REPORT OF THE PRESIDENT AND CHIEF EXECUTIVE FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2022

President’s and Chief Executive’s Report

The business plan for the year to 30 June 2022 was developed to achieve a year of consolidation following the reset required in the previous financial year as a result of the impact of the pandemic.

Listening to our members, it was clear the focus for the year should be one of maintaining and, where possible, increasing the volume of activities provided by the association to support the membership. At the same time, it was important to ensure the organisation was financially sustainable by making a small surplus to bring reserves further closer to the level they were pre-pandemic.

We are delighted to be able to say that both objectives were achieved. The volume of activity and support to members was greater than ever. Financially, the statutory accounts show a surplus of £290k for the year to 30 June 2022, bringing reserves up to a level of £4,244k.

We also reached a major milestone for the association in the year by purchasing a property in Bristol – HFMA House, 4 Broad Plain. It has been a long-standing objective to be able to move the head office in Bristol from rented accommodation into owned premises. In early 2022, this was achieved following the purchase and then sympathetic refurbishment of the grade 2 listed Georgian premises.

Another initiative this year was the offering of free HFMA memberships for apprentices and those working in agenda for change bands 2-6. It has been well received.

exciting plans to develop support for their members, which we are delighted to assist with.

With support from members, the association was also able to significantly increase the public benefit of its activities as evidenced by the levels of social media traffic and downloads of material over the last year. The overhaul and online relaunch of the HFMA introductory guide to NHS finance – which is available free of charge on the HFMA website – is one example of the public benefit provided during the year.

Our theme for the year fittingly has been Reimagining the future . This has been received well by our members an d played well into HFMA’s next steps which were developed during the year as we worked on developing our new strategy for the three years to 30 June 2025 – Picking up the pace . This was launched in September.

The strategy re-emphasised the values of the association, which can be summarised as high-quality, fair, memberfocused and accessible. It also set out the five strategic lenses through which its services will be developed. In pursuing our objectives, the association will ensure it: considers equality, diversity and inclusion ; aligns its structures and services to reflect the integration agenda; member services are personalised through the use of digitalisation; supports and provides services that complement the One NHS Finance initiative; and considers environmental sustainability with all its activities.

The strategy also sets out the four overarching objectives that the association will be working to deliver over the three years to 30 June 2025. They are to:

When we develop our business plan, we set key performance indicators in addition to finances, which we measure ourselves against each year. These show that, as at 30 June 2022, we had reached a record 20,653 members and supported them and others with for example: 335,131 hours of continuing professional development and the production of 53 policy briefings and publications. We also had an average of just over 100 students studying for our qualifications over the year.

We ask attendees and users of all our activities to give feedback. Over the last year we achieved an amazing 96% good or excellent on events and 94% from everyone undertaking our bitesize e-learning. We are very proud of this feedback.

During the year to 30 June 2022, we also continued to host, work alongside and support One NHS Finance with the delivery of its programme of work in England. This encompasses Future-Focused Finance, the National Finance Academy and the Finance Innovation Forum. We are proud to be a part of this exciting and developing set of programmes.

We also look to support other associations working alongside colleagues in the NHS. During the year we were proud and happy to start hosting the Healthcare Project and Change Management Association (HPCA). They have

We would like to take this opportunity to thank our friends on the corporate partner programme, who provide us with valuable resources without which we would not be able to run our central infrastructure. They, along with all our commercial supporters, continue to be very supportive in these challenging times, for which we are very grateful.

At HFMA we will continue to work hard to support our members as the NHS settles into the integrated structures. These have been in place for some time in the devolved nations, but are new to England. And there is still much to do to deliver real integrated care that delivers the best possible care for patients. We will also continue to work hard to help ensure that we keep the best of what we’ve learnt over the last two years.

Thank you for reading this annual review. As always, please do not hesitate to contact us with any comments or thoughts and our best wishes to you all.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2022

Trustees’ Report

OBJECTS AND AIMS

THE OBJECTS AND AIMS OF HFMA

HFMA is a charity which works with the healthcare sector to advance effective financial management. Its objects and aims are to:

STRATEGIC REPORT

ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE IN THE YEAR

The activities and achievements in the year against each of our strategic objectives as laid out in the strategy are summarised below:

To provide excellent members networks and services : The number of individual members of HFMA at the end of the year totalled 20,653 (2020/21: 17,396).

We were very pleased that our investments over the years in IT and digital mechanisms, such as Microsoft Teams, e- learning, webinars, social media and the website have allowed us to continue delivering member benefits and indeed a wider public benefit to all in the NHS over the last year.

Our website had 193,961 visits over the year, we had 4,539 twitter followers and 8,169 LinkedIn members.

Our organisation facing offerings continue to be very popular and the first year of them relaunched into the new “Hub network” has proved a great success. Virtually every NHS organisation is now a Hub member.

We also ensure all our membership offerings were focussed to support the new place-based structures in place for our members organisations.

To become the voice of healthcare finance through the development of leading edge policy and technical work : There have been considerable developments in policy and technical work during the year and we have built on the many new activities that were initiated last year when the impact of Covid-19 was first felt.

Working with key stakeholders and building constructive and productive relationships remains important and a key component of our success.

To this end we continue to meet regularly with the policy and decision makers in the NHS in Wales, Northern Ireland and Scotland, as well as England.

In England, we continued to work with key players in the healthcare sector such as the Department of Health and Social Care and NHS England and NHS Improvement. We are delighted to continue to be the prime partner for FFF; hosting, providing the administration and delivering a big part of OneNHSFinance’s (ONF) programme.

We also continue to work closely with the main accountancy bodies, NHS Confederation and the Kings Fund as well as a number of key private sector organisations in moving the finance agenda in health forward.

We continued developing our library of books, reports and briefings, producing 53 briefings and publications in the year.

To create relevant and affordable development and qualification opportunities : The year saw a relaunch of HFMA’s Qualifications; the HFMA Diploma (DHBF) and Higher Diploma in Healthcare and Business Finance (HDHBF) incorporating the Diploma in Advanced Practice Management (DAPCM).

During the year to 30 June 2022 we had an average of 101 students studying for the DHBF, HDHBF and DAPCM qualification.

The Association continues to be the place most NHS finance staff go to satisfy their CPD requirements. Total CPD hours delivered in the year reached 335,131. This continues one of the key statistics that demonstrates the continuing interest our membership and the wider finance community in health has for HFMA’s training; be it events, webinars, qualifications or e-learning. Just as importantly HFMA targets a 90% excellent/good score from user feedback. Over the year to 30 June 2022 the average over all events was 96% a statistic we are very proud of.

Over the year we started to run face to face events again but also continued to use the virtual platforms we put in place during the pandemic. We have been constantly talking to our members to get the mix right. The most events popular include our National Annual conference in December and our Pre-Accounts Planning event in February, which was well-attended

Our e-learning “bitesize” modules have proved very sought after by the NHS finance function over the year last year. Part of the offering now includes some modules that have been uploaded onto the NHS ESR system allowing nearly all employees in the NHS to access them free of charge. At the time of writing some 45,000 downloads had taken place.

Once again, we are very proud to report that the target of achieving over 90% of users scoring each module excellent or good was achieved at 94%.

HFMA ANNUAL REPORT 2021 – 2022 4 Company Number: 5787972

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2022

The bitesize e-learning modules continue to be improved and updated on an annual basis, drawing on technical expertise from our content team, our members and the graphical skills of instructional designers. As a result of this, the introductory suite of modules continues to train and inspire NHS staff.

During the year we worked closely with the NHS finance function and ONF in setting up the Regional Finance Academies. These incorporate all training and development activities in each region. These incorporate the Skills Development Networks (SDN’s) and Finance and Management Training Schemes (FMTS). The FMTS scheme now also incorporate apprenticeship schemes. HFMA continues to run many of these networks and schemes across the country

Managing ourselves effectively as a business : This is the fourth and final objective and covers the enabling functions of the business.

The financial element of this objective is covered separately below.

The most exciting development of the year has been moving into the new owned premises in Bristol, HFMA House, 4 Broad Plain. The grade 2 listed Georgian building was purchased in April 2021 and was then refurbished. We moved in during early 2022. It has been a long-standing objective for HFMA to own the premises that house the head office function. This has now been achieved.

The move into HFMA House also allowed the base IT systems to be overhauled and we are now in a position where almost all systems are cloud based and each member of staff is fully mobile and has an up-to-date laptop.

The Human Resources function has been very busy over the year. Moving into HFMA House has coincided with new working practices being put into place so that all staff are now able to work from home or from the office. This has been a great step forward and has allowed the positives from the pandemic being fully integrated into the teams way of working.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

Despite coping with the continuing challenges that the move ouf of the pandemic, Brexit and the war in the Ukraine has brought to HFMA the result for the year is a surplus of £290k (2020/21 a surplus of £348k, 2019/20 a deficit of £779k).

This means reserves are now at £4,244k which means we are slowly getting back to the level reserves were prepandemic.

The total income of the Charity for 2021/22 was £7,170k (£5,453k in 2020/21).

The increase in income reflects in the main the move back to more face-to-face events and notably the National Annual Conference held in December 2021. It does also show the increase in activity year-on-year across HFMA other than the conference centre, 110 Rochester Row, which is still running below pre-pandemic levels.

Conferences and training events income in 2021/22 totalled £1,961k (£1,118k in 2020/21). Which reflects the National Annual Conference running as a face-to-face event whereas it was a virtual event the previous year.

E-learning (Bitesize) income totalled £826k in 2021/22, (£725k in 2020/21) the increase reflecting an increasing interest in the products in a world where face to face training is still considered less attractive.

Qualifications income totalled £267k in 2021/22 (£332k in 2020/21) a slight decrease year-on-year reflecting less development income rather than a reduction in students.

The income from the trading subsidiary HFMA Ltd is considerably above the previous year at £3,878k for 2021/22 (£2,922k in 2020/21). This is as a result of more activities taking place than in the previous year and sponsorship income starting to get back to pre-pandemic levels.

The breakdown of expenditure is shown below:

HFMA ANNUAL REPORT 2021 – 2022 5 Company Number: 5787972

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2022

By far the greatest activity in terms of income, other than the trading activities in the subsidiary companies noted above, is conferences and events. Expenditure totalled £2,216k in 2021/22 (£1,207k in 2020/21). The increase reflects the fact that costs of running face to face events are considerably higher than the costs of running virtual events. It is also the case that conferences and events run at a planned loss.

Members subscriptions totalled £174k in 2021/22 (£181k in 2020/21). The costs of member services a little above the previous year at £955k in 2021/22 (£947k in 2020/21). It is congruent with the objects and aims of the charity and the Charity Commission’s guidance on Public Benefit, that subscriptions paid by members cover only a small percentage of the costs of providing member services with the surpluses achieved in the trading operations of HFMA subsidising the balance of the costs. The trading surpluses are also used to subsidise conferences and events which also run at a planned loss as noted above.

The costs of e-learning, Bitesize, packages are roughly the same year-on-year at £480k in 2021/22 (£479k in 2020/21). With income up the result is an increased contribution at £346k in 20221/22 (£247k in 2020/21).

It should be noted that the surplus in the trading subsidiary HFMA Ltd of £1,016k (£460k in 2019/20). This is an excellent result and is as a result of good levels of commercial activity despite a challenging year for the conference centre, 110 Rochester Row. This surplus is passed by gift aid to HFMA and was used by the charity to subsidise the cost of activities and services provided to the members of HFMA as noted above

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with relevant law and current accounting conventions and in particular the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) – (Charities SORP (FRS 102)).

PUBLIC BENEFIT

To meet the objective of providing Public Benefit, HFMA offers training courses through branch and national events in the form of conferences and seminars, webinars, training publications and materials and online through our e- learning service.

Following the impact of Covid-19 a special portal was set up on the HFMA website into which materials were placed to support all those in healthcare working to manage the impact of the pandemic on their job. This portal was free access to all.

All these activities contribute to the Public Benefit provided by HFMA in assisting healthcare managers in providing a high quality and efficient service to the public.

The 100% owned trading subsidiary HFMA Ltd operates commercial activities to support the work of HFMA. The

results are shown in Note 16 to the Accounts.

HFMA Commercial Services Limited is also 100% owned but has not traded in the year.

The activities and achievements of the charity in the year to 30 June 2022 are detailed in the President and Chief Executive’s report with commentary as to how the objectives set were met. These achievements demonstrate how successful HFMA has been in fulfilling its objectives and providing a Public Benefit.

FUTURE PLANS

As noted in the President and Chief Executive’s report the new strategy for the three years to 30 June 2025 was launched in September 2022.

The business plan for the first year of this strategy for the year to 30 June 2023 has been produced.

The plans for the year ahead for each main objective in the strategy and business plan for the year are detailed below:

HFMA ANNUAL REPORT 2021 – 2022 6 Company Number: 5787972

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2022

four events of which at least one will be fee free. We will also be looking to further develop our faculty programme. The HFMA Diploma and Higher Diploma has been relaunched and so this a year of focus for the qualifications. We will further develop our e-learning Bitesize products and programmes. Our usual programme of updating existing modules will also take place to ensure that the training we deliver is up to date and of the highest quality. We will also be looking to keep the programme of refreshing and improving the website and mobile app in the year ahead.

The plans noted above, and the activities undertaken in the year show how the objects and aims of the charity continue to be satisfied. These are a clear demonstration of how HFMA provides a Public Benefit by providing services and support to a membership of people working in finance and related areas in healthcare management.

Most training activities are open to non-members as well as members, often free of charge, ensuring that all members within a health system can benefit from HFMA’s expertise. A bursary fund also exists to support members or potential members who are unable to access the services provided by HFMA due to financial constraints.

The Trustees consider they have complied with their duties with regard to the Charity Commission’s Public Benefit guidance.

RESERVES AND GOING CONCERN

HFMA’s total reserves which have been built up slowly over many years were severely reduced in the year to 30 June 2020 by £779k as a direct result of lost revenue due to the impact of Covid-19. The results for the year to 30 June 2021 of £348k and for the year to 30 June 2022 has gone some way to rebuilding the Reserves of the Charity which now stand at £4,244k (209/20 £3,954k).

All reserves are held in funds whose use is at the discretion of the Trustees as long as they are used as laid out in the objects and aims of the charity. The reserves policy below is set by the Trustees.

None of the funds are in deficit. The balances on these funds are shown on the balance sheet and in note 17.

The financial strategy over the coming years will be to build this fund back up to the levels set before the impact of Covid-19. This will be achieved through re-building revenues where and keeping a close control over the cost base.

The Trustees consider it is appropriate to treat the Charity as a going concern.

This is due to the Trustees and Senior Management team having a clear understanding of the risks facing the organisation and robust cash management plans.

The largest uncertainty facing the Charity is the ability to run events at the Conference Centre in London, 110 Rochester Row. However, stress testing the budget and resulting cash flow forecasts for this risk, alongside considering other downside risks, shows that HFMA has cash reserves available for the period to 30 June 2024.

To assist with cash requirements during the pandemic a Coronavirus Business Interruption Loan of £850k was received in February 2021. This was repaid in full February 2022.

It is also worth noting that if needed HFMA has fixed assets investments which could be sold if further cash was required. The value of these investments at 30 June 2022 was £1,906k.

The investment approach is discussed and agreed annually and confirmed at Board meetings. It was agreed that a considerable amount of funds should be held in easily accessible accounts (that attracted lower interest than could be achieved if the funds were tied up in fixed term accounts) to allow the Trustees to move quickly if there was an opportunity to invest in assets that supported HFMA’s strategic objectives to support the members and maintain the long-term future of the Charity.

TRUSTEES’ RESPONSIBILITIES IN RELATION TO THE

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The Association’s policy is to secure its viability beyond the immediate future. This requires some income to be put aside, when this can be afforded, as a reserve against future uncertainties and opportunities:

All funds are unrestricted income funds. These are split into the following: General fund, Branch fund and Bursary fund.

The Trustees (who are also directors of Healthcare Financial Management Association for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the Trustees’ Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice.

Company law requires the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year that give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and the Group and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the Charitable Group for that period. In preparing those financial statements, the Trustees are required to:

HFMA ANNUAL REPORT 2021 – 2022 7 Company Number: 5787972

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2022

accessible at short notice. Every effort will be made to maximise interest whilst following these criteria.

The Trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable company and group and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006 and Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charitable company and the group and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. In so far as the Trustees are aware:

Any major capital investment over £75k requires Trustee approval and should be supported by a business case and with appropriate professional advice.

For all investments made, targets will be set for these assets to at least equal the performance of average indices (for instance in the increase/decrease in value of commercial properties or financial instruments traded).

The Trustees will make no direct investment in companies whose products or services are accepted as being prejudicial to good health. In considering collective investments the Trustees will consider the nature and significance of the health risks associated with the products or services of any such company whose shares form a component of the collective investment.

CONSTITUTION AND GOVERNANCE

The Trustees are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the corporate and financial information included on the charitable company's website. Legislation in the United Kingdom governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions.

The Trustees confirm that they have complied with the duties of the Charities Act 2011 to have due regard to the Charity Commission’s general guidance on Public Benefit.

The Trustees have referred to the guidance in the Charity Commission’s general guidance on Public Benefit when reviewing the charity’s aims and objectives and in planning the charity’s future activities. In particular, the Trustees have considered how planned activities will contribute to the aims and objectives they have set.

INVESTMENT POLICY

The Investment Policy is to match the risks and accessibility of the assets invested in against the reason behind the investments being made in that:

HFMA was incorporated as a company limited by guarantee registered in England and Wales in July 2006; a Memorandum and Articles of Association govern it.

The registered name and registered office of the Charity and names of the Trustee, who are directors for the purposes of company law, are shown on page 2 of this report. HFMA wholly owns two trading subsidiaries, HFMA Ltd, and HFMA Commercial Services Limited. These are private limited companies and they gift aid any profits to the Association. The Board of Trustees are the legal trustees and have control of the assets of the Charity.

During 2020/21, the Board of Trustees comprised the National President, two Vice-Presidents, Past Chair and Chair of the Audit and Finance Committee, who are nominated by the membership as a whole, and a representative from each of the three devolved nations who are elected by their branches and seven Trustees who are appointed by Board of Trustees. All the Trustees are directors of HFMA.

During the year the Board usually meets formally four times. When appropriate or necessary additional Board meetings are called. These meetings along with briefing papers for the Board ensured the Trustees were fully briefed on the risks and actions being taken and fully involved in decision making over this period.

Over the year, in addition to regular Board meetings, the Audit and Finance Committee and the Appointments and Remuneration Committee met four times. These two committees have delegated powers and responsibilities that are documented and approved by the Board.

HFMA ANNUAL REPORT 2021 – 2022 8 Company Number: 5787972

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2022

The Appointments and Remuneration Committee also considers and recommends to the board the remuneration of the CEO, Deputy CEO & Director of Finance and Director of Policy & Research. This involves a review of the marketplace to allow benchmarking to take place and consideration of the roles and responsibilities of each post.

The day to day running of HFMA is delegated by the Board to the CEO and Senior Management Team. Senior Management Team meetings take place monthly.

Each week there is a whole-organisation meeting where the CEO leads a briefing with contributions from across the organisation.

The 13 branches have their own volunteer branch executives usually comprising a Branch Chair, a Branch Treasurer and a Branch Secretary.

The year to 30 June 2020 was the last year of the 2017-20 strategy. Due to the impact of Covid-19 it was determined that the years to 30 June 2021 and 30 June 2022 would be years where the focus would be on survival and reset. The next three-year strategy has been developed and was launched in September 2022 and covers the three years from 1 July 2022 to 30 June 2026.

is maintained and is considered regularly throughout the year by management, by the Audit and Finance Committee at each of its four meetings during the year and is annually presented and reviewed by the Board of Trustees.

Monthly management accounts and related information is produced and along with a programme of scrutiny by internal auditors, this provides the information the executives and trustees require to run the charity and gives the assurance required for the Board to fulfil its role in terms of risk and assurance management.

The Group’s key business risks are around its income due to the fact that, unlike most membership organisations, a very small amount of income is derived from membership subscriptions. Therefore, HFMA relies on other sources of income to fund its membership activities. In recent years these sources of non-membership income have diversified significantly, thus spreading the operational risk.

In the last quarter of the year to 30 June 2020 HFMA pivoted the operations of the organisation to manage the impact of Covid-19. The management of this risk led to all HFMA’s staff moving to working from home, all face to face events were cancelled or moved to being run as virtual events and the conference centre 110 Rochester Row was closed.

Each strategy is communicated to every member of HFMA and further details can be found on HFMA’s website www.hfma.org.uk. As usual the annual business plan for the year ahead was also agreed as were individual business plans for each branch.

There is a Scheme of Delegation which states the level of authority required for decision making and expenditure. This Each line of income/project is monitored on a regular basis and each Manager has specific responsibility not only for the short-term management of the risk profile but also for the long-term prognosis of these individual income lines. Physical risk is covered by specific systems for example in IT recovery and backup, emergency procedures and the provision of comprehensive insurance for assets and personnel.

is considered by the Trustees each year and amended to reflect changes required to allow the smooth running of HFMA.

HFMA is committed to recruiting Trustees with appropriate skills and talents. Vacancies for Trustee and other committee posts are advertised widely to the membership.

The Appointments and Remuneration Committee consider the applications and they select Trustees on the basis of established criteria. New Trustees receive full induction from the Chief Executive and regularly attend HFMA run CPD (Continuing Professional Development) sessions throughout the year.

RISK MANAGEMENT

The Business Continuity planning ensured that the impact of Covid-19 was managed and HFMA was able to start the year from 1 July 2020 having fully pivoted the business model. This included mitigations around cost being put in place to bring the expenditure of the Charity down to match a prudent estimate of income going forward from 1 July 2020.

Although these mitigations give the Board comfort that the risk around the impact of Covid-19 is being managed appropriately, the risk of further negative impacts on income still exists notably at 110 Rochester Row and so this is still seen as the major risk that the Charity needs to manage at the time of writing this report.

The Business Continuity Plan is kept up to date and is designed to ensure under any circumstance HFMA can maintain its operations.

SERVICES PROVIDED BY OTHER BODIES

Moorepay Limited, a division of Northgate Information Solutions, provided a payroll service.

RSM UK Audit LLP and Audit South West NHS Audit Consortium provided audit services.

BRANCHES

The 13 regional branches form an integral part of the Association. The branches have the powers to run training and education events for the benefit of branch members. Branch funds are used to underwrite training and education opportunities and support local research initiatives.

The Association regards the management of risk as a key issue within its overall operating framework. A risk register

HFMA ANNUAL REPORT 2021 – 2022 13 Company Number: 5787972

Notes forming part of the Financial Statements (continued) For the year ended 30 June 2022

1. Accounting Policies

a) GENERAL INFORMATION

HFMA is a limited company and charity incorporated in England and Wales. It is also a Charity in Scotland. The address of HFMA’s registered office is 110 Rochester Row, Victoria, London, SW1P 1JP. The principal places of business of HFMA are 110 Rochester Row, Victoria, London, SW1P 1JP and HFMA House, 4 Broad Plain, Bristol, BS2 0JB.

The HFMA Group consists of HFMA and all of its subsidiaries. The nature of HFMA Group’s activities are detailed in the Trustees report on pages 4 to 10 of these accounts.

b) BASIS OF PREPARATION

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019) – (Charities SORP (FRS 102)). The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Companies Act 2006.

HFMA meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy note.

c) GOING CONCERN

The accounts have been produced on the basis that the charity is a going concern. This is as a result of the trustees having a clear understanding of the risks facing the organisation and the existence of robust cash management plans. The Charity also has budgets and resulting cash flows which have been stress tested for the year ahead which support this view.

The largest uncertainty facing the Charity is the ability to run events at the Conference Centre in London, 110 Rochester Row. However, stress testing the budget and resulting cash flow forecasts for this risk, alongside considering other downside risks, shows that HFMA has cash reserves available at least through to 30 June 2024.

After taking into account the stress testing, there is still headroom over the period to 30 June 2023. If an unforeseen risk occurs or the risks considered in the stress testing are of a larger quantum than considered, HFMA has the ability to sell some or all of its fixed assets investments if further cash was required. The value of these investments at 30 June 2022 was £1,906k. It is worth noting that these investments if realised and turned into cash would turn the net current liabilities position of the Charity into a net current assets position at 30 June 2022. It is also worth noting that included in current liabilities in the balance sheet is £3,393k of deferred income, which if added back would also turn the net current liabilities position into a net current assets position.

d) REDUCED DISCLOSURES

In accordance with FRS 102, the Company has taken advantage of the exemptions from the following disclosure requirements;

e) FUNCTIONAL AND PRESENTATIONAL CURRENCY

The consolidated financial statements are presented in sterling which is also the functional currency of the Company.

f) FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

HFMA has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 ‘Basic Financial Instruments’ and Section 12 ‘Other Financial Instruments Issues’ of FRS 102, in full, to all of its financial instruments. Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when the Group becomes a party to contractual provisions of the instrument and are offset only when the Group currently has a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and intends to either settle on a net basis, or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

Notes forming part of the Financial Statements (continued) For the year ended 30 June 2022

1. Accounting Policies (continued)

f) FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (continued)

Financial assets

Trade, group and other debtors (including accrued income) which are receivable within one year and which do not constitute a financing transaction are initially measured at amortised cost, being the transaction price less any amounts settled and any impairment losses.

Where the arrangement with a debtor constitutes a financing transaction, the debtor is initially measured at the present value of future payments discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar debt instrument and subsequently measured at amortised cost.

A provision for impairment of trade debtors is established when there is objective evidence that the amounts due will not be collected according to the original terms of the contract. Impairment losses are recognised in profit or loss for the excess of the carrying value of the trade debtor over the present value of the future cash flows discounted using the original effective interest rate. Subsequent reversals of an impairment loss that objectively relate to an event occurring after the impairment loss was recognised, are immediately recognised in the statement of financial activities.

Financial liabilities

Financial instruments are classified as liabilities and equity instruments according to the substance of the contractual arrangements entered into. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the Company after deducting all of its liabilities. Where the arrangement with a creditor constitutes a financing transaction, the creditor is initially measured at the present value of future payments discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar instrument and subsequently measured at amortised cost.

Trade, group and other creditors (including accruals) payable within one year that do not constitute a financing transaction are initially measured at the transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost, being transaction price less any amounts settled.

g) GROUP FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

These financial statements consolidate the results of the Healthcare Financial Management Association, including its branches (HFMA) and its wholly owned subsidiaries HFMA Ltd and HFMA Commercial Services Limited (HCS Ltd). Trading income and expenditure is identified separately in the Statement of Financial Activities and assets and liabilities are consolidated on a line-by-line basis.

h) INCOME

Income is recognised when you meet the criteria of entitlement, measurement and probability. Income invoiced for post year end activity is accounted for as deferred income and released to incoming resources in the relevant period subsequent to the year end. The following specific policies apply to categories of income:

i) VOLUNTEERS

The value of services provided by volunteers is not incorporated into these financial statements. There are many contributions made by volunteers including event speakers, committee members, Branch committee members and Trustees.

j) EXPENDITURE

Expenditure recognised when a liability is incurred and allocated to the appropriate heading in the accounts.

Notes forming part of the Financial Statements (continued) For the year ended 30 June 2022

1. Accounting Policies (continued)

j) EXPENDITURE (continued)

k) LEASED BUILDINGS AND EQUIPMENT

The Association rents an office and a Conference Centre on a long lease. Long lease property is included in fixed assets and written off on a straight-line basis over 50 years from the point of first use. In the case of one long lease in London the fixed asset is written off on a straight-line basis over 50 years down to a residual value that is based on cost and is deemed appropriate after considering the market value of the long lease.

The costs of lease improvements and benefit of introductory rent and service charge free periods are allocated on a straightline basis over the period to the commencement of full rent in accordance with FRS 102.

All existing leases for cars and office equipment are treated as operating leases. The title to the cars and equipment remains with the lessor who retains the risk and rewards of ownership and the lease terms are shorter than the economic life. Rental charges are charged on a straight line basis over the term of the lease.

l) TANGIBLE FIXED ASSETS

Lease improvements and equipment acquired with a value in excess of £5,000 are capitalised at cost. Depreciation is provided when it comes into use to recognise the cost of the asset, its residual value and its estimated useful life and is included in support costs.

Depreciation on these assets is calculated as follows:

m) INTANGIBLE FIXED ASSETS

Software development costs and intellectual property are included in Intangible Fixed Assets at cost and are written off on a straight-line basis over the life of the asset which can vary from between 5 and 10 years.

n) INVESTMENTS

Current asset investments are included at market value. Gains and losses on disposal and revaluation are charged or credited to the Statement of Financial Activities.

o) STOCK

Stock is carried at the lower of cost or net realisable value. Stock comprises publications and training packages held for resale.

Notes forming part of the Financial Statements (continued) For the year ended 30 June 2022

1. Accounting Policies (continued)

p) FUNDS STRUCTURE

All funds are unrestricted income funds. These are split into undesignated (the General and Branches funds) and designated funds (the Bursary and Deep Reserve funds). The General and Branches funds should be built up to at least six months’ worth of total annual costs of HFMA to cover short-term falling off in demand for the services offered. The Bursary fund is to support those with low incomes accessing the services of HFMA or assisting members in activities that benefit healthcare in the UK that they would not be able to perform without support.

q) PENSIONS

All staff are employed solely by the Association. Two Group Personal Pension Schemes are provided for staff joining the Association:

Some members of staff are members of the NHS Pension Scheme as designated under a direction agreement granted by the Secretary of State. The scheme is a multi-employer defined benefit scheme where the share of the assets and liabilities applicable to each employer is not identified. Accordingly, these financial statements include pension costs payable on a defined contribution basis in accordance with FRS 102.

Pension costs charged to the Statement of Financial Activities represent the contributions payable by the Association during the year.

r) FOREIGN CURRENCIES

Assets and liabilities in foreign currency are translated into sterling at the rate of exchange ruling at the balance sheet date. Transactions in the year in foreign currency are translated into sterling at the rate of exchange ruling at the date of the transaction. Exchange differences are recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities when arriving at the net movement in funds.

s) PROVISIONS

Provisions are recognised when the Company has an obligation at the reporting date as a result of a past event which it is probable will result in the transfer of economic benefits and that obligation can be estimated reliably.

Provisions are measured at the best estimate of the amounts required to settle the obligation. Where the effect of the time value of money is material, the provision is based on the present value of those amounts, discounted at the pre-tax discount rate that reflects the risks specific to the liability. The unwinding of the discount is recognised within interest payable and similar expenses.

t) SIGNIFICANT JUDGEMENT AND ESTIMATES

The only estimate of significance made by the trustees in the preparation of the financial statements is considered to be the period over which leasehold improvements are depreciated, which is as disclosed in Note 1 k).

The key judgment made by the trustees is the residual value of the long leasehold interest in Rochester Row which the trustees considered to be materially comparable to its cost.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES AND MEMBERS OF HEALTHCARE FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT ASSOCIATION

Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of Healthcare Financial Management Association (the ‘parent charitable company’) and its subsidiaries (the ‘group’) for the year ended 30 June 2022 which comprise the Consolidated and Charity Statement of Financial Activities (including the Summary Income and Expenditure Account) the Consolidated and Charity Balance Sheets, the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows and notes to the financial statements, including significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including FRS 102 “The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland” (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

In our opinion the financial statements:

In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees’ use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.

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 or parent charitable 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.

Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.

Other information

The other information comprises the information included in the Trustees Report other than the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. The trustees are responsible for the other information contained within the Trustees Report. 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.

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 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.

Basis for opinion

We have been appointed auditor under section 44(1)(c) of the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) Act 2005 section 151 of the Charities Act 2011 and under the Companies Act 2006 and report in accordance with regulations made under those Acts.

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the group and parent charitable company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC’s Ethical Standard and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

We have nothing to report in this regard.

Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006

In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:

Conclusions relating to going concern

HFMA ANNUAL REPORT 2021 – 2022 30 Company Number: 5787972

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT (continued)

Matters on which we are required to report by exception

In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the group and the parent charitable company and their environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the directors’ report or the strategic report, included within the Trustees Report.

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters where the Companies Act 2006 and the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006 (as amended) require us to report to you if, in our opinion:

Responsibilities of trustees

As explained more fully in the statement of trustees’ responsibilities set out on page 7 the trustees (who are also the directors of the charitable company for the purposes of company law) 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 trustees 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 trustees are responsible for assessing the group’s and parent charitable 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 trustees either intend to liquidate the group or parent charitable company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Auditor’s 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 auditor’s 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.

The extent to which the audit was considered capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud

Irregularities are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. The objectives of our audit are to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding compliance with laws and regulations that have a direct effect on the determination of material amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, to perform audit procedures to help identify instances of non-compliance with other laws and regulations that may have a material effect on the financial statements, and to respond appropriately to identified or suspected non-compliance with laws and regulations identified during the audit.

In relation to fraud, the objectives of our audit are to identify and assess the risk of material misstatement of the financial statements due to fraud, to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the assessed risks of material misstatement due to fraud through designing and implementing appropriate responses and to respond appropriately to fraud or suspected fraud identified during the audit.

However, it is the primary responsibility of management, with the oversight of those charged with governance, to ensure that the entity's operations are conducted in accordance with the provisions of laws and regulations and for the prevention and detection of fraud.

In identifying and assessing risks of material misstatement in respect of irregularities, including fraud, the group audit engagement team:

As a result of these procedures we consider the most significant laws and regulations that have a direct impact on the financial statements are FRS 102, Charities SORP (FRS 102), Companies Act 2006, Charities Act 2011, Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) Act 2005, the parent charitable company’s governing document and tax legislation. We performed audit procedures to detect noncompliances which may have a material impact on the financial statements which included reviewing the financial statements including the Trustees’ Report, remaining alert to new or unusual transactions which may not be in accordance with the governing documents, inspecting correspondence with local tax authorities and evaluating advice received from internal/external advisors.

HFMA ANNUAL REPORT 2021 – 2022 31 Company Number: 5787972

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT (continued)

The most significant laws and regulations that have an indirect impact on the financial statements are those in relation to the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR). We performed audit procedures to inquire of management whether the group is in compliance with these law and regulations and inspected correspondence with regulatory authorities.

The audit engagement team identified the risk of management override of controls and the existence and valuation of income as the areas where the financial statements were most susceptible to material misstatement due to fraud. Audit procedures performed included but were not limited to testing manual journal entries and other adjustments and evaluating the business rationale in relation to significant, unusual transactions and transactions entered into outside the normal course of business, challenging judgments and estimates, and performing substantive test of details over a sample of income streams.

A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council’s website at http://www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditor’s report.
