REVIEW OF ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE FOR THE YEAR

Operational Performance of the School

In the academic year 2021-22 Mount Kelly had a total of 650 pupils on-roll, maintaining an increase of over 8% on the previous year. There are currently 636 pupils on roll for the 2022-23 year, cementing our strategic objective plan to optimise our facilities and pupils across both sites.

Mount Kelly has a philosophy that is committed to an all-round education, and the provision of a wide range of extra-curricular opportunity enables our pupils to explore, grow and develop as well-rounded individuals.

A Level results were again strong, 28% of examination papers taken were awarded an A, 51% were graded A-A and 68% A*-B, all of which are well above the national average. 77% of pupils secured their places at their first choice of university, including 43% moving on to Russell Group universities as well as impressive institutions overseas.

THE MOUNT KELLY FOUNDATION

TRUSTEE¶S REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2022

There was another outstanding set of GCSE results this year. 53% of all grades awarded were 9-7, almost twice the national figure, and 97% of all examinations taken were awarded 9-4. 34% of Mount Kelly pupils were awarded grades 9-8.

There was also success at the Prep, with pupils winning places and scholarships not only at the College, but also at other well know HMC schools.

2021-22 was the first full season followLQJ�WKH�SDQGHPLF�DQG�KDV�EHHQ�0RXQW�.HOO\�6ZLPPLQJ¶V�PRVW� successful season to date. For the first time Mount Kelly finished as a Top Club at the British Summer Championships held in July and retained the National Arena League title that was first won in 2020. There has been strong representation on the junior and senior international stage.

102 Mount Kelly swimmers also qualified for the 2022 British and Home Nation Summer Nationals. Other notable successes include:

The School is also making significant progress across a wider range of sporting commitment. The games programme has grown, with an impressive range of sporting options and more fixtures across the range enabling more pupils to represent the School.

2021-22 saw the continued success of the Girls¶ Performance Football Programme in partnership with Chelsea FC Foundation. The team won the Independent Schools Football Association National Girls U18 Seven-a-Side Tournament, with 15 schools competing at Charterhouse School. The final was of an extremely high standard.

Our youngest sportsmen and women receive much improved and regular quality coaching and the overall quality of the provision at the Prep has strengthened markedly, with again a growth in the quantity and quality of fixtures.

Music continues to be a strength with pupils, ensembles and choirs performing to an executional standard. The senior choir is particularly talented and received national recognition and our pupils continue to perform in many local events. Associated Board music exam uptake remains strong with considerable success at every level. The School maintains a very lively programme of informal concerts.

The School also runs a programme of public concerts, welcoming to the School professional soloists and ensembles of the highest calibre, performing to our own pupils and to the wider community. This programme has started to return to the school following the pandemic.

Pupils in Years 6, 7 and 8 have been most fully engaged in the Learning Outside the Classroom programme, spending time during the summer term learning in the natural environment, and the addition of sail training on Olga , a Plymouth based cutter, has added an extra dimension to our offering. We maintain a high profile in the Ten Tors Challenge and the Devizes to Westminster International Canoe Race, and a lively involvement in Duke of Edinburgh Gold Awards.

In Performing Arts, a significant number of pupils this year once again took LAMDA examinations with Distinction passes at Grade 8. Having been postponed by covid, the main College drama production of the

year, Blue Stockings , was brought to the stage in April and The Merchant of Venice was performed at Tavistock Guildhall as the centerpiece of our Shakespeare Festival.

The Trustee would like to thank all involved with the Foundation for their continued hard work and ongoing success.

Future Developments

The next five years will see the continued implementation of the Strategic Plan. The strategy gives clear direction to the Charity and to continue to build on the quality of the educational experience at Mount Kelly and within the broader strategic imperative of ensuring commercial sustainability.

Financial Review

The Statement of Financial Activities for the year is set out on page 18 of the financial statements. Incoming resources were £11,368,780 (2021: £10,019,121). The primary source of income in the year was the receipt of school fees.

The total net movement in funds for the year was a surplus of £693,714 (2021: surplus of £494,788). The total net movement of unrestricted funds was £729,421 (2021: surplus of £134,339). The total net movement of restricted funds was £42,770 deficit after £44,235 revaluation losses on investments (2021: £319,630 after £101,882 revaluation gains on investments). The total net movement of endowment funds was £7,063 after revaluation losses on investments of £20,870 (2021: surplus of £40,819 after revaluation gains of £66,805). Note 6 details the total expenditure on the various elements of the FoundationV¶�FKDULWDEOH�DFWLYLWLHV��'HWDLOV�RI� the net movement in restricted funds are given in note 16.

Going Concern

The Trustee has assessed the impact of the current energy crisis as well as predicted interest rate rises and what impact it will have on the ongoing operations of the charity. The School has continued to provide teaching throughout the year and pupil recruitment remains strong for the academic year ahead.

The Trustee has reviewed the current position and does not anticipate any material changes to the operations of the School. In light of this, the Trustee is confident that the Charity has adequate resources in place and consider it appropriate for the financial statements to be prepared on a going concern basis.

Reserves Policy

The reserves policy of the Foundation is WR�PDLQWDLQ�IUHH�UHVHUYHV�HTXDO�WR�DSSUR[LPDWHO\�RQH�IXOO�WHUP¶V� expenditure. Use of reserves should always be planned and approved in advance by the Trustee and should be accompanied by a clear business case, articulating, as far as possible, how the funds are intended to be used. The policy is reviewed annually.

At the year end, total unrestricted reserves held by the Foundation amounted to £14,797,169 (2021: £14,067,748). The restricted reserves held by the Foundation were £2,641,609 (2021: £2,684,379). The endowment reserves held by the Foundation were £623,827 (2021: £616,764).

Risk Management

The Trustee has assessed the major risks to which the Charity is exposed as including, failure to meet legal requirements, negative publicity, too few sources of income, exposure to fraud and not having adequate insurance cover.

The Trustee has reviewed these areas of potential risk and concluded that, operationally, these risks are significantly mitigated; record keeping is performed by the Mount Kelly Foundation which has adequate internal controls, insurance cover is reviewed every year and a lawyer is on hand when needed. The exposure to a loss of income was considered when the investments and reserves policies were agreed.

TRUSTEE¶S REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2022

Investment Policy and Objectives

The Trustee is responsible for the oversight of the implementation of the investment policy and monitoring the performance of investments. The Board seeks professional advice when required. The Board gives guidance as to the balance required between income and capital growth, risk parameters and the investment strategy having due regard to the law and regulations on the investment of charitable assets.

The investment policy of the Foundation is to generate a positive financial return on funds over a medium to long term period through a balanced portfolio with a low risk profile and low capital volatility.

The Trustee is responsible for preparing the Trustee report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

In preparing these financial statements, the Trustee is required to:

The Trustee is responsible for keeping proper accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the Charity and the Group's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the Group and enable it to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Charity (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 and the provisions of the Trust Deed. It is also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the Charity and the Group and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF THE MOUNT KELLY FOUNDATION

OPINION

We have audited the financial statements of The Mount Kelly Foundation (the 'parent charity') and its subsidiaries (the 'group') for the year ended 31 August 2022 which comprise the Consolidated statement of financial activities, the Consolidated statement of financial position, the Charity statement of financial position, the Consolidated statement of cash flows and the related notes, including a summary of 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 Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

In our opinion the financial statements:

BASIS FOR OPINION

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the United Kingdom, including the Financial Reporting Council's Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

CONCLUSIONS RELATING TO GOING CONCERN

In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the Trustee's use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.

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 Group's or the parent charity's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.

Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the Trustee with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.

OTHER INFORMATION

The other information comprises the information included in the Annual report other than the financial statements and our Auditors' report thereon. The Trustee is 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 material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this 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 this regard.

Page 14

THE MOUNT KELLY FOUNDATION

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF THE MOUNT KELLY FOUNDATION (CONTINUED)

MATTERS ON WHICH WE ARE REQUIRED TO REPORT BY EXCEPTION

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters where the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:

Responsibilities of the trustee

As explained more fully in the Trustee's responsibilities statement, the Trustee is responsible for the preparation of the financial statements which give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the Trustee determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, the Trustee is responsible for assessing the Group's and the parent 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 unless the Trustee either intends to liquidate the Group or the parent charity or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Page 15

THE MOUNT KELLY FOUNDATION

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF THE MOUNT KELLY FOUNDATION (CONTINUED)

AUDITORS' RESPONSIBILITIES FOR THE AUDIT OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

We have been appointed as auditor under section 151 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 Auditors' 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 (UK) 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:

In identifying and assessing risks of material misstatement in respect of irregularies, including fraud and noncompliance with laws and regulations, we considered the following:

As a result of these procedures, we considered the opportunities and incentives that may exist within the organisation for fraud, which included incorrect recognition of revenue, management override of controls using manual journal entries, purchase ledger and payroll, and identified the greatest potential for fraud as incorrect recognition of revenue and management override using manual journal entries

In common with all audits under ISAs (UK), we are also required to perform specific procedures to respond to the risk of management override. We also obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory frameworks that the Group operates in, focusing on provisions of those laws and regulations that had a direct effect on the determination of material amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The key laws and regulations we considered in this context included the Companies Act, the Charities SORP and the Charities Act.

In addition, we considered provisions of other laws and regulations that do not have a direct effect on the financial statements but compliance with which may be fundamental to the Group’s ability to operate or to avoid a material penalty. These included safeguarding regulations, data protection regulations, occupational health and safety regulations, education and inspections legislation, and employment legislation. Our procedures to respond to risks identified included the following:

Page 16

THE MOUNT KELLY FOUNDATION

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF THE MOUNT KELLY FOUNDATION (CONTINUED)

We also communicated relevant identified laws and regulations and potential fraud risks to all engagement team members, and remained alert to any indications of fraud or non-compliance with laws and regulations throughout the audit.

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 transactions 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.

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.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our Auditors' report.

USE OF OUR REPORT

This report is made solely to the charity's Trustee and its directors in accordance with Part 4 of the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the charity's Trustee those matters we are required to state to it in an Auditors' report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charity, its Trustee and directors for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

THE MOUNT KELLY FOUNDATION

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2022

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

1.1 BASIS OF PREPARATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) - Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Charities Act 2011.

The financial statements have been prepared to give a 'true and fair' view and have departed from the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 only to the extent required to provide a 'true and fair' view. This departure has involved following the Charities SORP (FRS 102) published in October 2019 rather than the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice effective from 1 April 2005 which has since been withdrawn.

The Mount Kelly Foundation meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy.

The Consolidated statement of financial activities (SOFA) and Consolidated balance sheet consolidate the financial statements of the Charity and its subsidiary undertaking. The results of the subsidiary are consolidated on a line by line basis.

1.2 GOING CONCERN

The Trustees have continued to assess the impact of inflation and the impact it will have on the ongoing operations of the charity. The school has continued to see increases in pupil numbers despite the increased fee levels each year.

The Trustees have reviewed the current position and does not anticipate any material changes to the operations of the school. In light of this, the Trustees are confident that the Charity has adequate resources in place and consider it appropriate for the financial statements to be prepared on a going concern basis.

1.3 INCOME

All income is recognised once the Charity has entitlement to the income, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount of income receivable can be measured reliably.

Income tax recoverable in relation to investment income is recognised at the time the investment income is receivable.

1.4 EXPENDITURE

Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to transfer economic benefit to a third party, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is classified by activity. The costs of each activity are made up of the total of direct costs and shared costs, including support costs involved in undertaking each activity. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs which contribute to more than one activity and support costs which are not attributable to a single activity are apportioned between those activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. Central staff costs are allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges allocated on the portion of the asset’s use.

Expenditure on charitable activities is incurred on directly undertaking the activities which further the Group's objectives, as well as any associated support costs.

Page 22

THE MOUNT KELLY FOUNDATION

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2022

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

1.4 EXPENDITURE (CONTINUED)

All expenditure is inclusive of irrecoverable VAT.

1.5 GOVERNMENT GRANTS

Government grants relating to tangible fixed assets are treated as deferred income and released to the Consolidated statement of financial activities over the expected useful lives of the assets concerned. Other grants are credited to the Consolidated statement of financial activities as the related expenditure is incurred.

1.6 TANGIBLE FIXED ASSETS AND DEPRECIATION

Tangible fixed assets costing £nil or more are capitalised and recognised when future economic benefits are probable and the cost or value of the asset can be measured reliably.

Tangible fixed assets are initially recognised at cost. After recognition, under the cost model, tangible fixed assets are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. All costs incurred to bring a tangible fixed asset into its intended working condition should be included in the measurement of cost.

Depreciation is charged so as to allocate the cost of tangible fixed assets less their residual value over their estimated useful lives.

Depreciation is provided on the following bases:

Freehold property - 1 -2% straight line
Land - not depreciated
Motor vehicles - 15% straight line
Fixtures and fittings - 10% straight line
Other fixed assets - 6.67 - 25% straight line

1.7 INVESTMENTS

Fixed asset investments are a form of financial instrument and are initially recognised at their transaction cost and subsequently measured at fair value at the Balance sheet date, unless the value cannot be measured reliably in which case it is measured at cost less impairment. Investment gains and losses, whether realised or unrealised, are combined and presented as ‘Gains/(Losses) on investments’ in the Consolidated statement of financial activities.

Investments in subsidiaries are valued at cost less provision for impairment.

1.8 STOCKS

Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value after making due allowance for obsolete and slow-moving stocks. Cost includes all direct costs and an appropriate proportion of fixed and variable overheads.

1.9 DEBTORS

Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due.

THE MOUNT KELLY FOUNDATION

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2022

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

1.10 CASH AT BANK AND IN HAND

Cash at bank and in hand includes cash and short-term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account.

1.11 LIABILITIES AND PROVISIONS

Liabilities are recognised when there is an obligation at the Balance sheet date as a result of a past event, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefit will be required in settlement, and the amount of the settlement can be estimated reliably.

Liabilities are recognised at the amount that the Charity anticipates it will pay to settle the debt or the amount it has received as advanced payments for the goods or services it must provide.

Provisions are measured at the best estimate of the amounts required to 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 at the pre-tax discount rate that reflects the risks specific to the liability. The unwinding of the discount is recognised in the Consolidated statement of financial activities as a finance cost.

1.12 FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Group only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value with the exception of bank loans which are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

1.13 FINANCE LEASES AND HIRE PURCHASE

Assets obtained under hire purchase contracts and finance leases are capitalised as tangible fixed assets. Assets acquired by finance lease are depreciated over the shorter of the lease term and their useful lives. Assets acquired by hire purchase are depreciated over their useful lives. Finance leases are those where substantially all of the benefits and risks of ownership are assumed by the Group. Obligations under such agreements are included in creditors, net of the finance charge allocated to future periods. The finance element of the rental payment is charged to the Consolidated statement of financial activities so as to produce a constant periodic rate of charge on the net obligation outstanding in each period.

1.14 FUND ACCOUNTING

General funds are unrestricted funds which are available for use at the discretion of the Trustee in furtherance of the general objectives of the Group and which have not been designated for other purposes.

Restricted funds are funds which are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by donors or which have been raised by the Group for particular purposes. The costs of raising and administering such funds are charged against the specific fund. The aim and use of each restricted fund is set out in the notes to the financial statements.

Investment income, gains and losses are allocated to the appropriate fund.

22. PENSION COMMITMENTS

There are several pension schemes available to employees of the School, a Direct Contribution Scheme for teaching staff and a Group Personal Pension and a Death in Service Life Assurance for non-teaching staff.

Teachers' Pension Scheme

In the past, the school participated in the Teacher's Pension Scheme ("the TPS") for its teaching staff. During the year, the school left this scheme and have made arrangements to run their own pension scheme for its staff.

The pension charge for the year includes contributions payable to the TPS and at the year-end £nil (2021 - £66,517) was accrued in respect of contributions to this scheme.

The Teachers' Pension Scheme (TPS) is a statutory, contributory, defined benefit scheme, governed by the Teachers' Pension Scheme Regulations 2014. Membership is automatic for full-time teachers in academies. All teachers have the option to opt-out of the TPS following enrolment.

The TPS is an unfunded scheme to which both the member and employer makes contributions, as a percentage of salary - these contributions are credited to the Exchequer. Retirement and other pension benefits are paid by public funds provided by Parliament.

The Government Actuary, using normal actuarial principles, conducts a formal actuarial review of the TPS in accordance with the Public Service Pensions (Valuations and Employer Cost Cap) Directions 2014 published by HM Treasury every 4 years. The aim of the review is to specify the level of future contributions. Actuarial scheme valuations are dependent on assumptions about the value of future costs, design of benefits and many other factors. The latest actuarial valuation of the TPS was carried out as at 31 March 2016. The valuation report was published by the Department for Education on 5 March 2019. The key elements of the valuation and subsequent consultation are:

Page 38

THE MOUNT KELLY FOUNDATION

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2022

22. PENSION COMMITMENTS (CONTINUED)

The next valuation result is due to be implemented from 1 April 2023.

A copy of the valuation report and supporting documentation is on the Teachers' Pensions website (https://www.teacherspensions.co.uk/news/employers/2019/04/teachers-pensions-valuation-report.aspx).

Under the definitions set out in FRS 102, the TPS is an unfunded multi-employer pension scheme. The Charity has accounted for its contributions to the scheme as if it were a defined contribution scheme. The Charity has set out above the information available on the scheme.

On 1 January 2022, the Mount Kelly Foundation put into place a new defined contribution scheme for teaching staff. At the year-end, £46,936 (2021 - £nil) was included in creditors in respect of contributions to this scheme. The assets of the scheme are held separately from those in the School in independently administered funds.

Non-teaching staff

All non teaching staff are invited to participate in the Group Personal Pension Plan and the Death in Service Life Assurance. This scheme is a defined contribution scheme, and the assets of the scheme are held separately from those in the School in independently administered funds.

Contributions totalling £25,580 (2021 - £13,622) were payable at the year-end.

23. OPERATING LEASE COMMITMENTS

At 31 August 2022 the Group and the Charity had commitments to make future minimum lease payments under non-cancellable operating leases as follows:

24. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

A number of employees of the Charity have children who are pupils at the school and therefore pay fees to the School. All transactions are conducted in accordance with the Foundation's financial regulation and normal procurement procedures, although they are given staff discount of 50%-80%.

25. PRINCIPAL SUBSIDIARIES

Mount Kelly operates three trading subsidiaries.

a) Mount Kelly Overseas Limited

Due to the impact of the issues between Hong Kong and China, the overseas franchisee has been unable to make a contribution to the Foundation this year and, as a result, Mount Kelly Overseas Limited incurred a loss of £37,660 in the year.

Page 39

THE MOUNT KELLY FOUNDATION

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2022

25. PRINCIPAL SUBSIDIARIES (CONTINUED)

b) Mount Kelly Swimming Limited

The company’s operations were severely impacted by the pandemic. This year the company has been able to provide full use of both the 50m and 25m pools, as well as full-size classes resulting in more revenue but with increasing costs as a result of the current energy crisis.

Consequently, the company made a loss of £235,101 in the year after paying intra group rent to the Mount Kelly Foundation of £60,000. The Mount Kelly Foundation is committed to supporting its 100% subsidiary, by granting the subsidiary sufficient funds to cover this loss, as the pool brings benefits to the Foundation as a whole that far exceed this value.

c) Mount Kelly Enterprises Limited

The company generates income from letting out of the Foundation's estate. The majority of this activity is over the summer, as such the core activities of the company were consistent with the prior year.

The company generated a profit of £86,321 in the year.
