The directors present their strategic report of the company and the group for the year ended 31st December 2024.

REVIEW OF BUSINESS

We aim to present a balanced and comprehensive review of the development and performance of our business

during the year and its position at the year end. Our review is consistent with the size and nature of our business

and written in the context of the risk and uncertainties we face.

Turnover for UK group operations increased from £14,939,854 in 2023 to £26,376,058 in 2024.

The cost of sales also increased from £12,960,303 in 2023 to £22,699,788 in 2024 resulting in a gross profit for

the year of £3,676,270 compared with £1,979,551 in the previous year.

The gross profit represents 13.94% of turnover, an increase of 0.69% from 13.25% in the previous year.

Considering other income, expenditure and finance costs, the group made a net profit for the year before

taxation of £1,891,079 compared with a net profit of £300,576 in the previous year.

KEY PERFORMANCE INDICATORS

The profit before tax % has increased by 5.16% from 2.01% in 2023 to 7.17% in 2024, largely as a result of increased activity.

The group's ability to cover short-term obligations due within 1 year has remained consistent this year with a current ratio of 1.59 for both 2023 and 2024.

PRINCIPAL RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

The industry in which the group operates is subject to numerous external factors and as a result, the risks and

uncertainties the group is likely to face are as follows:

i) Continuing to secure substantial contracts in a competitive industry.

FUTURE EXPECTATIONS

We aim to build on the organic growth of the group by adding to the portfolio of services.

STREAMLINED ENERGY AND CARBON REPORTING

As per our ISO accreditation, the group seeks to reduce the carbon footprint wherever possible.

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The company's financial instruments comprise of bank balances, trade debtors, trade creditors, hire purchase loans and bank loans.

Due to the nature of the financial instruments used by the company there is no exposure to price risk. The company's approach to managing other risks applicable to the financial statements concerned is shown below:

In respect of bank balances, liquidity is managed by maintaining sufficient cash balances.

Trade debtors are managed in respect of credit and cash flow risk by policies concerning the credit offered to customers and the monitoring of amounts outstanding for both time and credit limits.

Trade creditors liquidity risk is managed by ensuring sufficient funds are available to meet amounts due.

ENGAGEMENT WITH EMPLOYEES

During the year, the policy remained of providing employees with information about the group.

STATEMENT OF DIRECTORS' RESPONSIBILITIES

The directors are responsible for preparing the Group 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 the group and of the profit or loss of the group 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 and the group's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the company and the group 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 the group 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 group's auditors are unaware, and each director has taken all the steps that he ought to have taken as a director in order to make himself aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the group's auditors are aware of that information.

AUDITORS

The auditors, Green & Co, will be proposed for re-appointment at the forthcoming Annual General Meeting.

ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD:

B D Dommett - Director

26th September 2025

Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of GME Holdings Limited (the 'parent company') and its subsidiaries (the 'group') for the year ended 31st December 2024 which comprise the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income, Consolidated Balance Sheet, Company Balance Sheet, Consolidated Statement of Changes in Equity, Company Statement of Changes in Equity, Consolidated Cash Flow Statement and Notes to the Consolidated 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 group's and of the parent company affairs as at 31st 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 did not observe the counting of physical stock of the subsidiary, Global Maritime Engineering Services Limited at 31 December 2023 and 31 December 2024 and are unable to satisfy oursevles by alternative means concerning the opening stock quantities at 31 December 2023 and 31 December 2024, which are included in the balance sheet at £130,448 (2023) and £137,261 (2024), by using other audit procedures.

However, these values are not material to the accounts and therefore no impact on our audit 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 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 group's and 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 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 Group 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 Group 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 Group Strategic Report and the Report of the Directors 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 Report of the Directors.

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters where 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 directors' 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 Statement of Directors' Responsibilities set out on page five, 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 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 directors either intend to liquidate the group or the parent company or to cease operations, or have 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 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:

We obtain and update our understanding of the entity, its activities, its control environment, and likely future

developments, including in relation to the legal and regulatory framework applicable and how the entity is

complying with that framework. Based on this understanding, we identify and assess the risks of material

misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures

responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our

opinion. This includes consideration of the risk of acts by the entity that were contrary to applicable laws and

regulations, including fraud.

In response to the risk or irregularities and non-compliance with laws and regulations, including fraud, we

designed procedures which included:

* Enquiry of management and those charged with governance around actual and potential litigation and claims

as actual, suspected and alleged fraud;

* Assessing the extent of compliance with the laws and regulations considered to have a direct material effect on

the financial statements or the operations of the entity through enquiry and inspection;

* Reviewing financial statement disclosures and testing to supporting documentation to assess compliance with

applicable laws and regulations;

* Performing audit work over the risk of management bias and override of controls, including testing of journal

entries and other adjustments for appropriateness, evaluating the business rationale of significant transactions

outside the normal course of business and reviewing accounting estimates or indicators of potential bias.

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.

Basis of preparing the financial statements

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland" and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.

Basis of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the company and entities controlled by the company (its ''subsidiaries'') made up to 31 December. Generally control is achieved where the company owns more than one half of the issued voting share capital.

Related party exemption

The group has taken advantage of exemption, under the terms of Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland', not to disclose related party transactions with wholly owned subsidiaries within the group.

Transactions between group entities which have been eliminated on consolidation are not disclosed within the financial statements.

Significant judgements and estimates

The application of the company's accounting policies, the management is required to make judgements,

estimates and assumptions about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent

from other sources. The estimates and underlying 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 if the revision affects only that

period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future

periods.

Turnover

Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, excluding discounts,

rebates, value added tax and other sales taxes.

Turnover is recognised as activity progresses on each job and the right to consideration is earned.

Tangible fixed assets

Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life or, if held under a finance lease, over the lease term, whichever is the shorter.

Short leasehold

Financial instruments

Financial instruments are classified and accounted for, according ot the substance of the contractual

arrangement, as either financial assets, financial liabilities or equity instruments. An equity instrument is

any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the company after deducting all of its

liabilities.

Non-derivative financial instruments comprise trade and other debtors, cash and cash equivalents, trade

and other creditors and interest free loans.

Debtors and creditors with no stated interest rate are receivable or payable within one year and are

recorded at transaction price. Any losses arising from impairment are recognised in expenditure.

Cash and cash equivalents comprise of cash at bank and in hand.

Loans and borrowings and concessionary loans are initially recognised at transaction price including

transaction costs. Subsequently, they are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate

method less impairment. If an arrangement constitutes a finance transaction it is measured at present

value. Loans and borrowings receivable within one year are not discounted.
