Strategic Report
for the Period 7 February 2023 to 31 December 2023

The directors present their strategic report for the period 7 February 2023 to 31 December 2023.

REVIEW OF BUSINESS
The results for the period and financial position of the company are shown in the annexed financial statements.

The company undertakes comprehensive business planning to define long term strategic objectives and goals. Annual budgets and operational plans are prepared utilising financial Key Performance Indicators (''KPIs''). Business performance, measured by KPI's (including monitoring of actual results against budget targets) and bank balances, is reported to the directors on a monthly basis.

The turnover for the company for the period was £nil and the gross margin profit achieved was 0% as the company did not start trading until 2024.

The Directors anticipate that the company will trade profitably for the forthcoming year.

PRINCIPAL RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES
As with any business, Kelston Sparkes Quarry Services Limited faces a number of risks and uncertainties in the course of its day to day operations. By effectively identifying and managing these risks their effects can be mitigated.

The principal risk to the company is a deterioration in demand from the UK Construction Industry. Any deterioration in economic conditions may significantly decrease demand which could have a material effect on revenues, margins, profits and debt levels.

The Directors also constantly monitor the state of receivables, as this remains a key factor in protecting the company's cash flow in the short and medium term.

FUTURE DEVELOPMENTS
The directors will continue to monitor costs closely in order to maintain profitability, whilst not comprising on quality and service. The directors will also continue to diversify into new markets when appropriate.

ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD:





R Stark - Director

P G Oddy - appointed 7 February 2023
A K Sparkes - appointed 7 February 2023

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The directors are responsible for monitoring financial risk. Appropriate policies have been developed and implemented to identify and evaluate and manage the key risks.

a) Price Risk - The company is exposed to price risk as a result of its operations. Due to the economic climate the company has to quote competitive prices to win work. The directors are aware of the risks in selling and providing services at low margins and as the trading environment improves the directors will consider improving margins.

b) Credit risk - The company has implemented policies that require appropriate credit checks on customers before contracts are entered into. The credit given to customers is subject to limits which are determined and reassessed by the directors.

c) Liquidity risk - The company is reliant upon the continued support of its bankers and lenders. Budgets and cash flow projections are prepared and regularly monitored to ensure that the company operates within these facilities.

d) Interest rate cash flow risk - The overdraft facility has been arranged at a competitive rate of interest.

e) Economic risk - The company's performance is directly impacted by the economic environment. In order to manage this risk the company strives to deliver competitively priced services. The company is actively concentrating on improving efficiency and reducing costs.

GOING CONCERN
The company has net current liabilities at the balance sheet date. It is reliant on the continued support of its parent company Kelston Sparkes Holdings Limited, who have confirmed they will continue to provide support to Kelston Sparkes Quarry Services Limited.

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 ought to have taken as a director in order to make himself aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the company's auditors are aware of that information.

AUDITORS
The auditors, A C Mole LLP, will be proposed for re-appointment at the forthcoming Annual General Meeting.

ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD:





R Stark - Director


2 September 2024

Kelston Sparkes Quarry Services Limited (Registered number: 14645128)

Statement of Directors' Responsibilities
for the Period 7 February 2023 to 31 December 2023

The directors are responsible for preparing the strategic report, the directors' report 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, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 Reduced Disclosure Framework (FRS 102).

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;
- state whether applicable United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including FRS 102, have been followed,
subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;
- notify the company's shareholders in writing about the use of disclosure exemptions, if any, of FRS 102 used in
the preparation of financial statements; and
- 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 he 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.

Report of the Independent Auditors to the Members of
Kelston Sparkes Quarry Services Limited

Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of Kelston Sparkes Quarry Services Limited (the 'company') for the period ended 31 December 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 31 December 2023 and of its loss for the period 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, the Report of the Directors and the Statement of Directors' Responsibilities, 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.

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.

Report of the Independent Auditors to the Members of
Kelston Sparkes Quarry Services Limited


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.

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:

Identifying and assessing potential risks of material misstatement due to irregularities.

We considered the following when identifying and assessing risks of material misstatement due to irregularities, including fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations;

- the legal and regulatory framework within which the business operates
- the nature of the industry in which the business operates
- the control environment and internal controls established to mitigate such risks
- the results of our enquiries of management about their own identification and assessment of risks of irregularities
- discussions within the audit engagement team and with the group auditors about where fraud might occur.

Laws and regulations which are considered to be significant to the entity include those relating to the construction industry, the requirements of the financial reporting framework FRS 102, the Companies Act 2006 and UK tax legislation. In addition we considered other laws and regulations which may not directly impact the financial statements but may impact on the operations of the company, such as the changes arising following brexit.

As a result of these procedures we concluded that the greatest potential for material misstatements due to fraud arose in respect of sales being overstated. In common with all audits under International Auditing Standards we also concluded that a risk in relation to the potential for management override of controls existed,

Audit responses to the risks identified

We undertook audit procedures to respond to the risks identified, and designed our audit testing to respond to these risks. The additional procedures we undertook included the following:

- Gaining an understanding of the company's procedures for ensuring compliance with laws and regulations.
- Controls testing over sales
- Testing the appropriateness of journal entries and other adjustments
- Considering whether accounting estimates were indicative of potential bias
- Considering any transactions which arose outside the normal course of business
- Making enquiries of management
- Corroborating our enquiries through the review of Board Minutes and review of correspondence

We also communicated relevant identified laws and regulations and potential fraud risks to all engagement team members. We remained alert to any indications of fraud or non-compliance with laws and regulations throughout the audit.

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
Kelston Sparkes Quarry Services 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.

Notes to the Financial Statements
for the Period 7 February 2023 to 31 December 2023

1. STATUTORY INFORMATION

Kelston Sparkes Quarry Services Limited is a private company, limited by shares , registered in England and Wales. The company's registered number and registered office address can be found on the Company Information page.

The presentation currency of the financial statements is the Pound Sterling (£).


The company is engaged in the provision of renting and leasing of construction and civil engineering machinery and equipment.

2. STATEMENT OF COMPLIANCE

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. These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with UK accounting standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland" ("FRS 102") and the Companies Act 2006.

3. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparing the financial statements
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.

These financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis, under the historical cost convention, as modified by certain financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value through profit or loss.

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.

Taxation
The taxation expense for the period comprises current and deferred tax recognised in the reporting period. 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. In this case tax is also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly into equity respectively.

i) Current tax
Current tax is the amount of income tax payable in respect of the taxable profit for the year or prior years, Tax is calculated on the basis of tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date.

ii) Deferred tax
Deferred tax arises from timing differences that are differences between the taxable profits and total comprehensive income as stated in the financial statements. These timing differences arise from the inclusion of income and expenses in tax assessments in periods different from those in which they are recognised in the financial statements.

Deferred tax is recognised on all timing differences at the balance sheet date, expect for certain exceptions. Unrelieved tax losses and other deferred tax assets are only recognised when it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits.

Deferred tax is measured using tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the period end and that are expected to apply to the reversal of the timing difference.

Notes to the Financial Statements - continued
for the Period 7 February 2023 to 31 December 2023

3. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

Going concern
The company meets its day-to-day working capital requirements through Kelston Sparkes Holdings Limited group bank facilities and borrowings. The Kelston Sparkes Holdings Limited group forecasts and projections, taking account of possible changes in trading conditions, show that the group should be able to operate within the level of its current bank facilities and borrowings.

The company has net current liabilities at the balance sheet date. It is reliant on the continued support of its parent company Kelston Sparkes Holdings Limited, who have confirmed they will continue to provide support to Kelston Sparkes Quarry Services Limited.

The Directors therefore continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.

Financial instruments
i) Financial assets
Basic financial assets, including trade and other receivables and other cash and bank balances are initially recognised at transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost.

At the balance sheet date financial assets are assessed for evidence of impairment. If an asset is impaired the impairment loss is recognised in the income statement.

ii) Financial liabilities
Basic financial liabilities, including trade and other payables, are initially recognised at transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost.

Critical accounting policies and estimation uncertainty
The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of policies and reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expenses.

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.

The company makes estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The resulting accounting estimates will, by definition, seldom equal the related actual results. The directors are of the opinion that there are no estimates or assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year.
