STRATEGIC REPORT
FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 26 MARCH 2023
In accordance with section 414c (11) of the Companies Act, included in the Strategic Report is the review
of the business, principal risks and uncertainties and key performance indicators. This information would have been required by schedule 7 of the "Large and Medium sized Companies and Group (Accounts and Reports) Regulation 2008" to be contained in the Directors' Report.
The principal activity of the Aubaine group is the operation of French gourmet restaurants in prestigious central London locations.
This business review covers the wider Aubaine group, of which Bravespirit Ltd. is the main trading company. The financial year ended 26th of March 2023 was a challenging period of unprecedented inflationary cost pressures on food and beverage ingredients and utility costs. The increase in minimum wage and staff shortages, continuous industrial action coupled with a cost-of-living crisis and continuous industrial rail action made trading difficult. Despite this the group managed to increase like for like revenues by 24.8%, by focusing our efforts on our guests needs and providing them with affordable indulgence. Although challenging market conditions look likely to continue, especially with inflation, cost of living and reduced footfall in central London the group remains committed to profitable growth. Performance for the group this year had been satisfactory considering all the challenges and uncertainties mentioned above. The group now operates five restaurants in central London: Brompton Road, Selfridges, Marylebone, Mayfair, and Notting Hill. Of which we have refurbished two restaurants as part of our strategy to keep updating our ambiance. Sales momentum has continued into the current financial year with trading performance above expected levels, confirming the constant appeal of our restaurants and customers’ desire to continue to go out. The investments we have made in Marketing mainly our social media and digital platform, have shown strong results. Aubaine culture contributes significantly to the success of the Group, we have great people and great people make a great business. Our employees are at the centre of our operations, they encouraged to be creative, hospitable and engaging with customers and the local community to ensure every guest is satisfied. We will continue to invest in our people and existing Restaurants to ensure our offer remains flexible, relevant and differentiated in this competitive and uncertain market. The company entered a voluntary arrangementon the 18th November 2020 to enable the continuation of trade.

STRATEGIC REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 26 MARCH 2023
Principal risks and uncertainties
Given the nature of the company's business, the principal business risks relate to the following: • Supply chain • Energy price astronomical increase • Uncertain geopolitical situation • Qualified staff shortage • Recession/Cost of living • Inflation across the board. Various factors above are linked to the wider Economy, the majority of impact is being felt at present, and all indications are that it is not necessarily beneficial to the sector. For example , Inflation, Energy prices, supply chain , recruitment and retention of workers and the influence of uncertainty are decreasing consumer disposable income and are all increasing demands on resources across the hospitality sector. The above risks are partly mitigated by the following key measures: • Continuous Creative menu engineering that delivers strong margins • Strategic food and drinks pricing model to focus on value perception. • Collaborations and partnerships with strong food and fashion brands to attract a range of new guests • Continuous supply chain improvement through discerning sourcing and skilled negotiation with suppliers and the favourable effect if economies of scale across the group • Continuous focus on delivering an enjoyable experience to our customers at excellent value for money • Competitive reward structures alongside a comprehensive training and development programme • State of the art Digital and Social Media platforms

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF BRAVESPIRIT LIMITED
We have audited the financial statements of Bravespirit Limited (the 'Company') for the period ended 26 March 2023, which comprise the Statement of Income and Retained Earnings, the Balance Sheet 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).
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 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.
In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the directors' 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 Company'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 directors with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF BRAVESPIRIT LIMITED (CONTINUED)
The other information comprises the information included in the Annual Report other than the financial statements and our Auditors' Report thereon. The directors are 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.
In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:
∙the information given in the Strategic Report and the Directors' Report for the financial period for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and
∙the Strategic Report and the Directors' Report have been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.
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 Directors' Report.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF BRAVESPIRIT LIMITED (CONTINUED)
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:
Discussions with and enquiries of management and those charged with governance were held with a view to identifying those laws and regulations that could be expected to have a material impact on the financial statements. We also evaluated the commercial objectives of the Company and assessed managements incentives and opportunities for fraudulent manipulation of results. During the engagement team briefing, the outcomes of these discussions and enquiries were shared with the team, as well as consideration as to where and how fraud may occur in the entity. Those laws and regulations considered to have a direct effect on the financial statements include UK financial reporting standards, Company Law, Tax legislation, and distributable profits legislation. Audit procedures undertaken in response to the potential risks relating to irregularities (which include fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations) comprised of: enquiries of management and those charged with governance as to whether the entity complies with such laws and regulations; enquiries with the same concerning any actual or potential litigation or claims; inspection of relevant legal expenses for evidence of disputes or litigation; testing the appropriateness of journal entries; and the performance of analytical review to identify unexpected movements in account balances and transactions which may be indicative of fraud.
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.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 26 MARCH 2023
2.Accounting policies (continued)
The Company has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 “Basic Financial Instruments” of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments.
The Company has elected to apply the recognition and measurement provisions of IFRS 9 Financial Instruments (as adopted by the UK Endorsement Board) with the disclosure requirements of Sections 11 and 12 and the other presentation requirements of FRS 102.
Financial instruments are recognised in the Company's Balance Sheet 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 receivables, cash and bank balances, are initially measured at their transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at their amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any provision for impairment, 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.
Discounting is omitted where the effect of discounting is immaterial. The Company's cash and cash equivalents, trade and most other receivables due with the operating cycle fall into this category of financial instruments.
Impairment of financial assets
Financial assets are assessed for indicators of impairment at each reporting date.
Financial assets are impaired when events, subsequent to their initial recognition, indicate the estimated future cash flows derived from the financial asset(s) have been adversely impacted. The impairment loss will be the difference between the current carrying amount and the present value of the future cash flows at the asset(s) original effective interest rate.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 26 MARCH 2023
2.Accounting policies (continued)
If there is a favourable change in relation to the events surrounding the impairment loss then the impairment can be reviewed for possible reversal. The reversal will not cause the current carrying amount to exceed the original carrying amount had the impairment not been recognised. The impairment reversal is recognised in the profit or loss.
Financial liabilities
Financial liabilities and equity instruments are classified according to the substance of the contractual arrangements entered into. An equity instruments any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the Company after the deduction of all its liabilities.
Basic financial liabilities, which include trade and other payables, bank loans and other loans are initially measured at their transaction price after transaction costs. When this constitutes a financing transaction, whereby the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Discounting is omitted where the effect of discounting is immaterial.
Debt instruments are subsequently carried at their amortised cost using the effective interest rate method.
Trade payables are obligations to pay for goods and services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. Trade payables are classified as current liabilities if the payment is due within one year. If not, they represent non-current liabilities. Trade payables are initially recognised at their transaction price and subsequently are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Discounting is omitted where the effect of discounting is immaterial.
Derecognition of financial instruments
Derecognition of financial assets
Financial assets are derecognised when their contractual right to future cash flow expire, or are settled, or when the Company transfers the asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to another party. If significant risks and rewards of ownership are retained after the transfer to another party, then the Company will continue to recognise the value of the portion of the risks and rewards retained.
Derecognition of financial liabilities
Financial liabilities are derecognised when the Company's contractual obligations expire or are discharged or cancelled.

factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Critical accounting estimates and assumptions The group makes estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The resulting accounting estimates and assumptions will, by definition, seldom equal the related actual results. The estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are discussed below. Carrying value of investments in/loans made to subsidiary undertakings The directors have reviewed the carrying value of the company's initial investment in its subsidiary undertakings including subsequent loan funding towards restaurant fit out costs and working capital. Based on continued shareholder support, they are confident that the carrying value of investments in, and loans made to these subsidiary undertakings will be recoverable in the future. Based on the above the directors have concluded that no material provision for impairment is required at the balance sheet date. Impairment of goodwill, leasehold property, plant and equipment The group formally determines whether goodwill, leasehold property, plant and equipment are impaired by considering indicators of impairment annually. Shortfalls between the carying value of fixed assets and their recoverable amounts, being the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use, are recognised as impairment losses. This requires the group to determine the lowest levels of assets which generate largely independent cash flows (cash generating units or CGU) and to estimate the value in use of those assets or CGUs. Cash generating units are deemed to be individual restaurant units. The recoverable amount of a CGU is estimated based on a multiple of forecast site EBITDA. The application of an appropriate multiple and forecasting of results requires a significant degree of management estimation and judgemental. In certain scenarios, management will also assess the recoverability of a CGU on the basis of the expected market value of the site. Categorisation of leases In categorising leases as finance leases or operating leases, management makes judgemental as to whether significant risks and rewards of ownership have transferred to the Group as lessee, or to the lessee, where the group is a lessor.
