STRATEGIC REPORT |
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2021 |
The directors present their strategic report for the year ended 31 December 2021. |
REVIEW OF BUSINESS |
The Directors are satisfied with the state of affairs of the Company as reflected in the balance sheet. |
The Company's principal activities are primarily the provision of electrification services to the rail industry, together with on track plant hire, highly skilled safety critical support staff and all grades of Civils staff. |
The Company had no cease in operations in 2021 because of the COVID pandemic and there was minimal impact financially. The UK economy was again affected by uncertainty due to Brexit, COVID, and now the war in Ukraine, but we still expect the government to prioritise funding to Network Rail so it can achieve its zero-carbon emission strategy by the 2050 target. |
Despite these extraordinary circumstances the Company has still been able to post strong operating profits of £2.1m for the year, contributing to a 16.56% increase in shareholders' funds at the balance sheet date. This has been achieved by the Company securing work in its familiar core markets and concentrating on opportunities for repeat business. Low turnover of our highly skilled personnel has been key to our success. Retention and training of excellent, highly qualified staff is essential to the business. A high percentage of our personnel have been with us for over 5 years. |
The key financial and other performance indicators during the year are as follows: |
2021 | 2020 |
£ 's | £ 's | % |
Turnover | £11,388 | £11,528 | -1.21% |

STRATEGIC REPORT |
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2021 |
PRINCIPAL RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES |
The Company has a satisfactory level of workload and has demonstrated a good level of ability with all its key customers. The Company's strategy is directed at reducing risk and building a sustainable and profitable business with predictable income streams and increasing margins. The Directors believe that the Company's reputation and experience will enable it to secure a substantial volume of repeat business and gain selection for major projects. |
Credit risk is minimised by dealing only with reputable and established businesses and establishing good communication from the outset, so any credit issues are dealt with promptly. |
Overhead budgets continue to be monitored closely by the Directors together with ensuring that sufficient liquidity is available to meet foreseeable needs. |
Staffing resources have been established to allow for continued growth and staff training is continually ongoing to maintain a highly multi-skilled workforce. |
A healthy and safe working environment for the Company's staff and contractors is an essential part of its risk management strategy. The Company is continually reviewing and investing to ensure that risks in this area are minimised and controlled. |

DIRECTORS |
The directors shown below have held office during the whole of the period from 1 January 2021 to the date of this report. |
STATEMENT OF DIRECTORS' RESPONSIBILITIES |
The directors are responsible for preparing the Strategic Report, the Report of the Directors and the 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 United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards and applicable law). 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 of the profit or loss of the company for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the directors are 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 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 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 hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. |
STATEMENT AS TO DISCLOSURE OF INFORMATION TO AUDITORS |
So far as the directors are 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 each director has taken all the steps that he or she ought to have taken as a director in order to make himself or herself aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the company's auditors are aware of that information. |
AUDITORS |
The auditors, Baverstocks Limited, will be proposed for re-appointment at the forthcoming Annual General Meeting. |
ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD: |
REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF |
RAIL OP OHL LIMITED |
Opinion |
We have audited the financial statements of Rail Op OHL Limited (the 'company') for the year ended 31 December 2021 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 December 2021 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 |
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 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. |
Other information |
The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information in the Strategic Report and the Report of the Directors, 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 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. |
Opinions 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 Directors 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 Directors have been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements. |
REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF |
RAIL OP OHL 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 Directors. |
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 directors' remuneration specified by law are not made; or |
- | we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit. |
Responsibilities of directors |
As explained more fully in the Statement of Directors' Responsibilities set out on page four, the directors are 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 directors determine 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 directors are 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 directors either intend to liquidate the company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so. |
REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF |
RAIL OP OHL LIMITED |
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. |
The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below: |
Our approach to assessing the risks of material misstatement due to fraud and noncompliance with laws and regulations was as follows:- |
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 relate to compliance with the Companies Act 2006, Financial Reporting Standard 102, relevant tax legislation, the Railway Industry Supplier Qualification Scheme (RISQS) and the Fleet Operator Recognition Scheme (FORS). |
We assessed the risks of material misstatements in respect of fraud and determined that the principal risks were related to posting of journal entries to manipulate the results for the financial year. We made enquiries of management during the audit to determine any instances of fraud, while also discussing the areas of risk in relation to audit as part of our audit team meeting. |
Based upon the results of our risk assessment we designed our audit procedures to identify noncompliance with such laws and regulations identified above and also material misstatements in respect of fraud as follows:- |
- | We obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory framework in relation to the entity and how it complies with this framework. This included discussions with management, reviews of legal and professional fees and a review of the results of audits conducted by RISQS and FORS. |
- |
We discussed with the management the entity's policies and procedures including systems and controls. Compliance with these was tested via discussion and walkthrough testing of controls. |
- |
We enquired of management of their policies and procedures in relation to fraud and their knowledge of any actual, suspected, or alleged fraud. |
- |
We ensured compliance with Pay as You Earn and Value Added Tax laws via reviewing returns and correspondence. |
- | We reviewed the recent results of audits with RISQS to ensure ongoing compliance. |
- |
We considered the risk of fraud through management override, and, in response, we incorporated testing of manual journal entries into our audit approach. This included the testing of journal entries throughout the year as well as year end journals. |
- | We agreed the financial statement disclosures to underlying supporting documentation. |
- | We enquired of management if there were any potential litigation or claims. |
Whilst considering how our audit work addressed the detection of irregularities, we also consider the likelihood of detection based on our approach. Irregularities from fraud are inherently more difficult to detect than those arising from error. |
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 Report of the Auditors. |
REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF |
RAIL OP OHL LIMITED |
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. |

Rail Op OHL Limited is a |
The presentation currency of the financial statements is the Pound Sterling (£). |
2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
Basis of preparing the financial statements |
Related party exemption |
The company has taken advantage of exemption, under the terms of Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland', not to disclose related party transactions with wholly owned subsidiaries within the group. |
Critical accounting judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty |
Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. |
There are no estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing material adjustment in the financial statements. |
Turnover |
Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable net of VAT and trade discounts. The policies adopted for the recognition of turnover are as follows: |
Rendering of services |
When the outcome of a transaction can be estimated reliably, turnover from the provision of electrification services to the rail industry and plant hire is recognised by reference to the stage of completion at the balance sheet date. Stage of completion is measured by reference to the date the supply of labour and plant hire was made. |
Where the outcome cannot be measured reliably, turnover is recognised only to the extent of the expenses recognised that are recoverable. |
Tangible fixed assets |
Improvements to Property | - |
Plant and Machinery | - |
Fixtures and Fittings | - |
Motor Vehicles | - |
Computer Equipment | - |
Tangible fixed assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Cost includes costs directly attributable to making the asset capable of operating as intended. |

2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued |
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 tax |
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. |
Hire purchase and leasing commitments |
Assets obtained under hire purchase contracts or finance leases are capitalised in the balance sheet. Those held under hire purchase contracts are depreciated over their estimated useful lives. Those held under finance leases are depreciated over their estimated useful lives or the lease term, whichever is the shorter. |
The interest element of these obligations is charged to profit or loss over the relevant period. The capital element of the future payments is treated as a liability. |
Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to profit or loss on a straight line basis over the period of the lease. |
Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits |
The company operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the company's pension scheme are charged to profit or loss in the period to which they relate. |
3. | TURNOVER |
The turnover and profit before taxation are attributable to the one principal activity of the company. |
