STRATEGIC REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020
The directors present their strategic report for Chapman Freeborn Airchartering Limited for the year ended 31 December 2020.
The Company continued its principal activity of air charter brokerage throughout the current year.
We aim to present a balanced and comprehensive review of the development and performance of our business during the year and its position at the year end. Our review is consistent with the size and non-complex nature of our business and is written in the context of the risks and uncertainties we face.
As reported in the Company's profit and loss account, revenue has shown an increase from £50.6m to £77.8m. The increase in revenue is a result of our Cargo department winning additional contracts in 2020.
The change in customer mix arising from the impact of the Covid pandemic has resulted in a slight change in the overall gross margin percentage for the year but with administrative expenses remaining fairly constant, the net profit before tax has increased to £2.4m from £0.4m.
The balance sheet show that the company's net assets at the year end has increased from £9.2m to £11.4m.

STRATEGIC REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020
Management continually monitor the key risks facing the group together with assessing the controls used for managing these risks. The board of directors formally reviews and documents the principal risks facing the business at least annually.
The principal risks and uncertainties facing the group are as follows: • Environmental and market – air charter broking can be materially impacted by changes in global economies, political instability, natural events and supply chain mechanics affecting the movement of cargo and passengers. The group manages exposure by constantly monitoring global events, constant communication with customer needs and regular liaising with current and potential suppliers; • Competitor pressure – the market in which the group operates is highly competitive with low barriers to entry. The group manages the risk by maintaining strong relationship with its key customers; • Variety of financial risks – the group’s operations expose it to several financial risks including the effects of changes in foreign exchange rates, credit risk, liquidity risk and interest rate risk, all of which are monitored, and strategies adopted on a regular basis; • Strategic risk – the group’s growth strategy is of complementary acquisitions, with a focus on increasing managed capacity through access to aircraft from our parent group or adding directly to our fellow subsidiaries capabilities.
Key performance indicators
Management use a range of performance measures to monitor and manage the business. The performance measures are split into financial and non-financial key performance indicators as set out below: Profit ratios: Gross profit margin Liquidity ratios: Working capital on total assets Non-financial Staff turnover, market share, customer retention

DIRECTORS' RESPONSIBILITIES STATEMENT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020
The directors are responsible for preparing the Strategic Report, the Directors' Report and the
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 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 for the Company'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 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 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 hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF CHAPMAN FREEBORN AIRCHARTERING LIMITED
We have audited the financial statements of Chapman Freeborn Airchartering Limited (the 'Company') for the year ended 31 December 2020, which comprise the Statement of Comprehensive Income, the Balance Sheet, the 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 Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the United Kingdom, including the Financial Reporting Council's Ethical Standard and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.
Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.
Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the directors with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF CHAPMAN FREEBORN AIRCHARTERING LIMITED (CONTINUED)
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 Auditors' 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.
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 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 Strategic Report and the Directors' Report have been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.
In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the Company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Strategic Report or the Directors' Report.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF CHAPMAN FREEBORN AIRCHARTERING LIMITED (CONTINUED)
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an Auditors' Report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.
Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below:
We obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory frameworks applicable to the company and the sector in which it operates. We determined that the following laws and regulations were most significant: the Companies Act 2006 and UK corporate taxation laws. We obtained an understanding of how the company are complying with those legal and regulatory frameworks by making inquiries to the management and the company’s head of legal department. We corroborated our inquiries through our review of documentation generated by the legal department. We assessed the susceptibility of the company’s financial statements to material misstatement, including how fraud might occur. Audit procedures performed by the audit engagement team included: • Identifying and assessing the design effectiveness of controls management has in place to prevent and detect fraud • Understanding how those charged with governance considered and addressed the potential for override of controls or other inappropriate influence over the financial reporting process. • Challenging assumptions and judgements made by management in its significant accounting estimates • Identifying and testing journal entries, in particular any unusual journal entries posted around the year-end and journal entries posted by infrequent system users; and • Assessing the extent of compliance with the relevant laws and regulations
A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council's website at:
