GROUP STRATEGIC REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 APRIL 2020
The directors present their strategic report on the Group for the year ended 30 April 2020.
J. Barbour & Sons, Ltd is a global lifestyle brand whose principal activity is to design, manufacture, licence and distribute clothing and accessories. J. Barbour & Sons, Limited owns subsidiary companies and details of those are shown in the notes to the financial statements. The group operates through the main revenue channels of wholesale, retail, ecommerce and licensing. Founded in 1894, by John Barbour, in South Shields in the North East of England, the company supplied oilskins and other garments to protect the growing community of sailors, fishermen and dockers. Since then, Barbour has continued to thrive on the unique values of the British countryside and offers a full range of wardrobe essentials.
Barbour distributes under three brands, Barbour, Barbour International and Barbour Beacon. The Barbour brand, known for its true heritage and country lifestyle, continues to grow and is widely recognised globally for its signature branding, clothing, footwear and accessories. Barbour International, introduced in 1936 by Duncan Barbour and famously worn by Steve McQueen during the International Six Day Trials in 1964, continues to enjoy its long and rich motorcycling heritage. Inspired by the biker look and available across both men’s and women’s ranges, it continues to grow in popularity and has inspired many followers. Barbour Beacon which was launched successfully in 2018, built upon the core roots of the Barbour brand, diversifying the offering through the lens of a slightly younger consumer group.
The impact of COVID-19 was significant during the final quarter, and despite revenues showing progress, overall group performance was down compared to prior year. Our strategy remains clear, focussing on the long term vision of being recognised as the leading British global lifestyle brand with distribution channels via wholesale, retail, ecommerce and licensing.
The business continues to operate in the UK with wholly owned subsidiaries based in Germany and the United States of America. Exclusive, established distributors are partnered with to access other major markets globally. In financial year 2019-20 revenues increased by £17.6m. The positivity of this result rests on the strength of our brands and consistency of our long-term strategic focus despite a backdrop of unparallel global uncertainty. Growth was across all of our brands, and across much of the product portfolio despite continued major challenges on the high street and intense competition in the marketplace, demonstrated in the gross profit decrease of £2.1m. Operating profit also decreased by £3.3m, again impacted by COVID-19 as well as the relentless pressure on margins and costs. The profit figure of £28.5m represents a steady performance, supporting our financial resilience and ability to navigate the sustained challenges of foreign exchange. Now more than ever our focus on overhead cost control is very high, while we strive to deliver excellent products complemented by engaging consumer campaigns as well as our unwavering commitment to excellence in customer experience. The group balance sheet remains strong, with cash held in the business increasing to £97.4m (2019: £87.2m) enabling us to focus on our long-term objectives, investing for the future sustainability of our brands and our business. Never has it been more important to the business than in the global COVID-19 pandemic crisis and the huge challenge it poses.

GROUP STRATEGIC REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 APRIL 2020
Navigating COVID-19 is central to our focus, staying close and connected to our consumers and customers, ensuring we invest strategically for the future of our brands and products. We strive to deliver very competitive service, remain committed to the heritage and ethics of our brand, supporting sustainable recovery and growth in line with our vision and values.
Despite the current uncertainty and market contraction, we believe in the sustainable long-term growth of our business and as such we will continue to invest in our people, our systems and our service. Having implemented structural changes to prepare for Brexit, we will invest in technology and our brands to enhance further our sustainability credentials. We strongly believe there are many exciting and accessible markets around the world where our brands can add style and quality to consumers lives, as such we will continue to build relationships and expand our commercial reach and ambitions. The continuation of our selective approach to strategic product category development remains of high importance, driving product quality and brand continuity forward, the investment in which we believe will deliver relevant opportunities for the controlled recovery and growth of our business going forward.
The COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant impact on our business across all of the markets in which we operate. The recovery from this will take time and we are committed to providing a consistent and supportive offering to our consumer, listening to the changes in consumer demand. Our strategy remains focussed on long-term recovery and then growth, being true to our ethics and values and the heritage of our brands.
The EEA remains a significant market, with well-established partnerships, brands and consumer relationships. We plan to continue to invest and grow in this key market over the long-term. Brexit remains a source of considerable uncertainty, as such the implementation of a customs warehouse in the UK is central to the reduction of some of the expected duty headwinds we expect to face. We continue to review legal entity compliance and structure to ensure we trade without interruption, investing to protect service to our customers and consumers. We will continue to monitor the situation closely; ensure we communicate clearly and regularly with our customers and suppliers and, if appropriate, will take steps to invest in longer term sustainable solutions pending the final detailed outcome of Brexit negotiations. Other principal risks monitored include: • Continued consumer demand. The group's ongoing strategy includes long-term growth in international markets as well as new product introduction and innovation in the EEA; • Currency exposure fluctuations. The group operates in Sterling, Euro and Dollars and where possible we try to minimise the risk by natural hedging. Given the continued weak Sterling the group will endeavour to manage currency as closely as possible; • Cost increases to facilities, raw materials, payroll and property. We continue to review and refine supplier relationships in all areas of the business and forward contract purchases where possible to mitigate risk and protect supply and quality; • Brand Protection. We engage a protective strategy relating to the brand and its trademarks and actively engage to counteract any exposure to fraudulent activity globally; • Credit exposure is very tightly monitored and although some trading relationships may have been set up for many years, we continue to monitor the exposure before releasing goods to customers; and • Due to the seasonality of the business, and the obvious challenges of COVID-19, cash flow is monitored closely to enable the trade cycle to continue to operate smoothly and independently.

GROUP STRATEGIC REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 APRIL 2020
The group regularly reports on and analyses a number of KPI's to monitor the financial performance of the business. The indicators are focused on the performance and stability of the business and are reviewed and set by the board to be in line with the vision and long term growth plan of the business.
The principal key performance indicators used refer to overall sales growth, profitability and trading stability and include: • Turnover increased from £225.1m to £242.8m, an increase of 7.8%; • Gross Profit % decreased to 49.4% (2019: 54.2%); • Operating Profit % decreased to 14.5% (2019: 17.1%); • Cash (excluding short term investments) increased to £97.4m (2019: £87.2m); and • Stocks increased to £38.8m (2019: £36.4m) - Impacted primarily by the COVID-19 pandemic. The KPI’s show a steady performance across the group with increases in turnover, offset by the impact of foreign exchange, margin competition in market and the COVID-19 global impact.
Other key performance indicators also include employee engagement in the workplace. Barbour undertakes employee surveys to ensure the employees are trained and actively engaged with their role at Barbour with any development, team management and barriers addressed. The survey completed in December 2018 showed positive improvement in key areas across the group, such as active engagement had increased 3.6% while active disengagement reduced by 5.0%. The next survey is planned for December 2020.
The board of directors believe, in good faith, that they have acted both individually and collectively in accordance with the requirements of Section 172 of the Companies Act 2006, thus most likely to promote the success of the company for the benefit of its members as a whole.
Long-term decision making : The directors have consistently managed the strategy and corresponding investments of the business with a view to long-term financial stability and sustainable growth, as shown in the strength and consistency of the brand offering and the balance sheet. Our people and culture : The directors invest significant time and resource into employee development and delivery. A culture of data-driven business, departmental and personal objectives structure the business activities, ensuring all employees are informed, engaged and collectively contributing the company’s success. Sustainability : The directors have invested in all three pillars of sustainability; financial, environmental and social. Continued long-term financial asset management is well-established. Investments in reducing waste, energy consumption and the use of high-quality raw materials from a socially sustainable source. Evidenced tangibly by the ISO14001 adherence and BCI Cotton membership. Partnerships : The directors throughout the value chain from supplier to wholesale distributor seek partnerships. They actively seek to establish long term relationships that are mutually beneficial, building an open and honest relationship that seeks to deliver excellent service and product to the consumer in an efficient and collaborative way. The length of partnerships in place are our supplier and customer base of evidence to this philosophy. Business conduct : The directors set high expectations on business conduct and regularly must demonstrate these high standards as privileged and proud holders of three Royal Warrants.

The directors are responsible for preparing the Group Strategic Report, the Directors' Report and the
consolidated
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 applicable law and 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'. 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 the Group and of the profit or loss of the Group for that period.
In preparing these financial statements, the directors are required to:
∙
select suitable accounting policies for the Group's financial statements and then apply them consistently;
∙
make judgments 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 directors are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the Company's and Group's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the Company and the Group and to 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 the Group and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

DIRECTORS' REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 APRIL 2020
Barbour is proud to have achieved accreditation from ISO14001 during the period, covering our UK wax cotton operations. We recognise the importance of minimising the negative impact we have on our environment in all areas of our business and are committed to making further improvements.
Barbour recognises the importance of sustainable raw materials and as such supports BCI Cotton with membership and adoption of BCI Cotton in much of its wax supply chain. The actions that we have taken include but are not restricted to: • Introducing technology to reduce printing waste, making staff aware of their printing levels and encouraging use of soft copy vs. hard copy where possible • Segregation of waste across South Shields campus is now in place with the segregation of recyclable, food and general waste across head office campus • Recycling waste packaging – both cardboard and plastic are now recycled from our warehouse operations • Embracing paperless processes in warehouse, customer services and office activities (Accounts Receivable, Accounts Payable and Picking migrated, Pay by Link) The Barbour Streamlined Energy and Carbon Reporting (SECR) summary is provided below. The period covered for the data shown is the calendar year 2019 (01/01/2019 – 31/12/2019). The methodology used to calculate carbon footprint results was the GHG Reporting Protocol – Corporate Standard. Given this is the first year of including this reporting in the Directors Report we will not be showing comparative data with 2018. The data is sourced from Barbour 2019 energy consumption for all our UK (excluding Eire) premises. In addition, the figures cover all fuels purchased for business travel. UK energy use KHW 8,479,950 Associated Greenhouse gas emissions Tonnes CO2 equivalent 1774 Intensity Ratio per employee (tCo2e) 2.33 Intensity Ratio per (£100,000 turnover) (tCo2e) 3.2 Measures taken to reduce our energy consumption during the period were: • Training – all staff have been given training in sustainability principles including the business contribution to our Carbon Footprint. The training is included in all new starter inductions. • Assessment of current state – During 2019 we conducted our ESOS Survey (Energy Savings Opportunity Scheme Regulations SI 2014/1643) . The report reviewed our current infrastructure and identified areas for improvement including lighting in the warehouse. • Company cars – the fleet options were reviewed so all new business vehicles on the scheme will be hybrid. • Lighting – we have invested heavily in new energy efficient lighting in the warehouse, with expected energy savings to be realised from 2020 onwards.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF J. BARBOUR & SONS, LIMITED
We have audited the financial statements of J. Barbour & Sons, Limited (the 'parent Company') and its subsidiaries (the 'Group') for the year ended 30 April 2020, which comprise the Group Statement of Comprehensive Income, the Group and Company Balance Sheets, the Group Statement of Cash Flows, the Group and Company Statement of Changes in Equity
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 Auditor's 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 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.
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 Group's or the parent 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.
The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Annual Report, other than the financial statements and our Auditor's Report 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.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF J. BARBOUR & SONS, LIMITED (CONTINUED)
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.
In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:
∙
the information given in the Group Strategic Report and the Directors' Report for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and
∙
the Group 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 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 Directors' Report.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF J. BARBOUR & SONS, 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 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 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.
This report is made solely to the Company's members
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 an Auditor's 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 for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

Accounting policies
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 presented in sterling which is the functional currency of 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 judgment 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:
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 Profit and Loss Account from the date on which control is obtained.

Accounting policies (continued)
A review of the Group's business activities is provided within the strategic report. In addition, the strategic report discloses the Group's principal risks and uncertainties, including exposures to competitive, legislative and financial risk. The directors' risk assessment includes consideration of the impacts of the Covid-19 pandemic and the potential effects on the Group's ability to trade successfully in the future. While the pandemic has already had a significant impact on the Group's revenue and cash flow generation from operations, especially following the enforced temporary closure of retail stores in the United Kingdom in Spring 2020, the directors consider that the effect has not been of enough significance to affect going concern, particularly as the restrictions to trade are now being eased.
The Group has considerable financial resources which have helped them manage the impact of Covid-19 on the business to date and, as a consequence of these financial resources being maintained, the directors believe that the Group is well placed to manage its business risks successfully and continue in existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason the directors continue to adopt the going concern basis of preparation for these financial statements.
Goodwill represents the difference between amounts paid on the cost of a business combination and the acquirer’s interest in the fair value of the Group's share 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 Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income over its useful economic life.
Other 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.
The estimated useful life of intangible assets is as follows:-
Goodwill - 15 years

Accounting policies (continued)
Depreciation is charged so as to allocate the cost of assets less their residual value over their estimated useful lives, using either the straight line or reducing balance method as appropriate.
Depreciation is provided on the following basis:
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.
Investments in subsidiaries are measured at cost less accumulated impairment.
Stocks are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value on a first in first out basis. Cost is calculated as a standard production cost which includes materials, direct labour and an attributable proportion of manufacturing overheads based on normal levels of activity.
At each balance sheet date, stocks are assessed for impairment and provision is made for obsolete, slow-moving or defective items where appropriate. 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.
Short term debtors are measured at transaction price, less any impairment.

Accounting policies (continued)
Current asset investments are fixed term deposits with maturity dates greater than three months from the date of inception. They are measured at amortised cost.
The Group only enters into basic financial instruments transactions that result in the recognition of financial assets and liabilities like trade and other debtors and creditors and loans from related parties.
Debt instruments (other than those wholly repayable or receivable within one year), including accounts receivable and payable, are initially measured at present value of the future cash flows and subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Debt instruments that are payable or receivable within one year, typically trade debtors and creditors, are measured, initially and subsequently, at the undiscounted amount of the cash or other consideration expected to be paid or received. Financial assets that are measured at cost and amortised cost are assessed at the end of each reporting period for objective evidence of impairment. If objective evidence of impairment is found, an impairment loss is recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income. Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount reported in the Balance Sheet when there is an 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.
Short term creditors are measured at the transaction price. Other financial liabilities are measured initially at fair value, net of transaction costs, and are measured subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
Grants of a revenue nature are recognised in the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income in the same period as the related expenditure.

Functional and presentation currency
The Group's presentational currency is GBP. The Company's functional currency is GBP. The functional currency of certain subsidiaries is the currency of the economic area in which the subsidiary operates. Transactions and balances Foreign currency transactions of the Group 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 of the Group 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. Foreign exchange gains and losses of the Group resulting from the settlement of transactions and from the translation at period-end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognised in the profit and loss account. Translation of group companies For the purpose of presenting consolidated financial statements, the assets and liabilities of the group's foreign operations are translated from their functional currency to GBP using the closing exchange rate. Income and expenses are translated using the average rate for the period, unless exchange rates fluctuated significantly during that period, in which case the exchange rates at the dates of transactions are used. Exchange differences arising on the translation of group companies are recognised in other comprehensive income.

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 the Consolidated Profit and Loss Account 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. Defined benefit pension plan The Group operates a defined benefit plan for certain employees. A defined benefit plan defines the pension benefit that the employee will receive on retirement, usually dependent upon several factors including but not limited to age, length of service and remuneration. A defined benefit plan is a pension plan that is not a defined contribution plan. The asset or liability recognised in the Balance Sheet in respect of the defined benefit plan is the present value of the defined benefit obligation at the end of the balance sheet date less the fair value of plan assets at the balance sheet date (if any) out of which the obligations are to be settled. The defined benefit obligation is calculated using the projected unit credit method. Annually the company engages independent actuaries to calculate the obligation. The present value is determined by discounting the estimated future payments using market yields on high quality corporate bonds that are denominated in sterling and that have terms approximating to the estimated period of the future payments ('discount rate'). The fair value of plan assets is measured in accordance with the FRS 102 fair value hierarchy and in accordance with the Group's policy for similarly held assets. This includes the use of appropriate valuation techniques. Actuarial gains and losses arising from experience adjustments and changes in actuarial assumptions are charged or credited to other comprehensive income. These amounts together with the return on plan assets, less amounts included in net interest, are disclosed as 'actuarial gain or loss on defined benefit schemes'. The cost of the defined benefit plan, recognised in profit or loss as employee costs, except where included in the cost of an asset, comprises: a) the increase in net pension benefit liability arising from employee service during the period; and b) the cost of plan introductions, benefit changes, curtailments and settlements. The net interest cost is calculated by applying the discount rate to the net balance of the defined benefit obligation and the fair value of plan assets. This cost is recognised in profit or loss as a 'finance expense'.

The tax expense for the period comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the Consolidated Profit and Loss Account, 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; • Any deferred tax balances are reversed if and when all conditions for retaining associated tax allowances have been met; and • They are not recognised where they relate to timing differences in respect of interests in subsidiaries and the Group can control the reversal of the timing differences and such reversal is not considered probable in the foreseeable future. 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.
Trademark applications and renewals are charged to the Profit and Loss Account.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 APRIL 2020
The value of stocks, including raw materials, work in progress and finished goods, has been reduced by a provision for slow-moving or obsolete stock. The provision applies assumptions based on the age, category and predicted future use of the stock, such that no value is carried if it is over a certain age in the case of finished goods or is not expected to be utilised in the manufacture of future seasons ranges in the case of raw materials. Defined Benefit Pension Scheme The Group has obligations to pay pension benefits to certain employees. The cost of those benefits and the present value of the obligations depend on a number of factors, including life expectancy, salary increases, asset valuations, and the discount rate used on certain investments. Estimates are required in determining the net pension obligation in the balance sheet. The assumptions reflect historical experience and current trends. Recoverability of debtors The Group makes allowances for doubtful debts based on an assessment of the recoverability of debtors. Allowances are applied to debtors where events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts may not be recoverable. Management specifically analyses historical bad debts and current economic trends when making a judgment to evaluate the adequacy of the bad debt provision. Where expectation is different from the original estimate, such difference will impact the carrying value of debtors.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 APRIL 2020
The Group operates a defined contribution pension scheme for UK employees.
The assets of the scheme are held separately from those of the Group in independently administered funds. The pension cost charge represents contributions payable by the Group to the funds and amounted to £573,822 (2019 - £247,807). Contributions totalling £66,943 (2019 - £62,803) were payable to the fund at the balance sheet date.
The Group operates a Defined Benefit Pension Scheme.
The Group previously operated two defined benefit pension schemes, the J Barbour & Sons Limited Works Pensions and Life Assurance Scheme, and the J Barbour & Sons Limited Pension Fund Scheme which were both wound up on 26 July 2018. With effect from 5 October 2017 the assets and liabilities of both Schemes were transferred to the J Barbour & Sons Limited 2015 Pension Scheme (established 27 October 2015) which has assumed liability for paying the benefits accrued in both of the former Schemes.
Both the J Barbour & Sons Limited Works Pensions and Life Assurance Scheme, and the J Barbour & Sons Limited Pension Fund Scheme were closed to new entrants from 31 May 2002. Employed members continue to accrue benefits that are linked to final pensionable salary and service at retirement (or earlier date of leaving) in the J Barbour & Sons Limited 2015 Pension Scheme. The accompanying disclosures set out below are based on calculations carried out as at 30 April 2020 by a qualified independent actuary on the J Barbour & Sons Limited 2015 Pension Scheme. The assets of the scheme are held in separate trustee-administered funds to meet long-term pension liabilities to past and present employees. The trustees of the scheme are required to act in the best interest of the scheme’s beneficiaries. The appointment of members of the trustee board is determined by the trust documentation. The liabilities of the defined benefit scheme are measured by discounting the best estimate of future cash flows to be paid out of the scheme using the projected unit method. This amount is reflected in any deficit in the balance sheet. The projected unit method is an accrued benefits valuation method in which the scheme’s liabilities make allowance for projected earnings. The liabilities set out in this note have been calculated based on the data supplied for the triennial valuation of the J Barbour & Sons Limited 2015 Pension Scheme at 30 April 2018 updated to 30 April 2020. The results of the calculations and the assumptions adopted are shown below.
