Group Strategic Report |
for the Year Ended 30 September 2023 |
The Board present the Strategic Report for the Year Ended 30 September 2023. |
This strategic report has been prepared for the group as a whole and therefore gives greater emphasis to those matters which are significant to Tapa Holdings Limited and its subsidiary undertakings when viewed as a whole. |
REVIEW OF BUSINESS |
The Board considers that the company has had a reasonable period of trading, given current trading conditions,showing an decrease in turnover, gross profit, and profitability. |
The Board monitors the company's performance through the use of a variety of measurements, both financial and non-financial in order to maintain effective control over the business. The most important of these are known as key performance indicators (KPIs). The main financial KPIs that the company monitors are turnover, gross profit and gross margin % and these are set out below. |
2023 | 2022 | 2021 |
Turnover | £ 55,534,371 | £60,374,557 | £ 45,141,190 |
Turnover movement | (£ 4,840,186) | £ 15,233,367 | £ 3,441,970 |
Gross profit margin | 29.96% | 30.73% | 31.96% |
Profit before tax | 10.54% | 12.93% | 12,14% |
The turnover of the Group decreased by 8.02% year on year, amounting to £ 55,534,371 (2022: increased by 33.75% to £60,374,557). |

Group Strategic Report |
for the Year Ended 30 September 2023 |
PRINCIPAL RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES |
The Board takes a conservative approach to risk and financial stability leaving sufficient reserves in the business to allow the business to expand and grow. |
Principal risks |
Downturns in the economic environment have historically been the biggest threat to the service sector. The Group is also exposed to changes in government policy in the markets in which it operates such as changes in employment law and changes in the legislation around sensitive data management. |
We mitigate these risks by closely managing our cost base as well as adjusting headcount through periods of |
economic uncertainty |
Financial risks |
The Group's operations expose it to a variety of financial risks including the effects of changes in interest rates, credit risk, and liquidity risk. |
The Group's principal financial instruments comprise cash and bank deposits, together with trade and intercompany debtors that arise directly from its operations. |
The main risks from the Group's financial instruments can be analysed below: |
Credit risk |
The Group's principal financial assets are trade and intercompany debtors, which represent the Company's major exposure to credit risk in relation to the financial assets of the Group. Reporting in this area covers weekly aged debt for every client as well as overall ledger profiles from the invoicing date taking into account any pre agreed payment terms. |
The Group has no significant concentration of credit risk, with the exposure spread over a large number of customers. The risk is further mitigated with a strong credit control function with minimal bad debts experienced. |
Liquidity risk |
The Group's policy has been to ensure continuity of funding through the operation of invoice discounting facilities. |
The Group was not materially exposed in its trading operations to the risk of changes in foreign currency exchange rates as, until close to the year end, our principal operations remained within the UK. |
It is not considered necessary for an understanding of the development, performance, or position of the company's business to comment here on environmental matters, the entity's employees or social, community and human rights issues. However, the company is very much aware and respectful of such matters and takes them in to account when planning and implementing business policy and procedures. |

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. |
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. |
Tapa Holdings Limited (Registered number: 12122090) |
Report of the Directors |
for the Year Ended 30 September 2023 |
AUDITORS |
The auditors, Evolve Accounting and Tax Solutions Limited, were appointed during the year and 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 |
Tapa Holdings Limited |
Opinion |
We have audited the financial statements of Tapa Holdings Limited (the 'parent company') and its subsidiaries (the 'group') for the year ended 30 September 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 30 September 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. |
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. |
Report of the Independent Auditors to the Members of |
Tapa Holdings Limited |
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 five, 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 |
Tapa 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: |
Identifying and responding to risks of material misstatement due to fraud |
To identify risks of material misstatement due to fraud ('fraud risks') we assessed events and conditions that could indicate an incentive or pressure to commit fraud or provide an opportunity to commit fraud. |
Our risk assessment procedures included: |
- Enquiring of directors and inspection of policy documentation at the company's high level policies and procedures to prevent and detect fraud including the company's channel for whistle blowing as well as whether they have knowledge of any actual or alleged fraud. |
- Reading board minutes |
- Considering remuneration incentive schemes and performance targets |
- Using analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected relationships |
We communicated identified fraud risks throughout the audit team and remained alert to any indications of fraud throughout the audit. |
As required by auditing standards, and taking into account possible pressures to meet profit targets, we performed procedures to address the risk of management override of controls, in particular the risk that management may be in a position to make inappropriate accounting entries. |
We did not identify any additional fraud risks. |
We performed procedures including identifying journal entries and other adjustments to test based on risk criteria and comparing the identified entries to supporting documentation. These included unusual journals posted to cash and borrowing accounts. |
Identifying and responding to risks of material misstatement due to non compliance with laws and regulations. |
We identified areas of laws and regulations that could be reasonably expected to have a material effect on the financial statements from more general commercial sector experience and through discussion with the directors and other management (as required by auditing standards) and from inspection of the company's regulatory and legal correspondence and discussed with the directors and other management for policies and procedures regarding compliance with laws and regulations. |
We communicated identified laws and regulations throughout our audit team and remained alert to any indications of noncompliance throughout the audit. |
The potential effect of these laws and regulations on the financial statements varies considerably. |
The company is subject to laws and regulations that directly affect the financial statements including financial reporting legislation (including related parties legislation), distributable profits legislation and taxation legislation and we assessed the extent of compliance with these laws and regulations as part of our procedures on the related financial statement items. |
Whilst the company is subject to many other laws and regulations, we did not identify any others where the consequences of non compliance alone could have a material effect on amounts or disclosures in their financial statements. |
Report of the Independent Auditors to the Members of |
Tapa Holdings Limited |
Context of the ability of the audit to detect fraud or breaches of law or regulation |
Owing to the inherent limitations of an audit, there is an unavoidable risk that we may not have detected some material misstatements in the financial statements, even though we may have properly planned and performed our audit in accordance with auditing standards. For example, the further removed non compliance with laws and regulations is from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, the less likely the inherently limited procedures required by auditing standards would identify it. |
In addition, as with any audit, there remained a higher risk of non detection of fraud, as these may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal controls. Our audit procedures are designed to detect material misstatement. We are not responsible for preventing noncompliance or fraud and cannot be expected to detect noncompliance with all laws and regulations. |
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. |

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements |
for the Year Ended 30 September 2023 |
1. | STATUTORY INFORMATION |
Tapa Holdings Limited is a |
The presentation currency of the financial statements is the Pound Sterling (£). |
2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
Basis of preparing the financial statements |
Basis of consolidation |
The consolidated financial statements present the results of the Group and its own subsidiaries ("the Group") as they formed a single entity. Intercompany transactions and balances between group companies are therefore eliminated in full. |
The consolidated financial statements incorporate the results of the business combinations using the purchase method. In the Balance Sheet, the acquiree's identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities are initially recognised at their fair values at the acquisition date. The results of acquired operations are included in the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income from the date on which control is obtained. They are deconsolidated from the date control ceases. |
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. |
Transactions between group entities which have been eliminated on consolidation are not disclosed within 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. |
All revenue is recognised in the Financial Statements as soon as the service has been supplied to the customer. |
Goodwill |
Goodwill represents the difference between the amounts paid on the cost of a business combination, and the acquirer's interest in the fair value of the Group's share of its identifiable assets and liabilities of the acquiree at the date of acquisition. Subsequent to initial recognition, the carrying value of Goodwill in the financial statements is assessed by the directors and an appropriate provision for amortisation is made. |
Goodwill relates to the amount paid in connection with the acquisition of businesses in 2019. The valuation of goodwill is assessed by the directors either annually or when a triggering event occurs which causes the value of goodwill to drop below the carrying value. Such triggering events will include adverse changes to the market in which the companies operate, increased competition, changes to the laws governing the market, changes to key personnel, declining cash flows, and conditions where the current assets owned by the company show a decline in value. |
The directors review the profitability of each company within the group to establish if any impairments to the |
value of goodwill exist, with reference to management's experience in the sector and market trends. The credit profiles of customers are also assessed, as well as benchmark information on the companies' competitors and the prospects for the wider economy. Future trading forecasts for each company are also considered. After considering all of these factors, a decision is made by the directors as to whether an impairment to the carrying value of goodwill has arisen and a provision is made as necessary. |

2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued |
Intangible assets and goodwill |
Intangible assets are initially measured at cost. After initial recognition, intangible assets are measured at cost |
less any accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses. |
Tangible fixed assets |
Fixtures and fittings | - |
Computer equipment | - |
Financial instruments |
The company has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 'Basic Financial Instruments' of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments. |
Financial instruments are recognised in the company's balance sheet 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 debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction cost. Financial assets classified as receivable within one year are not amortised. |
Classification of financial liabilities |
Financial liabilities and equity instruments are classified according to the substance of the contractual |
arrangements entered into. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the company after deducting all of its liabilities. |
Basic financial liabilities |
Basic financial liabilities, including creditors and loans are initially recognised at transaction price. Financial |
liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortised. |
Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of |
business from suppliers. Amounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade creditors are initially recognised at transaction price. |
Equity instruments |
Equity instruments issued by the company are recorded at the proceeds received net of transaction costs. Dividends payable on equity instruments are recognised as liabilitues once they are no longer at the discretion of the company. |
Hire purchase and leasing commitments |
Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to profit or loss on a straight line basis over the period of the lease. |
Invoice discounting |
Some companies within the group use an invoice discounting service. As and when loans are drawn dow, these amounts are secured on the trade debtors. Discounting charges and interest are charged to the profit and loss account to reflect the cost of borrowing. |

3. | CRITICAL ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS AND KEY SOURCES OF ESTIMATION UNCERTAINTY |
Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated and are based on historical evidence and other factors, |
including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Although these estimates are based on management's best knowledge of the amount, events or actions, actual results may differ from those estimates. |
In preparing these financial statements, the directors have had to make the following judgements: |
- Determine whether there are indicators of impairment to the group's tangible assets. Factors taken into |
consideration in reaching such a decision include economic viability and expected future financial performance of the asset. |
Tangible fixed assets are depreciated over their useful lives taking into account residual values, where |
appropriate. The actual lives of the assets and residual values are assessed annually and may vary depending on a a number of factors. In re-assessing asset lives, factors such as technological innovation and maintenance are taken into account. Residual value assessments consider issues such as future market conditions, the remaining life of the asset and projected disposal values. |
- Determine whether there are indicators of impairment to the group's intangible fixed assets. |
Goodwill which arose on the acquisition of subsidiary companies is reviewed by the directors based on the |
current and expected performance of each company within the Group. Based on this assessment, and an assessment of the company and its subsidiaries in the wider market, an appropriate provision is made against the carrying value of Goodwill in the accounts. After careful consideration, the directors do not believe that a provision against the carrying value of Goodwill is required in the accounts for the period ended 30 September 2023. |
