Group Strategic Report |
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 OCTOBER 2023 |
The directors present their strategic report of the company and the group for the year ended 31 October 2023. |
REVIEW OF BUSINESS |
The principal activities of the group include building contracting and engineering, highway maintenance, fibre optic services, skip hire and commercial recycling and waste management. |
The principal activity of the company is that of a holding company which operates and recharges the majority of the group's property, plant and equipment. |
The directors are pleased to report that the results of the group for the year ended 31 October 2023 demonstrate an increase in turnover of 16%. This reflects the increased demand from the public in respect of the group's waste management services, continued growth in contracting services and the sustained drive in relation to customer service level enhancement. |
The group's key financial and other performance indicators include the group's sales levels and gross and net profitability margins. These indicators are shown on the face of the profit and loss account. The directors are of the opinion that further analysis using KPIs is not necessary for an understanding of the development, performance or position of the group. |
PRINCIPAL RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES |
The directors recognise that the performance of the group is dependent upon key risks. Some of these risks are outside the group's control. The main risks are set out below. The directors review and agree policies and procedures for managing each of these and they are summarised below. |
Business performance risk |
This is the risk that the group may not perform as expected due to either internal and external factors. This risk is managed through ensuring an appropriate management team is in place, business planning, monthly financial reporting and cash management. |
Social, ethical and environmental risk |
This is the risk that the group does not meet the standards expected of it and suffers reputational damage. The group has strict quality control procedures in place and these are regularly monitored by management. The group also has a number of quality performance accreditations and compliance with these standards is actively controlled. |
Liquidity risk |
The group uses bank loan and hire purchase facilities. The group does not enter into any speculative financial transactions nor does it use financial instruments for risk management purposes. Management have a tightly controlled cash management policy and consistently review expected future cash inflows and outflows to ensure adequate liquidity exists in the business. |
Credit risk |
The group's principal financial assets are cash and trade debtors. The group deposits are short term deposits with its bankers. Group policy is aimed at minimising credit risk and has credit control procedures to ensure appropriate credit limits on customers are adhered to. |
Interest rate risk |
The group reduces exposure to interest rates through a mixture of agreed fixed and variable interest rates for the hire purchase arrangements. |

Group Strategic Report |
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 OCTOBER 2023 |
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT |
The group has invested significant resources to enable it to have a state of the art infrastructure to manage the growing waste levels it handles. The directors have a policy to ensure the research is continued to enable the company to stay at the forefront of the industry and maintain competitive advantage. |
FUTURE DEVELOPMENTS |
The directors believe that the group will continue to grow as increasing emphasis is placed upon environmentally sound treatment of waste. Whilst there are challenges in relation of the infrastructure of the business to accommodate this growth, the directors have a strategy to enable managed growth to become achievable. |

PRINCIPAL ACTIVITY |

DIRECTORS |
The directors shown below have held office during the whole of the period from 1 November 2022 to the date of this report. |
STATEMENT OF DIRECTORS' RESPONSIBILITIES |
The directors are responsible for preparing the Group 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 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 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 and the group's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the company and the group 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 the group and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. |

Report of the Directors |
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 OCTOBER 2023 |
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 group'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 group's auditors are aware of that information. |
ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD: |
Report of the Independent Auditors to the Members of |
ETM Construction & Recycling Holdings |
Limited |
Opinion |
We have audited the financial statements of ETM Construction & Recycling Holdings Limited (the 'parent company') and its subsidiaries (the 'group') for the year ended 31 October 2023 which comprise the Consolidated Income Statement, Consolidated Other Comprehensive Income, Consolidated Balance Sheet, Company Balance Sheet, Consolidated Statement of Changes in Equity, Company Statement of Changes in Equity, Consolidated Cash Flow Statement and Notes to the Consolidated 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 group's and of the parent company affairs as at 31 October 2023 and of the group's 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 group 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 group's and 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. |
Other information |
The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information in the Group 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. |
Report of the Independent Auditors to the Members of |
ETM Construction & Recycling Holdings |
Limited |
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 Group 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 Group Strategic Report and the Report of the Directors have been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements. |
Matters on which we are required to report by exception |
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 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 by the parent company, or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or |
- | the parent company 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 group's and the parent 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 group or the parent company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so. |
Report of the Independent Auditors to the Members of |
ETM Construction & Recycling Holdings |
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: |
We obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory frameworks applicable to the group and parent company and the sector in which it operates. We determined that the following laws and regulations were most significant: The Companies Act 2006, UK GAAP, the UK Corporate Governance Code, UK corporate tax laws, and the Data Protection Act. |
We obtained an understanding of how the group and parent company are complying with those legal and regulatory frameworks and made enquiries to the management of known or suspected instances of fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations. We corroborated our enquiries through our review of board minutes and review of correspondence with regulatory bodies. |
We assessed the susceptibility of the group and parent company's financial statements to material misstatement, including how fraud might occur. Audit procedures performed by the audit team included: |
o Identifying and assessing the controls management has in place to prevent and detect fraud; |
o Understanding how those charged with governance considered and addressed the potential for override of controls or other inappropriate influence over the financial reporting process; |
o Identifying and testing journal entries, in particular journal entries posted with unusual account combinations; and |
o Assessing the extent of compliance with the relevant laws and regulations. |
There are inherent limitations in the audit procedures described above and the further removed non-compliance with laws and regulations are 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 collusions. |
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. |

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements |
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 OCTOBER 2023 |
1. | COMPANY INFORMATION |
ETM Construction & Recycling Holdings Limited is a |
The company's principal activities and nature of its operations are disclosed in the Directors' Report. |
2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
Basis of preparing the financial statements |
These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with FRS 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland" ("FRS 102") and the requirements of the Companies Act 2006. |
The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the company. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £. |
The financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost convention, subject to the revaluation of certain fixed assets. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below: |
Going concern |
The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. The Directors have reviewed and considered relevant information, including the annual budget and future cash flows in making their assessment. The group will continue to rely on the financial support of its finance providers and have no reason to believe this support will not continue. Based on these assessments, given the measures that could be undertaken to mitigate any adverse conditions, and the current resources available, the Directors have concluded that they can continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the annual report and accounts. The financial statements contain no adjustments that would be necessary if the going concern basis was inappropriate. |
Basis of consolidation |
The consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the company and its subsidiary undertakings using the equity method. As a consolidated profit and loss account is published, a separate profit and loss account for the parent company is omitted from the group financial statements by virtue of section 408 of the Companies Act 2006. |
Turnover |
Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable and represents amounts receivable for goods and services provided in the normal course of business, net of discounts, VAT and other sales related taxes. Turnover is recognised at the point the ownership of the goods is passed to the customer or at the point at which a right to receipt from the provision of the service becomes obligatory from the customer. |

Tangible fixed assets |
Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life. |
Freehold property | - | 5% on cost and not depreciated |
Long leasehold | - | 5% on cost |
Improvements to property | - | Straight line over the life of the lease |
Plant and machinery | - | 20% on reducing balance |
Motor vehicles | - | 25% on reducing balance |
Computer equipment | - | 20% on reducing balance |
Freehold property and improvements to these properties are not depreciated as in the opinion of the directors the residual value of the properties is such that any depreciation is rendered immaterial. |
Government grants |
Government grants are recognised at the fair value of the asset received or receivable when there is reasonable assurance that the group will comply with any conditions attached to them. |
Cash and cash equivalents |
Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities. |
Financial instruments |
The company has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 'Basic Financial Instruments' and Section 12 'Other Financial Instruments Issues' of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments. Financial instruments are recognised when the company becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the financial statements, when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. |
Basic financial assets |
Basic financial assets, which include trade and other debtors, amounts due from group undertakings and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost. Financial assets are derecognised only when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire or are settled, or when the company transfers the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to another entity, or if some significant risks and rewards of ownership are retained but control of the asset has transferred to another party that is able to sell the asset in its entirety to an unrelated third party. |
Basic financial liabilities |
Basic financial liabilities, including trade and other creditors and amounts due to group undertakings are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest. Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method. Financial liabilities are derecognised when, and only when, the company's contractual obligations are discharged, cancelled, or they expire. |

2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued |
Taxation |
Taxation for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the Consolidated 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. |
Research and development |
Expenditure on research and development is written off in the year in which it is incurred. |
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. |
Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits |
The group operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the group's pension scheme are charged to profit or loss in the period to which they relate. |

3. | CRITICAL ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS AND KEY SOURCES OF ESTIMATION UNCERTAINTY |
In the application of the company's accounting policies, the directors are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates. |
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 estimates and assumptions which have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets and liabilities are outlined below. |
Income recognition on contracts |
Income relating to contracts proceeding before the year end but not completed at the year end is estimated based on the percentage of completion at the year end. This is assessed by comparing the total expected revenue from such contracts to the proportion of work completed by reference to the total amount of time remaining to complete. |
Impairment of debtors |
On a periodic basis management makes an estimation of the recoverability of debtors. Management makes such estimations based on the credit rating of debtors, the ageing profile, and historical experience. |
Tangible fixed assets |
Tangible fixed assets, except freehold property, are depreciated over their estimated useful lives. The actual lives of the assets are assessed annually by the directors and may vary depending on a number of factors. In re-assessing asset lives, factors such as technological innovation, product life cycles and maintenance programmes are taken into account. |
Freehold properties are assessed for any indications of impairment and valued by the directors at an appropriate market value. The value is assessed by the director's based on their local knowledge and understanding of commercial property asset values. |
Government grants |
Income from Government grants is released to the profit and loss account in a straight line over the period during which the directors conclude that the company has continued to satisfy the grant conditions. |
4. | TURNOVER |
The turnover and profit before taxation are attributable to the one principal activity of the group. |
An analysis of turnover by class of business is given below: |
