fraud and
non-compliance with laws and ￿UlatiOnS.
To add￿S the risk offraud through managernenl bias and override of Controls. we perfomied analytical
prccedures to Identify any unusual or unexpected relationships.. tested joumal entries to idenlfy unusual
Iransa¢lrons,' assessed whethw judgements and assumptions made in determining the accounting
estimates were indicative of potenb.al bias- and investigated the rat￿nale behind significant or unusual
Iransaclion5.
In response lo Ihe risk of ifregularitie5 and nOnWm￿laneÉ with laws and regulations. we designed
procedures which i￿￿ded. but were not limited to agreeityJ charity only and consCA￿ated financial
statement disdosures lo ￿nd￿lYing supporting dcumentation.. reading the minutes of meelings of
those charged wilh governance,. enquiring of management as lo aLtual and potential litigation and
claims., and reviewing correspwdence 7Mth HMRC, relevant rewlal<xs and the charitable C￿panY'S
legal advisors.
Due lo the inherenl limitations of an audit. there is a risk that we will not delect all irregularilies, including
those leading lo a material misstalernenl in the financial statements or non-cKJmpliance with regulation.
This risk increases the rrwe that cornpliance wlh a law or regulation is removed from the events and
transactKsns reflecled in the financial slatemenls. as we will be less likdy to becorne aware of instances
of non-compliance. Auditing standards also limit the audit prccedure5 required lo identify non-
compliance with laws and regulations to enquiry of the directc￿ and olher management and the
in5pe¢tion of regulatory aThJ legal Qyresr*Mde￿. rf any.
Page 22

EMIH Limited
Independent Auditorfs Report to the Members of EMIH Limited
The risk is also greater regarding irregularities cc£urring due to fraud rather than error, as fraud
involves intentional coneealment. forgw. collugon. omission. or rnisrepresentation.
A further description of our responsiblif(￿S for the audit of the financial slalements is located on the
Financial Reporting Council's w*bsite at V•W4V.frc.oTg.uklauditorsresponsibililies. This description

1 Charity $ts¢us
The charity is limited by guarantee. inCorp￿ated in Eroland, and consequenuy does not have share
capitsl. Each of the Iruslees is liaNe to contribute an amount not exceeding £1 t(hvards the assets
the charity in the evelll of liquwjatton.
2 Accounting pollcles
Summary of significant accounling policies and key aGGounting estimates
The principal aeeounting policies in the preparation of these financial statements are set out
below. These have been cowsienlly applied to all the years presented. unless olhemise
staled.
Statement of cornpliance
The financial statements have been prepared in ac£ordan￿ *ilh A￿TrtIng an¢J Reporting by
Charities.. Statement of ReComrnend￿ Practice (applicable to charities preparing their accounts in
accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in UK and Republic of Ireland {FRS
1021) li5sued in October 2019) - (Charities SORP {FRS 1021}. the Financial Reporting Standard
applicable in the UK and Reput￿1¢ of IrelaTrJ (FRS 102) and the Companies Act 20Cffj.
Basis of preparation
EMIH Limited meets the definition of a publ￿ benefrt ￿tity urKler FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are
initially recognised al historx?l (y)st ly transaction value unless stated in rdevant
accounting policy notes.
Prior ￿riod restatement
The prior Peri¢￿ results have been re5ts1ed to c¢xrgX a misstatement in the revaluation of fixed assets.
The revalualth)n gain has been reduced by £177.945 to reflect the additions to The Deep Visitor
Attra(aion in the prior pericmj that V4Ere trM)Ih induded in the overall revaluation of that asset and
accounted for separately as additions during the period.
The impact of this restatement on the PriLY period ￿Ults is lo reduce the value of The Deep Visitor
Attraction wlhin Tangible Fixed Assets the gain on revaluation of fixed assets disclosed in the
Consolidated Statement of Financial Activities by £177,945. This also results in a reduction lo the Net
Movement in Funds in the Consdidated Stalerrenl of Financial Adivities and the balance of
Unrestricted Funds in the Cons¢Yidated Balance Sheet by the same amcwnl.
Basis of consolldallon
The consolidated financial sL*ements o)nsolKlate financial statemerkls of the charity and lis
subsidiary undertakings drawn up to 31 January %)23.
No statement of finanryal actNities is presented for the charty as pemi*led by section 408 of the
Companies Act 2tyJ6. The charty made a loss after tax for thefinanaal year of £1.543,257 {2022- Ioss
of £2,533,832).

EMIH Limited
Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 January 2023
Going concern
It is important that suffiaent Visiiors D)ntinue to be attracted to The Deep so that it can cover its
operational costs and generate suffioenl resources to mainlain the quality of ils faalilie5 (and provide
for their ongoing improvemenl). byl)ilst also enabling the charity to continue to suppwjrt conservation and
marine research projects.
Whi15t visitor numbers can be uncertain. IPP directors fed that th￿r forecasts over Ihe peric*l lo
31 January 2025 indude a ￿nServative estimate in rdalion to visitor numbers and that the overall
forecasts are reliable in predicling future group revenue and 12sh flo￿. The directors believe that the
grcrtjp ha5 adequate resources to continue in operatK)nal existence for a perKKI of 12 months from the
date of approval of these finanaal statements and therefore have prepared the financial slalemenls on
a EM)ing con(wn basis.
Judgements
The preparation of the financial statements requires managenwt to make judgements, estimates and
assumptions that affect the amounts reported for assets and liabilities as at the balance sheet date and
the amounts reported for revenues and expenses during the year. However, the nature of estimation
means that actual outcomes could drffer from It¥)se estimates. The judgements {apart from those
involving estimalesl that have had the mosl signrficanl effect on amounts recognised in the financial
slalemenls are the actuarial assumplions supporting thevalualion of the group's defined benefit pension
scheme.
Income and endowments
All income is recognised once the charity has entiuement to the inu)me. it is probable thal the income
will be received and the am(yJnt of the in(x)me r&xvable can be Measur￿ reliably.
Donations and legacies
Donations are recognised when the charity has been r￿lIf￿￿ in vffiting of both the arrK)unl an
selllement date. In the event that a donalion is subject lo condilions Ihat require a level of performance
by the charity before the charity is entitled to the funds, Ihe income is deferred and not rerA)gnised until
either those conditions are lully met. or Ihe fulfilment of those condiiions is wh¢Jly wlhin the control of
the charily aThJ il is probable that these condilions V•ill be fuffilled in the retxxting period.
Grants recelvable
Grants are recognised when the group has an ent￿ement to the funds and any conditions linked to the
grants have been met. Where performance oJndilhJiis are attached lo the grant and are yet lo be mel,
the income is recognis&J as a liability and included on the balance sheet as deferred income to be
released.
Investment income
Interest is included when receivable by the charity.

Exponditure
Al expenditure is recognis&J once thwe is a legal or constructive obligation to that expendf(ure. it is
probable settlement is required and the amount ¢An be measured reliably. All costs are allocated to the
applicable expenditure heading thal aggregate similar costs to that cat¥•ry. Where costs cannot be
directly allribuled lo particular headings they have been allocated on a basis consistent with the use of
resources, with cenlral stsff costs allccaled on the basis of tirne spent. and dep￿CiatIon charges
allocated on the p￿IK)n of the asset's use. Other supp(Yt costs are allocAted based on the spread of

Support costs include tsntral functions and have been allocated lo aclivity cost cale¢)yies on a basis

Taxation
The charity is considered to pass the tests set out in Paragraph 1 Sthedule 6 of the Finance Act 2010
and therefore rt meets the definil#)n of a charitable company for UK COr￿rath?ft lax purposes.
Acc<Kdingly, the charity is wtenbally exemplfrom taxation in resped of or capitsl gains received
within categories covered by Chapter 3 Part 11 of the Corpcffation Tax Ad 2010 or Section 256 of the
Taxation of Chargeable Gains Acl 1992. to the extent that suth illixjme or gains are 8ppl*d exdusively

the directors consider il probable that they wll be recovered against the reversal of defwred tax liabilities
or other future taxable profrts.

Tangible fixed assets
Al fixed assets are initially recorded at Cost. The chaTiWs buildirKJs are revalued at the balance sheet
dale every three years by an independent Ihir(i party surveyor in acs)rdance with the provisions of FRS
102. These assets are being depreoaled ovw thar r￿￿Ining useful lrfe of 10 years from the dale
revaluation.
Equipment is depreciated over 1-5 years.
The carrying values of tangible fixed assets are revithyed for impaimient when events or changes in
ircurnslances indicate the tsrrying value may not be recoverable.
Stock
StoGks are slated al the of cost aThJ net reali5able value. Cost indudes all costs incurred in
bringing each prcéuct lo its present IrKalion and condrtK)n. Net realisable value is based on estimaled
selling price less any further costs expe(led lo be incurred to completion and disposal.
Trnde debtors
Trade debtors are re(rynised initially at the IransactK)n pri￿. They are subsequently measured at
amortised cx)sl using the effective interest method, less provisiort f(￿ impairment. A provision for the
impairment of tfade debtors is estsblished bvhen there is objecaive evidenrE that the charity will not be
