STRATEGIC REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2024
The directors present their strategic report, which is followed by the directors' report, together with the audited financial statements for the period ended 30 September 2024.
The principal activities of Integrated Service Solutions Limited (“the Company”) are the packing, grading, ripening, storage, and warehousing of fresh produce.
The Company has continued to benefit from the success of the transparent supply chain model in which its customer’s operate, gaining additional retail customers and additional volume and also volume growth in value adding activities, contributing to success in the period. This increased volume, along with focussed cost control has enabled optimisation of existing structures and resources. During the period, we integrated our purchase of a major packing hub and invested significantly in the capability of the factory and the supporting IT infrastructure. Additionally, we have changed the management team who have delivered a culture of continuous improvement and beginning the journey of establishing a business of shared values with our key customers. We are pleased that we are now moving at pace to a well-managed efficient supply solution. As we operate in the world of efficient resilience, we are aware that more cost-effective capacity has become a critical requirement in our business and our team are working hard to fulfil this goal. The National Living Wage increase was enacted in April 2024 and this substantial increase is coupled with customer pressure to keep inflation low for consumers. ISS continues to work on cost mitigation initiatives to improve resilience around labour cost increases, exploring automation, new technology and process improvements. The overall performance exceeded the directors’ expectations, and the outlook remains positive.
The directors and management team continually review and monitor the operational risk of the business.
The key risks in the current period are those faced by the wider UK food and manufacturing sectors, energy pricing, labour scarcity and associated wage inflation.
The directors consider the principal risk to the Company to be the impact on the supply chain due to climate
change. The Company's financial instruments principally comprise of cash at bank and hire purchase loans from 3rd parties. In addition, the Company has various other financial assets and liabilities such as trade debtors and trade creditors arising directly from operations. It is and has been throughout the period under review, the Company's policy that no speculative trading in financial instruments shall be undertaken. The main risks arising from the Company's financial instruments are interest rates, liquidity risk and credit risk. The Board reviews and agrees policies for managing each of these risks and they are summarised below. These policies have remained unchanged throughout the period. Interest rate risk The Company is exposed to fair value interest rate risk on it fixed rate borrowings. All borrowings are in GBP.

The directors of the Company are mindful of the impact their decisions may have on all our stakeholders and the consequent actions that are undertaken. The directors consider the reputation of all stakeholders in their decisions and actions and act with a high standard of business conduct. The Company has individual management and board meetings where applicable. The key stakeholders in the Company and how we engage with them is detailed in the directors' report.

In preparing these financial statements, the directors are required to:
∙select suitable accounting policies for the Company's financial statements and then apply them consistently;
∙make judgments and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
∙state whether applicable UK 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.

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.

DIRECTORS' REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2024
The Company’s goal is to evolve an engaged, motivated and empowered group of employees that understand and embrace the Company values and objectives. The directors believe that people create the point of difference. The role of Head of People is key to the effectiveness of the Executive Team by elevating employee interests, so they are fully integrated into business strategy and decisions.
The directors engage with the business through regular board meetings with the executive management team and site visits. The executive management team engages with employees through team meetings, group briefings and where appropriate a one to one meeting on matters likely to affect their interests. The Company seeks feedback from employees as individuals, using an anonymous employee engagement survey and consults with employees in groups using a regular, minuted, employee forum. This forum is made up of employee nominated representatives and includes at least one of the Company’s executive team. This enables Directors to gain timely feedback on the impact to employee interests due to decisions taken throughout the year. Information on matters of concern to employees and workers is communicated through emailed information bulletins, toolbox talks, and posters displayed in multiple languages on noticeboards. These processes seek to achieve a common awareness on the part of all employees of the financial and economic factors affecting the Company's performance.
The board of directors, in line with their duties under section 172(1) of the Companies Act 2006, act individually and collectively in the way that they consider, in good faith, would be most likely to benefit all stakeholders of the business.
Customers We build strong long-term relationships with our customers and when possible, spend considerable time with them to listen to their needs, demands and views so that we can continually improve our business models. It is essential that our customers needs are intrinsic to the business models that operate through the Company as this is integral to evolve the long-term sustainable business we continually aspire to be. The nature of our business models mean that we see both the end consumer and our suppliers as equal and opposite ends of our supply chain. Consequently, they are all customers. Communities and Environmental Impact The Company recognises its potential to impact the community and the environment by: Continuing to champion the removal of exploitation within teams and supply chains through engagement with Stronger Together and other stakeholders, focusing on responsible recruitment, training and practical tools to highlight and identify risks of Modern Slavery; Continuing to work closely with stakeholders to remove unnecessary packaging within the supply chain and investing in resource to support this initiative. Where packaging is required considerations about the material and the weight of this material are considered in line with environmental impact; and . Striving to reduce food waste within the supply chains by reviewing processes and activities with stakeholders. Where waste is unavoidable food is redistributed within the community through partners like Fareshare and inedible product is channeled into the wider food supply chain or waste to energy initiatives.

We are committed to ensuring trust, transparency, and the respect of human rights across the supply chain. The shareholders and stakeholders are implicit in their support of upholding the highest standards of ethical trade. We aim to fully understanding our supply chains, the human rights risks that may exist within them and take appropriate actions to ensure that all people are protected, respected, and treated fairly.We are proud of our public commitment and annual statements that demonstrate a continually evolving, zero-tolerance approach to modern slavery and human trafficking in all of its forms. Operating Responsibly Our strategy to operate responsibly across the Company is aligned to three impact pillars that are at the core of our values and align to the international blueprint for sustainability the UN Sustainable Development Goals. Product: We must protect food safety and integrity, whilst improving the impact of our product across the supply chain through innovation to eliminate food and packaging waste. We will collaborate and work in partnership to develop scalable solutions that can increase the circulatory of materials within the human consumption chain. Plant: We must work towards a zero-carbon future and be net zero by 2035. Where possible we will evolve to low carbon precision production systems and maximise the yield for every metre of the planet we use, coupled with the lowest impact possible. People: We support healthy eating in local communities and encourage the team to be healthy and happier. We must nurture talent at all levels and work in partnership with customers and suppliers to advocate for 30% of leadership positions to be occupied by women by 2030. All of the team should share in our success and be rewarded accordingly. This is underpinned by being ethical and transparent throughout the Company's activities or simply put, operating responsibly.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF INTEGRATED SERVICE SOLUTIONS LIMITED
We have audited the financial statements of INTEGRATED SERVICE SOLUTIONS LIMITED (the 'Company') for the year ended 30 September 2024, which comprise the Statement of comprehensive income, the Balance sheet, the Statement of changes in equity and the related notes, 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).
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 United Kingdom, including the Financial Reporting Council'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.
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.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF INTEGRATED SERVICE SOLUTIONS LIMITED (CONTINUED)
The other information comprises the information included in the Annual Report other than the financial statements and our Auditors' report thereon. The directors are responsible for the other information contained within the Annual Report. 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. 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 course of 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.
In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:
∙the information given in the Strategic report and the Directors' report for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and
∙the Strategic report and the Directors' report have been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.
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 Directors' report.

INTEGRATED SERVICE SOLUTIONS LIMITED
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF INTEGRATED SERVICE SOLUTIONS LIMITED (CONTINUED)
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 an Auditors' report 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.
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 gained an understanding of the legal and regulatory framework applicable to the company and the industry in which it operates, and considered the risk of acts by the company that were contrary to applicable laws and regulations, including fraud. We designed audit procedures to respond to the risk, recognising that the risk of not detecting a material misstatement due to fraud is higher than the risk of not detecting one resulting from error, as fraud may involve deliberate concealment by, for example, forgery or intentional misrepresentations, or through collusion. We focused on laws and regulations which could give rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements, including, but not limited to, the Companies Act 2006 and UK tax legislation. We recognised specific food safety standards, external customer accreditations, environmental, health and safety standards to be significant laws and regulations to adhere to. Our tests included: - Agreeing the financial statement disclosures to underlying supporting documentation. - Enquiries of management and those charged with governance. - Review of meeting minutes There are inherent limitations in the audit procedures described above and, the further removed non-compliance with laws and regulations is from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, the less likely we would become aware of it. We did not identify any key audit matters relating to irregularities, including fraud. As in all our audits, we also addressed the risk of management override of internal controls, including testing journals and evaluating whether there was evidence of bias by the directors that represented a risk of material misstatement due to fraud.
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 Auditors' report.

2.Accounting policies (continued)
Functional and presentation currency
Transactions and balances
Turnover from a contract to pack, grade, ripen, store, and warehouse fresh produce is recognised in the period in which the service is provided to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the company and the turnover can be reliably measured. Turnover is measured as the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, excluding discounts, rebates, value added tax and other sales taxes.
Tangible fixed assets under the cost model are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management.
At each reporting date the Company assesses whether there is any indication of impairment. If such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is determined which is the higher of its fair value less costs to sell and its value in use. An impairment loss is recognised where the carrying amount exceeds the recoverable amount.

Depreciation is charged so as to allocate the cost of assets less their residual value over their estimated useful lives, using the straight-line method.
Depreciation is provided on the following basis:
The assets' residual values, useful lives and depreciation methods are reviewed, and adjusted prospectively if appropriate, or if there is an indication of a significant change since the last reporting date.
Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing the proceeds with the carrying amount and are recognised in profit or loss.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2024
2.Accounting policies (continued)
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.
Basic financial assets
Basic financial assets, which include trade and other debtors, cash and bank balances, are initially measured at their transaction price (adjusted for transaction costs except in the initial measurement of financial assets that are subsequently measured at fair value through profit and loss) and are subsequently carried at their amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any provision for impairment, unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest.
Discounting is omitted where the effect of discounting is immaterial. The Company's cash and cash equivalents, trade and most other debtors due with the operating cycle fall into this category of financial instruments.
Impairment of financial assets
At the end of each reporting period financial assets measured at amortised cost are assessed for objective evidence of impairment. If an asset is impaired the impairment loss is the difference between the carrying amount and the present value of the estimated cash flows discounted at the asset’s original effective interest rate. The impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss.
Financial assets are impaired when events, subsequent to their initial recognition, indicate the estimated future cash flows derived from the financial asset(s) have been adversely impacted. The impairment loss will be the difference between the current carrying amount and the present value of the future cash flows at the asset(s) original effective interest rate.
If there is a favourable change in relation to the events surrounding the impairment loss then the impairment can be reviewed for possible reversal. The reversal will not cause the current carrying amount to exceed the original carrying amount had the impairment not been recognised. The impairment reversal is recognised in the profit or loss.
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 the deduction of all its liabilities.
Basic financial liabilities, which include trade and other creditors, bank loans and other loans are initially measured at their transaction price (adjusting for transaction costs except in the initial measurement of financial liabilities that are subsequently measured at fair value through profit and loss). When this constitutes a financing transaction, whereby the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest, discounting is omitted where the effect of discounting is immaterial.
Debt instruments are subsequently carried at their amortised cost using the effective interest rate method.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2024
2.Accounting policies (continued)
Derecognition of financial assets
Financial assets are derecognised when their contractual right to future cash flow expire, or are settled, or when the Company transfers the asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to another party. If significant risks and rewards of ownership are retained after the transfer to another party, then the Company will continue to recognise the value of the portion of the risks and rewards retained.
Derecognition of financial liabilities
Financial liabilities are derecognised when the Company's contractual obligations expire or are discharged or cancelled.
The company makes estimates and assumptions concerning the future. Actual results may differ from these estimates. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods. The estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are addressed below: Tangible fixed asset depreciation The company depreciates its tangible fixed assets over their estimated useful lives, to an estimated residual value. Management use their knowledge of market conditions, historic experience and estimates of future market conditions to asses the expected useful lives and residual values of their assets.

The company has estimated tax losses of £3.7m (2023 - £3.7m ) to carry forward against future profits. These losses in part offset against the Company's deferred tax liability arising from capital allowances. The balance of any losses available to offset against future trading profits is estimated at £nil (2023 -
£184,350). No deferred tax asset has been recognised in respect of the losses arising due to the uncertainty as to when the asset will be recovered.
