GROUP STRATEGIC REPORT
for the Year Ended 31st December 2017


The director presents his strategic report of the company and the group for the year ended 31st December 2017.

REVIEW OF BUSINESS
Tokyo Group is the parent company of Tokyo Industries, operators of 36 of the UKs coolest bars, music venues and
festivals. We believe music should feel personal & independent and we've never really followed that 'cookie cutter' roll
out model. Instead we chose individual venues in truly great buildings each with their own style, personality and their
own reflection of local music requirements. This deliberate process keeps us fresh, boutique and musically savvy, whilst
enjoying the back office synergy and group purchasing power of a national group.

In doing so, we chose the parent company to remain relatively silent and allow the individual brands to carry the
profile and creativity, meaning that often our venues are better known than the company structure behind them. Our
UK estate includes some of the most well known music venues in the UK, from DIGITAL Newcastle (voted 11th Best
club in the World) to FIBBERS York (one the the UKs most loved grass roots Tokyo Group is the parent company of

In doing so, we chose the parent company to remain relatively silent and allow the individual brands to carry the
profile and creativity, meaning that often our venues are better known than the company structure behind them. Our
UK estate includes some of the most well known music venues in the UK, from DIGITAL Newcastle (voted 11th Best
club in the World) to FIBBERS York (one the the UKs most loved grass roots live music venues to FACTORY251 in
Manchester (set in the former Factory Records Head office) and CHURCH Leeds (set in an incredible 1820s Church). We
also operate large format festivals from www.LostVillageFestival.com in Lincolnshire to
www.LiveFromTimesSquare.com in Newcastle. The Festival market in the UK is evolving and its something we are keen
to evolve with.

A logical expansion for the group has been international events including collaborating with Cirque du Soleil and
Michelin chief Ferran Adriá on a concept called Boogie in Wonderland at the exclusive HEART Club in Ibiza. An
immersive 'Fashion meets Art meets Food meets Music'. It is very much targeted towards a higher end of clientele on
the island and has already attracted a loyal following having operated again this year.

We continue to invest in our existing UK estate to keep our venues fresh and technologically advanced. The majority of
our UK estate is primarily student focused and we are continuingly seeing the challenging impact of increased student
fees and abolition of maintenance grants. Too often price promotions are needed to compete locally and we negotiate
robustly with suppliers in an attempt to maintain our margin. It should be recognised that our Oldham venue remains
closed. Since the installation of the new MetroLink tram system the local market has seen a substantial decline as it has
become much cheaper to travel into Manchester where there is much more choice. To stem the operating losses we
elected to close the venue last year and we continue to consider our options for this site.

We pride ourselves on operating a lean and efficient head office structure and we continue to explore new
technologies and systems that allow us to operate more effectively. We have restructured our sales and marketing
team and have decentralised the function so we can be more nimble and reactive to local markets. We have also
diverted much of our marketing spends towards online and social media to reflect the behaviours of our customers.
We regularly experiment with different types of marketing initiatives and media to ensure resources are used as
effectively as possible.

GROUP STRATEGIC REPORT
for the Year Ended 31st December 2017

FINANCIAL RESULTS
2017 2016 Variance Variance
£ £ £ %

Turnover 4,750,362 4,750,362 (303,486 ) (6% )
Gross profit 3,907,423 3,907,423 (253,439 ) (6% )

EBITDA 1,162,792 1,162,792 218,454 19%

The group has delivered another strong set of financial results in what continues to be a challenging and competitive
market place.

It should be noted that Tokyo Group represents only 4 venues (3 trading) of the overall trading estate and further
results can be viewed via the statutory accounts filed under their separate operating companies Tokyo Industries
(Ultimate) Ltd, FAC251 Ltd, Tokyo Industries (Lincoln York Hull) Ltd, Tokyo Industries (Bradford) Ltd, Tokyo Industries
(Leeds) Ltd, Stein Bierkeller Ltd, Brewhaus Ltd & Tiki-O (Bradford) Ltd.

This operating companies turnover is £4.4m which represents a decrease of £303k (6%) decrease year-on-year. One of
the main reasons for the drop in turnover is that we changed our business model for Boogie in Wonderland in Ibiza
from an fully service delivery to a management model with the club covering costs but maintaining admission income
to minimise financial risk & local currency impact. This has been a resounding success and allowed us to maintain a
high profile presence on the island without the requisite cost base. Despite the overall drop in events for the group
(22% due in part to Ibiza) average attendances per session were 795 versus 680 which represent a substantial increase
of 17%. Spends per head were increased by 1% to £11.74 versus £11.67 in the previous year. This is largely attributable
to Digital Newcastle which continues to dominate the local market despite increased competition.

Overall Gross profit margin was 82% versus prior year of 82%. Direct costs and overheads continue to be well
controlled with the majority of areas recognising savings year-on-year despite the impact of the national minimum
wage and business rates hikes. This is further illustrated by the 6% decrease in administrative expenses year-on-year
which is entirely attributable to headcount savings in the area of operations & marketing.

EBITDA was £1.38m versus a profit of £1.16m in prior year. This was primarily due to overhead savings, improved
trading performance at Digital Newcastle and the new financial structure for our Boogie in Wonderland project.

We continue to focus on some exciting international developments for the forthcoming year including a live music &
events space in Los Angeles and a Croatian private island resort 'Obonjan Island'. It remains a firm objective of ours to
further diversify the group so we are not entirely invested in one particular territory or industry.

Aaron Mellor, the Groups Managing Director, is pleased with the results and continues to look for further opportunities
to expand the estate should the right opportunities present themselves. Aaron Mellor comments "These are exciting
times for our industry, as music and entertainment become a more 'on-demand' service we need to give guests a more
immersive production led experience, this is something we are really enjoying and our new 2018 projects are some of
the best works we have ever created".

TOKYO GROUP LIMITED AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES (REGISTERED NUMBER: 06462216)

REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR
for the Year Ended 31st December 2017


The director presents his report with the financial statements of the company and the group for the year ended
31st December 2017.

DIVIDENDS
The directors recommend that no final dividends be paid.

The total distribution of dividends for the year ended 31st December 2017 will be nil (2016 - £100,000).

DIRECTOR
A Mellor held office during the whole of the period from 1st January 2017 to the date of this report.

DISCLOSURE IN THE STRATEGIC REPORT
The Company has chosen, in accordance with Section 414 C(ii) of the Companies Act 2006, and as noted in this
Directors’ report, to include certain matters in its Strategic report that would otherwise be required to be disclosed in
this Directors’ report.

STATEMENT OF DIRECTOR'S RESPONSIBILITIES
The director is responsible for preparing the Group Strategic Report, the Report of the Director and the financial
statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations.

Company law requires the director to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law the director
has 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 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 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 director is responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the
company's and the group's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the
company and the group and enable him to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006.
He 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.

STATEMENT AS TO DISCLOSURE OF INFORMATION TO AUDITORS
So far as the director is aware, there is no relevant audit information (as defined by Section 418 of the Companies Act
2006) of which the group's auditors are unaware, and he 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 group's auditors are
aware of that information.

TOKYO GROUP LIMITED AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES (REGISTERED NUMBER: 06462216)

REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR
for the Year Ended 31st December 2017


AUDITORS
Under section 487(2) of the Companies Act 2006 KAY JOHNSON GEE LLP, will be deemed to have been reappointed as
auditors 28 days after these financial statements were sent to members or 28 days after the latest date prescribed for
filing the accounts with the registrar, whichever is earlier.

ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD:





A Mellor - Director


11th September 2018

REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF
TOKYO GROUP LIMITED AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES


Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of Tokyo Group Limited and its Subsidiaries (the 'parent company') and its
subsidiaries (the 'group') for the year ended 31st December 2017 which comprise the Consolidated Statement of
Comprehensive Income, Consolidated Balance Sheet, Company Balance Sheet, Consolidated Statement of Changes in
Equity, Company Statement of Changes in Equity, Consolidated Cash Flow Statement and 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 group's and of the parent company affairs as at 31st December 2017 and
of the group's 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 group 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 director's use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is not
appropriate; or
- the director has not disclosed in the financial statements any identified material uncertainties that may cast
significant doubt about the group'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 director is responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information in the Group
Strategic Report and the Report of the Director, 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 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, 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 Group Strategic Report and the Report of the Director for the financial year for which
the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and
- the Group Strategic Report and the Report of the Director have been prepared in accordance with applicable legal
requirements.

REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF
TOKYO GROUP LIMITED AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES


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

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 by the parent company, or returns adequate for our audit have
not been received from branches not visited by us; or
- the parent company financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or
- certain disclosures of director's remuneration specified by law are not made; or
- we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit.

Responsibilities of director
As explained more fully in the Statement of Director's Responsibilities set out on page four, 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 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 has 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.

registration number 06462216. The address of the registered office is 1 City Road East, Manchester, M15 4PN.
The principal place of business is Suite 12, 2nd Floor, UCB House, 3 George Street, Watford, WD18 0BX.

2. 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.

The financial statements consolidate the accounts of Tokyo Group Limited and all of its subsidiary undertakings.
The results of subsidiaries acquired during the year are included from the effective acquisition date.

Related party exemption
The company has taken advantage of exemption, under the terms of Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The
Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland', not to disclose related party
transactions with wholly owned subsidiaries within the group.

Transactions between group entities which have been eliminated on consolidation are not disclosed within the
financial statements.

Significant judgements and estimates
In the application of the Group's accounting policies, management is required to make judgements, estimates
and assumptions about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other
sources. The estimates and underlying 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 if the revision affects only that period, or in the
period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.

Turnover
Turnover represents amounts recognised by the company in respect of goods and services supplied, exclusive
of Value Added Tax and trade discounts. Revenue principally consists of food, drink, admission charges, retro
discounts, management charges, which are recognised at the point of which the goods or services are provided,
rental income which is recognised on a straight line basis over the lease term, machine income, where net
takings are recognised as earned and retro income, which is measured at the fair value of the consideration
received or receivable.

Goodwill
Goodwill arising on the acquisition of subsidiary undertakings and businesses, representing any excess of the
fair value of the consideration given over the fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities acquired, is
capitalised and written off on a straight line basis over its useful economic life, which is 10 years. Provision is
made for any impairment.

Negative goodwill is similarly included in the balance sheet and is credited to the profit or loss account in the
periods in which the acquired non-monetary assets are recovered through depreciation or sale. Negative
goodwill in excess of the fair values of the non-monetary assets acquired is credited to the profit or loss account
in the periods expected to benefit.

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

Tangible fixed assets
Tangible fixed assets are stated at cost or valuation less accumulated depreciation and accumulated
impairment losses.

Where parts of an item of tangible fixed assets have different useful lives, they are accounted for as separate
items of tangible fixed assets, for example land is treated separately from buildings.

The group assesses at each reporting date whether tangible fixed assets are impaired.

Depreciation on tangible fixed assets is charged to the profit and loss so as to write off their value, over their
estimated useful lives, using the following methods:

Long leasehold - 2% straight line
Fixtures and fittings - 15% straight line
Motor vehicles - 25% straight line
Computer equipment - 15% straight line

Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed if there is an indication of a significant
change since the last annual reporting date in the pattern by which the company expects to consume an asset's
future economic benefits.

Stocks
Stocks are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Costs are based on the method most appropriate
to the type of inventory class, but usually on a first-in-first-out basis. Net realisable value is based on the
estimated selling price less any estimated completion or selling costs.

When stocks are sold, the carrying amount of these stocks are recognised as an expense in the period in which
the related revenue is recognised. The amount of any write-down in 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.

Financial instruments
Financial instruments are classified and accounted for. according to the substance of the contractual
arrangement, as financial assets, financial liabilities or equity instruments. An equity instrument is any contact
that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the company after deducting all of its liabilities.

Taxation
Taxation for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the Consolidated Statement of
Comprehensive Income, 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.

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued
Deferred 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.

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.

Trade and other debtors/creditors
Trade and other debtors are recognised initially at transaction price less attributable transaction costs. Trade
and other creditors are recognised initially at transaction price plus attributable transaction costs. Subsequent
to initial recognition they are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any
impairment losses in the case of trade debtors.

Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash at bank and in hand.
