Financial review Despite challenging financial ts'mes, the company ha5 £0ntinued to perform well. The cornpany's performance for the year was broadly consistent with bijdget expectations, with only minor variances across income and expenditure headings. Income Total income was close to budget. Touring activity performed ahead of expectations due to timing of engagements. while income from education. JV2. 3ftd ctrtommissioning partners was slightly below forecast. These variations are not expected to have a lasting impart on future performance. Expenditu Overall expendilure was below budget. Favourable variances Br05e from staff c05t saving5, tirniTr8 of education and oulreach activity, and reduced building c05t5. These wewe partially offset by higher creative and tOUTing costs incurred earlier than planned but that sil alonESide the increased touring income.

JASMIN VARDIMON COMPANY UMITED INDEPENOENT AUDITOR'5 REPORT ICONTINUEDI TO THE TRUSTEES OF JASMIN VARDIMON COMPANY LIMITED 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 Reportsl Regulations 2008 require us to report to you if, in our opinion.. the information given in the financial statements is inconsistent in any material respett with the trustees, report; or sufficient accounting records have not been kept- or the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records,. or we have not received all the information and explanations we requi for our audit. Responsibilities of trustees As explained more fully in the statement of trustees, responsibilitres, the trustees, who are also the directors of the charity for the purpose of company law, are responsible for the prepardtion 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 misstatemenL whether due to fraud or error. In preparing the financlal statements, the trustees are rest)onsible for assessing the charity's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unles5 the trustees either intend to liquidate the charitsble compny or to tease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so. Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements We have been appointed as auditor under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 and report in accordance with the Act and relevant regulations made or having effect thereunder. 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 audit0S report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not a guarantee that an audit conrhJcted In accordance with ISAS IUKI will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements (an arise from fraud OT error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggTe8ate, they could reasonably be expected to inflLtence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements. Irregularlties, including fraud, are Instances of non-compliance wlth lawg and regulations. The extent to which Ouf procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud, is detailed below. Extent to which the audlt was tonsldered capable of detectin8 Irre8ularities. inc5udin8 fraud The objective5 of our audit, in respect to fraud, are.. to identify and assess the risks of materia MStatement ot the financial statements due to fraud,. to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the assessed risks of material misstatement due to fraud. through designin8 and implementing appropriate responses,. and to respond appropriately to fraud or suspected fraud identilied during the audit. However, the primary responsibility for the preventiorTr and detection of fraud rests with both those charged with governance of the entity and its management.
JASMIN VARDIMON COMPANY LIMITED INDEPENDEMf AUDITOR'S REPORT ICONTINUEDI TO THE TRUSTEES OF JASMIN VARDIMON COMPANY LIMITED Our approach wa5 a5 follows- We tdents"fi"ed areas of laws and regulations thai could reasonably be expected to have a material effect on the h'nancièl st3tements from our general commercial and sector experience, and through discussion with the director5 and other management 13$ required by auditing slandardsl, and discussed with the directors and other management the policies and procedures regardFng compliance with laws and regulation5,' We identifi'ed the following areas as those most likely to have such an effecl.. health and safety,. General Data Protection Regulatr"on IGDPRI.. fraud,. bribery and corruptior¥ and employment law. Auditing standards limit the required avdit procedures to identify non-compliance with these laws and regulatt'ons to enquiry of the truslees and other management and inspection of regulatory and legal correspondence, if any. We considered the legal and regulatory frameworks directty applicable to the financial statements ieportir7g framework IFRS 102 and the Companie5 Act 2W6 and the Charities Act 20111 and the relevant tax compliance regulatton5 Trri the UK." We cons¥dered the nature of the company's operations, the conirol environment and business performance, including the key drivers for management's remuneration,. We communicaled identilied law5 and regulations ihroughout our team and remained alert to any indications of non-compliance throughout the audit.. We con%idered the procedÈJres and controls Ihat the group hès established to address risks identt'hed, or that otherwise prevent, dete¥ and detect fraijd.. and how seniof management monitors rh05e progfammes and controls. Based on this unde.r%tbnding we designpd our audit pror.pdures to identify norFcomplianre with SLJQ.h law% and regulabons. Where the risk was consideFed to be higher, we performed atjdil PTocedures to oddre55 e&li identifi.ed fraud risk. These procedures included.. tesb'ng manual journals,. reviewing the financial statement disclosure5 and testing to supporting documentation,. performing analyttcal procedures,. and enquiring of management, and were designed to provide reasonable assurance that the financial stalements were free from fraud or error. Owing to the inherent limitations of an audit, there is an unavoidable risk that we may not have delected some material misstatements in the linancial statements, even though we have properly planned and performed our audit in accordance with audits.ng standards. For example, the further removed non- compliance with laws and regulations lirregularith'esl is from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, the less likely the inherently limited procedures required by auditing standards would identify it_ The risk is also greater regarding irregularities occurring due to fraud rather thèn Èrror, as fraud involves intentional concealment, forgery, collusion, omission or misrepresentation. We are Trot re5P0115ible for preventr'ng non-compliance and cannot be expected to detect non-compliance with all laws and reeulations.
