Introduction

 

The Directors present the Strategic Report and audited financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2025.

 

Ecogee (the company) is a renewables and retrofit specialist firm providing solutions across the Northwest. Ecogee was established in 2012, in response to the launch of the Government energy efficiency programme, Energy Company Obligation (ECO).

 

Ecogee was acquired by The Regenda Group in March 2023, with the following corporate objectives:

 

 

Ecogee will sit alongside sister company M&Y Maintenance and Construction, these 2 businesses will work closely together to strengthen their offer, based on the following principles:

 

Review of the business

During the 2024/5 financial period, Ecogee achieved a post-tax profit of £1.1m (7%), compared to £2.0m (11%) in 2023/24. The net profit decreased in this period due to increased investment in business growth, leading to higher staffing, insurance, and inter-company charges. Additionally, profitability was impacted by reduced Eco works turnover and net profit, as Scottish Power overcommitted work nationally, lowering the order book and fitting charges for retrofit measures.

 

Ecogee delivers both grant and privately funded energy efficiency works including:

Operating context

 

In 2024, the UK government has continued to support energy efficiency through various grants aimed at reducing energy consumption, lowering costs, and cutting carbon emissions. These grants are part of the wider effort to decarbonise the country and meet net-zero goals. With the new Labour government, 2025 promises to introduce even more ambitious policies and funding to accelerate these efforts.

 

A variety of grants are already in place to help households and businesses in the UK improve energy efficiency, below are grants Ecogee are currently delivering:

 

 

The Labour government, elected in 2024, is expected to introduce major policies in 2025 to build on the existing energy efficiency initiatives. Including the ‘Warm Homes Plan’ (some of the funding which forms part of this is listed above), which will see an investment of £6.6billion to upgrade five million homes across the UK.

 

The plan is to provide grants and low-interest loans to households to install insulation, solar panels, batteries, and low-carbon heating systems like heat pumps. By increasing the energy efficiency of these homes, the Warm Homes Plan hopes to lower energy bills for millions of residents while contributing to the country’s broader decarbonisation goals.

 

The future of energy efficiency in the UK is set for major transformation in 2025, with new policies and grants expected to be announced by the Labour government.

 

The market competition for Ecogee is increasing. However, many have not fully recognised the complex systems needed to meet all quality and volume requirements. Several contractors have not met these standards, resulting in Ecogee taking over incomplete projects. Ecogee has 13 years of experience in this market and provides a turnkey model that supports clients from securing suitable funding to designing work programmes for optimal efficiency and completing the works. All this is managed and delivered by an experienced in-house team.

ECOGEE LIMITED
STRATEGIC REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025
- 3 -

Ecogee projects a turnover of £22 million for the fiscal year 2025/2026, with a post-tax profit of £1.7 million or 8%, consistent with the post-tax profit achieved in 2024/2025. The projected turnover represents a 29% increase compared to the £17 million turnover in 2024/2025. Of this projected turnover, £4 million or 18% will be generated from Scottish Power Eco works, £10.2 million or 46% from the Warm Homes Fund (formerly known as SHDF), £4 million or 18% from the Local Grant Fund (formerly known as HUG), and the remaining £4 million or 18% has been secured through contracts with two Registered Providers (Great Places and Weavervale) to deliver Warm Homes Funded works. Consequently, the full £22 million turnover for 2025/2026 is secured.

Principal risks and uncertainties

Ecogee have a strategic and operational risk register in place which is reviewed and updated monthly as part of the Strategic Directors Meeting and reported quarterly into the M&Y and Ecogee Board Meeting.

 

In addition to the above, Ecogee produces an annual Business Plan which includes operating context, a detailed PESTLE and SWOT analysis, strategic and operational objectives, delivery and resource plan, key customer information, risk management and financial projections.

 

Ecogee operates in the construction, renewables and housing market and therefore face market, political and economic risk relating to the housing and renewables industry; however, we mitigate these risks by the following:

 

 

Risks and uncertainties outside of Ecogee’s control include those relating to Government Policy and alterations to legislative and taxation framework in which Ecogee operate.

 

There are several emerging risks (and opportunities) under consideration including:

 

Key performance indicators

Ecogee will make a financial investment in 2025 to enhance their performance analysis and reporting capabilities.

A new job management system is being implemented called Instalr. This system has been developed to support businesses who deliver installations like Ecogee. The system can manage leads, validate data, manage appointments and documentation, and will help to increase productivity by reducing the manual data entry required.

The system will enable the team to input customers and leads into the system, plan and book the surveys and installations and, once the work is completed, to support the submissions, reporting and job analysis.

Ecogee have improved the energy efficiency of in excess of over 700 homes in 2024/5, working with our various public sector clients across a variety of government funding streams. Ecogee current customer satisfaction rate is averaging at 98% across all services delivered in 2024/5.

Ecogee will be in a position to report more effectively on customer satisfaction following the implementation of Instalr in the summer 2025.

Future Developments

Ecogee will start the first retrofit programme for Regenda Homes in 2025-26. The initial year's work will focus on homes in Wyre with the least efficient EPC ratings. Ecogee will also address any damp and mould issues identified through retrofit assessment surveys across all Regenda homes.

 

Ecogee has demonstrated strong turnover growth and financial performance over the past two years, generating in excess of £3.3 million in gift aid contributions to the Group.

 

In 2025, the renewable energy sector is projected to experience considerable growth, driven by government policies, investment in energy improvements, declining costs of renewable technologies, and increased demand for sustainable energy solutions.

 

Ecogee has invested in senior and strategic roles, merged offices with M&Y and adopted new technology to ensure effective delivery of an increased turnover of £22 million (£17 million achieved in 2024/25, representing a 29% increase).

 

Ecogee has established a comprehensive Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) Strategy that addresses various outputs of our organisation, including social value, to promote more sustainable and ethical practices. To ensure accountability and engagement, Ecogee has appointed eight ESG Champions from across the business, who provide staff feedback and maintain focus and commitment to the objectives and targets outlined in the ESG Strategy.

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.

Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of Ecogee Limited (the 'company') for the year ended 31 March 2025 which comprise the statement of comprehensive income, the balance sheet, the statement of changes in equity and notes to the financial statements, including 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:

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 Auditor's 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 other information comprises the information included in the annual report other than the financial statements and our auditor's 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.

Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006

In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of our audit:

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 directors' 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:

Responsibilities of directors

As explained more fully in the directors' responsibilities statement, 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 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 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.

Auditor's 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 auditor's 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.

The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud, is detailed below.

Extent to which the audit was considered capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud

We identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, and then design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, including obtaining audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Identifying and assessing potential risks related to irregularities

In identifying and assessing risks of material misstatement in respect of irregularities, including fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations, we considered the following:

 

 

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 areas:

 

(i) The presentation of the Profit and Loss Account, (ii) the accounting policy for revenue recognition (iii) amounts recoverable on WIP, (iv) understatement of creditors. 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 also obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory framework 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.

 

In addition, we considered provisions of other laws and regulations that do not have a direct effect on the financial statements but compliance with which may be fundamental to the company’s ability to operate or to avoid a material penalty.

Audit response to risks identified

Our procedures to respond to risks identified included the following:

 

 

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.

ECOGEE LIMITED
INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
TO THE MEMBERS OF ECOGEE LIMITED (CONTINUED)
- 10 -

Owing to the inherent limitations of an audit, there is a risk that we will not detect all irregularities, including those leading to a material misstatement in the financial statements or non-compliance with regulation.  This risk increases the more that compliance with a law or regulation is removed from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, as we will be less likely to become aware of instances of non-compliance. The risk is also greater regarding irregularities occurring due to fraud rather than error, as fraud involves intentional concealment, forgery, collusion, omission or misrepresentation.

 

A further description of our responsibilities is available on the Financial Reporting Council’s website at: https://www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditor's report.

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 an auditor's report 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.

Accounting policies
Company information

Ecogee Limited is a private company limited by shares incorporated in England and Wales. The registered office is The Foundry, 42 Henry Street, Liverpool, Merseyside, L1 5AY. The principal place of business of the company is Bold Business Centre, Bold Lane, St Helens, Merseyside WA9 4TX.

1.1
Accounting convention

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with FRS 102 “The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland” (“FRS 102”) and the requirements of the Companies Act 2006.

The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the company. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.

This company is a qualifying entity for the purposes of FRS 102, being a member of a group where the parent of that group prepares publicly available consolidated financial statements, including this company, which are intended to give a true and fair view of the assets, liabilities, financial position and profit or loss of the group. The company has therefore taken advantage of exemptions from the following disclosure requirements:

 

 

The financial statements of the company are consolidated in the financial statements of Regenda Limited. These consolidated financial statements are available from its registered office, The Foundry, 42 Henry Street, Liverpool, L1 5AY.

1.2
Going concern

The Company has been profitable and is expected to remain so in future years. After a thorough review considering the impact of inflation and the challenging economic environment on all assets, liabilities and commitments, the Board are assured that there are sufficient cash reserves in place to meet liabilities as they fall due for a period of at least 12 months from the date of approval of these financial statements.true

 

Whilst the ongoing situation presents a number of challenges and uncertainties, this has not had any significant impact on the operations of the Company at the time of approving these financial statements.

 

Therefore, the Board continues to adopt the going concern basis in the financial statements.

1.3
Turnover

Turnover comprises the fair value of the consideration received or receivable for the sale of goods and provision of services in the ordinary course of the Company's activities. Turnover is shown net of sales/value added tax, returns, rebates and discounts.

 

The company recognises revenue when:

1.4
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.

Depreciation is charged so as to allocate the cost of assets less their residual value over their estimated useful lives, on a reducing balance basis.

 

Depreciation is provided on the following basis:

Plant and equipment
20% reducing balance
Fixtures and fittings
20% reducing balance
Motor vehicles
20% reducing balance

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 the Statement of Comprehensive Income.

1.5
Impairment of fixed assets

At each reporting period end date, the company reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any). Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the company estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.

Recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset for which the estimates of future cash flows have not been adjusted.

 

If the recoverable amount of an asset (or cash-generating unit) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset (or cash-generating unit) is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss, unless the relevant asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation decrease.

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025

Accounting policies
(Continued)
- 16 -

Recognised impairment losses are reversed if, and only if, the reasons for the impairment loss have ceased to apply. Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset (or cash-generating unit) is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but so that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset (or cash-generating unit) in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss, unless the relevant asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case the reversal of the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation increase.

1.6
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 the Statement of Comprehensive Income..

1.7
Cash and cash equivalents

Cash is represented by cash in hand and deposits with financial institutions repayable without penalty on notice of not more than 24 hours. Cash equivalents are highly liquid investments that mature in no more than three months from the date of acquisition and that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash with insignificant risk of change in value.

1.8
Financial instruments

Financial liabilities and equity are classified according to the substance of the financial instrument's contractual obligations, rather than its legal form.

 

The Company's cash at bank and in hand, other debtors and its other creditors are measured initially at the transaction price, including transaction costs, and subsequently at amortised cost

using the effective interest method.

Basic financial assets

Basic financial assets, which include debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method 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. Financial assets classified as receivable within one year are not amortised.

Other financial assets

Other financial assets, including investments in equity instruments which are not subsidiaries, associates or joint ventures, are initially measured at fair value, which is normally the transaction price. Such assets are subsequently carried at fair value and the changes in fair value are recognised in profit or loss, except that investments in equity instruments that are not publicly traded and whose fair values cannot be measured reliably are measured at cost less impairment.

Impairment of financial assets

Financial assets, other than those held at fair value through profit and loss, are assessed for indicators of impairment at each reporting end date.

 

Financial assets are impaired where there is objective evidence that, as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the financial asset, the estimated future cash flows have been affected. 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.

 

If there is a decrease in the impairment loss arising from an event occurring after the impairment was recognised, the impairment is reversed. The reversal is such that the current carrying amount does not exceed what the carrying amount would have been, had the impairment not previously been recognised. The impairment reversal is recognised in profit or loss.

Derecognition of financial assets

Financial assets are derecognised only when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire or are settled, or when the company transfers the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to another entity, or if some significant risks and rewards of ownership are retained but control of the asset has transferred to another party that is able to sell the asset in its entirety to an unrelated third party.

Classification of 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 deducting all of its liabilities.

Basic financial liabilities

Basic financial liabilities, including creditors, bank loans, loans from fellow group companies and preference shares that are classified as debt, are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortised.

 

Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method.

 

Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. Amounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade creditors are recognised initially at transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

Other financial liabilities

Derivatives, including interest rate swaps and forward foreign exchange contracts, are not basic financial instruments. Derivatives are initially recognised at fair value on the date a derivative contract is entered into and are subsequently re-measured at their fair value. Changes in the fair value of derivatives are recognised in profit or loss in finance costs or finance income as appropriate, unless hedge accounting is applied and the hedge is a cash flow hedge.

 

Debt instruments that do not meet the conditions in FRS 102 paragraph 11.9 are subsequently measured at fair value through profit or loss. Debt instruments may be designated as being measured at fair value through profit or loss to eliminate or reduce an accounting mismatch or if the instruments are measured and their performance evaluated on a fair value basis in accordance with a documented risk management or investment strategy.

Derecognition of financial liabilities

Financial liabilities are derecognised when the company’s contractual obligations expire or are discharged or cancelled.

Equity instruments

Equity instruments issued by the company are recorded at the proceeds received, net of transaction costs. Dividends payable on equity instruments are recognised as liabilities once they are no longer at the discretion of the company.

1.10
Taxation

The tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax.

Current tax

The tax expense for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income 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 reporting date in the countries where the Company operates and generates income.

 

Deferred tax

Deferred tax balances are recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed by the Balance Sheet date, except that:

 

 

Deferred tax balances are not recognised in respect of permanent differences except in respect of business combinations, when deferred tax is recognised on the differences between the fair values of assets acquired and the future tax deductions available for them and the differences between the fair values of liabilities acquired and the amount that will be assessed for tax. Deferred tax is determined using tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the Balance Sheet date

 

1.11
Employee benefits

The costs of short-term employee benefits are recognised as a liability and an expense, unless those costs are required to be recognised as part of the cost of stock or fixed assets.

 

The cost of any unused holiday entitlement is recognised in the period in which the employee’s services are received.

 

Termination benefits are recognised immediately as an expense when the company is demonstrably committed to terminate the employment of an employee or to provide termination benefits.

1.12
Retirement benefits

The Company operates a defined contribution plan for its employees. A defined contribution plan is a pension plan under which the Company pays fixed contributions into a separate entity. Once the contributions have been paid the Company has no further payment obligations.

 

The contributions are recognised as an expense in profit or loss when they fall due. Amounts not paid are shown in accruals as a liability in the Statement of Financial Position. The assets of the plan are held separately from the Company in independently administered funds.

Leases
As lessee

Assets obtained under hire purchase contracts and finance leases are capitalised as tangible fixed assets. Assets acquired by finance lease are depreciated over the shorter of the lease term and their useful lives. Assets acquired by hire purchase are depreciated over their useful lives. Finance leases are those where substantially all of the benefits and risks of ownership are assumed by the company. Obligations under such agreements are included in creditors net of the finance charge allocated to future periods. The finance element of the rental payment is charged to profit or loss so as to produce a constant periodic rate of charge on the net obligation outstanding in each period.

1.14

Interest Income

Interest income is recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income using the effective interest method.

1.15

Gift aid

Gift aid payments to the parent charity are considered to be distributions under company law and, as such, are accounted for as a distribution within equity at such time as a legal obligation to make the payment exists. Paragraph 29.14A of FRS 102 requires the tax effects of the expected gift aid payment to be taken into account when it is probable that the gift aid payment will be made within 9 months of the reporting date, which may result in the tax relief being recognised in the financial statements before the gift aid payment itself is recognised.

2
Judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty

In the application of the company’s accounting policies, the directors are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

 

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. 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.

Key sources of estimation uncertainty

The estimates and assumptions which have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets and liabilities are as follows.

Recoverability of debtors

Bad debts are recognised where there are indicators of non-recoverability, and appropriate action has been taken to recover the debt unsuccessfully. When assessing recoverability, the directors consider factors such as the ageing of the receivables, past experience of recoverability, and the credit profile of individual groups of customers.

Amounts recoverable on contracts

Amounts recoverable on contracts are recognised based on the estimated value of work performed but not yet billed at the reporting date. The estimation process involves assessing the stage of completion of the contract, the agreed contract terms, and the likelihood of recovery.

Accrued expenditure

Accruals are recognised for expenses incurred but not yet paid at the reporting date. The estimation process involves assessing the timing and amount of the expenses based on the best available information.
