This was enhanced during the pandemic.. for the first six months all-5taff emails were sent weekly and all-staff meetings were held on Zoom at least monthly to keep employees informed about the company's emergency response plan, its ongoing lobbying, to maintain cohesion amongst colleague groups who were physically separated and provide welfare support to whomever needed It. An inltial three month5 of complete lockdown saw all staff working from home and dancers CeIVIng oaching and class digitally. The return of the dancers to the studios was prioritised at the end of lune to maintain physic21 fitness, and 3 5rnalS number of essential staff also returned to facilitate the conversion of the Mulryan Centre for Dance studios into a Covid-secure working environment. Meeting5 contlnued to tske place with staff committees representing our dancers, orchestra, and technical teams and the frequency was increased because of the degree of change to working environments and financial pressures on the organisation throughout the pandemic. In addition to pav and benefits, these staff committees were consulted on health and safety, with Specific reference to Covid-security and were also a key forum for sharing how the company's emer8ency plannir)8 and advocacy was taking shape. Committee members were encouraged to raise any specific areas of concern to the staff they represent. These meetings were minuted and action lists tracked. As well as Staff meetings and staff committees, a number of staff suNeys have been completed to feed into return-to-work planning and ENB'S future approach to hybrid working. Focus group5 and one-to-one sessions were offered to all stJff to gain specif ic insight into staff engagement and welfare from the point of view of protected characteristics, the data from which is informing both ENB'S EDI strategy and artion plan and a review of its staff policies.

Cancelled performances included.. The world premiere of Akram Khan's Creoture at Sadlerfs We11s in April 2020 and subsequent tour, with the loss of 23 performances across the year. 14 performances of Swan Lake in-the-round at the Royal Albert Hall in June 2020. The world premiere and nation21 tour of Tamara Rojo's RGyrnondo between October 2020 and January 2021, with the loss of 28 performances across four venues. 31 perform3nTr5 of the Nutcrucker at the London Coliseum across December 2020 and January 2021. The national tour of My First Cin(Jerella. with the1055 of 38 performances across four venues, as well as the planned tour of My First 5wtJn L(Jke, due to premiere in tv1arch 2021. International tours to Barcelona in April 2020. Mexico City in May 2020, Paris in July 2020, and Montreal and Chicago in March 2021. Despite the cance113tion of our national 2nd intern3tional performances, a drastic reduction in income and the changes to staffing that were required as a result, we h3ve continued to deliver on our mission to bring world-class ballet to as many people as possible, wherever they are ?nd whatever their means. We repurposed as much of our resources as possible to deliver an Emergenry Response Plan in May 2020. with its aim to keep the company intact and solvent, remain active throughout lockdown and, wherever possible, supporting the wider recovery of the arts sector. In orderto achieve these aims, we focused our resources on,. providing as much work as could be afforded to ENB'S wider 8roup of colleagLie5 such as its orchestra. casual technical and prodLJCtion teams, Bnd freelance makers, creative teams and teachers,. strengthening our digit31 assets and ensuring an innovative and relevant online offer,. retaining long-term relationships wtth partner venues and co-producers and supportin8 their recovery where we could,. maxlmising reach through film, digital content and classe5, as well as Safe options for smaller scale live performance: repurposinE finances to prioriiise investment in areas critical for recovery,. and usin8 London City Island facilities to support wider sector recovery. We were proud to win the award for the Best Company Response to the Pandemic at the 3nnu31 National Dance Awards in lune 2021. We also undertook some of the last Stages of oijr capital projert to complete our London City Island facilities during the year, with most of the fin31 fit-out snagging and remediation work carried Dut during the lockdowns. We were thrilled to name our building the M ulryan Centre for Dance, in recognition of Sean Mulryan and his farnily for their continued support of EN8 and the capital project froffl the outset. We were also proud to be awarded the Royal I nstitute of British Architects, IRIBAI London Suilding of the Year 2021, a Rl BA London Award 2021, a RIBA National Award 2021, and 5hortlisted for the upcoming AJ Architecture Awards 2021 in the Community, Cultural and Health category, having won AIIOO Building of the Year in 2020. in addition to orher international 3rchitecture awards. In all, ENB lost 55% of its budgeted income in 2020121. Other than a small number of st3ff le3vin8 during the year, the Company ha5 remained intact in size and vision. We are grateful to everyone who played a part in the survival of EN8 during the year, and who continue to work hard in their efforts to sustain the spirit of EN8. A crucial reason for ENB suNiving the 2020121 Year is due to the efforts of its own staff. All Staff members made sacrifices-. we unfortunately said goodbye to a small number, some after many years 1101

This was an or8anisation-wide effort We are also thankful that the Company had firmly established itself at London City Island well before the pandemic, as the improved facilities gave EN8 many more opportunities than it would otherwise have had in its previous Victorian premises in Kensington. And last, but not least, we are grateful for Arts Council England's constant support and their critical Emergency Funding, to the Department for Digital, Culture, Medi8 and Sport IDCMSI and the Government's Culture Recovery Fund, and to all of our donors who gave us the financial and moral support to enable ENB to keep going into its 71, year. How ENB met its strategic priorities during the year l. Conslstentty deltverln8 ardstlc excellence and creatlvlty We moved quickly to digital platforms to ensure that we could continue to create, perform and sustain our artlstic impact while communicating with our audiences. ENB'S Artistic Director, Tamara Rojo, began sharing daily open-acces5 classes from her kitchen via YouTube within 24 hours of lockdown. This provided professional class for all of the company's dancers restrirted tD their homes, but 3150 to professional dancers around the world wishing to maintain fitness. We shared the best of our companvs skill and talent via our free Wednesday Watch Parties, which saw audiences around the world invited weekly to enjoy never before seen full-lengLh iecordings of Company performances, with premieres on Facebook and YouTube. The musicians of ENB Philharmonic supplemented these performance events by joining together from their homes to perform virtual renditions of extracts from Swan Lake, and then from Alexander Glazunorfs Roymondo, to say thank you to the NH5. By September 2020 we were able to live-stream our first new live performance and took the opportunity to showcase our best young dancers, with six finalists competing in our Emerging Dancer competitior). We were able to broadcast the live performance event in a Covid-secure way from our own Holloway Production Studio. thanks to the Iheatre-sized space's generous proportions and fresh air flow. The event showcased the very best of ENB'S artistic excellence and emerging talent in the highlights of classical repertoire, the newly commissioned work by Company dancers and youngfreelance choreographers, and the live music performed by a socially distanced ENB Philharmonic. The Holloway Production Studio 81so proved transformational to our ability to develop a professional film studio. where we were able to create five new dance films made by a diverse group of choreographers and filmmakers to launch our digital season in November 2020. Filmmaker Amy Becker-Burnett worked with choreographer Arielle Smith to create an energetic, old rnovie musical inspired, Jolly Folly. Shaun J3mes Grant collaboratèd with ENB Associate Choreographer Stina Quagebeur on Take Five Blues, a response to Bach's Vivace and Paul Desmond'sjazz standard, Take Five. Michael Nunn and William Trevitt worked with Russell Maliphant on Echoes, which also used light as an integral partner. FilmmakerThomas Jatne5 worked on the creation of the fial two filrn5.' Laid in Earth with choreographer Sidi Larbi Cherkaoui. and Senseless Kindness choreographed by Yuri Pos50khov and b3sed on V2sily Grossman's gre3t novel, Life and Fate. Although ENB'S largescale productions could not be performed live on stage as planned under Covid restrictions, we were able to progre55 the development of both of the major new works which had been intended to premiere in 2020, thanks again to the quality and scale of the new facilities at the Mulryan

We created Covid-secure cast bubbles to safely complete Akram Khan's new full-length work. Creature, and we made significant progress on the creation of Tamara Rojo's new version of Roymondo. Both of these assets will be cornerstones of starting our recovery in 21122. They will be vital for retaining ourtalented artists, reactivating our partner venues, employing numerous freelance partner rtists and building back our high-profile international touring and co-production relationships. The SucsSful completion of Creoture. coupled with the rich learning from the digital season, gave u5 the skills and confidence to additionally capture Creoture as a new feature film, with Oscar winning film director, Asif Kapadia in April 2021. We ensured we were ready to take advant2ge of all opportunities for socially distanced live stage perform3nces by preparing a live version of our digital works, Reunion, and a new, smaller-scale Nutcrocker Delights, using an innovative combin8tion of digital and projection story-telling and live performance and music. Unfortunately, both shows had to be cancelled when the second and third lockdowns were introduced, but they have been captured on film and shared for free on YouTube as a gift to our followers and provide options for future live perform3nce. Whilst much of our planned Engagement work could not go ahead, we reshaped artivity where we could 3nd gained insight into the possibilitie5 of hybrid delivery as a result. A particular focus was proactivelv supporting those most severely affected by isolation and physical and mental wellbeing during the pandemic. For example, we consulted with people livin8 With Parkinson's as we trained Associate Artists for transitioning EN B Dance for Parkinson's to online. Our major pro8rammes for developing youth talent and participation, Dance Journeys and ENBYouthCo. were maintained with online option5 such as a free Youth Dance Intensive during the school holidays and the opportunity to create new dance-for-c2mera films. In addition, ENBYouthCo-nnect was launched to support and connect young people through lockdown. 2. Nurturlng and developln8 talen( on and off stsge While nurturing and developing talent remained a goal in the year, the impact of the pandemic on ways of working, physic31 and mental wellbeing and the resources of the company meant that our main focus in 2020121 was on talent retention and welfare. A key focus throughout the year was managing Covid-security at the Mulryan Centre for Dance to keep our elite dancers in shape throughout lockdown and then to restart creation 3nd rehearsal safely. Our return-to-work plan enabSed wider staff consultation and increment31 reopening. This approach was used S 3 case study for other organisations by Parents in Performing Arts. Our Emerging Dancer live-streamed event was an opportunity to further nurture land showcase) our emergin8 talent, with six finalists receiving coaching f rom senior members of the Company, before performing in front of a panel of judges. New choreographic commissions were created by ENB FirstArtist and Associaie Choreographer Stina Quagebeur, ENB Lead Principèl Jeffrey Cirio and Ballet Black dancer and choreographer Mthuthuzeli November. The whole event was produced by James Streeter as part of ENU'S Dance Le3ders of the Future, a mentoring and skills development progr3mme focused on sharing wider industry skills and succession planning. We also treated freelancers respertfully during the pandemic, paying people and suppliers on time and honouring commitments wherever possible. Although opportunities were limited, we were able to start work with a wide range of makers and designers from all over the UK as we created the digital season and feature film capture of Creature, as well as progressing our production of Rayrnonda. Across our Engagement work, 52 freelance Associate ArtlSt5 delivered work during this period, some new to ENB, 1121

Ensurlng su5talnable growth Prior to the start of the 2020121 year, ENB had p13ns in place to achieve some level of sustainable growth while facing into the uncertainty created by Brexit, continued inflationary pressure on costs and 3 challenging and competitive f unding environment. Little did we know about the seismic consequences of the Covid pandemic and its specific impact on the perfDrming arts sector, let alone the challenge to EN8's own survival and sustainability. 2020121 was supposed to be the Company'5 first full year of occupancy at its new hotne at London City Island, a year in which ENB hoped to develop an understanding of the costs of runninE a premlses f ive times the size of its previous home, as well 3s work to optimise the building for rehears31, eng38ement and outreach, working with other organisations, and delivering events and hires. While ENB has remained operation31 throughout the pandemic, the building was closed f rom March 2020 until the end of June 2020, at which time only dancers returned for class, training and rehabilitation, and later rehearsals. Artistic activity was 518nif icantly enabled by ENB'S Return to Work team which met year- round to react and respond to changes in public health guidance. The ieam was a cross-functional team focussed on ensuring a Covid-secure way to enable artistic activity to continue productively. This enabled the completion of Akram Khan's Creature, which was almost completed before the first lockdown but was only able to be completed a year later, and also enabled work to start on Tamara Rojo's Roymondo for 2021122. Administrative colleagues have worked remotely throughout and returned to the Mulryan Centre for Dance from late summer 2021. The Ernergeng Response Plan enacted by the Company in May 2020 provided the or8anisation with a clear strategy for the year with enough flexibility to adapt to changing rules and conditions. EN8 also worked collaboratively wilh venue partners such as Sadlerfs Wells and the London Coliseum. where we each adapted Dur business models and usu31 ways of working to help each other deliver both live performance and keeping venues open with viable content.

ENB reco8nises that not everyone associated with the company could be 5UPPOrted throughout lockdown, however we always accessed whatever assistance we could in an equitable and fair way. Cost saving5 were made WheVer possible, balanced against not cutting costs in the short term if they would result in higher longer-term costs.

ENB has part-acquired a 199-year leasehold of its building which begin5 to secure its future. with the finèl part-acquisition in the 2021122 year. The Mulryan Centre for Dance has played a key role in ENB'S surviva during the pandemic, providing space, access, and the technolo to stay open. remain active, create and to sustain some level of earned income. The Company being performance-ready in May 2021 is in no small part due to the fortuitOUS timing of the completion of the London Citylsland capital project. 1141

In addition to the ACE NPO grant and theatre tax relief, ENB has always relied on its income via box office sales from growing attenclance numbers and fundraising to enable it to continue its mission to deliver excellent work tD as many people as possible. The financial year saw the full impart of the Covid-19 pandemic on ENB'S operations and finances. with the complete loss of income from normal charitable activities (ticket sales and tour fèes, outreach and engagement activityl, and a significant decline in trading attivities.

Credit risk.. risk on amounts Dwed to the Charity by its customers is relatively low as payment from venue settlernents are with established commercial theatre owners and advances are regularly received ahead of our performances atthe venue. Donations are mostly recorded at the point of receipt. Trading income, such as for hires and events using ENB'S facilities, require a sizeable upfront deposit or are paid in advance, and is not a material risk to create a credit risk. pri risk- In more normal years, payroll costs reprèsent 51% of total expenditure for the Charity and higher levels of inf lation represent 3 risk as over 30% of the total income for ENB comes from Arts Council England, which has been at a stand-still level for many years. The Charity has some freedom over its ticket pricing, and box off ice incorne represents over 40% of revenue. The pricing str3tegy aims to hold the lowest ticket price at an accessible level. Cash flow risk.. Surplus funds are placed with two major clearing banks. Short-term working capital requirements were able to be met with the £Sm revolving credit faclllty available with Barclays Bank, which expirÈd in lune 2021 but is avai13ble for renewal. Liquidity risk.. Risk on Snterest payments is low as the annual interest cost of drawing down on the faciltty in full would have been less than 0.01% of total income. Reserves Pollcy.. The Company operate5 on the basi5 that. over a typical Arts Council England National Portfolio Organisation INPOI funding cycle of three or four years. revenue will exceed expenditure. This model allows for regular investment in new work or repertoire at varying levels of expenditu re whose costs can then be recovered over the longer term. Tho lon8-term sustainability of the Company Is laelY dependent upon continued funding from Art5 Council England. TheTrustees ensure that the relev3nt officer5 of Arts Council England are kept informed of the Company's achievements, plans and aspirations at all times through re8ular meetings, written reports, and completing Arts Council England data gathering exercises. 1181

Procedures are then implemented which are designed to minimise the likelihood or poiential impact on the charity should those risks materiali5e. The principal risks to English National Ballet are.. Covld-19 Financial risk and uncertalnty- The Covid-19 pandemic is the most significant risk that has impacted £NB in its recent history. Since lockdown was mandated by the UK Government in March 2020, performance venues were mainly closed with the first real and sustained opportunity to reopen on 17 May 2021. EN B, along with all its sector collea8ues in the performing arts, has faced si8nificant financial challenges throu8hout the year. The impact of closure and public health measures has been felt in the wider economy along with all our staff, freelance colleagues, audience members, our many suppliers and venue network, and resulted in unprecedented disruption to our organisation. business, c35hflow and reserves. ENB lost 55Yo of its unrestricted incomo compared to the 2019120 financial year, while still incurring Its fixed costs, which include staff costs and fixed overhead5. With a55iSt3nce from ACE'5 Emergency Response Fund, the Government's Culture Recovery Fund and the aRS furloughing scheme, ENB was supported in its ability to remain a going concern through the financial year. Looking ahead, there are a number of financial risks. These include.. Continued uncertainty from the impact and length of Covid-19 on aud ience confidence, public health guidance and mitigatiDns. Reduced ability to commission and invest in new assets or to provide a hi8h-quality diverse repertoire if the impact of the pandemic continually diminishes ENB'S reserves. The commercial viability of our UK and international partner venues which enables ENB to tour 3nd perform. The viability of international touring. The ability to restart ENB'S Commercial income streams to a level that is needed to help enable financial resilience. 1191

ENB'S 2021122 and 2022123 financial plans forecast that income levels will remain lower than in previous years, while the organisation will need to continue to reduce costs as much a5 possible while rebuilding all of it5 income streams.

EN8's VAT advisors continue to progress resolution of the VAT submissions to seek fair outcomes. The Trustees will review ENB'S reserves policy and level of reserves required on an ongoing basis. Going concem.. Finèncial modelling, budgeting and cashflow forecasting work for the period to 31 March 2023 Indicates that EN8 expects to be able to meet its cost5 and liabilities and remain a going concern for 12 months forward from the date of signing these financial statements. Barclays Bank have also confirmed that ENB will be accepted for 3 loan facility, should it so need it. Consequently. EN B's Trustees are content to continue to adopt the going concem basis of accountin8. At the same time, all avenues to secure additional f inancial support will be pursued to ensure ENB'5 long-term financial sustainability. Fundraising risk.. Fundraising income is a key source of contributed income which ENB relies upon to carry out various projects and productions, and the impact of Covid-19 on the general economy creates a significant risk to fundraisin8. Since lockdown in March 2020, even with few opportunities to perform or host events, ENB has worked hard to continue to attract grants, donations and sponsorship income. assisted bv continued engagement with audiences and participants. ENB acknowledges an increasin8ly challenging and competitive fundraising environment, and management will focus on accessing as much funding 3S posgible to secLJre ENB'S future. Staff and freelancer5'. Throughout the year, ENB strived to retain as many of its talented staff and freelancers as pogsible, especially the ellie talent pool of dancers whlch has tsken many years to build and which would take many years to reassemble if not retained. To minimise job losses, all st3ff agreed to a pay reduction of at least 20% for an initial period of 6 months, with those less well paid having their pay protected. and those on hi8her pay aicepting a higher reduction. The Government's Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme provided the support ENB needed to retain the majority of its workforce. Throughout this c105ure period, the health and wellbeing of ENB'S workforce w3£ of paramount priority. After a period of redundancies, pay reduction and furlough, as staff return to London City Is12nd from late surnmer 2021, ENB will focus on staff cohesiveness, resilience and a c3ring culture.

While trading income 15 signif icantly diminished because of the impact of Covid-19 and wi11 need to be rebuilt in challenging market conditions, associated costs of delivering that income are mainly variable in nature and can be quickly downscaled. The Trustees will continue to regularly review the progr3mme of activity, cashflow forecasts and private income sources. Internal financial controls are periodically reviewed to ensure they are f it for purpose.

Our 2021122 season began with live perform3nces of our 2020121 digit31 season on stage at Sadler's Wells in May 2021. and a socially distanced celebration of inspiring dance and music at the Royal Festival Hall in June. Because of the work done to continue cre3ting during lockdown, we will be able to present two world premieres in 2021122. The first, in September 2021, was Akram Khan's cature. the impact anol reach of which we hope wi51 be enhanced by the distribution of the additional feature film version captured during lockdown. Tamara Rojo's Roymonda. premiering in J8nu3ry 2022, will bring the cla551C story ir)to the setting of the Crimean war and draw Inspiration from the ground-breaking spirit of Florence Ni8htingale and her pioneerin8 nursing colleagues. This will continue our commitment to look at classics with fresh eyes and make them relevant by findin8 new contexts and amplifying new voices. Performances of The Forsvthe Evening In March 2022 will build on our re12tionship with William Forsythe to present a triple bill at Sadlerfs Wells comprising: Approximate Son3t3,' the UK premiere of Bloke Works I, fealuring the music of James Blake's album, The Colour in Anything,. and for the first timÈ in the UK, Playlist (EPJ an extended version of Playlist ITrock 1. 2). We will build on our d igital offer developed in 2020121 by refining hybrid models of delivery in 2021122, which we know from our pilots has the potential to improve engagement, retention and reach. Not only will this inform our artistic strategy for the next five years, but will strengther) our youth dance performance and Dance Health programme5. In 21122. we will build on our new partnership with Barchester Care Homes Idevelopod during lockdownl, to pilot an in-depth programme of Train the Tr3iners for care home staff. Dance for Dementia will be a key priority for ENB in supporting the elms of our neighbouring borDughs of Tower Hamlets and Newham, and the Mayor of London's vision for a Dement13 Friendly London. Our aim is to establish Mulryan Centre for Dance as a cu Itural anchor on London City Island for Dementia Friendly programming. As a Company, we returned to the Mulry3n Centre for Dance in August 2021 and reopened to the public soon after, receiving visitors, hirers and event attendees. Substantial commitments to talent development and diversification will also underpin our recovery and maximise our impact over the mediurn term. The Ballet Future5 Projett will build on tho foundational 2020/21 year to take on its first cohort of students in 2021122, and Dance Leaders of the Future will be expanded to take on more dancer5 for a two year programme and will be enhanced by additional professional training. 1211

Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not 3 guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAS IUKI will alway5 detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are c0ns1ded material If, individually or in aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to Influen the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements. As part of an audit in accordance with ISA5 IUKI we exercise professional judgement and maintain professional scepticism throughout the 3udit. We also-. Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financi31 statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risk5, and obtair) audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide 3 basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresent3tions, or the override of internal control. Obtai n an understanding of Internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purposes of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the group and parent charitable company's internal control.

If we conclude that a material uncertairTrty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditods report to the re13ted disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures 3re inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor's report. However. future events or conditions may cause the group or parent charitable company to cease to continue as a going concern. Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements. including the disc105u re5, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in 3 manner Ihat achieves fair presentation. Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the f Inancial information of the entities or business activities within the group to express an opinion on the con501idated financial statements.

EN6L15H NATIONAL LLET ILlmlted by guarantee) Registered Cornpany Number.. 735040 Charty Reeistration Number: 214005 The objectives of our audit in respect of fraud, are,. to identify and assess the risks of material mi55tatement of the financial statements due to fraud.. to obtain Sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the assessed risks of material misstatemi ent due to fraud, through designing and implementing appropriate responses to those assessed risks,. and to respond appropriately to instances of fraud or suspected fraud identified during the audit. However. the primary responsibility for the prevention and detection of fraud rests with both management and those charged with governance of the charitable company. Our approach was as follows.. We obtained an undersianding of the legal and regulatory requirements applicable to the charitable company and considered that the most Si8nificant are the Companies Act 2006, the Charities Act 2011, the Charity SORP, and UK financial reporting standards as issued by the Financi81 Reporting Council. We obtained an understanding of how the charFtable company complies with these requirements bv discussions with management 3nd those charged with governance. We 3S5essed the risk of material rnisstatement of the financial statement5, including the risk of material misststement due to fraud and how it might occur, by holding discussions with management and those charged with governènco. We inquired of management and those charged with gDvern3nce as to any known instances OF non- compliance or 5U5pected non-compliance with laws and gUlatiOns. Based on this understanding, we designed specific appropri3t@ audit procedures to identify instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. This included making enquiries of management and those charged with governance and obtaining additional corroborative evidence as required. There are inherent limitations in the audit procedures described above. We are less likely to become aware of instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations that are not closely related to events 3nd transartions reflected in the financial statements. Also, the risk of not detecting a material misstatement due to fraud 15 higher than the risk of not detecting one resLJlting from error, as fraud May involve deliberate concealment by, for example. forgery or intentional misrepresentations, or through collusion. Use of our reFQrt This report is made solely to the charitable company's members, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the charitable company's members those matters which we are required to st3te to them in an auditor's report and for no other purpose.

Goln8 concern The financial statements are drawn up on the going concern basis which assumes th3t English National Ballet will continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future and for a period not less than twelve months from the date of approval of these financial statements. The Charity SLJbstantially relies on funding through grants from Arts Council England for its current and future commitments and operates on the basis that cumulatively, over the period of the funding cycle Icurrently April 2018 to March 2022 but extended to March 20231 revenue will at least match expenditure. Applications for the new Arts Council England funding round start in April 2022. In lune 2017, Arts Council England confirmed stand-still Nation31 Portfolio Organisation funding for English National Ballet for the four-yearfunding cycle beginning April 2018 and ending M3rch 2022, ENB'S 3pplication for 22123 lan extension year due to Covidl was submitted in September 2021 and confirm2tion of funding will be announced by Arts Council England by the end of December 2021. The Trustees have undertaken financial modelling, budgeting and cashflow forecastin8 to NAarch 2023 which considers the potential impact of Covid mitigations returning, especially in relation to box office ncome over the Christmas 2021 period, and potentially the longer term impact of Covid on other revenue streams such as fundraising and tradin& Projertions also consider the imp3Ct of worst-case outcomes in relation to VAT submissions in progress with HMRC. Based on these projections and continuing with a flexible approach to reduce financial risk should it be required, supported by the GovernmenVs13test round of the Culture Recovery Fund and with the back-up of a credit facility, ENB'S Board of Trustees expects to meet its commitments for at le3St 12 months beyond Ihe date of slgning these accounts. Conseouently, ENB'S Trustees are content to continue to adopt the gong concern basis of accounting for the Grou p. At the same time, all avenues to secure additional financial support will be pursued to ensure ENB'S long-term financial sust2inability. 1321

CONTINGENT ASSEfs AND LIABILETIES In October 2020, HTkl RC advised ENB of its view that a capita1 transattion that took place in January 2019 which ENB treated as VATexempt following advance disclosure to HMRC In September 2018, should have been subject to 20% VAT and assessed for £2,400,000 of VAT. HMRC confirmed its decision in November 2021. Having taken professional advice, ENB does not agree with this treatment based on the facts and 3pplication of the relev2nt statutès and is 3ppealing the decision. At rhe date of approval of these fin3nci31 statements, trustees believe the likelihood of a liability is possible, but not probable and it is therefore reported as a contingent liability. In June 2018, EN8 submitted a four-yÈ3r retrospective claim for overpaid VAT on the basis that ENB was culturally exempt when it arted as princip35 in grantin8 admissions to performances and VAT had been incorrectly over declared on ticket Sales. Of the retrospective claim, £655.000 was refunded by HMRC in June 2020 on a 'without prejudice, basis. An additional £355,000 of VAT was claimed on the basis that a use-based 'standard method override, calculation provides a more accurate reflection of how overhead VAT was used by EN B in making its taxab5e supplies. These claims rna1n under review by HMRC and are therefore reported as a contingent asset. 22.
