STRATEGIC REPORT |
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2018 |
The director presents his Strategic Report for the year ended 31 July 2018. |
REVIEW OF BUSINESS |
The company's principal activity is the creation of meaningful brand experiences for its clients across the |
globe. The company's work spans strategy and branding, content and video, branded environments, |
exhibitions and tradeshows, live events and event technology. The company created and delivered over 180 |
brand experiences on behalf of clients in the year ended 31st July 2018, working across every continent |
worldwide. |
For the eighth successive year, the company continued to grow its gross profit, being up 50.9% (2017: |
+4.6%%) whilst increasing turnover by 49.3% (2017: +4.2%) to £22,786,936. Continued tight control of the |
company's supply chain helped drive the gross profit result for the year. |
The combined turnover by event location which shows a well diversified client base, for the company and its |
associate 2heads Design Inc, was: |
2018 | 2017 |
£ | £ |
United Kingdom | 6,374,033 | 2,062,574 |
Europe | 9,450,289 | 9,291,572 |
USA and South America | 5,800,310 | 4,627,550 |
Asia and ROW | 1,875,024 | 641,039 |
Middle East | 857,050 | 328,941 |
Total | 24,356,706 | 16,951,677 |
£1,569,770 (2017 - £1,691,736) of income is in relation to 2heads Design Inc. |
Alongside our strong growth, last year also saw 2Heads continue to reinforce our position as the experiential |
agency of choice for leading global brands. Outstanding work for clients including Disney, Airbus and |
Playtech continues to help ambitious businesses establish and shore up competitive advantage in difficult |
markets. |
As an agency, our offer continues to be powered by our core promise of 'meaningful experiences'. In reality, |
activating this promise means consistent focus on three strategic pillars. The first is developing content and |
digital innovation that helps brands build credible, relevant and distinct associations with their audiences. |
This is enhanced by our second strategic pillar - namely ongoing investment into technology-powered |
innovation that enhances the brand experience at every turn. Finally, as even the best strategy is only as |
good as our ability to execute, the third pillar involves continuing to build the reputation for outstanding |
security, delivery and trust that we have cultivated over 30 years. |
This continued focus on earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation amounted to |
£2,101,389 (2017 - £1,369,227). |
The company measures both financial and non-financial key performance indicators (KPIs) to monitor its |
performance. The key financial KPIs include: |
2018 | 2017 |
£ | £ |
Gross profit | 7,193,096 | 4,766,871 |
Gross profit percentage | 31.6% | 31.2% |
Operating profit | 1,975,639 | 1,233,963 |
Operating profit percentage | 8.7% | 8.1% |
Net current assets | 4,326,381 | 2,948,975 |

STRATEGIC REPORT |
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2018 |
PRINCIPAL RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES |
The principal risks facing the company include the uncertain global economic climate which can potentially |
affect customers. The director and senior management monitor and review the performance of the company |
using, amongst other metrics, the financial KPIs outlined in the previous section of this report. |
The company's activities expose it to several financial risks that are inherent within its global market place |
such as cashflow risk and credit risk. |
The company's activities make it susceptible to the financial risk of changes in foreign currency exchange |
rates which in turn is a risk to cashflow. The company manages this risk by currency hedging and continues |
to monitor potential exposure in this area. |
The company's main financial assets are cash, trade receivables and amounts owed by related |
undertakings. Therefore the company's main credit risk is attributable to its trade receivables and amounts |
owed by related undertakings. These amounts are stated in the Balance Sheet at their net realisable value |
and no provisions or impairment were required in this or the previous financial year. An impairment would |
be made where there is an identified loss event which had an effect on the recoverability of the asset. |
The company has no significant credit risk exposure as a result of rigorous credit control policies and |
because the receivables balance is spread over a variety of clients. |
FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS |
The company operates on a day to day basis with working capital facilities including cash and hire purchase |
facilities. The company does not utilise any long or short term debt instruments. The company does not use |
financial instruments in its day to day operations or financing. |
ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD: |
2 HEADS GLOBAL DESIGN LIMITED (REGISTERED NUMBER: 02004364) |
REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR |
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2018 |
The director presents his report with the financial statements of the company for the year ended 31 July 2018. |
DIVIDENDS |
No interim dividend was paid during the year. The director recommends a final dividend of share. |
The total distribution of dividends for the year ended 31 July 2018 will be £ |
FUTURE DEVELOPMENTS |
The director expects the company to continue its annual growth trend as a result of net new client wins, |
retention and growth of existing clients, rigorous supply chain control and further investment in the senior |
management team with strategic hires. The company continues to develop its in-house technology |
solutions for clients which provide invaluable key analytics to aid clients in their business development and |
brand experience strategies. |
DIRECTOR |
DISABLED EMPLOYEES |
The company is committed to employment practices based on equal opportunities for all employees |
irrespective of sex, race, colour, disability or marital status. The company gives full and fair consideration to |
applications for employment for disabled persons, having regard to their particular aptitudes and abilities. |
EMPLOYEE INVOLVEMENT |
Amongst other initiatives, the company periodically holds company-wide meetings to update employees on |
corporate developments. Employee involvement is encouraged as maintaining employee awareness of |
factors affecting the company continues to help drive the future success of the business. |
STATEMENT OF DIRECTOR'S RESPONSIBILITIES |
The director is responsible for preparing the 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). 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 of the profit or loss of the company 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 transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the |
company 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 hence for taking reasonable steps for the |
prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. |

REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR |
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2018 |
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 company'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 company's auditors are aware of that information. |
ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD: |
REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF |
2 HEADS GLOBAL DESIGN LIMITED |
Opinion |
We have audited the financial statements of 2 Heads Global Design Limited (the 'company') for the year |
ended 31 July 2018 which comprise the Income Statement, Other Comprehensive Income, Balance Sheet, |
Statement of Changes in Equity, Cash Flow Statement and Notes to the Cash Flow Statement, 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 company's affairs as at 31 July 2018 and of its 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 |
company 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 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. |
Other information |
The director is responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information in the |
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, 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. |
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 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 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 |
2 HEADS GLOBAL DESIGN LIMITED |
Matters on which we are required to report by exception |
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 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, 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 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 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 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. |

company and do not contain consolidated financial information as the parent of a group. The |

amount receivable for services rendered, excluding Value Added Tax (VAT). |
The company recognises revenue by reference to the stage of completion and as detailed below: |
i. Sale of services |
The company creates and delivers meaningful client experiences and related products. Revenue is |

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - continued |
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2018 |
3. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued |
Work in progress |
Work in progress is valued on the basis of direct costs plus attributable overheads based on normal |
level of activity. Provision is made for any foreseeable losses where appropriate. No element of |
profit is included in the valuation of work in progress. |
Taxation |
Taxation for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the Income Statement, |
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. |
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. |
Foreign currencies |
The company's functional and presentation currency is pounds sterling. |
Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the spot exchange |
rates at the dates of the transactions. |
At each period end foreign currency monetary items are translated using the closing rate. |
Foreign exchange gains and losses 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 Income Statement. |

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2018 |
3. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued |
Hire purchase and leasing commitments |
At inception the company assesses agreements that transfer the right to use assets. The assessment |
considers whether the arrangement is, or contains, a lease based on the substance of the agreement. |
i. Finance leased assets |
Leases of assets that transfer substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership are |
classified as finance leases. |
Finance leases are capitalised at commencement of the lease as assets at the fair value of the |
leased asset or, if lower, the present value of the minimum lease payments calculated using the |
interest rate implicit in the lease. Where the implicit rate cannot be determined the company's |
incremental borrowing rate is used. |
The capital element of lease obligations is recorded as a liability on inception of the agreement. |
Lease payments are apportioned between capital repayment and finance charge, using the effective |
interest rate method, to produce a constant rate of charge on the balance of the capital repayments |
outstanding. |
ii. Operating leased assets |
Leases that do not transfer all the risks and rewards of ownership are classified as operating leases. |
Payments under operating leases are charged to the Income Statement on a straight line basis over |
the period of the lease. |
iii. Lease incentives |
Incentives received to enter into an operating lease are credited to the Income Statement, to reduce |
the lease expense, on a straight line basis over the period of the lease. |
Employee benefits |
The company provides a range of benefits to employees, including annual bonus arrangements and |
defined contribution pension plans. |
i. Short term benefits |
Short term benefits, including holiday pay, are recognised as an expense in the period in which the |
service is received. |
ii. Defined contribution pension plans |
The company operates a defined contribution plan for its employees. A defined contribution plan is a |
pension plan under which the company pays fixed contributions into a separate entity. Once the |
contributions have been paid the company has no further payment obligations. The contributions are |
recognised as an expense when they are due. Amounts not paid are shown in accruals in the balance |
sheet. The assets of the plan are held separately from the company in independently administered |
funds. |
iii. Annual bonus plan |
The company operates an annual bonus plan for employees. An expense is recognised in the profit |
and loss accounts when the company has a legal or constructive obligation to make payments under |
the plan as a result of past events and a reliable estimate of the obligation can be made. |

Financial instruments |
The company has chosen to adopt sections 11 and 12 of FRS 102 in respect of financial instruments. |
i. Financial assets |
Basic financial assets, including trade and other receivables, cash and bank balances are initially |
recognised at transaction price. |
At the end of the reporting period financial assets measured at amortised cost are assessed for |
objective evidence of impairment. If an asset is impaired the impairment loss is the difference |
between the carrying amount and the present value of the estimated cash flows discounted at the |
asset's original effective interest rate. The impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss. |
If there is a decrease in the impairment loss arising from an event occurring after the impairment was |
recognised the impairment is reversed. The reversal is such that the carrying amount does not |
exceed what the carrying amount would have been had the impairment not previously been |
recognised. The impairment reversal is recognised in profit or loss. |
Financial assets are derecognised when (a) the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset |
expire or are settled, or (b) substantially all the risks and rewards of the ownership of the asset are |
transferred to another party or (c) control of the asset has been transferred to another party who has |
the practical ability to unilaterally sell the asset to an unrelated third party without imposing additional |
restrictions. |
ii. Financial liabilities |
Basic financial liabilities, including trade and other payables, bank loans, loans from fellow group |
companies are initially recognised at transaction price. |
Trade payables are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary |
course of business from suppliers. Accounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is |
due within one year or less, if not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade payables are |
recognised initially at transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the |
effective interest method. |
Financial liabilities are derecognised when the liability is extinguished, that is when the contractual |
obligation is discharged, cancelled or expires. |
