The charity has a low fixed cost base, with all contracts either paid up-front for the year or able to be terminated within three months. The charity receives a steady income stream from its investment portfolio, and it is considered highly unlikely that this would cease immediately. There could however be a steady or Sudden reduction in this and other income streams arising from events outside of the charity's control and sufficient liquid reserves should therefore be held to cover a stressed drop in income over a period of three months to cover termination notices for committed expenditure.

The charity maintained a direct cash coverage of approximately two times their three-month overheads throughout the year. only considering their current account cash. With the cash held in their investment portfolio also available in case of an unforeseen outgoing, the Trustees consider that the level of liquid reserves is sufficient to enable the charity to continue to operate despite any unforeseen reduction in income.

ADB5ADDA-7B9542E9-984B-BD1780B8C287 The Irish Guards Charitv Independent Auditorfs Report to the Trustees of The Irish Guards Charity Opinion We have audited the financial statements of The Irlsh Guards Charity (the 'charity'l for the year ended 31 December 2024 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, Balance Sheet, Statement of Cashflows and notes to the f inancial 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 Financial Reporting Standard 102 The Financial Reporting Stundord applicable in the UK and Republic of Irelond (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). In our opinion the financial statements.. give a true and fair view of the state of the charity's affairs 85 at 31 December 2024, and of its incoming resources and application of resources, including its income and expenditure, for the year then ended; have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011. Basis for opinion We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing {UKI IISAS IUKI} and applicable law.

We are independent of the charity 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 requirement5.

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 charity's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve month5 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. Page19

The trustees are responsible for the other information contained within the annual 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 materia5 inconslStencie5 or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whetherthis 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 thi5 regard. Matters on which we are required to report by exception We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2(NJ8 require us to report to you if, in our opinion.. the information given in the financial statements is inconsistent in any material respect with the trustees, report,. or the charity has not kept adequate accounting records,. or the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or we have not received all the informatlon and explanations we require for our audit.

DocusKJn Envelope ID.. ADBS￿DDA-7B9S42E9-984￿8Dl78DBS¢ZB7 The Irish Guards Charity Auditor responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements We have been appointed as auditor under section 144 ofthe Charities Act 2011 and report in accordance with regulations made under section 154 of that Act. Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statement5 as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. and to issue an auditorfs 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 IUKI 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. Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We 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: Enquiry of management and those charged with governance about actual and potential litigation or claims and the identification of non-compliance with laws and regulations. Reviewing minutes of meetings of those charged wlth governance. Reviewing financial statement disclosures and testing to supporting documentation to assess compliance with applicable laws and regulations. Auditing the risk of management override of controls, including testing journal entries and other adjustments for appropriateness. Performing analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected relationships that may indicate risks of material misstatement due to fraud. Professional scepticism in course of the audlt and with audit sampling In material audit areas. 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 trar15actions 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. Page 111
