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). 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 judgments 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.Each of the persons who are directors at the time when this Directors' report is approved has confirmed that: so far as that director is aware, there is no relevant audit information of which the Company's auditors are unaware, and that director 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's auditors are aware of that information. 02420790 2016-01-01 2016-12-22 02420790 2015-01-01 2015-12-31 02420790 2016-12-22 02420790 2015-12-31 02420790 2015-01-01 02420790 2 2016-01-01 2016-12-22 02420790 2 2015-01-01 2015-12-31 02420790 5 2016-01-01 2016-12-22 02420790 5 2015-01-01 2015-12-31 02420790 d:CompanySecretary1 2016-01-01 2016-12-22 02420790 d:Director1 2016-01-01 2016-12-22 02420790 d:Director2 2016-01-01 2016-12-22 02420790 d:RegisteredOffice 2016-01-01 2016-12-22 02420790 e:Buildings 2016-01-01 2016-12-22 02420790 e:Buildings 2016-12-22 02420790 e:Buildings 2015-12-31 02420790 e:Buildings e:OwnedOrFreeholdAssets 2016-01-01 2016-12-22 02420790 e:FurnitureFittings 2016-01-01 2016-12-22 02420790 e:FurnitureFittings 2016-12-22 02420790 e:FurnitureFittings 2015-12-31 02420790 e:FurnitureFittings e:OwnedOrFreeholdAssets 2016-01-01 2016-12-22 02420790 e:OwnedOrFreeholdAssets 2016-01-01 2016-12-22 02420790 e:Goodwill 2016-01-01 2016-12-22 02420790 e:Goodwill 2016-12-22 02420790 e:Goodwill 2015-12-31 02420790 e:CurrentFinancialInstruments 2016-12-22 02420790 e:CurrentFinancialInstruments 2015-12-31 02420790 e:Non-currentFinancialInstruments 2016-12-22 02420790 e:Non-currentFinancialInstruments 2015-12-31 02420790 e:CurrentFinancialInstruments e:WithinOneYear 2016-12-22 02420790 e:CurrentFinancialInstruments e:WithinOneYear 2015-12-31 02420790 e:Non-currentFinancialInstruments e:AfterOneYear 2016-12-22 02420790 e:Non-currentFinancialInstruments e:AfterOneYear 2015-12-31 02420790 e:Non-currentFinancialInstruments e:BetweenOneTwoYears 2016-12-22 02420790 e:Non-currentFinancialInstruments e:BetweenOneTwoYears 2015-12-31 02420790 e:Non-currentFinancialInstruments e:BetweenTwoFiveYears 2016-12-22 02420790 e:Non-currentFinancialInstruments e:BetweenTwoFiveYears 2015-12-31 02420790 e:Non-currentFinancialInstruments e:MoreThanFiveYears 2016-12-22 02420790 e:Non-currentFinancialInstruments e:MoreThanFiveYears 2015-12-31 02420790 e:UKTax 2015-01-01 2015-12-31 02420790 e:ShareCapital 2016-12-22 02420790 e:ShareCapital 2015-12-31 02420790 e:ShareCapital 2015-01-01 02420790 e:RevaluationReserve 2016-01-01 2016-12-22 02420790 e:RevaluationReserve 2016-12-22 02420790 e:RevaluationReserve 2 2016-01-01 2016-12-22 02420790 e:RevaluationReserve 2015-01-01 2015-12-31 02420790 e:RevaluationReserve 2015-12-31 02420790 e:RevaluationReserve 2015-01-01 02420790 e:RevaluationReserve 2 2015-01-01 2015-12-31 02420790 e:RetainedEarningsAccumulatedLosses 2016-01-01 2016-12-22 02420790 e:RetainedEarningsAccumulatedLosses 2016-12-22 02420790 e:RetainedEarningsAccumulatedLosses 2015-01-01 2015-12-31 02420790 e:RetainedEarningsAccumulatedLosses 2015-12-31 02420790 e:RetainedEarningsAccumulatedLosses 2015-01-01 02420790 e:FinancialAssetsDesignatedFairValueThroughProfitOrLoss 2016-12-22 02420790 e:FinancialAssetsDesignatedFairValueThroughProfitOrLoss 2015-12-31 02420790 e:FinancialAssetsAmortisedCost 2016-12-22 02420790 e:FinancialAssetsAmortisedCost 2015-12-31 02420790 e:FinancialLiabilitiesFairValueThroughProfitOrLoss e:ListedExchangeTraded 2015-12-31 02420790 e:FinancialLiabilitiesFairValueThroughProfitOrLoss e:UnlistedNon-exchangeTraded 2016-12-22 02420790 e:FinancialLiabilitiesFairValueThroughProfitOrLoss e:UnlistedNon-exchangeTraded 2015-12-31 02420790 e:AcceleratedTaxDepreciationDeferredTax 2016-12-22 02420790 e:AcceleratedTaxDepreciationDeferredTax 2015-12-31 02420790 d:OrdinaryShareClass1 2016-01-01 2016-12-22 02420790 d:OrdinaryShareClass1 2016-12-22 02420790 d:FRS102 2016-01-01 2016-12-22 02420790 d:Audited 2016-01-01 2016-12-22 02420790 d:FullAccounts 2016-01-01 2016-12-22 02420790 d:PrivateLimitedCompanyLtd 2016-01-01 2016-12-22 xbrli:shares iso4217:GBP xbrli:pure

The directors consider the company's financial position at the period end to be satisfactory.
Given the nature of the business the company's directors are of the opinion that key performance indicators are important. The company uses a number of indicators to monitor and improve development performance or the position of the business. Indicators are reviewed and altered to meet changes both in the internal and external environments. The directors do not consider the inclusion of an analysis using key performance indicators to be necessary to assist users of the financial statements in their understanding of the financial performance or position of the company.

The company uses a number of indicators to monitor and improve development performance or the position of the business. Indicators are reviewed and altered to meet changes both in the internal and external environments.

Principal risks and uncertainties
 
The management of the business and the execution of the strategy of the group to which the company belongs are subject to a number of risks. The key business risks and uncertainties affecting the group are considered to relate to the continued provision of adequate government funding.
The directors constantly monitor the company's trading results and revise projections as appropriate to ensure that the company can meet its future obligations as they fall due.
The company is exposed to credit and cash flow risks associated with trading and manages these through credit control procedures. The nature of the it's financial instruments means that price and liquidity risks are minimised by the predetermination of the company funding facilities and terms. The board monitors the company's trading results with a  view to ensuring that the company can meet it's future obligations as they fall due.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE SHAREHOLDERS OF ST. DOMINIC'S LTD.
 

We have audited the financial statements of St. Dominic's Ltd. for the period ended 22 December 2016, set out on pages 7 to 23. The relevant financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and the United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice), including Financial Reporting Standard 102 ‘The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland'.


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 2006Our 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 an Auditors' report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the Company and the Company's members as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.


Respective responsibilities of Directors and Auditors
 

As explained more fully in the Directors' responsibilities statement on page 5, the directors are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view. Our responsibility is to audit and express an opinion on the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and International Standards on Auditing (UK and Ireland). Those standards require us to comply with the Financial Reporting Council's Ethical Standards for Auditors.


Scope of the audit of the financial statements
 

An audit involves obtaining evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements sufficient to give reasonable assurance that the financial statements are free from material misstatement, whether caused by fraud or error. This includes an assessment of whether the accounting policies are appropriate to the Company's circumstances and have been consistently applied and adequately disclosed; the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by the directors; and the overall presentation of the financial statements. In addition, we read all the financial and non-financial information in the Strategic report and the Directors' report to identify material inconsistencies with the audited financial statements and to identify any information that is apparently materially incorrect based on, or materially inconsistent with, the knowledge acquired by us in the course of performing the audit. If we become aware of any apparent material misstatements or inconsistencies we consider the implications for our report.


Opinion on financial statements
 

In our opinion the financial statements:


give a true and fair view of the state of the Company's affairs as at 22 December 2016 and of its profit for the period 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.



Opinion on other matter 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 Directors' report for the financial period for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with those financial statements and such reports have been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.


In the light of our 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 and the Directors' report.

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

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 22 DECEMBER 2016

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 Company 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:

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 Company 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.

Revenue in relation to fee income is recognised over the period of resident's occupancy in the care home.

 
2.5

Interest income

Interest income is recognised in the Statement of comprehensive income using the effective interest method.

 
2.6

Finance costs

Finance costs are charged to the Statement of comprehensive income 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.

 
2.7

Borrowing costs

All borrowing costs are recognised in the Statement of comprehensive income in the period in which they are incurred.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 22 DECEMBER 2016

2.Accounting policies (continued)

 
2.8

Current and deferred taxation

The tax expense for the period comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the Statement of comprehensive income, 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 operates and generates 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.

 
2.9

Exceptional items

Exceptional items are transactions that fall outside the ordinary activities of the Company but are presented separately due to their size or incidence.

 
2.10

Intangible assets

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the difference between amounts paid on the cost of a business combination and the acquirer’s interest in the fair value of its identifiable assets and liabilities of the acquiree at the date of acquisition. Subsequent to initial recognition, goodwill is measured at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses. Goodwill is amortised on a straight line basis to the Statement of comprehensive income over its useful economic life.

Other 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.

 
2.11

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.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 22 DECEMBER 2016

2.Accounting policies (continued)


2.11
Tangible fixed assets (continued)

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:

Freehold property
-
1% on cost
Fixtures and fittings
-
7.5 - 33% on cost

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 the Statement of comprehensive income.

 
2.12

Revaluation of tangible fixed assets

Individual freehold and leasehold properties are carried at current year value at fair value at the date of the revaluation less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and subsequent accumulated impairment losses. Revaluations are undertaken with sufficient regularity to ensure the carrying amount does not differ materially from that which would be determined using fair value at the Balance sheet date.
Fair values are determined from market based evidence normally undertaken by professionally qualified valuers.

Revaluation gains and losses are recognised in the Statement of comprehensive income unless losses exceed the previously recognised gains or reflect a clear consumption of economic benefits, in which case the excess losses are recognised in profit or loss.

 
2.13

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.

 
2.14

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.

 
2.15

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.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 22 DECEMBER 2016

2.Accounting policies (continued)

 
2.16

Provisions for liabilities

Provisions are made where an event has taken place that gives the Company 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 the Statement of comprehensive income in the year that the Company 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.

 
2.17

Financial instruments

The Company 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 non-puttable ordinary shares.

 
2.18

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. Dividends on shares recognised as liabilities are recognised as expenses and classified within interest payable.


3.


Judgments in applying accounting policies and key sources of estimation uncertainty

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with UK GAAP requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of policies and reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expenses.  
Estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and various other factors, including expectations of future events, and are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. The results of which form the basis of making the judgments about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. 
The areas involving a higher degree of judgment or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the financial statements include freehold properties, carried at fair value at the balance sheet date based on open market value, and the carrying value of goodwill which is amortised over a period estimated to be 20 years from date of acquisition. 
The directors consider that there are no other material estimations or significant judgment.


4.


Turnover

The total turnover of the company has been derived from its principal activity wholly undertaken in the United Kingdom.
