Flnanclal Revlew Statement of Comprehenslve Income Overall income increased this year by 21 Q/0. The variance is due to 8 combination of factors, including a 70/0 rent increase, as well as increases in our Service Charges and the completion of our new development of 27 units at Northfield, Mary Court. Operating costs increased by 120A compared to the previous year. This was mainly due to a combination of increased maintenance and service chargeable costs within the housing schemes, with added inflationary costs due to the general rise in prices, alongside additional selllemenl and recruitment costs due to changes within the organisation. Also, after retaining Billy Bears Nursery and initially receiving an Inadequate Ofsted report, a lot of work was done lo improve this section, resulting in a Good rating al the follow up inspection. The year saw the completion of our new development in Northfield, Mary Court. This includes 27 new units and was opened in January 2024. The increased revenue from this development will start to be fully realised during the next financial year. The Youth and Communities section of the organisation have all been facing financial challenges through the year, which saw some operational changes implemented towards the end of the year. This should bring a turnaround in the performance for this area. Included in this is a partnership which has coMMend with 2MuchPassion.

These activities have come under increasing pressure through the combination of funding cuts, the social housing rent reduction policy and the inevitable rise in homelessness and rough sleeping. This means OLJr resources need to be managed efficiently so we can support as many people as possible. Our annual budget planning process includes scrutiny of each service, staffing complement and associated costs to ensure that our resources are focused on delivering the highest quality of services to our residents that we can realistically afford. The same level of scrutiny is applied for our other services.. nursery provision, conferencing and our youth work. Each area is monitored regularly at subcommittee level in respect of social and financial outcomes lo ensure that we continue to deliver the highest quality can within the resources available. In addition, where funding is received from grant giving bodies le.g. the Youth Investment Fund) our spending pl8ns are subject lo external scrutiny to ensure that they deliver value for money. We are reporting on the Regulator of Social Housing IRSHI Value for Money standard and accompanying code of practice. The standard requires us to publish perfomance against our own v81ue for money targets and against a series of common metrics with which to measure economy, efficiency and effectiveness. The purpose of the Value for Money approach is lo.. Continue to drive improvements in VFM within the social housing sector Ensure a strategic approach lo delivering VFM is embedded within the business Encourage investing in existing homes and new housing supply Enhance the consistency, comparability and transparency of VFM reporting.

Our assessment of viability therefore continues lo align with a 5-year outlook. The Board has assessed the organisalions viability and have reasonable expectation of being able to continue the operation for the foreseeable future. The Board's focus following Covid-19 is lo place a stronger emphasis on liquidity and solvency and ensuring that the Association has adequate resources to ¢onlinue in operation, meet it liabilities as they fall due, and relain sufficient available cash across all two years wilhoul breaching any loan covenant. The board have considered the number of challenges effected the housing sector and the contributing factors starting with Covid-19 pandemic, the war in Ukraine with rising energy prices and supply chain disruptions coupled with an increase in inflation and interest rates. These challenges are having a significant Impact on our residents, many of whom are struggling with necessities. We are taking a number of steps to address these challenges. Regular stress testing is perfomed on the Association and different scenarios and sensitivities have been reviewed on the Association's projected cashflow position and financial eovenanl. We also Considered increase in rent arrears and bad debt. Should these occur, we have identified the limit for financial viability. We are also working with the government to secure funding to support residents and reducing the essential development work and capital repairs. The Board are satisfied the business model and str8tegy is adaptsble with minimum risk on liquidity and solvency. We have taken a series of steps lo strengthen the Association's liquidity and increase the resilience of the balance sheet. We are also looking lo the future. The provision of social housing has vital part to play in the government's response lo this crisis and they have already announced significant sums of money lo help boost Sla1 housing supply and end rough sleeping for good. The delivery of more social housing is one of the key strategic objectives in YMCA Heart of England's new strategic plan and we are already in discussions with local councils in our area of benefit with a view lo securing some of the recently annoUnd government money for investment in social housing. The Board of Directors has recognised the immense potential and importanTr of supporting young people in the wider community. We firmly believe that by empowering and nurturing the next generation, we can create a positive impact and shape a brighter future. To achieve this, we are committed and will be investing in Youth next year.

The Iruslees have agreed that managed operating cash should exceed a minimum of three months lo six months annualised forecast cash outflow. Financial performance and forecast information is monitored monthly lo assess the cash requirements of the Charity. The reserve policy is considered and monitored every quarter.

Level of funding for unexpected opportunities As we are approaching the remainder of the year with caution and with cost of living issues remaining, as well as interest rale movement uncertainty, our target has been met but with room for improvement.

The Iruslees adopt the National Housing Federation's INHFI 2020 code of governance lo measure good governance practices as well as the Charity Governance Code. Dele ation and control The board regularly reviews which mallers are reserved lo the board and which can be delegated. It collectively exercises the powers of delegation lo senior managers, oommillees or individual Iruslees, stsff or volunteers. The board has not recently reviewed its delegated powers bul intends lo do so in the forthcoming year and is in the process of pulling together a scheme of delegation. The board regularly considers information from other similar organisalions to compare or benchmark the organisation's performance. At the moment salaries are the only area where we benchmark. (We co-ordinate production of a biennial YMCA salary survey.) We are currendy working with YMCA colleagues across the region to produce comparative data for operational perf0mlan. Activel mana risks The board retains overall responsibility for risk management and discusses and decides the level of risk il is prepared lo accept for specific and combined risks. The board regularly reviews the charity's specific significant risks and the cumulative effect of these risks. 11 makes plans lo mitigat8 and manage these risks appropriately. The charity considers using a Govemanc8 Committee lo lead the board appointment process and to make recommendations lo the board. This will include a policy for training and inducting new trustees. The board reviews its own performance and that of individual trustees, including the chair. Such evaluation typically considers the board's balance of skills, experien and knowledge, its diversity in the widest sense, how the board works together and other factors relevant lo its effectiveness. The board reviews its collective effectiveness al an annual board away day. This discipline has continued throughout the current pandemic. However, we have not previously reviewed the performance of Iruslees on an individual basis, this has been introduced through a robust skills and competency matrix and will be reviewed by trustees in the current financial year. Notwithstanding this, the Association considers itself to have high standards of governance. The policies of the Charity are determined by the Board of Trustees, which meets bi-monthly. The Charity's operations are managed by the Chief Executive, who reports to the Board of Trustees. The Charity has a system of internal controls designed to provide reasonable, but not absolute, assurance against material misstatement or loss due lo fraud or error. The system includes corporate controls over income and budget comparison, proper supervision and delegation including operational and financial review procedures, limilalion on the spending power of individuals and control over the Charity s assets. The internal controls are subject to regular review and are updated lo take account of organisational and operational changes. There are four sub-committees that meet bi-monthly on matters of housing, finance, development and social enterprise. A review of governance structures was undertaken in the year under review. This has already resulted in improved perfomiance reporting to trustees through the Association's operational committees. In the current year it will also lead to the overhauling of the Key Performance Indicators against which officers, perfomance is assessed. 14

ODFDC76F-F71842E8-A80fk3A379961DEB4 HEART OF ENGLAND YOUNG MEN'S CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION Independent Auditor's Report to the Members of Heart of England Young Men's Christian Association (continued) Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial ststements as a whole are free from materi81 misstalemenl, whether due to fraud or error, and lo issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is 8 high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAS IUKI will always delecl a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements arise from fraud or errorand are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected lo influence the economic decisions of users tsken on the basis of these financial stslements. Irregularities, including fraud, are instsnces 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 specific procedures for this engagement and the extent lo which these are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below. Our assessment focussed on key laws and regulations the Association has lo comply with and areas of the financial statements we assessed as being more su$ptib1e lo misstslemenl. These key laws and regulations included but were not limited to compliance with the Housing and Regeneration Act 2008 and the Accounting Direction for private registered providers of social housing in England 2022, Charities (Protection and Social Investment) A¢t 2016, Companies Act 2006, Charities Act 2011, taxation legislation, data prote¢tion, anli-bribery and employment legislation. We are not responsible for preventing irregularities, including fraud. Our approach to detecting irregularities, including fraud, included, bul was not limited to, the following.. obtaining an understanding of the legal and regulatory framework applicable to the Association and how the association is complying with that framework, including agreement of financial statement disclosures lo underlying documentation and other evidence,. obtaining an understanding of the Association's control environment and how the Association has applied relevant control produre$, through discussions with Trustees and olher management and by perfomiing walklhrough lesling over key areas., obtaining an understanding of the Association's risk assessment process, including the risk of fraud., reviewing meeting minutes of those charged with governance throughout the year., an perfomiing audit lesling to address the risk of management override of controls, including lesling journal entries and other adjustments for appropriateness, evaluating the business rationale of significant transactions outside the normal course of business and reviewing accounting eslimales for bias. Whilst considering how our audit work addressed the detection of irregularities, we also considered the likelihood of detection of fraud based on our approach. Irregularities arising from fraud are inherently more difficult to delecl than those arising from error. Because of the inherent limitations of an audit, there is a risk that we will not delect all irregularities, including those leading lo a material misslalemenl in the financial ststemenls or non-compliance with regulation. This risk increases the more that compliance with a law or regulation is removed from the events and transactions reflected in the financial ststements, as we will be less likely lo become aware of instances of non-compliance. The risk is also greater regarding irregularities occurring dLJe lo fraud rather than error, as fraud involves intentional concealment, forgery, collusion, omission or misrepresentation. A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council's website at= www.frc.org.uklauditorsresponsibililies. This description forms part of our auditor's report. 19

Defined Benefit Plan Heart of England YMCA participated in a mulli-employer defined benefit pension plan for employees of YMCAS in England, Scotland and Wales, which was closed to new members and accruals on 30 April 2007. Due to insufficient information, the plan's actuary has advised that it is not possible lo separately identify the assets and liabilities relating lo Heart of England YMCA. As described in note 17, Heart of England YMCA has a conlraclual obligation lo make pension deficit payments of £37,085 per annum over the period lo April 2027 {2023.' £42,830 pa to April 20291, accordingly this is shown as a liability in these acwunts. In addition, Heart of England YMCA is required to contribute £11,82012023'. £11,596) to the operating expenses of the Pension Plan and these costs are charged as paid. Financial Assets Debtors Debtors which are re1vable within one year and which do not constitute a financing transaction are initially measured at the transaction price. Trade debtors are subsequently measured al amortised cost. being the transaction price less any amounts setded and any impairment losses. Where the arrangement with a trade debtor constitutes a financing transaction, the debtor is initially and subsequently measured at the present value of futLJre payments discoLJnted at a market rate of interest for a similar debt instrument. A provision for impaimenl of debtors is established when there is objective evidence that the amounts due will not be collected according lo 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 recognised immediately in income or expenditure. 27

Where the arrangement with a trade creditor constitutes a financing Iransaclion, the creditor is initially and subsequently measured at the present value of future payTnenls discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar instrument. Borrowings Borrowings are initially recognised at the transaction price, including transaction costs, and subsequently measured al amortised cost using the effective interest method. Interest expense is recognised on the basis of the effective interest method and is included in interest payable and other similar charges. Provlslons The Association recognises provisions where il has an obligation at the reporting dale as a result of a past event, which il is probable will result in the transfer of economic benefits and that obligation can be eslimaled reliably. Provisions are measured al the best estimate of the amounts reqUId lo 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 al the pre-tax discount rale that reflects the risks specific lo the liability. The unwinding of the discount is recognised within interest payable and similar charges. Intangible Fixed Assets Intangible fixed assets are staled al cost less accumulated amortisation. Intangible assets acquired on business combinations are capilalised separately from goodwill if the fair value can be measured reliably on initial recognition. Provision is made for any impairment. Depreciation is provided evenly on the wsl of intangible fixed assets lo write them down lo their estimated residual values over their expected useful lives. The principal period used for intangible assets is five years. Tangible Fixed Assets- Housing Properties Housing properties are properties for the provision of social housing and are principally properties available for rent. Completed housing properties are slated al cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. Cost includes the cost of acquiring land and buildings, and expenditure incurred during the development period. Only the direct overhead costs inclLJding interest associated with new developments or improvements are capilalised. Housing properties are transferred al cost lo completed properties when they are ready for letting. Works lo existing properties which replace a component that has been treated sepaffitely for depreciation purposes, along wlh those works that enhance the economic benefits of the asset, are capilalised as improvements. Such enhancements can occur if improvements result in either.. An increase in rental income-, A material reduction in future maintenance costs., A significant extension lo the life of the property. 28

The Association separately identifies the major components of ils housing properties and charges depreciation so as lo write down the cost of each component lo its estimated residual value, on a slraight-line basis over its estimated useful economic life. The Association depreciates the major components of its housing properties based on the following.. Building Components Years Building Components Years Structure 501100 Central Heating 30 Windows 30 Boilers 15 Kitchen 20 Roof 60 Bathroom 30 Environmental Worf(s 30 Electrical and Mechani¢al 10140 Impairments of Fixed Assets An assessment is made al each reporting dale of whether there are indications that a fixed asset lincluding housing properties) may be impaired or that an impairment loss previously recognised has fully or partially reversed. If such indications exist. the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated. Shortfalls between the carrying value of fixed assets and their recoverable amounts, being the higher of fair value less costs lo sell and value-in-use of the asset based on its service polenlial, are recognised as impairment losses in income and expenditure. Recognised impairment losses are reversed rf, and only if, the reasons for the impairment loss have ceased to apply. Reversals of impairment losses are recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income. On reversal of an impaimient loss, the depreciation or amortisation is adjusted lo allocate the asset's revised carrying amount (less any residual value) over its remaining useful life. other Tangible Fixed Assets Other tangible fixed assets are initially measured al cost, net of depreciation and any impairment losses. DepCIall0n is provided on all tangible fixed assets, other than freehold18nd and investment properties, at rates calculated lo write off the cost or valuation of each asset lo its estimaled residual value on a slraight-line basis over its expected useful life, as follows.. Freehold Premises ICT Hardware Fixtures & Fittings 50 10 Residual value is calculated on prices prevailing al the reporting date, after estimated costs of disposal, for the asset as if it were at the age and in the condition expected al the end of its useful life. 29

Designated Reserve These funds are those unrestricted funds which have been set aside by trustees for an essential spend or future purpose. These funds form part of unrestricted Income and Expenditure reserve. Generally, these funds cover the replacing or improvement of the charity's assets. Restricted Reserve Reslricled Reserves are tied lo a particular purpose. These funds are specified by a third party and impose terms and conditions stipulating the funding must be spent on a particular purpose. Revaluation Re$grv9 A revaluation reserve is a noncash reserve and created to reflect the true value of the asset representing the deemed cost of housing properties on transition to FRS102. Critical areas of judgement and accounting estimates In preparing these financial statements, the keyjudgemenls have been made in respect of the following= Pension Liability The critical underlying assumptions in relation lo the estimate of the pension defined benefit scheme obligation such as rates of inflation, mortality, discount rale and salary increases. These assumptions have the ability to influence the value of the liability. These assumptions are based on the actuarial advice. Bad Debt Provision Assumptions between budgetsry and debt provisions are assumed. These assumptions include eslimalion of uncertainty against future recognition of certain accounts receivable as being uncollected. Leases In categorising leases as finan leases or operating leases, management makes judgements as to whether significant risks and rewards of ownership have transferred to the Heart of England YMCA. Useful lives of depreciable assets Management reviews ils estimate of the useful lives of depreciable assets at each reporting dale, based on the expected utility of the assets. Uncertainties in these estimates relate to technological obsolescence that may change the utility of rtain software and IT equipment and changes to decent homes standards which may require more frequent replacement of key ¢omponenls. 30

Pension obligations Heart of England YMCA participated in a contributory pension plan providing defined benefits based on final pensionable pay for employees of YMCAS in England, Scotland and Wales. The assets of the YMCA Pension Plan are held separately from those of Heart of England YMCA and at the year end these were invested in the Mercer Dynamic De-risking Solution, 650/0 matching portfolio and 350/0 in the growth portfolio and Schroder (property units only). The most recent completed three year valuation was as at 1 May 2023. The assumptions used which have the most significant effect on the results of the valuation are those relating to the assumed rates of return on assets of 4.56Q/., the increase in pensions in payment of 3.180/. (for RPI capped at 50/. p.a.), and the average life expectancy from normal retirement age lof 651 for a current male pensioner of 21.5 years, female 24.0 years. and 23.1 years for a male pensioner, female 25.7 years, retiring in 20 years, lime. The result of the valuation showed that the actuarial value of the assets was £103.1 m, which represented 92Q/ts of the benefits that had accrued lo members. The Pension Plan was closed lo new members and future Servi accrual with effect from 30 April 2007. With the removal of the salary linkage for benefits all employed deferred members became deferred members as from 1 May 2011. 41
