The British Charolais Cattle Society THE BRITISH CHAROLAIS CATfLE KIETy LIMITED REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES for tbe year eDded 31 Detember 21122 Reserves poliry The trustees have examtned the ¢harity'$ requiTements for reserves in the light of the main risks io the organisation and have agreed that the pwious policy of building up a substsntia] rc5crve when the agriculnjral iDdusty, and in particular the beef industry, were enjoying better limes. is a stslid policyty w the Society through tim¢s of adversity. The twst¢es have estsblished the level of reserves (thai is th¢)sc funds that are freely available) thai the ¢hariry ought io hav¢ and hav¢ also cnSIdered the level of Jditional short-ttnn reserves that will also be needed to Sustsin operniions and subsidise ihe members should there be epidemics. pandernics or other problem$ which diTe¢ily or indirectly affeci agriculture and therefore re5trictin8 the YAKiethe5 ability to generate income. The rtservts have hlso acted as a buffer & times where th¢ membership have ten facing incrIng ¢osts in the industy and will continue to &> so in the comin8 years. Political and economic uncertainty including changes in licIes. may well result in a reduchon of income from the ¢harity's charitable a¢tivities. Currently ihe chariry has approximately £2.9m in reserves which is readily accc5sible. The remaining £386k is invested in •lmini51Mive propeny, plant al machinery a[ intangible &ssets. We b¢lieve thai it is pntdeni to hold reserves ¢quivalent to approxirnly 24 months expenditure. In calculating reserve5. we have ex¢lud¢d from iolal fut)ds tA)th the tangible and intangible assets rotslling £386k which are in fjxed assets. Therefo the aciual level of r¢s¢rwes readily available for day to day expenditure amounts to approxirnately £2.9m, and although this is in ex¢¢ss of the 24 months ¢xp¢ndiNre. the mlet5 are aware of a possible economic slow down which may affe¢t the l¢v¢l of res¢ryes and the income from the inveslment portfolio. This. together with an increase in administTion expendiiwe, and an inueax in bre¢d improvement and breed pmmotional aclivitie4 will lead to redu¢¢ion in th¢ l¢vel of reserves. Pl•tt$ for th¢ future Future developments in the r¢gistr*iOn and genetic improvement of Charolais cattle are continually being reviewed.

The British Charolais Cattle Society CHAIRMAN'S REPORT As my second and fjnal year &$ Chairnan thaws to a close, I would fLrsily like to say it ha5 been an honour and privilege to have had the chatKe to be Chairman of this truly remarkable cattle society. During my last V151t to Ston¢leigh. L w&s studying the hO[urS tK>ard and was in awe of pr¢vious names on there. so rnany of whom have shaped th¢ breed to where Èt is today and to have my name alongsid¢ them is truly hurnblin8. As I write this repx)rt lambing is n¢aAy finish and calving is 213 through but there is no $18n of thiing cattl¢ out io gr&ss as it's one of the I¢St springs l ¢an remember. The past year has seen some real exts¢mes in farn)ing, some OC those we hope never se¢ again. With fertil]s at an ail-time r¢¢ord price lasi summer and feed barley at £31K)It coupled with sorne re¢ord.br¢aking hot t¢rnperature5 in some areas of over 40°C ¢ombin¢d with a decline in su¢kl¢r COW5 from uplarbd faTm5 Lt didn't lend itself to an easy 12months for farmer5 to budg¢t or plan for. Since the n¢w y¢ar thing5 are definitely looking a lot brighier for livestock farn)er5 with fertilizer b*k £35011 from tsst spring. feed barley is slowly dropping and the price of b¢¢f tOLKhhng the £51kg DW. Society sale5 up and th)wn the county over the past 12 months have been ¢xceptÈonal with an incr¢ase of 23% more bulls sold through society sales than the year previous. Thi5 j5 great new5 for the breed and our membeTS, and it clearly shows the high demand and premium that Charolais sired suckled calve5 arc c¢jMmad1Trg in the siore market is filtering back through to bull sales. What is even more pleasing al1 thc 23% rise in bull 5ale5 15 that in a dirnirlishing rnarket place and the huge number of suckler eows going off from upland fa5 as previ$1Y mentioned. the breed is clearly not only holding its own in the market place but. making huge inroads to take cu5tom¢r5 away from other breeds by proving to the commercial farnier how a Charolais bull can 8lVt them thc best return on their investment and also making their business more sustainable for ytar5 to come. However, we rnt also be reajistic in that, if therc 15 a shrinking markct for bulls and even if we keep gaining a larger market share, there is urhdoubtsbly 80in8 ty be a declining nurnber of ptyjigree ¢alves being rtgist¢rnl and therefore a le55cnin8 of our rntmbership. The figures for the past 5 years are: Members 1524 1416 1349 1323 1298 1292 Registrntions 5822 5799 6199 5905 5463 2392 (figwes 17.05.2023) 2018 2019 2020 2021 2022 2023 These figures arc quite stark. and ihe court¢il of management are very awar¢ that if these figur¢5 continue declining in this manner the society is goir)g io have to I)k long and hard ar how it can be sustainable for its members for years to comc. This is mainly why we 0k the de¢ision io mak¢ th¢ role of CEO redundant within the society. The Couneil are now in a pts51tion to look for a new employe¢ the fa¢e of the breed who is the first point of contact for the rnembership. present at shows and sales and able io deal with members queries. Additionally. the incumbent will be t&%ked with as51Sting the Coun¢il of Management and office team with tsking a number of promotional and breed development matteTS fon¥ard ai a ¢osi that is jusiifiabl¢ to the wciety. The Council of Management have made Dwo big de¢rsion$ over the pasi year, firstly io upd¢ and rn¢yiernis¢ the logo. We need a logo that is digitally friendly and WOTks at any dimensiort from fingernail size w a large banner or poster. Something thai works in a positive use (white background) and a revetsa] use (dark background) and something that looks gth)d on promotional merchandise and 15 simple with clean lines. We choose to go down the road of evolution noi revolution. l understtnd this isn't everyone'5 cup of tea. but as f8nneTS we don't like change. We believ¢ this delivers all thes¢ ihings and hope given time many of you will think the same. Secondly. we chose to be the breed in ihe UK io laun¢h ILRonlin< this is going to bring hug¢ knefits to our rnembership with infonnali¢)n being live and in rtal time. Some of the Vang¢S are= -Re8iSter anima]s and immcdiately stt them on the database -view peThding animals and see why they are pending i.e.. awaiting DNA etc. -Allow memb¢rs to transfer animals to other members. -users can download pedigrte certifi¢aies.

The British Charolais Cattle Society I believe this 15 a vwy ¢x¢iting launch and puts us one step ahead of other brteds. We have also been able to have a hand in the development of the plarfomi to the benefit of the Charolais brerf Rusrni desuves a loi of credit for creatin8 and shaping ihi5. The younger generation is our and with(1 the youth we dtsn'l have a brted. The society h&s been very forNnate to bt able to se¢ure a 3-year parthership wilh the livesiock fttd company Harbro to help to 8ain a wide exwsure of our breed to the younger genernlion to help edu¢aie artd develop them. The tsperience of the Harbro team will be invaluable to help drive the Charolw5 youth forward. l atn very excited to see where this parthership can tske the breed. All in all, the society and the brttd have a lot to be p)sitivt abouL I beli¢v¢ we need to work more closely with our ¢ommercial cu5tomtr5 as withoui them we don'l ha bull sales. Also ry to develop a Closer Tclatiorlship with retailers and wholesalers to develop Chamlais as a brand, if we Can gain the key and facwal da io bk up the benefi¢s, we know thc Charolais Can brirtg to the focM4 ¢haith a viable, cath)n friendly. healthy pr¢mium proieio sour¢e, I believe this ith turn will hclp OUT members to have an irt¢reased market share for years to come. Where possible we sknuld to collaborate alongside h¢r Ixeed 5LKietie5. if we ¢an wotk closer with ea¢h other to ty and save on costs w th¢ same time &$ promoting the beef lTrdty as a whok, this should be beneficial to everyone. I would like to draw my final Chairm'S report to a close by thanking a few people who have helped not only my$¢lf bui the sttiety over the ptst yetr. Ru5mi for doing a sterling job In keepLII8 the offi¢¢ ru[18 so smrKJthly alongside depury office manager Rebecca wh is ably as5151¢d by Fiorx4 Mandy, Natasha & Charlotte, the work and commilrnent thry all sknw should be highly ¢omm¢nded.

Our hO[rnry Treasurer Graham Robinson. the dedi110, and hours that Graham puts into BCCS interests [5 nothing short of excep¢iona]. I beli¢v¢ if the membetship had any idea about the time given up to ihe breed by Graham rnostly to the dctrirnent of his owth busirtess, members would be skncked.

The British Charolais Cattle Society TREASURER'S REPORT In my 2021 report I said thai if the BCCS was able to (P) covid) to ythIng like TrOnn then the finaneial results of 2020 and 2021 would not be seen again. This has proved to be the Case. The balance sheet saw a decrease to £3.168.546 from £3.445.864. During the yew nothing was drnwl (knwn from the investment rA)rtfolio. The loss on the day-itrday artivities reduced to a little under £lk from a £72k surplus. During 2022 the BCCS hosted the World Chartslais consrcss. the Council of Mana8cmentde¢ided to finoncially supportthe host farnis. Totsl cost of the coThvenlion to the BCCS w&$ £54,135. Sponsorship of £18.000 was nised giving a n¢t ¢osi to th¢ BCCS of £36,135. Publi¢ity ¢xp¢t)ses for the year were considerably higher than in the previous ycar at £99.232 ¢ompar¢d to £39.683 thi$ is du¢ to th¢ so¢iety again bein8 able to attend shows etc and promo Charolais cattle. During 2022 the GB suckler herd continued its long-estsblished trcnd and corttractl by approaching 10%. 200,000 mws were slaughtered in October to December 2022 compared with I.0¢NI Jn the same period in 2021. While li is right that the BCCS is continually looking at incrt45ing rnarkct Share, as I sthted in my ffporr on th¢ 2018 results, we are fJghtin8 for a bigger share of a smaller rnarket. Th¢ society must be realistic about the future and difficultdeci5ions may need to be made. Inl]ationary pressure has been significant during the past year. Whilst the exwts tell us that this wtll be short iemi history shows that once in place inflation often proves ditTicult to reduce. TÉme will tell. 21122 FiThn¢i*ls At the end of the year BCCS fimd5 stood at £3.168.546. (2021- £3,445,864) The total income for 2022 increased from £657.614 10 £712.624.
