STRATEGIC REPORT |
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023 |
The directors present their strategic report for the year ended 31 December 2023. |
REVIEW OF BUSINESS |
Operating review |
The company's trading performance during the year has been in line with the directors expectations. Turnover has increased by 18% on the previous year, Gross margins have increased by 0.7% on last year. |
The figures are reflective of industry performance in the year. Overhead expenses have been a key area that the company continuously and consistently keep under tight control, with close monitoring of key areas throughout the business being fundamental to its success. |
PRINCIPAL RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES |
Financial Risk Management |
The company monitors working capital management strictly. Financial management risk is largely negated due to the net worth and financial viability of the company. |
Competitive Risk Assessment |
The company operates in a competitive environment, however, the directors believe that the company through continued focus on cost reduction and continued investment in new products is well placed to continue developing its market share. |
DIRECTORS' STATEMENT OF COMPLIANCE WITH DUTY TO PROMOTE SUCCESS OF THE COMPANY |
We have a legal responsibility under Section 172 of the Companies Act 2006 to act in good faith to promote the company success and have regard to the long-term effect our decisions have on the company and its stakeholders. |
The principle business is the supply and aftersales service of new and used agricultural tractors and farm equipment to the farming industry.The company continues to strive to provide the highest levels of customer service and satisfaction, together with providing stable employment, training and financial reward for its employees and acting as a valued business partner for its suppliers and customers.We have established over many years long -term relationships with our customers and aim to continue efficient practices at every opportunity based on strong communication and close understanding of customers' requirements. Strategic decisions are based on long-term objectives, including investment in premises and facilities, training and software systems bespoke to our industry and fully integrated with our suppliers. |
Our key stakeholders and engagement with them are as follows- |
Employees |
The strong work ethic and motivated attitude of our team, staff retention, training and personal career development provide an advantage to our customers in trading with our business. |
Suppliers |
We form mutually beneficial partnerships with our suppliers to provide best market share and financial performance to enhance customer experience in the relationship with our business. |
Customers |
We form a friendly, fair, professional and transparent relationship with our customers, establishing efficient working practice, adopting the latest in innovation and technology to best support their needs. We aim to provide market leading products and appropriate solutions to enhance business and increase profitability for our customers. |
Environment |
We are an equal opportunity and ethical employer and act in a responsible manner to our environment, adopting environmentally friendly practices wherever possible. |
KEY PERFORMANCE INDICATORS (KPI'S) |
Financial KPI's |
The directors use Financial Key Performance Indicators to measure gross and net profit margins as well as Return On Capital Employed (ROCE), Return on Investment (ROI) and current ratio's to review the company's development and performance during the year and position at year end. |
The KPI's assessed were in line with management expectations. |
Non Financial KPI's |
Non Financial Key Performance Indicators are also used by the directors and include statistical information relating to staff hours and service levels. The directors believe that monitoring non financial KPI's contributes substantially in assessing non-financial business performance which inevitably leads to increased customer satisfaction and an increase in profitability. |

REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS |
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023 |
The directors present their report with the financial statements of the company for the year ended 31 December 2023. |
DIVIDENDS |

DIRECTORS |
The directors shown below have held office during the whole of the period from 1 January 2023 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; |
- | state whether applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; |
- | 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, Clement Millar, 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 |
SHARMANS AGRICULTURAL LIMITED |
Opinion |
We have audited the financial statements of Sharmans Agricultural Limited (the 'company') for the year 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 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. |
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 |
SHARMANS AGRICULTURAL 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: |
Enquiry of management and those charged with governance, including consideration of known or suspected |
instances of non-compliance with laws, regulations and fraud. |
- Reviewing minutes of meetings of those charged with governance. |
- Review of legal expenditure in the year to identify non-compliance with laws, regulations and fraud. |
- Reviewing financial statement disclosures and testing to supporting documentation to assess compliance with |
applicable laws and regulations. |
- Performing audit work over the risk of management override of controls, including testing of journal entries and |
other adjustments for appropriateness, evaluating the business rationale of significant transactions outside the |
normal course of business and reviewing accounting estimates for bias. In particular the calculation of stock |
related provisions and regulations. |
Due to 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 be 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. |
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. |

BASIS OF PREPARING THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
TURNOVER |
Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, excluding discounts, rebates, value added tax and other sales taxes. |
TANGIBLE FIXED ASSETS |

STOCKS |
Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value, after making due allowance for obsolete and slow moving items. |
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. |
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. |
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. |
LEASING AND HIRE PURCHASE COMMITMENTS |
Assets held under finance leases or hire purchase contracts are capitalised under tangible fixed assets in the balance sheet and depreciated over their useful economic lives. The capital element of the future payments is treated as a liability and the interest element charged to the profit and loss account. |
Rentals payable under operating leases are charged to the profit and loss account on a straight-line basis over the term of the agreement. |
3. | TURNOVER |
Turnover represents the amounts derived from the provision of goods and services which fall within the company's ordinary activities. |
