STRATEGIC REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30TH JUNE 2018

The directors present their strategic report for the year ended 30th June 2018.

REVIEW OF BUSINESS
Turnover decreased during the year by 7%, from £13,087,963 to £12,127,148.

The profit and loss account on page 6 shows an operating profit for the year of £659,577 (2017: £1,112,698), a decrease
of 41% from last year, and a profit before tax of £743,444 (2017: £1,163,488, a decrease of 36% on the prior year.

Gross profit margin was down to 7% (2017: 10%), as was operating profit margin to 5.4% (2017: 8.5%).

The decline in turnover, gross profit, and operating profit resulted from the transfer of a number of product lines to
another connected company. The decline in gross and operating margins arose mainly as a result of some of the costs
associated with the revenue now generated in the connected company, being retained in Manchester Drinks Company
Ltd.

The net assets of the company have increased to £4,541,139 (2017: £3,931,489), an increase of 16% on last year, as
shown on the balance sheet on page 8. This uplift arose largely as a result of a reduction in connected company balances
in the year.

During the year the company continued to supply retailers with alcoholic beverages. The company has no branches
outside of the UK.

The directors are satisfied with the financial results achieved and are optimistic about the future performance of the
company. There have been no significant post balance sheet events.

PRINCIPAL RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES
The risks facing the company are assessed on an on-going basis. The directors evaluate the likelihood and potential
impact of each risk and ensure appropriate action is taken to mitigate them. The principal risk and uncertainty facing the
company is that it continues to trade in a challenging market. The company has taken significant steps to reduce the risk
by undertaking a continual review of costs.

FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES
The company is exposed to the usual credit risk and cash flow risks associated with selling on credit terms and manages
this risk using tight credit control procedures. The company makes little use of financial instruments.

FUTURE DEVELOPMENTS
Going forward the directors are seeking to achieve organic growth and increase the company's activity.

B C Levine - Director

DIRECTORS
The directors shown below have held office during the whole of the period from 1st July 2017 to the date of this report.

B C Levine

STRATEGIC REPORT
The directors have chosen to include in the Strategic Report information concerning future developments, post balance
sheet events, the location of branches and the use of financial instruments rather than including this information within
the Directors' Report.

STATEMENT OF DIRECTORS' RESPONSIBILITIES
The directors are responsible for preparing the Strategic Report, the Report of the Directors and the financial statements
in accordance with applicable law and regulations.

Company law requires the directors to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law the directors
have elected to prepare the financial statements in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting
Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards and applicable law), including Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The
Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland'. Under company law the directors must not
approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the
company and of the profit or loss of the company for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the directors
are required to:

-select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-make judgements and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the company will
continue in business.

The directors are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the
company's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the company and
enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for
safeguarding the assets of the company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud
and other irregularities.

STATEMENT AS TO DISCLOSURE OF INFORMATION TO AUDITORS
So far as the directors are aware, there is no relevant audit information (as defined by Section 418 of the Companies Act
2006) of which the company's auditors are unaware, and each director has taken all the steps that he ought to have taken
as a director in order to make himself aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the company's
auditors are aware of that information.

AUDITORS
The auditors, Corporate Audit Solutions, Statutory Auditor, will be proposed for re-appointment at the forthcoming
Annual General Meeting.

ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD:





B C Levine - Director


12th March 2019

REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF
MANCHESTER DRINKS COMPANY LTD

Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of Manchester Drinks Company Ltd (the 'company') for the year ended
30th June 2018 which comprise the Income Statement, Other Comprehensive Income, Balance Sheet, Statement of
Changes in Equity, Cash Flow Statement and Notes to the Cash Flow Statement, Notes to the Financial Statements,
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:
-give a true and fair view of the state of the company's affairs as at 30th June 2018 and of its profit for the year then
ended;
-have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and
-have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006.

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 company in accordance with the ethical
requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC'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
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the ISAs (UK) require us to report to
you where:
- the directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is not
appropriate; or
- the directors have not disclosed in the financial statements any identified material uncertainties that may cast
significant doubt about the company's ability to continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting for a period
of at least twelve months from the date when the financial statements are authorised for issue.

Other information
The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information in the Strategic
Report and the Report of the Directors, but does not include the financial statements and our Report of the Auditors
thereon.

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.

In connection with our audit of the financial statements, 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 audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or
apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether there is a material misstatement in the financial
statements or a material misstatement of the other information. 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.

Opinion on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006
In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:
- the information given in the Strategic Report and the Report of the Directors for the financial year for which the
financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and
- the Strategic Report and the Report of the Directors have been prepared in accordance with applicable legal
requirements.

REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF
MANCHESTER DRINKS COMPANY LTD


Matters on which we are required to report by exception
In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit,
we have not identified material misstatements in the Strategic Report or the Report of the Directors.

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters where the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you
if, in our opinion:
- adequate accounting records have not been kept, or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from
branches not visited by us; or
- the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or
- certain disclosures of directors' remuneration specified by law are not made; or
- we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit.

Responsibilities of directors
As explained more fully in the Statement of Directors' Responsibilities set out on page three, the directors are
responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and
for such internal control as the directors determine 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 directors are responsible for assessing the company'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 directors either intend to liquidate the company or to cease operations, or have no realistic
alternative but to do so.

Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements
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 a Report of the Auditors 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.

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 Report of the Auditors.

Use of our report
This report is made solely to the company's members, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the
Companies Act 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the company's members those
matters we are required to state to them in a Report of the Auditors and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent
permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the company and the company's
members as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

3. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparing the financial statements
These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland" and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention as modified by the revaluation of certain assets.

Significant judgements and estimates
In the application of the company's accounting policies, the directors are required to make judgements, estimates
and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other
sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are
considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates
are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the
period of revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods.

Accounting estimates included within the financial statements are depreciation and provisions for bad debts and
obsolete stock. All estimates are made on a line-by-line basis using the directors' knowledge and expertise.

Turnover
Turnover is recognised at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable for goods provided in the
normal course of business and is shown excluding discounts, rebates, value added tax and other sales taxes.

Sales are recognised at the point at which the company has fulfilled its contractual obligation.

Intangible assets
Intangible assets are initially measured at cost. After initial recognition, intangible assets are measured at cost
less any accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses.

Patents and licences are being amortised evenly over their estimated useful life of nil years.

Computer software is being amortised evenly over its estimated useful life of nil years.

Intangible assets - patents and licences
Patents and licences are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost or valuation, net of
amortisation and impairment losses.

Patents and licences are amortised on a straight line basis over 10 years, which is the lifetime of the asset.

Intangible assets - software
Software assets are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost, net of amortisation and any
impairment losses.

Computer software has not been amortised in the current year as the asset is not yet in use. The development of
this bespoke software is not yet complete.

3. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

Tangible fixed assets
Tangible fixed assets are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost or valuation, net of
depreciation and any impairment losses.

Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful
life.
Plant and machinery - 10% on reducing balance
Fixtures and fittings - 25% on reducing balance

The gain or loss arising on the disposal of an asset is determined as the difference between the sales proceeds
and the carrying value of the asset, and is recognised in the profit and loss account.

At each balance sheet date, the company reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible assets to determine whether
there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the
recoverable amount of an asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss, if any. Where
it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of the asset, the company estimates the recoverable amount
of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.

If the recoverable amount of an asset is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the
asset is reduced to its recoverable amount. Impairment loss is recognised as an expense immediately in profit and
loss, unless the relevant asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case the impairment loss is treated as a
revaluation decrease.

Recognised impairment losses are reversed if the reasons for the impairment loss have ceased to apply. Where an
impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset is increased to the revised estimate of its
recoverable amount to the extent that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that
would have been determined (net of depreciation) had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in prior
years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss, unless the relevant asset is
carried at a revalued amount, in which case the reversal of the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation
increase.

Stocks
Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value, after making due allowance for obsolete and slow
moving items.

Cost is calculated on a first-in first-out basis and is based on invoiced cost.

When stocks are sold, the carrying amount of those stocks is recognised as an expense in the period in which the
related revenue is recognised.

At each reporting date, an assessment is made for impairment.The amount of any write-down of stocks to net
realisable value and all losses of stocks are recognised as an expense in the period in which the write-down or
loss occurs. The amount of any reversal of any write-down of stocks is recognised as a reduction in the amount
of stocks recognised as an expense in the period in which the reversal occurs.

Taxation
Taxation for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the Income Statement, except to
the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity.

Current or deferred taxation assets and liabilities are not discounted.

Current tax is recognised at the amount of tax payable using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or
substantively enacted by the balance sheet date.

3. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued
Taxation
Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed at the balance
sheet date.

Timing differences arise from the inclusion of income and expenses in tax assessments in periods different from
those in which they are recognised in financial statements. Deferred tax is measured using tax rates and laws that
have been enacted or substantively enacted by the year end and that are expected to apply to the reversal of the
timing difference.

Unrelieved tax losses and other deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that they
will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits.

Foreign currencies
Transactions in currencies other than pounds sterling are recorded at the rates of exchange prevailing at the dates
of the transactions. At each reporting date, monetary assets and liabilities that are denominated in foreign
currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing on the reporting end date. Gains and losses arising on
translation are included in the profit and loss account for the period.

Hire purchase and leasing commitments
Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to profit or loss on a straight line basis over the period of the
lease.

Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits
The company operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the company's pension
scheme are charged to profit or loss in the period to which they relate.

3. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

Financial instruments
The company has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 "Basic Financial Instruments" and Section 12
"Other Financial Instruments Issues" of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments.

Financial instruments are recognised in the company's statement of financial position when the company
becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the financial statements, when there is
a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to
realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

Basic financial assets
Basic financial assets, which include trade and other debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measured
at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective
interest method, unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction where the transaction is measured at
the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest.

Other financial assets
Other financial assets, including investments in equity instruments which are not subsidiaries, associates or joint
ventures, are initially measured at fair value, which is normally the transaction price. Such assets are
subsequently carried at fair value and the changes in fair value are recognised in profit or loss, except that
investments in equity instruments, which are not publically traded and whose fair value cannot be measured
reliably, are measured at cost less impairment.

Impairment of financial assets
Financial assets, other than those held at fair value through profit and loss, are assessed for indicators of
impairment at each reporting date. Financial assets are impaired where there is objective evidence that, as a result
of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the financial asset, the estimated future cash
flows have been affected. The impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss.

Derecognition of financial assets
Financial assets are derecognised only when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire, or
when it transfers the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to another entity.

Classification of financial liabilities
Financial liabilities and equity instruments are classified according to the substance of the contractual
arrangements entered into.

An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the company after
deducting all of its liabilities.

Basic financial liabilities, including trade and other creditors, bank loans, loans from fellow group companies
and preference shares that are classified as debt, are initially recognised at transaction price unless the
arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where 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.

Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of
business from suppliers. Accounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or
less. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade creditors are recognised initially at transaction
price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

Other financial liabilities

3. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued
Derivatives, including interest rate swaps and forward foreign exchange contracts, are not basic financial
instruments. Derivatives are initially recognised at fair value on the date a derivative contract is entered into and
are subsequently re-measured at their fair value. Changes in the fair value of derivatives are recognised in profit
or loss in finance costs or finance income as appropriate, unless they are included in a hedging arrangement.

Derecognition of financial liabilities
Financial liabilities are derecognised when, and only when, the company's obligations are discharged, cancelled
or they expire.
