Kobalt Music Group Ltd - Tax Strategy for the Year Ended 30 June 2022 This tax strategy is published in accordance with the UK legal requirements set out in Schedule 19 of the Finance Act 2016. It outlines Kobalt’s approach to the administration of tax and the management of tax risks. The approach of the group to risk management and governance arrangements in relation to UK taxation Qualified staff within Kobalt are responsible for understanding the tax implications of the group’s activities and ensuring that tax risks are identified and addressed. Where risks or areas of genuine uncertainty are identified, external advice may be sought and/or appropriate disclosures may be made to HMRC. We consider the tax implications of any major business decision we make, to ensure that we continue to comply with applicable tax laws as the business grows and develops. We also ensure that we are kept informed of legislative changes in the UK and elsewhere so that we can take appropriate steps to remain compliant. Responsibility for the group’s tax strategy, tax policies and management of tax risk ultimately rests with the Group CFO. Responsibility for implementation rests with the Tax Director and other members of the finance team. The attitude of the group towards tax planning (so far as affecting UK taxation) Kobalt does not engage in any artificial tax arrangements. Where tax incentives or exemptions are relevant to Kobalt, we seek to apply them for their intended purpose only. Kobalt’s affairs are structured so as to achieve our commercial objectives. Where different options exist to meet these commercial objectives, the tax position of these options will be considered, but we do not enter into transactions whose primary purpose is the avoidance of tax. Transactions between Kobalt entities are on an arm’s-length basis and in accordance with OECD principles. The level of risk in relation to UK taxation that the group is prepared to accept Kobalt seeks to comply with all relevant tax legislation in the UK and elsewhere. We do not knowingly adopt any position on tax which might be considered contentious. Where appropriate, clearance is sought from HMRC in advance of any transaction which might have a significant element of tax risk. Approach to dealings with HMRC Kobalt seeks to maintain amicable and transparent relationships with HMRC and with other tax authorities worldwide. We aim to respond promptly and constructively to any requests for information from HMRC or other tax authorities.
