DIRECTOR'S REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024

The director presents his report and the financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2024.

DIRECTOR'S RESPONSIBILITIES STATEMENT

The director is responsible for preparing the Group Strategic Report, the Director's Report and the consolidated financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations.
 
Company law requires the director to prepare financial statements for each financial year.

Under company law the director must not approve the financial statements unless he is 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 director is required to:


select suitable accounting policies for the group's financial statements 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 group will continue in business.

The director is 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 the group and to enable him to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006He is 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.

PRINCIPAL ACTIVITY

The principal activity of the company during the year was that of general construction and civil engineering.

The profit before taxation attributable to the owners of the parent for 2024 was £816,379 (2023 - £973,707). A dividend of £1,000 (2023: £2,000) has been declared.

GROUP STRATEGIC REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024

INTRODUCTION
 
The company activities continue in the construction sector, specialising in providing civil engineering and groundworks infrastructure to both the housing and commercial sectors. These activities include roads & sewers, attenuation, deep drainage, earthworks, site remediation and plotwork and are complimented by some above ground construction work. The majority of operations continue to be focused in the north east of England.
The directors are proud of the quality of service, attention to detail, and up-to-date knowledge of the most effective practices. It is these elements that have established the company and achieve recognition with customers to generate continued opportunities for repeat business.
The management team continues to be stable and able to draw upon many years of experience to deliver services to the highest standards when handling infrastructure projects, construction, refurbishment or the upgrading of facilities.

BUSINESS REVIEW
 
The Directors are pleased to report the trading results for the 12 months to 31 December 2024. The business achieved a profit before tax (attributable to the parent company) in 2024 of £816,379 (2023: £973,707). The business has reported a gross profit of 17.5% for 2024 (2023: 17.4%). The business achieved sales of £24,736k (2023: £24,902k), a small decrease of 0.6% compared with the previous year. Cash balances remained strong with a year end balance of £926k (2023: £1,339k).
On 1 January 2024 Arrowcruit Holdings Ltd (ACH) acquired 60% share capital of Innovation Developments NE Ltd (IDNE). IDNE was focused on the construction of social housing for national housing associations. By mid-2024 IDNE was expecting orders for two projects based in the North-East of England. In July 2024 there was a change in Government, which brought about budget uncertainties for the national housing associations. By Q4 budget uncertainties continued and it looked unlikely that IDNE would receive any orders. At this point the Directors of IDNE agreed that the company should cease trading. IDNE suffered a loss of £232k in 2024. 
Under FRS102, IDNE is considered to be a subsidiary of ACH, as ACH acquired more than 50% of the share capital. For reporting purposes the results of all subsidiaries must be included at 100% within the consolidated statement of comprehensive income and balance sheet. The profit before tax is summarised as follows :  
Profit before tax (consolidated statement of comprehensive income) £724k (includes 100% of IDNE)
Remove non-controlling IDNE loss (40% of £232k)    £93k
Profit before tax attributable to owners of ACH    £816k
The Group invested in £4.6m of new plant, machinery and motor vehicles during 2024. This will provide the Group with up to date, well maintained equipment that will help support efficient working practices and increase profitability, whilst servicing the client base and delivering the on-going order book. The investment resulted in an increased depreciation charge for the year of £1,725k (
2023: £1,557k). 
The group continues to strive to achieve the best controls of contracts throughout their duration and accurate pricing of new contracts. The main focus of the company continues to be infrastructure work for the housing and commercial sectors.
At the date of this report, the order book for future work continues to run in excess of £27 million, again giving visibility of work for the following months and a strong base of work for the following twenty-four months. The company is therefore in a strong position of being able to choose the most desirable work offered to it.

GROUP STRATEGIC REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024

PRINCIPAL RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES
 
Despite 2024 experiencing a change in Government, the house building sector remains largely predictable. Demand for new build housing remains strong and house prices reasonably stable. This is maintaining continued profitability in the sector despite upward pressure on materials. Although work patterns can time to time be impacted by clients delaying the phasing of work, the strong order book and the spread of work and customers helps to mitigate this.
Customers and contracts are chosen carefully for their match to the company capabilities. Only contracts offering sufficient profitability are undertaken. The risk of significant default by any customer continues to be mitigated by most of the work being undertaken for only those who can be fully insured.
The director continue to keep in place opportunities for trade finance to assist when additional support is required for short term borrowings. Planning for future cash requirements remains a consideration to ensure that the order book can be fulfilled.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS, AS A BODY, OF ARROWCRUIT HOLDINGS LIMITED
 

UNQUALIFIED OPINION


We have audited the financial statements of Arrowcruit Holdings Limited (the 'parent company') and its subsidiaries (the 'group') for the year ended 31 December 2024, which comprise the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income, the Consolidated Balance Sheet, the Company Balance Sheet, the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows, the Consolidated Statement of Changes in Equity, the Company Statement of Changes in Equity and the related notes, including a summary of significant accounting policiesThe 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's affairs as at 31 December 2024 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 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.


CONCLUSIONS RELATING TO GOING CONCERN


In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the director's 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 or 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 director with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.

OTHER INFORMATION


The other information comprises the information included in the Annual Report other than the financial statements and our Auditors' Report thereon. The director is responsible for the other information contained within the Annual ReportOur 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.


OPINION 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 Director's Report for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and
the Group Strategic Report and the Director's Report 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 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 Director's Report.


We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which 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 director's 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 Director's Responsibilities Statement set out on page 1, the director is 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 director determines is 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 director is 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 director either intends to liquidate the group or the parent company or to cease operations, or has 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 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 Group 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 area 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 mistatement 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 identified that the greatest potential for fraud in the following areas: recognition and completeness of income and management override of controls (especially the posting of journals). We discussed these risks with management and designed audit procedures to test the recognition and completeness of revenue. We reviewed journals posted to key control accounts or posted around the year end, to look for potential "window dressing" as well as looking at a sample throughout the year.


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.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024

1.


GENERAL INFORMATION

The company is a private company, limited by shares, incorporated in England and Wales and its registered office is:-
White House Farm
Sandy Lane West
Billingham
Stockton on Tees
TS22 5NB

2.ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 
2.1

Basis of preparation of financial statements

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention unless otherwise specified within these accounting policies and in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland and the Companies Act 2006.

The preparation of financial statements in compliance with FRS 102 requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires group management to exercise judgement in applying the group's accounting policies (see note 3).

The company has taken advantage of the exemption allowed under section 408 of the Companies Act 2006 and has not presented its own Statement of Comprehensive Income in these financial statements.

The following principal accounting policies have been applied:

 
2.2

Basis of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements present the results of the company and its own subsidiaries ("the group") as if they form a single entity. Intercompany transactions and balances between group companies are therefore eliminated in full.
The consolidated financial statements incorporate the results of 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.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024

2.ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

 
2.3

Revenue

Revenue is recognised to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the group and the revenue can be reliably measured. Revenue is measured as the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, excluding discounts, rebates, value added tax and other sales taxes. The following criteria must also be met before revenue is recognised:

Sale of goods

Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised when all of the following conditions are satisfied:
the group has transferred the significant risks and rewards of ownership to the buyer;
the group retains neither continuing managerial involvement to the degree usually associated with ownership nor effective control over the goods sold;
the amount of revenue can be measured reliably;
it is probable that the group will receive the consideration due under the transaction; and
the costs incurred or to be incurred in respect of the transaction can be measured reliably.

Rendering of services

Revenue from a contract to provide services is recognised in the period in which the services are provided in accordance with the stage of completion of the contract when all of the following conditions are satisfied:
the amount of revenue can be measured reliably;
it is probable that the group will receive the consideration due under the contract;
the stage of completion of the contract at the end of the reporting period can be measured reliably; and
the costs incurred and the costs to complete the contract can be measured reliably.

  
2.4

Going concern

The director has prepared projected cash flow information for a period of at least twelve months from the date of their approval of the financial statements. The director has also continued finance from their bankers and management have potential alternative sources of finance to draw upon if required. On the basis of this cash flow information, the director considers that the company will continue to operate within the available cash funds.  Therefore, the director considers it appropriate to prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis.

 
2.5

Government grants

Grants are accounted under the accruals model as permitted by FRS 102. Grants relating to expenditure on tangible fixed assets are credited to profit or loss at the same rate as the depreciation on the assets to which the grant relates. The deferred element of grants is included in creditors as deferred income.
Grants of a revenue nature are recognised in the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income in the same period as the related expenditure.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024

2.ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

 
2.6

Current and deferred taxation

The tax expense for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in profit or loss except that a charge attributable to an item of income and expense recognised as other comprehensive income or to an item recognised directly in equity is also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity respectively.

The current income tax charge is calculated on the basis of tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date in the countries where the company and the group operate and generate income.


 
2.7

Exceptional items

Exceptional items are transactions that fall within the ordinary activities of the group but are presented separately due to their size or incidence.

 
2.8

Intangible assets

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the difference between 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, goodwill is measured at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses. Goodwill is amortised on a straight-line basis to the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income over its useful economic life.

Other intangible assets

Intangible assets are initially recognised at cost. After recognition, under the cost model, intangible assets are measured at cost less any accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses.

Computer software will be depreciated over a period of five years, and will commence when the software is used.

 
2.9

Tangible fixed assets

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.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024

2.ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)


2.9
Tangible fixed assets (continued)

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:

Freehold property
-
50 years straight line
Plant and machinery
-
3-7 years straight line and 20% reducing balance basis
Motor vehicles
-
3-7 years straight line
Fixtures and fittings
-
3-5 years straight line

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.

 
2.10

Valuation of investments

Investments in subsidiaries are measured at cost less accumulated impairment.

 
2.11

Stocks

Stocks are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value, being the estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell. Cost is based on the cost of purchase on a first in, first out basis. Work in progress and finished goods include labour and attributable overheads.

At each balance sheet date, stocks are assessed for impairment. If stock is impaired, the carrying amount is reduced to its selling price less costs to complete and sell. The impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss.

  
2.12

Long term work in progress

Profit on long term contracts is taken as the work is carried out if the final outcome can be assessed with reasonable certainty. The profit included is calculated on a prudent basis to reflect the proportion of work carried out at the year end by recording turnover and related costs as a contract activity advances. Turnover is calculated as that proportion of total contract value which costs incurred to date bear to total expected costs for that contract. Profits can vary as a contract progresses. Full provision is made for losses on all contracts in the year in which they are first foreseen.

  
2.13

Financial instruments

The company only enters into basic financial instrument transactions that result in the recognition of financial assets and liabilities like trade and other debtors and creditors, loans from banks, other third parties and loans to related parties.

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. These estimates and judgements are continually reviewed and are based on experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.
Significant judgements
The judgements and key source of estimation uncertainty that management has made in the process of applying the entity’s accounting policies and that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements are as follows:
Long term contracts
The director accounts for long term contracts using the stage of completion method as the contract progresses. This method requirements judgement which is based on their knowledge and experience, to accurately estimate the extent of progress towards contract completion and may involve estimates of total contract costs to completion, total revenues, contract risks and other judgements. 
The accounting estimates and assumptions are made concerning the future and by their nature, will rarely equal the related actual outcome. 
Related party debtor 
At the reporting date there was £257,933 owed by companies that are a related party (companies under common control). These companies are in their infancy and development stage still incurring research and development costs. The directors consider this debt to be recoverable, but this is dependent upon the profitable execution of new orders now in the pipeline.

Innovation Developments NE Limited - loss for the year
231,774

231,774

On the 1 January 2024 Arrowcruit Holdings Ltd (ACH) acquired 60% share capital of Innovation Developments NE Ltd (IDNE). IDNE was focused on the construction of social housing for national housing associations. By mid-2024 IDNE was expecting orders for two projects based in the North-East of England. In July 2024 there was a change in Government, which brought about budget uncertainties for the national housing associations. By Q4 budget uncertainties continued and it looked unlikely that IDNE would receive any orders. At this point the Directors of IDNE agreed that the company should cease trading. The loss attributable to the owners of the parent company is £139k (60%).
