STRATEGIC REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024

The directors present their strategic report for the year ended 31 December 2024.

PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES
The company develops and markets products and services dedicated to removing barriers that deaf, deafened and hard of hearing people face in their everyday lives.

REVIEW OF BUSINESS
During the year, the company has expanded and invested in key areas to support future business growth. Profitability has been strongly increased this year in comparison. All of last years and this years investments and activities sets a solid business foundation for future years.

The directors are confident that the company's broad client base and range of products and services provide a strong platform for future growth and they plan to expand European revenue in 2025.

KEY FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE INDICATORS
Turnover increased by 18.5% to £14,271,771 mainly as a result of the company expanding into other countries with a key customer.

The gross profit percentage decreased from 48% last year to 46% this year.

Operating profit was £4,477,894 compared to £3,151,520. The increase is largely attributed to investment in personnel and engineering development costs.

Other highlights in the year include:
An increase in net assets from £3,342,526 to £6,700,958
Capital investment of £89,174

PRINCIPAL RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES
The group operates in an innovative and competitive global market. The group manages the risks associated with that market with a commitment to:

Innovation and product improvement
Expanding its product and service range
Retaining existing customers and acquiring new ones
Management of margins and costs
Maintaining a skilled and efficient workforce

GOING CONCERN
The directors continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.

The group has a strong net current asset and net asset position and expected to continue trading profitably, generating substantial cash inflows. Accordingly, the directors continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.

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.

DIVIDENDS
No dividends will be distributed for the year ended 31 December 2024.

DIRECTORS
The directors shown below have held office during the whole of the period from 1 January 2024 to the date of this report.

V Vega
M W King

Other changes in directors holding office are as follows:

P L Alves was appointed as a director after 31 December 2024 but prior to the date of this report.

J Rodriguez ceased to be a director after 31 December 2024 but prior to the date of this report.

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The company's activities expose it to a number of financial risks - primarily risks of changes in foreign currency exchange rates and credit risk.

Foreign currency exchange rate risk
The company purchases goods and services from key suppliers in (principally) US dollars and also Euros. At any point in time, the company is exposed to movements in exchange rates on the net foreign denominated asset or liability position at that time.

Credit risk
All customers who wish to trade on credit terms are subject to credit verification procedures. Trade debtor balances are monitored closely on an ongoing basis and provision is made for any doubtful debts where necessary.

The company's bank deposits are held by banks with high credit ratings assigned by international credit rating agencies.

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.

REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024


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, Thomson Cooper, will be proposed for re-appointment at the forthcoming Annual General Meeting.

REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF
SIGNIFICAN'T (UK) LIMITED

Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of Significan't (UK) Limited (the 'company') for the year ended 31 December 2024 which comprise the Income Statement, Other 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 2024 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.

REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF
SIGNIFICAN'T (UK) LIMITED


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.

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.

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:

We identified and assessed the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error and then performed audit procedures responsive to those risks.
From our general and sector experience and through discussion with the directors, we identified areas of laws and regulations that could reasonably be expected to have a material impact on the financial statements.
We discussed the company's policies and procedures regarding the compliance with laws and regulations with the directors and considered the internal controls established to mitigate risks of fraud or non-compliance with laws or regulations.
We communicated identified laws and regulations throughout our team and remained alert to any indications of non-compliance throughout the audit.
The Company is subject to laws and regulations that directly affect the financial statements including financial reporting legislation (including related Companies 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.
We also performed analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected relationships that may indicate risks of material misstatement due to fraud.
We addressed the risk of fraud through management override of controls, reviewing the appropriateness of journal entries and other adjustments, assessed accounting estimates for potential bias and reviewed any significant unusual transactions.
We reviewed available regulatory and legal correspondence, available board minutes and enquired of the directors regarding any pending litigation or known instances of irregularities, including fraud.
Owing to the inherent limitations of an audit: there is an unavoidable risk that we may not detect all material misstatements in the financial statements, even though we have properly planned and performed our audit and we cannot be expected to detect non-compliance 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.

REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF
SIGNIFICAN'T (UK) 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.

3. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued
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.

Software development
Expenditure on software development is written off in the year in which it is incurred.

Foreign currencies
Foreign currency transactions are initially recognised by applying to the foreign currency amount the spot exchange rate between the functional currency and the foreign currency at the date of the transaction.

Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in a foreign currency at the balance sheet date are translated using the closing rate.

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.

Employee benefits
When employees have rendered service to the company , short-term employee benefits to which the employees are entitled are recognised at the undiscounted amount expected to be paid in exchange for that service.

The company operated a defined contribution plan for the benefit of its employees. Contributions are expenses as they become available.

3. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

Going concern
At the time of approving the financial statements, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus the directors continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.The directors have considered a period of 12 months from the date of approval of the financial statements.

Judgements in applying accounting policies and key sources of estimation uncertainty
The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported as assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses for the year. The key sources of estimation uncertainty are as follows:

Depreciation and amortisation of tangible and intangible fixed assets:
Tangible fixed assets are depreciated over their useful lives taking into account residual values, where appropriate. The expected lives of assets and their residual values are assessed regularly and may vary depending on a number of factors including technological innovation, product life cycles, future market conditions and maintenance programmes.

Intangible assets, including goodwill, are amortised over their expected useful lives. These estimates are based on a variety of factors such as expected product life cycles, customer retention rates, and levels of cash generation.

Impairment of assets:
Tangible fixed assets, intangible fixed assets, fixed asset investments, stock and debtors are all reviewed for evidence of impairment.

In connection with fixed assets (tangible, intangible and investments) factors taken into consideration include the economic viability, the expected future financial performance of the asset and, where appropriate, the viability and expected future performance of related cash generating units.

Trade debtors are reviewed for evidence of impairment. Factors considered include ageing, past recovery rates, customer creditworthiness, and the stage and expected outcome of any recovery proceedings
