Strategic Principal activity The principal activty of Co-ownership remains unchanged and is the prowsion of intermediate housing on a shared ownership basis for persons in need thereof. C¢>Ownership provides a public benefit through helping enable families and individuals, who meet the crrteria for relief ofthose in need, to have a home of their own through shared ownership.

To lead the way on affordable home ownership. Our Values.. Putting customers first, working together. doing the right thing. and evofving and improving. Whilst the Group operates on not-for-profrt principles, the generation of an annual surplus is vital to ensure the ongoing investment in new homes. to meet the commrtments to lenders, and to generally ensure adequate protection against unforeseen circumstances. Co-ownership has developed a three year corporate plan vthich sets out an ambrtion deliver on four primary objectives. These objectives are to extend its reach and impact on society, to be the best we can be for our customers, to be strong advocates and trusted partners for home ownership and to be a great place to work with high perfomiing teams delivering our service. The plan is on track to deliver the objectives wrthin the agreed timetable. The key strengths of the Group which enable its primary objectives to be met are: A customer ￿ntriC focus, wtth a product offering that meets customer needs., A commitment to the highest standards of customer service and corporate govemance; A financial position which secures the confidence of funders, facilttating future investment and strategic grovrth opportunities- and Professional and dedicated staff who are committed to the Group's objectives. Review of business and future developments During the year Co-ownership helped customers purchase a total of 771 (2023: 745) properties and as a result the housing property portfolio increased from £486m to £513m. Staircasing activity levels were impacted by higher mortgage rates, with 448 full property sales transactions 12023= 576} and 68 partial staircases {57 in 2023). The level of repossession sales remained low and totalled 9 for the year (2023: 22). At 31 March 2024 Co-ownership had interests in 10,523 homes {2023= 10.209}. The Board continues to explore opportunities for enhancement of rts services going forward, in response to a changing housing market. The shared ownership product for people over the age of 55, which was launched in June 2022, is aimed at helping provide affordable homeownership for people who are retired or are approaching retirement. Applications since the launch have been encouraging and reSu￿ed in 23 homes being purchased by 31 March 2024. A new customer portal was launched during the year which should enhance customer experience and plans to digitise the staircasing processes are under development. The underlying need for affordable homes in Northem Ireland remains strong, atthough a lack of supply of homes and economic uncertainty are challenges home buyers wll continue to face in the year ahead. Changes to Local development plans by Councils should resutt in more mixed tenure developments being built and Co-ownership will continue to advocate the need for more intemiediate housing. Ownco purchased 9 houses at a totsl cost of £1.7m. making 85 purchases to date. There were 8 property sales in the year, of which 5 were to previous tenants of the schem¢. At 31 March 2024 Ownco owned 24 homes and held £6.6m on deposit for reinvestment.

Northern Ireland Co-ownership Housing Association Limited Report of the Board of Management and the Strategic Report 2. Financial Financial Perfonnance The surplus forthe year amounted to £17.9m12023: surplus £15.7ml. The increase primarily arises from an increase in rents to £15.5m12023." £14.5m), a decrease in operating costs to £5.5m (2023." £5.9m), a decrease in the surplus on sale of housing properties to £5.5m (2023.. £7.2m) and an increase in interest receivable to £3.5m (2023: £1.3m). The Department for Communities {DfC) provided Co-ownership with Financial Transaction Capital of £14.2m by way of long temi loans during the year, which together with Co-ownership's own resources funded the investment in homes. During the year sales proceeds generated £8.1 m of grant repayable to Dfc and in addition Co-ownership made £5m of loan repayments to Dfc. Ownco made £3m of earty loan ￿paYrnents to Dfc. A loan facilty of £65m with Bank of Ireland remains in place for a further five years. Of this facilty, £30m was drawn throughout the year. At the year-end the Group had cash and deposit balan￿5 of £75m (2023: £89m). net current assets of £68m {2023'. £80m) and total net assets of £160m {2023.' £142m). Co-ownership's policy is to retain a level of revenue resetves, which matches its needs at the current time and in the foreseeable future. The revenue reserves required are sufficient to meeting committed running costs for a peri¢Jd equivalent to six months budgeted future expendrture. The Board are satisfied with the underlying financial performance of the Group. They are of the view that for the foreseeable future Co-ownership will continue to generate sufficient operating surplus to cover tts operating and financing costs and have sufficient finance to fund its ongoing activities for a period of at least 12 months. It therefore ontinues to adopt the going concem basis in the preparation of the annual financial statements.

The address of the registered office is Moneda House, 25-27 Wellington Place, Belfast, BT16GD. Statement of compliance These financial statements of Northem Ireland C¢>Ownership Association Limrted have been prepared on the going concern basis in compliance with United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102, "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the Unrted Kingdom and the Republi¢ of Ireland" {"FRS 102"), in accordance with applicable accounting standards in the United Kingdom and Statement of Recommended Practice for Accounting by Registered Social Landlords (updated 2018). The principal accounting policies. which have been applied consistently throughout the year, are set out below. The presentation of the financial ststements complies wrth the Registered Housing Associations {Accounting Requirements) Order (Northern Ireland) 1993. Disclosure exemptions In preparing the separate financial statements of the Association, advantage has been taken of the following disclosure exemptions available in FRS 102: no cash flow statement or net debt reconciliation has been presented for the Association. Summary of significant accounting policies The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented. unless otherwise stated. The Group has adopted FRS 102 in these financial Statements. The significant accounting policies adopted by the Group are as follows: Basis of preparation of financial statements These consolidated and separate financial statements are prepared on a going concem basis, under the historical cost convention. The preparation of financial statements requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise rts judgement in the process of applying the Group and Co-ownership accounting policies. The areas involving a higher degree of judgement or complexity. or areas where assumptions and estirnates are signfficant to the financial statements. are disclosed in note 4. Basls of consolidation The consolidated statement of comprehensive income and consolidated statement of financial position are made up to 31 March 2024. Intra group transactions, any unrealised profitsllosses arising and interGompany balances are eliminated fully on consolidation. Going concern After making enquiries and reviewing the financial plan. the Board has a reasonable expectation thatthe Group has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable fLrture. For this reason, f( continues to adopt the going concem basis in the financial statements.

19 Northern Ireland Co-ownership Housing Association Limited Notes to the financial ststements for the year ended 31 March 2024 (continued) Summary of significant accounting policies (continued) Revenue recognition Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable and represents the amount receivable for goods supplied or services rendered. net of returns, discounts and rebates allowed by the Group and Co-ownership and value added taxes The Group and Co-ownership bases its estimate of returns on historical results, taking into consideration the type of customer, the type of transaction and the specifics of each arrangement. Where the consideration receivable in cash and cash equivalents is deferred and the arrangément constitutes a financing transaction. the fair value of the consideration is measured at the present value of all future receipts using the imputed rate of interest. The Group and CcFOwnership recognises revenue when (a} the signfficant risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred to the buyer, {b) the Group and Co•Ownership retains no Gontinuing involvement or control over the goods- {c} the amount of revenue can be measured reliably.. (dl it is probable that future economic benefrts will flow through the Group and Co-ownership and (e) when the specific criteria relating to each of the Group and C¢TrOwnership's sales channels have been met, as described below and in note 5. Rental income Income represents rental income receivable. Rental income is recognised from the point that the properties are formally let and spread over the rentsl term. First tranche equty sales Proceeds from the first tranche disposals are accounted for as turnover in the Statement of comprehensive income n the period in which the disposal occurs which is the legal completion date. Donations received Donations receNed are recognised in the Statement of comprehensive income when the donation is received. Value added tax The financial statements include VAT to the extent that rt is suffered by the Group and not recoverable from HM Revenue and Customs. Current taxation The tax expense for the period comprises cu￿ent and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the statement of comprehensive income. The cu￿ent income tax charge is calculated on the basis of tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date in the countries vlhere the company's subsidiaries operate and generate taxable income. Employee benefits The Group provides a range of benefrts to employees. including paid holiday arrangements and defined benefit pension plans. Short term beneffts Short term benefits, including holiday pay and other similar non-T￿netary beneffts. are recognised as an expense in the period in which the sep4ice is received.

20 Northern Ireland Co-ownership Housing Association Limited Notes to the financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2024 (continued) Summary of significant accounting policies (continued) Pension funding Retirement benefrts to employees of C¢>Ownership are provided by the Northem Ireland Local Govemment Officers Superannuation Committee {NILGOSCI defined benefit scheme which is exiemally funded and contracted out of the State Earnings Related Pension Scheme. In respect of this scheme, Cckfvnership's staff constttutes only a small percentage of the overall membership. Co-ownership has no influence over the level of contributions. The assets of the NILGOSC scheme are held separately from those of C¢>Ownership. Co-ownership has adopted FRS 102 section 28 'Employee benefrts, in these financial statements. Pension scheme assets are measured using market value. Pension scheme liabilities are measured using the projected unit method and discounted at the cu￿ent rate of retum on a high quality corporate bond ofequivalenl temi to the liability. The movement in the present value of the liabilities of C￿OwnershIp,S defined benefit pension scheme arising from employee seNice in the year is charged to the statement of comprehensive income. Under FRS 102. a net interest expense. based on the net defined benefit liabilrty, is recognised in the statement of comprehensive income. A net defined benefit asset is only recognised to the extent that the surplus is able to be recovered etiher through reduced contribulions in the future or through refunds from the scheme. The contributions are determined by qualified actuaries on the basis of triennial valuations, using a projected unit method. Tangible fixed assets Housing properties Housing properties are stated at cost which is purchase price together with any incidental costs of acquisition. These properties are effectively purchased concurrently by Co-ownership and participants and so are disclosed in fixed assets at the cost to Co-ownership wrth the participants. net investment also disclosed in the housing properties note to the financial ststements. Housing properties are not depreciated as the Group estimates that the residual value is higher than the historical cost before charging any depreciation. Impaiment Any impaimient in the value of the housing properties is charged to the statement of comprehensive income in the year in which tt is first recognised. A reversal of impaimient is recognised in the statement of comprehensive income. Other fixed assets Other fixed assets a￿ stated at cost iv) Other tangible fixed assets Tangible fixed assets are stated at historic purchase cost ￿s$ a¢¢umulated depreciation. The cost of tangible fixed assets is their historic purchase cost, together wrth any incidental costs of acquisition. Depreciation is calculated after allowing for grants received, so as to write off the cost of tangible fixed assets on a straight line basis over the expected useful economic lives of the assets concerned. The principal annual rates used are as follows.. Office equipment Fixtures and frttings 25 10

21 Northern Ireland Co-ownership Housing Association Limited Notes to the financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2024 (continued) Summary of significant accounting policies (continued) Derecognition Tangible assels are derecognised on disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected. On disposal the difference be￿een the net disposal proceeds and the carying amount is recognised in the Statement of comprehensive income. Housing Association Grant and other grants Housing Association Grant and other grants received are included within 'Creditors'. amounts falling due after more than one yearf and 'Creditors.' amounts falling due within one yearf. Housing Association Grant received against revenue expendrture is credited to revenue in the period in which the related expendi(ure is charged. Such grants, allhough treated as a grant for accounting purposes, may be repayable under certain circumstances, primarily following the sale of housing property. but any amount repayable would be restricted to the original grant amount. Housing Association Grants received are capital grants and as they relate to house purchases are nol recognised in the statement of comprehensive income, rather they are held as a liabilrty on the balance sheet until the housing investment is sold at which point the grant is repaid. Othergrants relating to revenue are recognised in income and expenditure overthe same period as the expendrture to which they relate once perfomiance related condrtions have been met. Stock The costs relating to expected future property sales are tpnsferred from housing properties in fixed assets to inventories for sales occurring one month following the year end. Current asset investments Current asset investments are short-temi, liquid depostts with an original maturty be￿een one and twefve months. All current asset investments are classified as cash equivalents within the financial ststements. Cash and cash equivalents Cash consists of cash at bank and in hand. Cash equivalents consist of short-term, highly liquid deposits held at call or at notice with banks with original maturities of twelve months or less. Debtors Debtors are stated after all known bad debts have been written off and specific provision has been made against all debts considered doubtful for collection. Housing loans All borrowings are inttially stated at the fair value of the consideration received. Finance costs are charged to the income and expenditure account over the temi of the borrowings. Interest payable but not yet paid at the year*nd is shown as accrued interest within credttors due within one year.

22 Northern Ireland Co-ownership Housing Association Limited Notes to the financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2024 (continued) Summary of significant accounting policies (continued) Impaimient of non-financial assets At each statement of financial position date non-financial assets not carried at fair value are assessed to determine whether there is an indication that the asset may be impaired. If there is such an indication the recoverable amount of the asset is compared to the carying amount of the asset. The recoverable amount of the asset is the higher of Ihe fair value less costs to sell and value in use. Value in use is defined as the present value of the future cash flows before interest and tax obtainable as a resutt of the asset's continued use. These cash flows discounted using a pre-tax discount rate that represents the current market risk- free rate and the risks inherent in the assets. If the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated to be lower than the carrying amount, the carrying amount is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impainnent loss is reco3nised in the Statement of income and retained earnings, unless the asset has been revalued when the amount is recognised in other comprehensive income to the extent of any previously recognised revaluation. Thereafter any excess is recognised in the Statement of income and retained earnings. If an impainnent loss is subsequentty reversed, the carrying amount of the asset is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount. but only to the e*(ent that the revised carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined (net of depreciation or amortisation} had no impairment loss been recognised in prior periods. A reversal of an impaimient loss is recognised in the statement of income and retained earnings. Provisions Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation as a resutt of past events: it is probable that an oufflow of resources will be required to settte the obligation., and the amount of the obligations can be estimated reliably. IAlhere there are a number of similar obligations. the likelihood that an oufflow will be required in settlement is determined by considering the class of obligations as a whole. A provision is recognised even if the likelihood of an outflow with respect to any one item included in the same class of obligations may be small. Provisions are measured at the present value of the expenditures expected to be required to settle the obligation using a pre-tsx rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the obligation. The increase in the provision due to passage of time is recognised as a finance cost. Contingencies Contingent liabilities, arising a5 a result of past events, are not recognised when (i) it is not probable that there will be an outflow of resources or that the amount cannot be reliably measured at the reporting date or (li) when the existence will be confimied by the occurrence or non-¢xcurrence of uncertain future events not wholly within the Group s control. Contingent liabilities are disclosed in the financial statements unless the probability of an oufflow of resources is remote. Operating leases Annual rentals on operating leases are charged to profrt or loss on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.

23 Northern Ireland Co-ownership Housing Association Limited Notes to the financial ststements for the year ended 31 March 2024 (continued) Summary of significant accounting policies (continued) Financial instruments The Group has chosen to adopt Sections 11 and 12 of FRS 102 in respect of financial instruments. Financial assets Basic financial assets, including trade and other receivables and cash and bank balances are inrtially recognised at transaction price. At the end of each reporting period financial assets measured at amortised cost are assessed for objective evidence of impairment. If an asset is impaired the impairment loss is the dtfference be￿een the carying amount and the expected realisable value of the asset. The impaimient loss is recognised in Statement of income and retained earnings. If there is a decrease in the impairment bss arising from an event occurring after the impaimient was recognised, the impaimient is reversed. The reversal is such that the current carrying amount does not exceed what the carrying amount would have been had the impairment not previously been recognised. The impairment reversal is recognised in Statement of income and retained eamings. Financial assets are derecognised when (al the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire or are settled, (b) substantially all the risks and rewards of the ownership of the asset are transferred to another party or, {c) despite having retained some signrficant risks and rewards of ownership, control of the asset has been transferred to another paty who has the practical abilty to unilaterally sell the asset to an unrelated third party without imposing additional restrictions. Financial liabilities Basic financial liabilities, including trade and other payables. bank loans and other borrowings, are initially recognised at transaction pri￿, unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, Whe￿ the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method. Fees paid on the establishment of loan facilities are recognised as transaction costs of the loan to the exient that it is probable that some or all of the facilty will be drawn down. In this case. the fee is deferred until the draw-down occurs. To the extent there is no evidence that it is probable that some or all of the facilty will be drawn down, the fee is capitalised as a pre-payment for liquidity services and amortised over the period of the facility to which it relates. Trade payables are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. Accounts payable are classrfied as cu￿ent liabilities rf payment is due within one year or less. If not. they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade payables are recognised initially at transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Revenue reserves Co-ownership's policy is to retsin a level of free reserves. which matches its needs at the current time and in the foreseeable future. The reserves required are sufficient to meeting committed running costs for a period equivalent to six months budgeted future expenditure. Designated reserve - property purchase All olher reserves are treated as designated feserves as they are used to fund Co-ownership's investment in housing properties and thus are not available for future general use. Transfers between reserves are made to retain committed running costs for a period equivalent to six months of budgeted future expenditure wrthin the Revenue reserve.

24 Northern Ireland Co-ownership Housing Association Limited Notes to the financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2024 (continued) Critical accounting judgements and estimation uncertainty Estimates and judgements made in the process of preparing the Group financial statements are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Critical judgement in applying the entity's accounting policies The following judgement. apart from those involving estimates, made by the directors has had signrficant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements-. C¢>Ownership provides housing on a shared ownership basis. Under the arrangement Co-Owner5hip has with a lender on an individual propety. the lender ranks in priority to Co-ownership and therefore rf the borrower fails to pay the lender, the propety could be repossessed by that lender. Co-ownership has incurred losses on repossessed properties over recent years. As a result. it is necessary to recognise an impairment provision for future losses expected on the repossession of such properties. When calculating the provision management consider the historical losses incurred, and current property values based on recent transactions and apply an expected loss ratio to the book value of properties. Estimation uncertainty in applying the entity's accounting policies In preparing the financial statements the recoverabilty of debtors and the level of impairment on housing properties has been considered. A provision for bad debts has been made for the estimated amount of debtors that are considered to be unrecoverable. The level of provision held at the year end is set out in note 18. A provision for the impaimient on housing assets has been made for the estimated amount of investment that is considered to be unrealisable. Management take into account factors including the broader Northern Ireland propety market, the yield level of the properties and other known factors as part of this consideration. There has been a release of £0.7m this year due to the improvement in the housing market since the prior year end The level of impairment provision at the year end is set out in note 13. The underlying assumptions relating to the valuation of the Group's defined benefit pension scheme position include estimates of inflation. mortalty. discount rate and anticipated salary increase5. The Group uses the Group's actuaries to value the scheme's assets and liabilities. The assumptions used are also provided by thè Group's actuaries and have not been adjusted. Variations in these assumptions. along with movements in asset valuations, can be expected to signtficantly alter the net pension postiion from year to year.
