STRATEGIC REPORT |
for the Year Ended 30 April 2024 |
The directors present their strategic report for the year ended 30 April 2024. |
REVIEW OF BUSINESS |
The Board Of Directors are satisfied with the results for the financial period. The company's balance sheet remains strong with distributable reserves of £4,259,788. |
Turnover has stabilised after fluctuations following the aftermath of the pandemic. This shows the steps taken by the directors to control costs after government Covid-19 support stopped worked and saw the company increase profit before depreciation and a distribution of prior years profits was made. The directors expect profitability to improve in the foreseeable future. The directors have also identified new markets and opportunities over the medium term which should also reinforce the company's financial position. |
Cash reserves to fund future investments remain strong and the directors are satisfied with the current levels. |
PRINCIPAL RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES |
The principal risks and uncertainties facing the company continue to be those of trading in a restricted market where prices and margins can be influenced by political pressures. However, the directors are still of the opinion that their strategic plans are enabling them to meet these challenges and the results for the year confirm these assertions. |
The company continues to maintain the importance of providing clients with a high quality specialist hire fleet. |
FUTURE DEVELOPMENTS |
The company has maintained its' core base of customers and continues to provide high quality hire services. |
The company is in a good position to expand its' fleet of vehicles to meet increased future demands. New markets are expected to open up in the short to middle term and the directors consider the company in a good position to exploit those opportunities. |
This model is continually monitored and is incorporated into its' future expansion opportunities. |
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
The accounts can be obtained by any person entitled to them by writing to the registered office shown on the information page of these accounts. The accounts, strategic report and directors' report were unqualified. |
FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT |
The company does not feel there is a material financial risk in relation to price exposure of financial instruments due to the industry in which it operates and it's own position regarding financial reserves. The company's liquidity position has historically been secure and has continued to improve significantly during the year. Likewise adequate cash reserves have been retained by the company to ensure financial stability for the foreseeable future. |

DIRECTORS |
The directors shown below have held office during the whole of the period from 1 May 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; |
- | 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 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. |
ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD: |
REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF |
S R S RAIL SYSTEM LIMITED |
Opinion |
We have audited the financial statements of S R S Rail System Limited (the 'company') for the year ended 30 April 2024 which comprise the Income Statement, Other Comprehensive Income, Balance Sheet, Statement of Changes in Equity and Notes to the Financial Statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). |
In our opinion the financial statements: |
- | give a true and fair view of the state of the company's affairs as at 30 April 2024 and of its loss for the year then ended; |
- | have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and |
- | have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006. |
Basis for opinion |
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC's Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. |
Conclusions relating to going concern |
In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. |
Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue. |
Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the directors with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report. |
Other information |
The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information in the Strategic Report and the Report of the Directors, but does not include the financial statements and our Report of the Auditors thereon. |
Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. |
In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard. |
Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006 |
In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit: |
- | the information given in the Strategic Report and the Report of the Directors for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and |
- | the Strategic Report and the Report of the Directors have been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements. |
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 |
S R S RAIL SYSTEM LIMITED |
Responsibilities of directors |
As explained more fully in the Statement of Directors' Responsibilities set out on page three, 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. |
REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF |
S R S RAIL SYSTEM 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: |
Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. |
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 that are applicable to the entity and determined that the most significant are those that relate to: |
- FRS102 |
- Treatment of incentive scheme contributions |
- Employment law |
- Health and safety |
- Fraud in relation to revenue recognition |
We assessed the risks of material misstatement in respect of fraud as follows: |
- We made enquiries with management and directors |
- We made enquiries with our internal team that provides services to the organisation |
- We completed analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected balances, figures and transactions |
- The audit team discussed and identified particular areas that were susceptible to misstatement as part of our fraud discussion |
- The audit team identified any fraud risk factors in its discussion of related party relationships and transactions |
Due to the nature of the business acting across the country, additional testing took place to ensure that expenses on staff credit cards was tested with the specific intention to look for potential fraudulent activities, none were noted. |
Based on the results of our risk assessment we designed our audit procedures to identify non-compliance with such laws and regulations identified above. |
We gained an understanding of how instances on non-compliance with laws and regulations or knowledge of actual, suspected, or alleged fraud is documented by making enquiries with management and directors |
We corroborated our enquiries through reviewing correspondence with HM Revenue & Customs, Companies House, clients Solicitors invoices, reviewing the media and at the end of these enquiries, there was no contradictory evidence noted. |
We considered the risk of fraud through management override and, in response, we incorporated testing of manual journal entries into our audit approach along with testing of bank payments and receipts that did not relate to Customers and Suppliers. We reviewed these transactions for any outside the normal course of business, none were identified. |
We considered the risk of fraud in relation to revenue recognition and completed detailed sales testing on the highest risk factor to ensure maximum testing was completed. We also completed significant testing in relation to cut off which is where the high risk is ascertained to be and were satisfied with the application of cut off in relation to the revenue recognition policies and FRS102. |
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. |

Basis of preparing the financial statements |
Financial Reporting Standard 102 - reduced disclosure exemptions |
The company has taken advantage of the following disclosure exemption in preparing these financial statements, as permitted by FRS 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland": |
• | the requirements of Section 7 Statement of Cash Flows. |
Significant judgements and estimates |
In the application of the Company's accounting policies management is required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and underlying 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. |
Simple financial instruments of less than one year are recognised at cost as this is deemed to be fair value. There are no items that require a significant estimation uncertainty. |
Turnover |
Turnover is measured at fair value for the consideration receivable excluding discounts, rebates and value added tax. It is recognised at the point a job or service is completed or, if not fully completed, to the percentage of completion at that point in time that the company is entitled to receive. |
Intangible fixed assets |
Amortisation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life. |
Trade Marks - 10% on cost |

Tangible fixed assets |
Plant and machinery | - |
Motor vehicles | - |
Specialist rail vehicles | - |
Tangible fixed assets are included at cost less depreciation and impairment. |
At each balance sheet date, the Company reviews the carrying amounts of its plant and equipment to determine whether there is any indication that any items of property, plant and equipment have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of an asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss, if any. Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of the asset, the Company estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. There has been no impairment loss in this financial year. |
The gross amount of fixed assets are shown at historic cost as management consider this to be fair value. |
Capitalised costs of Specialist Inspection Vehicles include all associated costs incurred in bringing vehicles to their current locations and conditions. |
Stocks |
Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value, after making due allowance for obsolete and slow moving items. |
Cost comprises all costs of purchase, cost of conversion and other costs incurred bringing the inventories to their present condition. |
Taxation |
Taxation for the year comprises current and deferred tax. 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. |
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. |
Foreign currencies |
Assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rates of exchange ruling at the balance sheet date. Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rate of exchange ruling at the date of transaction. Exchange differences are taken into account in arriving at the operating result. |

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. |
Assets that are held by Company under leases which transfer to the Company substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are classified as being held under finance leases. Leases which do not transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to the Company are classified as operating leases. |
Assets held under finance leases are initially recognised as assets of the Company at their fair value at the inception of the lease or, if lower, at the present value of the minimum lease payments. The corresponding liability to the lessor is included in the statement of financial position as a finance lease obligation. Lease payments are apportioned between finance expenses and reduction of the lease obligation so as to achieve a constant rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability. Finance expenses are recognised immediately in profit or loss, unless they are directly attributable to qualifying assets, in which case they are capitalised in accordance with the Company's policy on borrowing costs (see the accounting policy above). Contingent rentals are recognised as expenses in the periods in which they are incurred. |
Operating lease payments are recognised as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term, except where another systematic basis is more representative of the time pattern in which economic benefits from the leased asset are consumed. Contingent rentals arising under operating leases are recognised as an expense in the period in which they are incurred. |
Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits |
The company operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the company's pension scheme are charged to profit or loss in the period to which they relate. |
Contributions to an incentive scheme |
During the accounting period the company gifted £1,107,708 to an Incentive Scheme from reserves brought forward rather than profits for the year. In order to reflect the substance of this transaction and to present a true and fair view of the results for the year, these contributions have been charged to reserves brought forward rather than the profit and loss account |
