The society of StStephen'5 House Statèmtrrtof A¢¢ounting Polici88 For the year gndgd 30 June 2024 Charity information The Society of St stephen's House is a reglstered eharity and a company limited by guarantee, Incorporated on 12 February 2018 and registered as a charity on the 7 March 2018 (the assets and liabilities of the unincorporated charity The Society of St Stephen's House, formed by an indenture dateol 16th August 1876 and enrolled in the High Court of Justice Ichancery Division), were transferred by deed of transfer on 1 July 20181. Forassets under a Charity Commission Scheme. Thèsociety of St stephen's House is now the solèTrustee of that scheme and the assets under the Scheme are now under the control ofthis charity and Induded in its accounts. Basls of Prepara￿on Thefinancial statements have t*en prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Accounting Standards, In particular 'FRS 102..

IFRS 1021 and in accordance with'The Slalement of Recornmended practi￿ appIl￿blet0 charities preparing theirfinancial statements in accordance with FRS 102, (rhe Charities SORP IFRS 10211. The fin8ncial 51alements have been prepared on 8 going con￿rn b85is and on the historical c05t basis. The principal a¢¢ounting policies adopted are set out below and have been applied Gonsi$tently throughouttheyear. Going contÈm The continued actual and forecast deficits on general fund operations of the charity has necessitated a detailed review of the going concern basis of accounting in preparation of the charity accounts. The Truste&s remain content that the charity has substantial net assets amounting to over £14.5 million and these include significant property assets in excess of those needed for charitable operations. The Trustees note thst the free reserwe8 balsnce lunrestricled funds held within nel current asset81 is under £100k at 30 June 2024, and that continued defi￿t8 are forecast for 2024125 and 2025126. meaning that free reser4es would be extinguished within that timeframe without the realisation of property sssets, in addition to the planned re81isstion of available other investrnents. The Trustees have concluded that there would be a rnaterial uncertainty over going concern at the date of the approval of these financial statements if property 355ets are not solcl or a new loan raised against property assets. As a result of this, the Trustees have made the decision to. either". Sell Some property subsequent to the year end, or take out new loan finance, with sufficiently long repayment dates of greater than two years. lo raise similar funds. The aim is to complete the transaction to rsise funds as Soon as possible within th8 next 12 months. The proceed8 of this transaction, together with the planned sale of 8vai18ble other investments, will mean that free reserves are replenished to the extent that any forecast deficits will be covered well in excess of the 12 months from date of approval. The Trustees therefore rernain content that the going Goncern ba51S Gontinues to be appropriate in preparation of the financial $t8tement$.

An equity sharing loan of £187,000 was advanced by the Church Commissioners to fund 95.6% of the purchase of 36 James Street, Oxford. (The initial interest rate was 3% and moves annually in line with RPI.) The amount repayable upon the sale of the property is the greater of £167,000 and 95.6% of the sale value. The market value of the property is £1,240,000 and hence the fair value of the loan is £1,185,440. The fair value of the loan, where greater than £167,000, is therefore by definition at all times fully offset by the associated asset and does not affect the net asset value of the Society.

The ACOCF loan is a long term loan of £67,191, at a rate of 0.1% interest per annum secured on part of the property at 16 Marston Street, Oxford. On repayment, there is an additional equity share element to repay, being 33.6% of any increase in the value of the asset. Hence the loan has been included in the financial accounts at the fair value of £1,129,879. The value of the associated asset has also been included at undepreciated fair value.

The Handelsbanken bank loan was taken out in December 2020 to fund the re-finance of 23 James Street, Oxford. The loan repayment date has been renegotiated for an additional year, to fall due on 7 December 2025.

Church of England Funded Pension Scheme (CEFPS)

The Society of St Stephen's House participates in the Church of England Funded Pensions Scheme for stipendiary clergy, a defined benefit pension scheme. This scheme is administered by the Church of England Pensions Board, which holds the assets of the scheme separately from those of the Responsible Bodies.

Each participating Responsible Body in the Church of England Funded Pensions Scheme pays contributions at a common contribution rate applied to pensionable stipends.

liabilities to each specific Responsible Body, and this means contributions are accounted for as if the Scheme were a defined contribution scheme. The pensions costs charged to the SoFA in the year are contributions payable towards benefits and expenses accrued in that year.

A valuation of the Scheme is carried out once every three years. The most recent Scheme valuation completed was carried out at as 31 December 2021. The 2021 valuation revealed a surplus of £560m, based on assets of £2,720m and a funding target of £2,160m, assessed using the following assumptions:

An average discount rate of 2.7% p.a.;

RPI inflation of 3.6% p.a. (and pension increases consistent

CPIH inflation in line with RPI less 0.8% pre 2030 moving to RPI with no adjustment from 2030 onwards;

Increase in pensionable stipends in line with CPIH;

Mortality in accordance with 90% of the S3NA tables, with allowance for improvements in mortality rates in line with the CMI2020 extended model with a long term annual rate of improvement of 1.5%, a smoothing parameter of 7, an initial addition to mortality improvements of 0.5% pa and an allowance for 2020 data of 0% (i.e. w2020 = 0%).

Following the 31 December 2018 valuation, a deficit recovery plan was put in place until 31 December 2022 and the deficit recovery contributions (as a percentage of pensionable stipends) were as set out in the table below. An interim reduction to deficit contributions to 3.2% of pensionable stipends was made with effect from 1 April 2022. Following finalisation of the 31 December 2021 valuation, deficit contributions ceased with effect from 1 January 2023, since the Scheme was in surplus.

Section 28.11A of FRS 102 requires agreed deficit recovery payments to be recognised as a liability. However, as there are no agreed deficit recovery payments from 1 January 2023 onwards, the balance sheet liability as at 30 June 2024 is nil.

The legal structure of the scheme is such that if another Responsible Body fails, The Society of St Stephen's House could become responsible for paying a share

Church Workers Pension Fund (CWPF)

Pensions Board, which holds the CWPF assets separately from those of the Employer and other participating employers.

CWPF has two sections:

  1. the Defined Benefits Scheme

  2. the Pension Builder Scheme, which has two

  3. (a) a deferred annuity section known as Pension

  4. (b) a cash balance section known as Pension Builder 2014.

Pension Builder Scheme

Both sections of the Pension Builder Scheme are classed as defined benefit schemes.

Pension Builder Classic provides a pension, accumulated from contributions paid and converted into a deferred annuity during employment based on terms set and reviewed by the Church of England Pensions Board from time to time. Discretionary increases may also be added, depending on investment returns and other factors.

Pension Builder 2014 is a cash balance scheme that provides a lump sum which members use to provide benefits at retirement. Pension contributions are recorded in an account for each member. Discretionary bonuses may be added before retirement, depending on investment returns and other factors. The account, plus any bonuses declared is payable, unreduced, from age 65.

There is no sub-division of assets between employers in each section of the Pension Builder Scheme.

The scheme is considered to be a multi-employer scheme as described in Section 28 of FRS 102. This is because it is not possible to attribute the Pension

scheme. The pensions costs charged to the SoFA in the year are the contributions payable.

A valuation of the Pension Builder Scheme is carried out once every three years. The most recent valuation was carried out as at 31 December 2019. The next valuation is due as at 31 December 2022.

For the Pension Builder Classic section, the valuation revealed a deficit of £4.8m on the ongoing assumptions used. At the most recent annual review, the Board chose to grant a discretionary bonus of 10.1% following improvements in the funding position over 2022. There is no requirement for deficit payments at the current time.

For the Pension Builder 2014 section, the valuation revealed a surplus of £5.5m on the ongoing assumptions used. There is no requirement for deficit payments at the current time.

University of Oxford Staff Pension Scheme (OSPS)

The University of Oxford Staff Pension Scheme (OSPS) is a multi-employer hybrid scheme set up under trust and sponsored by the University. It is the pension scheme for support staff at the University, participating colleges and other related employers. New members joining the scheme build up benefits on a defined

The latest full actuarial valuation for the OSPS scheme was completed as at 31 March 2022. The funding position of this scheme has improved significantly moving from deficit of £113m to a surplus of £47m at the valuation date. As a result, the recovery plan agreed at the last valuation is no longer required and the

The Trustee and the University have agreed a new contribution schedule which took effect from 1 October 2023 and takes account of the benefit improvements and changes to member contributions since the last valuation date. It was agreed that the scheme will meet its own running costs from the scheme's assets,
