Rothschild & Co Continuation Fin
04 September 2023
Rothschild & Co Continuation Finance PLC
Half-yearly Report for the six-month period ended 30 June 2023
Interim Management Report
Summary of Important Events
Rothschild & Co Continuation Finance PLC (the "Company") is a wholly-owned subsidiary of N. M. Rothschild & Sons Limited ("NMR") and was incorporated on 30 August 2000 to operate as a finance vehicle for the benefit of NMR and its subsidiaries.
The principal activity of the Company is the raising of finance for the purpose of lending it to NMR and other companies in NMR's group (the "Group"). The Company raises finance by the issue of perpetual subordinated notes guaranteed by NMR.
Risks and Uncertainties
The principal risks of the Company are credit risk, liquidity risk and market risk. The Company follows the risk management policies of the parent undertaking, NMR.
The Company's principal risk is credit exposure to NMR, as the notes issued by the Company have been guaranteed by, and funds have been on-lent to NMR. The Company is therefore reliant on the ability of NMR to meet its obligations under these lending arrangements. NMR is exposed to current market and geopolitical headwinds but, nevertheless, has sufficient liquidity to continue to operate for the next 12 months even in the scenario where revenue is significantly reduced. Management has considered the going concern basis of preparation as outlined in note 1 to the financial statements.
This half-yearly financial report has not been audited or reviewed by the Company's auditors pursuant to the Auditing Practices Board guidance on Review of Interim Financial Information.

Notes to the Condensed Interim Financial Statements
(forming part of the Condensed Interim Financial Statements)
For the six months ended 30 June 2023
1. Basis of Preparation
The Condensed Interim Financial Statements are prepared and approved by the Directors in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting. The Condensed Interim Financial Statements are prepared under the historical cost accounting rules and should be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2022, which have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards.
The accounting policies and methods of valuation are identical to those applied in the financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2022.
Going Concern
Management has performed an assessment to determine whether there are any material uncertainties that could cast significant doubt on the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern. No significant issues have been noted. In reaching this conclusion, management considered:
- The financial impact of the uncertainty on the Company's
balance sheet;
- The Company's liquidity position based on current and
projected cash resources. The liquidity position has been
assessed taking into account the forecast liquidity of
NMR and its ability to continue to pay the interest on
the intercompany loan provided by the Company.
Based on the above assessment of the Company's financial position, the Directors have concluded that the Company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future (for a period of at least twelve months after the date that the financial statements are signed). Accordingly, they continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the annual financial statements.
Financial Risk Management
The Company follows the financial risk management policies of the parent undertaking, NMR. The key risks arising from the Company's activities involving financial instruments, which are monitored at the Group level, are as follows:
- Credit risk - the risk of loss arising from client or
counterparty default is not considered a significant risk
to the Company as all asset balances are with other group
companies as detailed in Note 12 Related Party Transactions.
- Market risk - exposure to changes in market variables
such as interest rates, currency exchange rates, equity
and debt prices is not considered significant as the terms
of financial assets substantially match those of financial
liabilities
- Liquidity risk - the risk that the Company is unable to
meet its obligations as they fall due or that it is unable
to fund its commitments is not considered significant
as the risk has been transferred to NMR. As the funds
on-lent to NMR have the same maturity dates as the notes
issued, the Company's ability to meet its obligations
in respect of notes issued by it is affected by NMR's
ability to make payments to the Company.
2. Directors' Emoluments
None of the directors received any remuneration in respect of their services to the Company during the period (2022: GBPnil).

IFRS 9 requires the EUR150,000,000 loan to be carried at fair value which as at 30 June 2023 was GBP89,372,338 (at 31 December 2022: GBP92,848,908). On an amortised cost basis, the value of the loan at 30 June 2023 would be GBP128,830,562 (at 31 December 2022: GBP133,027,075). The fair values are based on the market value of the external debt securities (level 2).
The interest rate charged on the EUR150 million loan is EUR-TEC10-CNO plus 36 basis points, capped at 9.01% fixed on 05 February, 05 May, 05 August and 05 November each year. The interest rate on the above loan at 30 June 2023 was 3.18% (31 December 2022: 3.12%).

Given the IFRS 9 requirement to fair value the related loans, the Company has elected to fair value the debt securities in issue, which as at 30 June 2023 was GBP 89,179,092 (at 31 December 2022: GBP92,649,367). On an amortised cost basis, the value of the debt securities in issue at 30 June 2023 would be GBP128,830,562 (at 31 December 2022: GBP133,027,075). Consistent with the prior period, the fair value was derived from quoted market prices at the balance sheet date. In accordance with IFRS 13 and due to a reduction in the frequency and volume of transactions observed in the immediate run up to the period end, the fair value is considered to be level 2 as at 30 June 2023 (2022: level 1).
The interest rate payable on the EUR150 million Perpetual Subordinated Notes is EUR-TEC10-CNO plus 35 basis points, capped at 9 per cent, fixed on 05 February, 05 May, 05 August and 05 November each year. From and including the interest payment date falling in August 2016 and every interest payment date thereafter, the Company may redeem all (i.e. not in part) of the Perpetual Subordinated Notes at their principal amount.
The interest rate on the above notes at 30 June 2023 was 3.17% (31 December 2022: 3.11%).
