Magenla Living Report and financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2024 Independent Auditor's Report to the Members of Magenta Living Due lo the inherent limitations of an audit, there is an unavoidable risk that we may not have detected some material misstatements in the financial statements, even though we have properly planned and performed our audil in accordance with auditing standards.

We are not responsible for preventing fraud or non-compliance with laws and regulations and cannot be expected to delecl all fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations.

Magenta Living is a public benefit entity in accordance with FRS102. The financial slalemenls are presented in sterling {£) and rounded lo the nearest £'OOO. Golng concern The Group's finaiicial slalenienls have been prepared on a going concern basis which assumes an ability lo continue operating lor the foreseeable future. No significant concerns have been noted in the business plan updated for fulure periods and, as al 31 March 2024 the group had available cash balances of £7.9m and a further £46m of secured but undrawn loan facililies that could be drawn al short notice, Iherefore the Group considers il appropriate to continue lo prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis. Significant judgements and estimates Preparation of the financial slalemenls requires management lo make signilicanl judgements and estimates. Significant management judgements The following are the significant management judgements made in applying Ihe accounting policies of the Group that have the most significanl effect on the financial statements.. Stock and Work in progress The Group carries stock and work in progress of properties Ihal il intends lo sell. The stock is held al cost and this is regularly compared lo the recoverable amount to ensure no impairment is required. The recoverable amounts are derived from local market data and sales experience. Page | 41

Magenta Living Report and financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2024 Notes to the Financial Statements Impalrment of Group's tangible assets Management seek lo identify indicators of impairment by considèring the economic viabilily and expected fulure financial performance of the asset. Where il is a Gomponent of an asset, WIP or property, the viability of that unil, scheme or property is also considered. The basis for Ihe recoverable amounts of the assets has been considered based on EUV-SH or deprecialed replacemenl cost. The Group has to make an assessment as lo whether an indicator of impairment exists. In making the judgement, mana9emenl considered the detailed criloria sel out in the SORP. The Group carries out an impairment r8view, assessing the Useful Economic Lives of properties and their future value to the Group. taking into account the current level of demand for properties, the lev81 of void losses, projected discounted cash flows and the ongoing investment in property maintenance and improvement. Void levèls have remained consistent with historic levèls and are in-line with the business plan. During the year, an impairment loss of £22k12023'. £nil) was recorded in the Slalement of Comprehensive Income for properties with long-term voids. Defined benefit penslon obllgatlons Management's estimate of Ihe defined benefit obligations is based on a number of critical underlying assumptions such as the standard rales of inflation, mortality, discount rate and anlicipalion of future salary increase. Variation in Ihese assumplions may sigriilicanlly impact the obligation amount and the annual defined benefit expenses las analysed in note 271. There is a nel asset al 31 March 2024 of £6.6m. The valuation of the pension fund assèts is based on actual MaTch 2024 data. Capitallsatlon of property development costs Distinguishing Ihe point al which a project is more likely than not lo continue, allowing capllalisalion of the associated development costs requires judgement. After capilalisalion management monitors the asset and considers whether chan9es indicate that impairment is required. The total amount capilalised in the year was £10.5 million. Signiflcant Estimates Inforniation about eslirmales and assumptions Ihal have the niosl significant effect on recognition and measurement of assets, liabilities, inoomè and expensas is provided below. Actual results may be significanlly differenl. Useful lives of depreclable assets.. Managemenl reviews ils estimate of the useful lives of depreciable assets al each reporting dale based on the expected ulilily of Ihe assets. Uncertainties in these estimates relale to technological obsolescence Ihat may change the ulilily of certain softwarè and IT equipment and changes lo decent homes standards which may require more Irequant replacement of key components. Accumulated depreciation al 31 March 2024 for tangible and intangible fixed assets was £114.5m12023,' £105.6m}. Revaluation of investment properties: The Group carries its investnienl property al fair value, with changes in fair value being recognised in The Statement of Comprehensive Income. The Group engaged independent valuation specialists lo determine fair value al the reporting period dale. The valuer used a valuation technique based on a discounled cash flow model. The determined lair va5ue of the investment property is mosl sensitive lo the eslimaled yield as well as the long-lerm vacancy rate. The key assumptions used lo determine the fair value ol investment properly are further explained in note 15. The carrying value of inveslmenl properiies al 31 March 2024 was £16.2m {2023.. £15.4ml.

The Scheme is a defined benefit scheme in the UK. The Scheme is subject to the funding legislation outlined in the Pensions Act 2004 which came into force on 30 December 2005. This, together with documents issued by the Pensions Regulator and Technical Actuarial Standards issued by the Financial Reporting Council, set out the framework for funding defined benefit occupational pension schemes in the UK. The last completed triennial valuation of the scheme for funding purposes was carried out as al 30 September 2020. This valuation revealed a deficit of £1,560m. A Recovery Plan has been put in place with the aim of removing this deficit by 31 March 2028. The Scheme is classified as a 'last-man standing arfangemenl,. Therefore the company is potentially liable for other participating employers, obligations if those employers are unable to meet their share of the scheme deficit following withdrawal froni the Schenie. Participating employers are legally required lo meet their share of the Scheme deficit on an annuity purchase basis on withdrawal from the Scheme. For accounting purposes, a valuation of the scheme is carried oul with an effective date of 30 September each year. The liability figures from Ihis valuation are rolled forward for accounting year-ends from the following 31 March to 28 February inclusive. The latest accounting valuation was carried out with an effeclive dale of 30 September 2023. The liability figures from this valuation were rolled forward for accounting year-ends from the following 31 March 2023 to 28 February 2024 inclusive. The liabilities are compared, at the relevant accounting date, with the company's fair share of the Scheme's total assets to calculate the company s net deficit or surplus We were notified in 2021 by the Trustee of the Scheme that it has performed a review of the changes made to the Scheme's benefits over the years and the result is that there is uncertainly surrounding some of these changes. The Trustee is seeking clarificalion from the Court on these items, and this process is ongoing with it being unlikely to be resolved before mid-2025 at the earliesl.11 is estimated that this could potentially increase the value of the full Scheme liabilities by £155m. It should be noted that this estimate has been calculated as at 30 September 2022 on the Scheme's Technical Provisions basis, Until the Court direclion is received, it is unknown whether the full {or any) increase in liabilities will apply and therefore, in line with Ihe prior year, no adjustment has been made in these financial slalemenls in respecl of this.
