| STRATEGIC REPORT |
| FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024 |
| The directors present their strategic report for the year ended 31 December 2024. |
| REVIEW OF BUSINESS |
| The results for the year and financial position of the company are as shown in the financial statements. |
| The company continued with its activities of the supply and fixing of bric a brac, furniture and fixed seating during the year under review. |
| The key financial highlights of the company are as follows: |
| 2024 | 2023 |
| Turnover | £14.4m | £12.0m |
| Gross profit margin | 21.4% | 19.9% |
| Net assets | £535k | £479k |
| Capital expenditure | £36k | £138k |
| The directors consider the profit achieved on ordinary activities before taxation and the state of the company's affairs to be satisfactory. |
| During the year, the company saw sales grow by 20.5%. This was due to some major jobs earned during the year. |
| There continues to be the pressure of rising material costs. The company was also subject to rising labour costs in a competitive market and saw the average number of employees rise by 14 to cope with the rising demand. Despite these cost pressures, the company managed to improve its gross profit margin by 1.5%. |
| PRINCIPAL RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES |
| The management of the business and the execution of the company's strategy are subject to several risks, especially in the current economic climate. |
| With forecasted increases in spending within the hospitality industry, the company is focussed on retaining its position as a market leader and continuing to deliver a quality service. |
| FUTURE DEVELOPMENTS |
| As referred to above, the company's strategic plan through 2025 will continue to see investment in new capital to ensure increased sales into our core market, whilst assisting in the management of costs and increased efficiency. |
| This will enable the company to deliver its strategic objectives for the year. |

| 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 or she ought to have taken as a director in order to make himself or herself aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the company's auditors are aware of that information. |

| REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS |
| FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024 |
| AUDITORS |
| The auditors, Fawcetts LLP, will be proposed for re-appointment at the forthcoming Annual General Meeting. |
| ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD: |
| REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF |
| INN GEAR LIMITED |
| Opinion |
| We have audited the financial statements of Inn Gear Limited (the 'company') for the year ended 31 December 2024 which comprise the Statement of Income and Retained Earnings, Balance Sheet, 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 qualified 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 |
| INN GEAR 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. |
| Except for the possible effects of the matter described in the basis of qualified opinion section of our report, in our our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Strategic Report or the Report of the Directors. |
| Arising solely from the limitation on the scope of our work relating to inventory, referred to above: |
| - | we have not obtained all the information and explanations that we considered necessary for the purpose of our audit; and |
| - | we were unable to determine whether adequate accounting records have been kept; or |
| 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: |
| - | 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. |
| 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 |
| INN GEAR 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: |
| Identifying and assessing potential risks related to irregularities including fraud |
| In identifying and assessing risks of material misstatement in respect of irregularities, including fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations, we consider the following: |
| - | the nature of the industry/sector, control environment and financial performance; |
| - | results of our enquiries of management about their own identification and assessment of the risk of irregularities; |
| - | any matters we identified having obtained and reviewed the company's documentation of their policies and procedures relating to: |
| - | identifying, evaluating and complying with laws and regulations and whether they were aware of any instances of non-compliance; |
| - | detecting and responding to the risks of fraud and whether they have knowledge of any actual, suspected or alleged fraud; and |
| - | the internal controls established to mitigate risks of fraud or non-compliance with laws and regulations. |
| - | the matters discussed among the audit engagement team regarding how and where fraud might occur in the financial statements and any potential indicators of fraud. |
| As a result of these procedures, we considered the opportunities and incentives that may exist within the organisation for fraud and identified the greatest potential for fraud in the following area: revenue and profit recognition. In common with all audits under ISAs (UK), we are also required to perform specific procedures to respond to the risk of management override. |
| We have also obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory frameworks that the company operates in, focusing on provisions of those laws and regulations that had a direct effect on the determination of material amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The key laws and regulations we considered in this context included the UK Companies Act and tax legislation. |
| Audit response to risk identified |
| As a result of performing the above, we identified revenue and profit recognition, stock valuation, estimation techniques and management override of controls as key matters related to the potential risk of fraud or material misstatement. Our procedures to respond to risks identified included the following: |
| - | reviewing the financial statement disclosures and testing to supporting documentation to assess compliance with provisions of relevant laws and regulations described as having a direct effect on the financial statements; |
| - | enquiring of management concerning actual and potential litigation and claims; |
| - | performing analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected relationships that may indicate risks of material misstatement due to fraud; |
| - | performing substantive procedures to ascertain the completeness, existence, valuation, and rights and obligations of stocks as at the year-end; |
| - | understanding the company's revenue recognition policies and how they are applied, including the relevant controls and processes and performing a walk-through to validate our understanding; |
| - | performing analytical procedures to compare revenue recognised against expectations, past results, and management forecasts, and investigated material divergences by obtaining corroborative evidence; |
| - | reading minutes of meetings of those charged with governance and reviewing any correspondence with HMRC; and |
| REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF |
| INN GEAR LIMITED |
| - | in addressing the risk of fraud through management override of controls, testing the appropriateness of journal entries and other adjustments; assessing whether the judgements made in making accounting estimates are indicative of a potential bias; and evaluating the business rationale of any significant transactions that are unusual or outside the normal course of business. |
| We also communicated relevant identified laws and regulations and potential fraud risks to all engagement team members and remained alert to any indications of fraud or non-compliance with laws and regulations throughout the audit. |
| Owing to the inherent limitations of an audit, there is an unavoidable risk that we may not have detected some material misstatements in the financial statements, even though we have properly planned and performed our audit in accordance with auditing standards. For example, the further removed non-compliance with laws and regulations (irregularities) is from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, the less likely the inherently limited procedures required by auditing standards would identify it. In addition, as with any audit, there remained a higher risk of non-detection of irregularities, as these may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal controls. We are not responsible for preventing non-compliance and 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. |
| 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. |

| Inn Gear Limited is a |
| 2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
| Basis of preparing the financial statements |
| The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis and are presented in Sterling (£) which is the functional currency of the company. |
| The significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all years presented unless otherwise stated. |
| Turnover |
| Turnover represents net sales during the year (excluding Value Added Tax) adjusted for accrued and deferred income where applicable. Turnover includes revenue earned from the sale of goods and from the rendering of services. |
| Sale of goods: |
| Turnover from the sale of goods is recognised when the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods has transferred to the buyer. This is usually at the point of despatch. |
| Rendering of services: |
| Turnover from the rendering of services is recognised by reference to the stage of completion of the contract. The stage of completion of a contract is measured by comparing the costs incurred for work performed to date to the total estimated contract costs. Turnover is only recognised to the extent of recoverable expenses when the outcome of a contract cannot be estimated reliably. |
| Construction Contracts: |
| Turnover is recognised using a percentage-of-completion method when outcomes can be reliably estimated, or by expensing costs only to the extent of probable recovery if outcomes are uncertain. If the outcome cannot be reliably estimated, recognise revenue only to the extent that costs incurred are probable of being recovered. |
| All turnover and profits arise within the UK and from one class of business being the supply and fixing of bric-a-brac to the hospitality industry. |
| Tangible fixed assets |
| Plant and machinery | - |
| Motor vehicles | - |
| Expenditure on fixed assets is capitalised except for expenditure incurred on the replacement of assets of low value with a short life. Repair, renovation and replacement expenditure is written off as expenditure in the profit and loss account. The cost of fixed assets is their purchase cost, together with any incidental costs of acquisition. |

| NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - continued |
| FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024 |
| 2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued |
| Stocks and work in progress |
| Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value, after making due allowance for obsolete and slow moving items. Net realisable value is based on estimated selling price less additional costs to completion. |
| Work in progress is valued on the basis of direct costs plus attributable overheads based on normal levels of activity. Provision is made for foreseeable losses where appropriate. No element of profit is included in the valuation of work in progress. |
| Cost includes all direct expenditure and an appropriate proportion of fixed and variable overheads. |
| 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. |
| Hire purchase and leasing commitments |
| Assets obtained under hire purchase contracts or finance leases are capitalised in the balance sheet. Those held under hire purchase contracts are depreciated over their estimated useful lives. Those held under finance leases are depreciated over their estimated useful lives or the lease term, whichever is the shorter. |
| The interest element of these obligations is charged to profit or loss over the relevant period. The capital element of the future payments is treated as a liability. |
| Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to profit or loss on a straight line basis over the period of the lease. |
| 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. |
| Debtors |
| Debtors are measured at their recoverable amount. |

| Creditors and provisions |
| Creditors and provisions are recognised where the company has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due. |
