Strategic Report
for the Year Ended 30 June 2023

The directors present their strategic report for the year ended 30 June 2023.

REVIEW OF BUSINESS
The expertise of Algo (Blairgowrie) Limited sits across a range of specific sectors with particular specialisms in the construction of agricultural buildings and commercial buildings related to the whisky sector. Underlying profitability of projects at the core of the company's operating expertise was strong and consistent with prior years. However, the company took on two government contracts to construct social housing projects in Kirkcaldy and Dundee and these non-core projects have recorded a gross loss of £4,548,768.

These projects were negotiated and agreed on a fixed price basis before the hyper-inflation post Covid 19 era increased material prices and despite regular negotiations with Fife Council and Caledonian Housing Association, acting on behalf of Dundee Council, the company has been unable to recover these additional costs. In the interest of prudence, the business has recognised the full loss on these two projects in the June 2023 accounts. Both projects will complete in early 2024 and the business will return its focus to its core areas of expertise therefore the directors expect a return to profitability levels consistent with prior years.

Due to the losses on the onerous government projects noted above the company has reported a gross loss of £1,197,022 (2022 : £2,317,079 gross profit). These two contracts have been reported as an exceptional item in these audited financial statements :


Loss after tax for the year ended June 2023 (including exceptional items) £2,689,181

Profit after tax for the year ended June 2023 (excluding onerous contracts) £722,395


Post year end trading has been strong with turnover for the 6 months to December 2023 up on the previous year at £16.5m generating strong gross profit margins. Despite the impact of the current year, the company balance sheet remains robust with net assets of £3,040,108 and net current assets of £2,616,610.

After the year end the company has secured additional funding to support continued company growth and expansion. The company has a strong, loyal and varied customer base across the agricultural and commercial sectors as well as private customers and going forward the directors are confident the company will exceed the profitability of prior years.

PRINCIPAL RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES
The principal risks and uncertainties affecting the company are those associated with all construction/building sectors and include:

1. The general and political climate in Scotland.
2. The competitive nature of our industry.
3. The increase in the regulatory environment including health & safety, planning and utilities.
4. The increased level of contracting opportunities which could result in a skills shortage.
5. The impact of increasing costs on the margin achievable on contracts already in place.

The total distribution of dividends for the year ended 30 June 2023 will be £108,000.

Other changes in directors holding office are as follows:

Mr A A Farmer ceased to be a director after 30 June 2023 but prior 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.

Report of the Directors
for the Year Ended 30 June 2023


AUDITORS
Drummond Laurie CA are deemed to be reappointed under section 487(2) of the Companies Act 2006.

ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD:




Mr C M Alexander - Director


14 March 2024

Report of the Independent Auditors to the Members of
Algo (Blairgowrie) Limited

Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of Algo (Blairgowrie) Limited (the 'company') for the year ended 30 June 2023 which comprise the Statement of 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 30 June 2023 and of its loss 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
Algo (Blairgowrie) 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 two, 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.

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.

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.

Based on our understanding of the company, we identified that the principal risks of non-compliance with laws and regulations related to fraudulent manipulation of the financial statements, including the risk of override of controls, to reduce profits and tax liabilities. We determined that the most likely method of manipulation would be the posting of inappropriate journal entries. Audit procedures performed by the audit engagement team consisted of a review of large and unusual journal entries, challenging assumptions and judgements made by management in significant accounting estimates, discussions with management related to known or suspected instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations, review of Board minutes where available, and an evaluation of management controls designed to prevent and detect irregularities.

There are inherent limitations in the audit procedures described above and the further removed non-compliance with laws and regulations is from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, the less likely we would become aware of it. Also, the risk of not detecting a material misstatement due to fraud is higher than the risk of not detecting one resulting from error, as fraud may involve deliberate concealment by, for example, forgery or intentional misrepresentations or through collusion.

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
Algo (Blairgowrie) Limited


Use of our report

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.

Notes to the Financial Statements
for the Year Ended 30 June 2023

1. STATUTORY INFORMATION

Algo (Blairgowrie) Limited is a private company, limited by shares, domiciled in Scotland, registration number SC166057. The registered office is Mains of Mause, Blairgowrie, Perthshire, PH10 6TE.

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparing the financial statements
These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland" and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.

Turnover
Turnover represents net invoiced sales of goods and services in respect of construction, excluding value added tax.

Turnover comprises the fair value of construction carried out in the year, based on an internal assessment of work carried out. Once the outcome of a construction contract can be estimated reliably, profit is recognised on a stage of contract completion basis by reference to either costs incurred to date and total forecast costs on the contract as a whole, or certified value.

Losses expected in bringing a contract to completion are recognised immediately as soon as they are forecast. Where the outcome of variations is uncertain, the company only recognises turnover and associated profit where it is probable that the client will approve the variation. Where the outcome of claims is uncertain, the company only recognises turnover when negotiations have reached an advanced stage such that it is probable that the customer will accept the claim.

Amounts due from construction contract customers which are included within debtors, represent turnover less progress payments received. Where progress payments exceed turnover and other contract balances, the excess is shown as amounts due to construction contract customers within current liabilities.

Tangible fixed assets and depreciation
Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life or, if held under a finance lease, over the lease term, whichever is the shorter.
Long leasehold - 15% on cost and 4% on cost
Plant and machinery - 33% on reducing balance, 25% on reducing balance, 20% on reducing balance and 15% on reducing balance
Motor vehicles - 33% on reducing balance and 25% on reducing balance
Computer equipment - 33% on reducing balance and 25% on reducing balance

Tangible fixed assets are stated at cost less depreciation. Cost represent purchase price together with any incidental costs of acquisition.

The directors have considered the residual value of all tangible fixed assets to be immaterial and therefore all tangible fixed assets are depreciated to nil value.

Stocks
Stocks and work in progress are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value, after making due allowance for obsolete and slow moving items. Cost is represented by purchase price.

Taxation
Taxation for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income, 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.

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

Deferred taxation
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
Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to the profit and loss account as incurred.

Assets obtained under hire purchase contracts and finance leases are capitalised as tangible fixed assets. Assets acquired by finance lease are depreciated over the shorter of the lease term and their useful lives. Assets acquired by hire purchase are depreciated over their useful lives. Finance leases are those where substantially all of the benefits and risks of ownership are assumed by the company. Obligations under such agreements are included in creditors net of the finance charge allocated to future periods. The finance element of the rental payment is charged to the profit and loss account on a straight line basis.

Investment in finance leases are included in current assets and amortised on a straight line basis over the lease term. Rentals receivable under operating leases are credited to income on a straight line basis over the lease term.

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.

Contributions have been made by the company for certain employees into their respective personal pension plans. Contributions paid into the individual pension plans are charged to the profit and loss account as incurred.

Provisions
Provisions are recognised when the company has a legal or constructive obligation as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation, and the amount has been reliably estimated. Provisions are not recognised for future operating losses. Provisions are discounted where the time value of money is material.

Where there are a number of similar obligations, the likelihood that an outflow will be required in settlement is determined by considering the class of obligations as a whole. A provision is recognised even if the likelihood of an outflow with respect to any one item included in the same class of obligations may be small.

Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash at bank and in hand and highly liquid interest-bearing securities with maturities of three months or less. In the cash-flow statement, cash and cash equivalents are shown net of bank overdrafts, which are included as current borrowings in liabilities on the balance sheet.

Going concern
The directors of the company have reviewed the results for the year ended 30th June 2023, the subsequent post year end trading period as well as the detailed company forecasts and projections beyond a period of 12 months from the balance sheet signing date which indicate the company will be profitable and cash generative. The company has a large current order book and subsequent to the year end has secured additional funding to support the company's growth and expansion. Therefore it is the directors' belief that the company should prepare financial statements on a going concern basis.

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

Financial instruments
Financial instruments are classified and accounted for, according to the substance of the contractual arrangement, as either financial assets, financial liabilities or equity instruments. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the company after deducting all of its liabilities.

Financial assets
Short term debtors are measured at transaction price, less any impairment. Loans receivable are measured initially at fair value, net of transaction costs, and are measured subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment.

If transaction costs are immaterial and the credit period is short, amortised cost is equal to the nominal value less any allowance for credit losses. Amortised interest is recognised as Interest income within the Income Statement.

Where loans are provided interest-free or below market rate, the market value on initial recognition is required to be estimated by discounting the loan amount to the present value of future payments using an equivalent rate of a similar instrument.

Financial liabilities
Short term trade creditors are measured at the transaction price. Other financial liabilities, including bank loans, are measured initially at fair value, net of transaction costs, and are measured subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

If transaction costs are immaterial and the credit period is short, amortised cost is equal to the nominal value. The amortisation of financial liabilities is recognised as an Interest expense within the Income Statement.

Where loans are provided interest-free or below market rate, the market value on initial recognition is required to be estimated by discounting the loan amount to the present value of future payments using an equivalent rate of a similar instrument.

Significant estimates and judgements
The preparation of financial statements required management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates. Estimates and assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis and revisions to estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised and in any future periods affected.

The estimates and assumptions which have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets and liabilities relate to construction contract accounting as the values recognised are based on the proportion of work carried out on a contract by contract basis.

Auditors' remuneration 12,000 10,000

5. EXCEPTIONAL ITEMS

The current year results include exceptional losses of £4,548,768 on two onerous government contracts. These projects were negotiated and agreed on a fixed price basis before the hyper-inflation post Covid 19 era increased material prices and despite regular negotiations with Fife Council and Caledonian Housing Association, acting on behalf of Dundee Council, the company has been unable to recover these additional costs. In the interest of prudence, the business has recognised the full loss on these two projects in the June 2023 accounts. Both projects will complete in early 2024 and the business will return its focus to its core areas of expertise therefore the directors do not expect similar contract losses going forward.

Profit in the year ended 30 June 2023 included exceptional provisions of £143,309 (2022: £223,113) against related party debts. The funds had been advanced to support the ventures through developmental stages however due to market conditions the directors took the prudent decision to provide against these balances.
