Hydro Hotel, Eastbourne, Plc
("Hydro Hotel" or the "Company")
Interim Results for the Half Year ended 30 April 2021
YOUR CHAIRMAN'S LETTER
Dear Shareholder,
SIX MONTHS TO 30 APRIL 2021
I report on the company's results for the six months to 30 April 2021, which
reflect the ongoing impact of the Coronavirus pandemic on our business. In
accordance with the Government lockdown measures, the hotel was required to
close from 5 November 2020 to 2 December 2020. The hotel reopened with Tier
restrictions being applied from that date up to 5 January 2021. A further
lockdown was introduced from 6 January 2021 up until the 8 March 2021. The
hotel was able to serve customers outdoors from 12 April 2021, but the hotel
was not allowed to open for guests to stay until 17 May 2021, but with
restrictions. These restrictions are now expected to end on 19 July 2021.
The total turnover for the six-month period to 30 April 2021 was £185,579
compared to £1,177,033 for the same period the previous year, a decrease of
84.23% (compared to a decrease in the six months to 30 April 2020 of 24.24%).
The gross profit percentage for the period was 0.72% lower than in the six
months to 30 April 2020 and staff costs (excluding grants received for the
Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme) decreased by 36.1% compared to the figure for
the period to 30 April 2020 (4.8% increase in the half year to 30 April 2020).
Overheads decreased by 34.66% (10.93% decrease in the half year ended 30 April
2020).
Advantage was taken during the periods of closure to refurbish some bathrooms
with walk in showers, to refresh the decoration of bedrooms and to commence
repairs to some of the roof areas.
There is an increase in the loss for the half year to 30 April 2021 to £383,183
compared to £276,850 for the half year to 30 April 2020.
The Board and the management of the company in monitoring cash resources have
reviewed and taken advantage of appropriate sources of finance available from
both central and local Government.
All action required, by Government and the relevant guidance issued, has been
taken to enable the hotel to re-open fully for business on 19 July 2021.
The Board wishes to express its thanks to the management and staff of the hotel
for their co-operation and efforts during these exceptional circumstances and
the Hydro team look forward to welcoming new and returning guests in this our
126th year of operation.
Yours sincerely,
Graeme C King, MA, CA

NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS
1 The results are prepared on the basis of the accounting policies set out in the
Company's Annual Report and Accounts for the year ended 31 October 2020.
At the date of this report, there exists considerable uncertainty regarding the
potential impact of the Coronavirus and the economic consequences, both within
the U.K. and overseas, which may result from government policies to contain the
spread. The duration and geographical extent of any possible lockdown or future
government policies are unknown. Whilst we are unable to predict what the
economic consequences may be and the impact on the company's future ability to
continue trading, we have continued to use the going concern basis as
appropriate in the preparation of these accounts.
2 The earnings per share are based on a loss of £383,183 (2020 loss £276,850)
being the loss on ordinary activities after taxation.
3 The movement in retained Profit and loss Reserves and Revaluation Reserves from
£2,697,576 at 31 October 2020 to £2,314,393 at 30 April 2021 includes the loss
for the period and dividends of £Nil (2020: £54,000 paid in the period and £Nil
accrued).
4 No dividends were paid in the period and no accrual is included in creditors,
amounts falling due within one year as at 30 April 2021 (2020: £Nil accrued).
5 A copy of the interim report and accounts and the Chairman's statement thereto,
which were approved by the Board of Directors on 13 July 2021, will be posted
to all registered shareholders shortly thereafter.
6 The financial information set out above does not constitute statutory accounts
