REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024

The directors present their report with the financial statements of the company for the year ended 31 December 2024.

PRINCIPAL ACTIVITY
The principal activity of the company in the year under review was that of the design, manufacture and supply of interior and exterior lighting.

REVIEW OF BUSINESS
Economic challenges from 2023 persisted throughout 2024 with year on year order intake and quotations remaining broadly unchanged. Under new leadership and increased parent company collaboration, our core client base, new clients, CPD presentation load and quotes for our innovative Line range have increased. Additionally our international pipeline grew by over 260% on 2023 based primarily on projects specified out of the UK. During 2025 we will further strengthen our strategic partnerships with external parties in the UK.

Interest in Selux' nature centric environmental solutions grew steadily, building on the 2023 launch of Circular Light Profiles and the Aya luminaire. New product solutions added during 2024 included the groundbreaking TAL shield, that protects insect ecosystems, and the standalone customisable and scalable Aeto solar luminaires.

The transitioning of all IT and telephony systems to cloud-based solutions was completed; significantly enhancing digital security, business recovery capability, record keeping, transparency and collaboration across the group. Resulting running cost savings are anticipated to grow as further efficiencies, including extending home working across the organisation, are implemented during 2025.

DIRECTORS
M Dreismann has held office during the whole of the period from 1 January 2024 to the date of this report.

Other changes in directors holding office are as follows:

N Emery - resigned 30 July 2024
S Winnig - appointed 15 May 2024

GOING CONCERN
Financial support from our parent company has continued throughout 2024 as outlined in note 11 to the accounts. Their ongoing commitment to supporting Selux UK Limited has been assured to at least 31 March 2026.
As a result we consider it is appropriate to prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis.

STATEMENT OF DIRECTORS' RESPONSIBILITIES
The directors are responsible for preparing 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), including Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland'. 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.

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

Going concern
Financial support from our parent company has continued throughout 2024 as outlined in note 11 to the accounts. Their ongoing commitment to supporting Selux UK Limited has been assured to at least 31 March 2026.

Turnover
Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, excluding discounts, rebates, value added tax and other sales taxes.

Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised when the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods have passed to the buyer, usually on delivery of the goods, the amount of revenue can be measured reliably, it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the entity and the costs incurred or to be incurred in respect of the transaction can be measured reliably.

Tangible fixed assets
Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off the cost less estimated residual value of each asset over its estimated useful life.
Improvements to property - straight line over life of the lease
Computer equipment - at variable rates on reducing balance and at varying rates on cost

Stocks
Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value, where cost is calculated on the Average Cost basis, 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 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.
