Additional information
Principal risks and uncertainties In February 2022, the Ukraine war started. This has had a significant impact on global supply chains and on oil and energy prices. The directors continue to monitor the impact of this and other geopolitical risks on the business. The other risks and uncertainties faced by the business are those typical of the industrial fasteners sector. These influences include the slowdown in the economy, the inflation rate, the level of competition, investment and activity and new entrants to the market in which we operate. These risks are mitigated by the company’s strong balance sheet, long standing reputation and tradition within the sector. Thus, the directors consider the company’s financial risk profile to be low. Dividend The directors do not recommend a payment of a dividend in the current year (2023: Stg£Nil). Directors In accordance with the Articles of Association, the directors are not required to retire by rotation. The directors and secretary, who held office at 31 December 2024 are outlined on page 1. Going concern The directors have given careful consideration to the risks (as outlined above) that exist at the date of approval of these financial statements and the related impact on the going concern basis of preparation. The directors have also considered its cash reserves on hand at the time of approval of the financial statements and trading performance post year end. As a consequence, the directors believe that the company is well placed to manage its business risks successfully. The directors believe that sufficient financial resources are available to enable the company to meet its obligations as they fall due, covering a period of not less than 12 months from the date of approval of the financial statements. In forming their view, the directors continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing these financial statements. Post balance sheet events There have been no significant events since the balance sheet date which would require disclosure in or amendment of these financial statements. Strategic report exemption The company has availed of the exemption under the Companies Act 2006 (Strategic Report and Directors’ Report) Regulations 2013 from implementing the Strategic Report requirements as the company qualifies as a small company for company law purposes. Disclosure of information to auditor The directors who held office at the date of approval of this directors’ report confirm that, so far as they are each aware, there is no relevant audit information of which the company’s auditor is unaware; and each director has taken all the steps that he ought to have taken as a director to make himself aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the company’s auditor is aware of that information. Auditor Pursuant to Section 487 of the Companies Act 2006 the auditor will be deemed to be reappointed and KPMG will therefore continue in office.
