GROUP STRATEGIC REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2020

Introduction
 
The principal activities of the Group are the design, manufacture and sale of footwear, outdoor accessories, and workwear.

Business review
 
During the period the Group saw turnover, gross profit and profit before taxation decrease. These movements were principally the result of the initial impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and pressure from the strengthening dollar. During the period the Group continued with its strategic move away from low margin/high volume sales and continued to develop new markets and new products. The Group continues to adopt this approach in an attempt to grow its turnover and maintain its gross profit going forward.  

Principal risks and uncertainties
 
Competitive risk
The Group's core markets remain highly competitive. It is difficult to see any improvement in the Group's trading conditions in its largest single market, the UK, in the current period. The Group continues to face price pressures from both customers and suppliers. This means that the Group is likely to continue to face competitive pressures for some time to come.
Legislative risk
The Group holds a number of licences with a number of different licensors. The Group takes care so as to ensure that it is able to meet the requirements of these licences such that it is not in breach of them. Any loss of these licences would have a significant impact upon the Group's ability to generate income.
The Group is governed by a wide range of other legislation. The Group takes great care to keep up to date with all new legislation and regulations to ensure that it can maintain its position within the industry.
Financial risk
The Group's main area of financial risk is foreign currency risk. It also faces credit and liquidity risk.
The Group makes the majority of its purchases in dollars while a significant proportion of its sales are in sterling. A strengthening dollar therefore leads to an erosion in the Group's profit margins. The Group aims to mitigate foreign currency risk by holding sufficient dollars to meet its day to day needs and by growing sales in dollars.
The Group's policy is to minimise credit risk by ensuring that credit terms are only granted to customers who demonstrate an appropriate history and credit position.
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will encounter difficulty in meeting obligations associated with financial liabilities. The Group aims to mitigate liquidity risk by managing cash generation from its activities on a regular basis.
COVID-19
The COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant impact on the Group. Continued worldwide restrictions are expected to have a materially adverse impact on turnover and margins in the short term. The Group has looked to mitigate this by working closely with customers and suppliers throughout the post-year end lockdown periods to ensure that the Group can continue to meet the demand for its products and minimise the risk of bad debts and potential impairment. The Group has also utilised UK government support schemes where relevant.
Due to a number of factors the Group continues to face a challenging trading environment at the year end, but it believes it has sufficient resources to meet these challenges.

GROUP STRATEGIC REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2020

Financial key performance indicators
 
The Group's key performance indicators for the period were turnover and gross profit. The group's turnover for the period decreased by 6.7% to £72,093,023. The Group's gross profit for the period decreased by £1,495,743 to £20,615,086.

Other key performance indicators
 
The Group uses a number of non-financial performance indicators in order to measure performance, including the number of new products. During the current period the Group introduced more new products than during the previous period. 

Section 172 statement
 
This statement sets out how the director has met his responsibilities under section 172 Companies Act 2006. The director believes, in good faith, that he has acted in a way that has promoted the success of the Group as a whole. 
Long-term consequences of decisions 
The director has consistently managed the strategy of the business with a view to long-term financial stability and sustainable growth. This is evidenced by the strength of the Group's own brands, the strength of the brands that the Group partners with via licencing agreements, and the positive financial position of the Group at the year end.
Employees and culture
The director supports internal employee development across the Group and a strong culture ensures that all employees are engaged and actively contribute to the Group's long-term success.
Business relationships
The director actively seeks to establish and maintain long-term relationships with suppliers, customers and licence holders that are both financially and non-financially mutually beneficial to all parties involved. This is evidenced by the maintenance of licence agreements with licence holders for more than the last 15 years.
Business conduct
The director sets high expectations on business conduct and must continuously meet these standards to protect the Group's key stakeholder relationships, including key suppliers, customers and licence holders.


This report was approved by the board on 29 March 2021 and signed on its behalf.

The director proposes a dividend of £14,500 be paid to all A ordinary shareholders (2019 - £Nil).

Future developments

Since the period end the Group has continued to find the trading environment challenging as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Brexit has also increased the uncertainty regarding the economic outlook for the UK and the EU as a whole, although at present it is too early to predict what impact this will have on the Group's business.

Director's responsibilities statement

The director is responsible for preparing the Group Strategic Report, the Director's Report and the consolidated financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations.
 
Company law requires the director to prepare financial statements for each financial year.

Under company law the director must not approve the financial statements unless he is satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Company and the Group and of the profit or loss of the Group for that period.

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


select suitable accounting policies for the Group's financial statements and then apply them consistently;

make judgements and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent;

state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;

prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the Group will continue in business.

The director is 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 the Group and to enable him to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006He is also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the Company and the Group and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

The director is responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the corporate and financial information included on the Group's website. Legislation in the United Kingdom governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements and other information included in Director's Reports may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions.

he has taken all the steps that ought to have been taken as a director in order to be aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the Company and the Group's auditor is aware of that information.

Post balance sheet events

The COVID-19 pandemic continues to have a significant impact on the Group's operations. The Group continues to review stock lines and debtor balances to monitor the risk of impairment, though there have been no significant impairments recognised post-year end.
The director continues to review the Group's profitability and working capital position and is satisfied that there is sufficient headroom within existing facilities to continue to trade.

Auditor

The auditor, Ryecroft Glentonwill be proposed for reappointment in accordance with section 485 of the Companies Act 2006.

This report was approved by the board on 29 March 2021 and signed on its behalf.

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.

Responsibilities of directors
 

As explained more fully in the Director's Responsibilities Statement set out on page 3, the director is 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 director 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 director is responsible for assessing the Group's and the parent 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 director either intends to liquidate the Group or the parent Company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.


Auditor's 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 an Auditor's 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 Group 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 Auditor's Report.

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.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2020

1.


General information

Dragonfly Venture Group Limited (Company no: 07746818) is a private company limited by shares, which is incorporated and registered in England and Wales. The Company and Group's principal place of business is 3A Holywell Hill, St Albans, Hertfordshire, AL1 1ER.

2.Accounting policies

 
2.1

Basis of preparation of financial statements

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention unless otherwise specified within these accounting policies and in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland and the Companies Act 2006.

The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the company and the group. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.

The preparation of financial statements in compliance with FRS 102 requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires Group management to exercise judgement in applying the Group's accounting policies (see note 3).

The Company has taken advantage of the exemption allowed under section 408 of the Companies Act 2006 and has not presented its own Statement of Comprehensive Income in these financial statements.

The following principal accounting policies have been applied:

 
2.2

Basis of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements present the results of the Company and its own subsidiaries ("the Group") as if they form a single entity. Intercompany transactions and balances between group companies are therefore eliminated in full.
The consolidated financial statements incorporate the results of business combinations using the purchase method. In the Balance Sheet, the acquiree's identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities are initially recognised at their fair values at the acquisition date. The results of acquired operations are included in the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income from the date on which control is obtained. They are deconsolidated from the date control ceases.
In accordance with the transitional exemption available in FRS 102, the group has chosen not to retrospectively apply the standard to business combinations that occurred before the date of transition to FRS 102, being 01 April 2014.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2020

2.Accounting policies (continued)

 
2.3

Going concern

The Group meets its working capital requirements through its internal cash resources.
A review of the Group's business activities is provided within the strategic report. In addition, the strategic report also discloses the Group's principal risks and uncertainties, including exposures to competitive, legislative and financial risk.
The COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant impact on the Group’s operations and, at the present time, it is not clear how long the current circumstances are likely to last and what the long term impact will be. 
The economic conditions around the COVID-19 pandemic created uncertainty over the level of demand for the Group’s products due to restrictions over retail outlets and travel. This uncertainty has continued post-year end. 
The director has been in contact with the Group’s bank and has also taken steps to utilise the various support mechanisms instigated by the UK government. The Group has not had to seek out any external finance as a result of the pandemic and continues to have sufficient cash reserves to allow it to trade for the foreseeable future.
Having regard to the above, the director believes it appropriate to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2020

2.Accounting policies (continued)

 
2.4

Revenue

Revenue is recognised to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Group and the revenue can be reliably measured. Revenue is measured as the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, excluding discounts, rebates, value added tax and other sales taxes. The following criteria must also be met before revenue is recognised:

Sale of goods

Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised when all of the following conditions are satisfied:
the Group has transferred the significant risks and rewards of ownership to the buyer;
the Group retains neither continuing managerial involvement to the degree usually associated with ownership nor effective control over the goods sold;
the amount of revenue can be measured reliably;
it is probable that the Group will receive the consideration due under the transaction; and
the costs incurred or to be incurred in respect of the transaction can be measured reliably.

Rendering of services

Revenue from a contract to provide services is recognised in the period in which the services are provided in accordance with the stage of completion of the contract when all of the following conditions are satisfied:
the amount of revenue can be measured reliably;
it is probable that the Group will receive the consideration due under the contract;
the stage of completion of the contract at the end of the reporting period can be measured reliably; and
the costs incurred and the costs to complete the contract can be measured reliably.

 
2.5

Intangible assets

Intangible assets are initially recognised at cost. After recognition, under the cost model, intangible assets are measured at cost less any accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses.

All intangible assets are considered to have a finite useful life. If a reliable estimate of the useful life cannot be made, the useful life shall not exceed ten years.

 Amortisation is provided on the following bases:

Brands
-
20%
straight line

Page 19

 
DRAGONFLY VENTURE GROUP LIMITED
 
 
 
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2020

2.Accounting policies (continued)

 
2.6

Tangible fixed assets

Tangible fixed assets under the cost model are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management.

Depreciation is charged so as to allocate the cost of assets less their residual value over their estimated useful lives, using the straight-line method.

Depreciation is provided on the following basis:

Motor vehicles
-
25%
straight line
Fixtures & fittings
-
33%
straight line

The assets' residual values, useful lives and depreciation methods are reviewed, and adjusted prospectively if appropriate, or if there is an indication of a significant change since the last reporting date.

Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing the proceeds with the carrying amount and are recognised in profit or loss.

 
2.7

Valuation of investments

Investments in subsidiaries are measured at cost less accumulated impairment.

Investments in unlisted shares, whose market value can be reliably determined, are remeasured to market value at each balance sheet date. Gains and losses on remeasurement are recognised in the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income for the period. Where market value cannot be reliably determined, such investments are stated at historic cost less impairment.

Investments in listed company shares are remeasured to market value at each Balance Sheet date. Gains and losses on remeasurement are recognised in profit or loss for the period.

 
2.8

Stocks

Stocks are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value, being the estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell. Cost is based on the cost of purchase on a first in, first outbasis. Work in progress and finished goods include labour and attributable overheads.

At each balance sheet date, stocks are assessed for impairment. If stock is impaired, the carrying amount is reduced to its selling price less costs to complete and sell. The impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss.

 
2.9

Debtors

Short term debtors are measured at transaction price, less any impairment. Loans receivable are measured initially at fair value, net of transaction costs, and are measured subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment.

DRAGONFLY VENTURE GROUP LIMITED
 
 
 
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2020

2.Accounting policies (continued)

 
2.10

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash is represented by cash in hand and deposits with financial institutions repayable without penalty on notice of not more than 24 hours. Cash equivalents are highly liquid investments that mature in no more than three months from the date of acquisition and that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash with insignificant risk of change in value.

In the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows, cash and cash equivalents are shown net of bank overdrafts that are repayable on demand and form an integral part of the Group's cash management.

 
2.11

Financial instruments

The Group only enters into basic financial instrument transactions that result in the recognition of financial assets and liabilities like trade and other debtors and creditors, loans from banks and other third parties, loans to related parties and investments in ordinary shares.

 
2.12

Creditors

Short term creditors are measured at the transaction price. Other financial liabilities, including bank loans, are measured initially at fair value, net of transaction costs, and are measured subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

 
2.13

Foreign currency translation

Functional and presentation currency

The Company's functional and presentational currency is GBP.

Transactions and balances

Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the spot exchange rates at the dates of the transactions.

At each period end foreign currency monetary items are translated using the closing rate. Non-monetary items measured at historical cost are translated using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction and non-monetary items measured at fair value are measured using the exchange rate when fair value was determined.

On consolidation, the results of overseas operations are translated into British Pounds Sterling at rates approximating to those ruling when the transactions took place. All assets and liabilities of overseas operations are translated at the rate ruling at the reporting date. Exchange differences arising on translating the opening net assets at opening rate and the results of overseas operations at actual rate are recognised in other comprehensive income.

 
2.14

Finance costs

Finance costs are charged to profit or loss over the term of the debt using the effective interest method so that the amount charged is at a constant rate on the carrying amount. Issue costs are initially recognised as a reduction in the proceeds of the associated capital instrument.

2.Accounting policies (continued)

 
2.15

Dividends

Equity dividends are recognised when they become legally payable. Interim equity dividends are recognised when paid. Final equity dividends are recognised when approved by the shareholders at an annual general meeting.

 
2.16

Operating leases: the Group as lessee

Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to profit or loss on a straight line basis over the lease term.

 
2.17

Pensions

Defined contribution pension plan

The Group operates a defined contribution plan for its employees. A defined contribution plan is a pension plan under which the Group pays fixed contributions into a separate entity. Once the contributions have been paid the Group has no further payment obligations.

The contributions are recognised as an expense in profit or loss when they fall due. Amounts not paid are shown in accruals as a liability in the Balance Sheet. The assets of the plan are held separately from the Group in independently administered funds.

 
2.18

Interest income

Interest income is recognised in profit or loss using the effective interest method.

 
2.19

Borrowing costs

All borrowing costs are recognised in profit or loss in the year in which they are incurred.

 
2.20

Provisions for liabilities

Provisions are made where an event has taken place that gives the Group a legal or constructive obligation that probably requires settlement by a transfer of economic benefit, and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.
Provisions are charged as an expense to profit or loss in the year that the Group becomes aware of the obligation, and are measured at the best estimate at the Balance Sheet date of the expenditure required to settle the obligation, taking into account relevant risks and uncertainties.
When payments are eventually made, they are charged to the provision carried in the Balance Sheet.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2020

2.Accounting policies (continued)

 
2.21

Current and deferred taxation

The tax expense for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in profit or loss except that a charge attributable to an item of income and expense recognised as other comprehensive income or to an item recognised directly in equity is also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity respectively.

The current income tax charge is calculated on the basis of tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date in the countries where the Company and the Group operate and generate income.

Deferred tax balances are recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed by the Balance Sheet date, except that:
The recognition of deferred tax assets is limited to the extent that it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits; and
Any deferred tax balances are reversed if and when all conditions for retaining associated tax allowances have been met.

Deferred tax balances are not recognised in respect of permanent differences except in respect of business combinations, when deferred tax is recognised on the differences between the fair values of assets acquired and the future tax deductions available for them and the differences between the fair values of liabilities acquired and the amount that will be assessed for tax. Deferred tax is determined using tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date.


3.


Judgements in applying accounting policies and key sources of estimation uncertainty

Tangible fixed assets are depreciated over their useful lives taking into account residual values where appropriate. The actual lives of the assets and residual values are assessed annually and may vary depending on a number of factors. In re-assessing the asset lives, factors such as technological innovation, product life cycles and maintenance programmes are taken into account. Residual values consider such things as future market conditions, the remaining life of the asset and projected disposal.
Stock is valued at the lower of cost or net realisable value, which is determined with reference to the expected selling prices for the goods in question.
