GROUP STRATEGIC REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JANUARY 2022
The directors present their strategic report for the year ended 31 January 2022.
The company acts as a holding company for a major mechanical and electrical services contractor which constitutes the main part of the group's activities and this business review reflects these activities for the year end 31 January 2022.
The subsidiary company’s turnover for the year remained stable at approximately £36.5 million compared to £35.6 million last year. Whilst the directors remain keen to grow the business, the turnover for the year reflects the company’s continued focus on quality and team development. This ongoing substantial investment in the business has resulted in the company winning contracts from its existing customer base as well as resulting in contracts with new customers. Most of the work undertaken in the year related to residential contracts with project sizes of between £5m and £10m. The company also carries out work in the commercial sector where it is satisfied that it has the resources and capability to maintain its high standards. The company achieved a gross margin of 24% an increase of 9% compared to the previous year. Whilst the company remained profitable, it carried out a detailed performance review which led to improvements in the structure of the leadership management team and retained focus on cost control. In addition to investing in and enhancing the management capabilities of the business, the company continues to invest in training for all management and leadership teams. During the year, the company had 23 plumbing apprentices (2021 – 32). In addition, 6 of the apprentices qualified as plumbers in the year 2022, 95% were retained by the company (2019 – 100%). Our training programmes involve apprentices working alongside our experienced plumbers & heating engineers so that they develop their skills whilst ensuring that we maintain standards and quality. Equally important to the company’s growth plans is the ability of the company to retain staff and the company enjoyed an overall staff retention rate of 95% for the year (2021 - 97%). The directors recognise the challenges ahead for the company and industry following the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic, Brexit and the current rates of inflation. The directors are continuing to monitor and manage the impact of these on the business and are confident in the robust business plans for the current situation which factors in any temporary disruption to the business.

GROUP STRATEGIC REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JANUARY 2022
The principal risks from the group's principal activity arise from:
Commercial relationships risk The group has developed close commercial relationships with several key clients and suppliers because of its commitment to quality and service. The loss of any of these key clients or suppliers could have a detrimental effect on the groups's results. To minimise this risk, the group invests heavily in training and systems and effective communications to support those relationships. Competitor risk The group operates in a highly competitive market. To mitigate the risk of business loss, the group focuses on maintaining and enhancing its unique core differentiators so that it remains highly competitive. Litigation and regulation risk The group is subject to a broad range of laws, regulations, and standards. Non-compliance with any of these laws, regulations and standards can significantly damage the reputation and performance of the group. The group operates strong quality control procedures to ensure that any such risks are minimised. Credit risk The group derives a significant proportion of its revenue from sales to large private organisations. The failure of any such customer to honour its debts or refuse to approve work completed could materially impact on the group's own working capital. Credit control responsibility for key accounts is assigned to the Commercial Director so as to ensure that the group closely monitors debt collection periods in order to flag up any likely problems before they arise. Going concern risk The group recognises that the loss of contracts or a significant rise in costs could affect the company's ability to continue as a going concern. This risk is mitigated by the number of contracts entered and their long-term nature and therefore cash flows generated. The company retains cash reserves sufficient to cope with short term. Emerging risks The company has identified the following emerging risk: • Continuing increase in inflation and interest rates on the UK economy • The impact of Covid-19 and subsequent ongoing recovery • The development of the climate change agenda

GROUP STRATEGIC REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JANUARY 2022
The directors monitor the performance of the group by reference to the following key performance indicators:
Contract value The group invests heavily in its workforce and is most effective in delivering value within a range of pre-set contract values. Gross margin This year there was a gross margin of 24% (15% - 2021). Contract gross margins are managed monthly to ensure that the group is achieving sufficient profitability levels to support its investment programmes and quality standards. Sales applications against budget (target 98%) Detailed financial contract reviews are carried out monthly to ensure that work is in line with the planned programme.
Management to labour ratio (target 10%)
The group monitors the adequacy of supervision and management to maintain our quality and health & safety standards. Health & safety The Board reviews the Accident Log monthly as a primary indicator of health and safety standards. In addition, the group audits all sites at least once per month by an independent specialist, to which an average score of 98% is achieved. Contract Pipeline Having a clear view of future work is key to the Board’s strategic decision making. Whilst the directors remain keen to grow the business, the turnover for the year reflects the groups’s continued focus on quality and team development. This ongoing substantial investment in the business has resulted in the group winning contracts from its existing customer base as well as resulting in contracts with new customers.
This report was approved by the board on 24 August 2022 and signed on its behalf.

DIRECTORS' RESPONSIBILITIES STATEMENT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JANUARY 2022
The directors are responsible for preparing the Group Strategic Report, the Directors' Report and the consolidated 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 the Group and of the profit or loss of the Group for that period.
In preparing these financial statements, the directors are required to:
∙select suitable accounting policies for the Group's financial statements and then apply them consistently;
∙make judgments 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 Group 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 the Group 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 the Group and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF WHE HOLDINGS LIMITED
We have audited the financial statements of WHE Holdings Limited (the 'parent Company') and its subsidiaries (the 'Group') for the year ended 31 January 2022, which comprise the Group Statement of Comprehensive Income, the Group and Company Balance Sheets, the Group Statement of Cash Flows, the Group and Company 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 Group 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 Group's or the parent 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 WHE HOLDINGS LIMITED (CONTINUED)
The other information comprises the information included in the Annual Report other than the financial statements and our Auditors' Report thereon. The directors are responsible for the other information contained within the Annual Report. 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. 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 course of 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 this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. 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 Group 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 Group 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 Group and the parent Company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Group Strategic Report or the Directors' Report.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF WHE HOLDINGS 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 Group 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 that are applicable to the entity and determined that the most significant are those that: • had a direct effect on the determination of material amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. These included the UK Companies Act and tax legislation etc; and • do not have a direct effect on the financial statements but compliance with which may be fundamental to the company’s ability to operate or to avoid a material penalty. These include operational and employment laws and regulations including health and safety regulations, environmental regulations, GDPR and Subcontractor requirements. We obtained an understanding of how the company are complying with those legal and regulatory frameworks by making enquiries with management and those responsible for legal and compliance frameworks. We corroborated our enquiries through review of correspondence with regulatory bodies and gaining an understanding of the entity level controls of the company in respect of these areas and the controls in place to reduce opportunity for fraudulent transactions. We discussed among the audit engagement team including relevant internal tax specialists, regarding the opportunities and incentives, including management override of controls, that may exist within the organisation for fraud and how and where fraud might occur in the financial statements. We also communicated the applicable laws and regulations throughout our team and remained alert to any indications of non-compliance throughout the audit. As a result of performing the above, we identified the greatest potential for fraud in the following areas, and our specific procedures performed to address it are described below: The principal risks related to management override in relation to posting of non-standard manual journals in respect of revenue and misstatement of expenses in relation to work in progress. Procedures performed to address these were as follows: • Walkthrough testing was carried out to identify and assess the design effectiveness of controls, management have in place to prevent and detect fraud, including known of suspected instances or non-compliance with laws and regulations and 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, • Using analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected relationships that may indicate risks of material misstatements due to fraud,

WHE HOLDINGS LIMITED
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF WHE HOLDINGS LIMITED (CONTINUED)
• Assessing the appropriateness of accounting estimates and challenging any significant assumptions or judgements made by management,
• Incorporating testing of manual journal entries that were posted throughout the year. In particular, we focused on material journal entries, journal entries posted with unusual account combinations, and journal entries crediting revenue or cash. These were scrutinised for evidence of unusual entries, • Reviewing revenue recognition policies and general policies in relation to work in progress. We assessed the accuracy and completeness of the management’s estimates through developing a detailed understanding of the contract stage and reviewing post year end activity. • Evaluated the business rationale of any significant transactions that are unusual or outside the normal course of business. • Reviewing compliance with the Health & Safety accreditations and confirming no breaches in the year. • Considering any changes to the control environment as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic.
Because of the inherent limitations of an audit, there is a risk that we will not detect all irregularities, including those leading to a material misstatement in the financial statements or non-compliance with regulation. This risk increases the more that compliance with a law or regulation is removed from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, as we will be less likely to become aware of instances of non-compliance. The risk is also greater regarding irregularities occurring due to fraud rather than error, as fraud involves intentional concealment, forgery, collusion, omission or misrepresentation.
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 Auditors' 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 an Auditors' Report 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.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JANUARY 2022
WHE Holdings Limited is a private company, limited by shares, registered in England and Wales, with aregistration number of 11828930. The registered address is First Floor, Oakwood House, Oakwood Hill Industrial Estate, Loughton, Essex, IG10 3TZ. The principal activity is that of a holding company. The principal activity of the group is mechanical and electrical building services to the new build sector in private, social housing and the commercial sector.
2.Accounting policies
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention unless otherwise specified within these accounting policies and in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland and the Companies Act 2006.
The preparation of financial statements in compliance with FRS 102 requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires Group management to exercise judgment in applying the Group's accounting policies (see note 3).
The Company has taken advantage of the exemption allowed under section 408 of the Companies Act 2006 and has not presented its own Statement of Comprehensive Income in these financial statements.
The financial statements are presented in pounds sterling, which is the functional currency of the company, rounded to the nearest £.
The following principal accounting policies have been applied:
The consolidated financial statements present the results of the Company and its own subsidiaries ("the Group") as if they form a single entity. Intercompany transactions and balances between group companies are therefore eliminated in full.
The consolidated financial statements incorporate the results of business combinations using the purchase method. In the Balance Sheet, the acquiree's identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities are initially recognised at their fair values at the acquisition date. The results of acquired operations are included in the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income from the date on which control is obtained. They are deconsolidated from the date control ceases.

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JANUARY 2022
2.Accounting policies (continued)
The financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis despite the profit and loss account reserves totalling a negative balance of £4,885,134
Included in the profit and loss account is a capital contribution totalling £2,074,399 (2021: £850,000). On consolidation as a result of the group restructure in February 2019 a new holding company was formed with no brought forward profit and loss reserves. The capital contribution therefore has come out of pre acquisition reserves as shown in the subsidiary company Woodford Heating and Energy Limited. At the year end, both the single entity holding company and trading subsidiary Woodford Heating and Energy Limited both have positive reserves. There is substantial cash balances at the year end and the group cash flow forecast shows that the group has sufficient working capital to fund the business. The directors therefore consider the going concern basis to be appropriate.
Grants of a revenue nature are recognised in the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income in the same period as the related expenditure.

2.Accounting policies (continued)
Depreciation is charged so as to allocate the cost of assets less their residual value over their estimated useful lives, on the basis below.
Depreciation is provided on the following basis:
The assets' residual values, useful lives and depreciation methods are reviewed, and adjusted prospectively if appropriate, or if there is an indication of a significant change since the last reporting date.
Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing the proceeds with the carrying amount and are recognised in profit or loss.
At each balance sheet date, stocks are assessed for impairment. If stock is impaired, the carrying amount is reduced to its selling price less costs to complete and sell. The impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised, if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods, if the revision affects both current and future periods. The key assumptions concerning the future, and other key sources of estimation uncertainty, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are discussed below. The company uses the percentage of completion method to recognise revenue for long term contracts. This method requires the directors to estimate the level of services performed at each reporting date as a proportion of the total services to be performed to complete the contract. Variations to estimates could result in the over or under recognition of revenue.
