STRATEGIC REPORT
FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 31 MARCH 2025
The Directors present their Strategic Report for Kendall Kingscott Limited for the year ended 31 March 2025.
The accounting period was adjusted to align with RSK Group following the Company’s acquisition in October 2024. As a result, this report covers a 10-month trading period. Where applicable, pro-rated figures have been used to provide meaningful comparisons with prior performance.
For the 10-month period ended 31 March 2025, Kendall Kingscott achieved a turnover of £14.61 million, compared to £15.74 million in the preceding 12-month period. On an annualised basis, this equates to a projected turnover of £17.53 million, reflecting 11.4% year-on-year growth.
Gross profit for the shorter period totalled £5.46 million, inclusive of £1.4 million in direct sub-consultant costs, up from £5.794 million the previous year. This represents a gross margin increase from 36.8% to 37.4%, an improvement of 0.6%. When excluding direct sub-consultant appointments, gross margin is approximately 42% for both years, comfortably exceeding our benchmark target of 40%. Operating profit remained strong, and EBITDA outperformed target productivity ratios, aligned with our strategic growth objectives.
The balance sheet closed at £3.79 million, up from £3.23 million in the previous year and £2.32 million in FY2022/23 – a significant increase in asset value over 22 months. The Company is debt-free, with £1.109 million in cash reserves and improved debtor days driven by enhanced collection processes.
Despite a turbulent macroeconomic backdrop, the Company continued to perform strongly across all key indicators. Inflationary pressure, interest rate volatility, and international geopolitical tensions contributed to broader market uncertainty. The October budget from the new Labour government introduced additional cost burdens through higher National Insurance contributions, significant increases to the National Minimum Wage, and other tax-related policy changes that took effect in April 2025. These came on top of recent corporation tax increases and have required a further review of efficiencies and productivity ratios to protect margins. Looking forward, we are excited by the prospect of Artificial Intelligence and the potential it brings to our business, though remain cautious in its implementation given its current pace of development.
Towards the end of the year, there has been some early signs that government’s commitment to investment in housing, decarbonisation, health, and infrastructure - all core markets for Kendall Kingscott - has begun to materialise. Notably, an increase in health-sector capital expenditure towards the end of the financial year led to several new commissions now secured in FY2025/26.
Our strong and diverse business model has once again demonstrated resilience under pressure. The combination of multi-disciplinary service lines and sector balance has underpinned sustained growth, increased productivity, and improved operational efficiency.
Looking ahead, the Board remains confident in the Company’s trajectory. Having delivered near 80% revenue growth and improved profitability over the past five years, our sights are now set on maintaining this momentum, underpinned by a robust platform for continued strategic expansion.
In October 2024, following a robust and thorough process, Kendall Kingscott Limited became part of the RSK Group—an ambitious international environmental consultancy comprising over 250 business units across a broad spectrum of technical services. This acquisition represents a significant milestone in our strategic journey, unlocking accelerated access to national coverage, new markets, and a wider service offering through group-wide specialisms. These capabilities further enhance our ability to support clients with a single point of access to integrated consultancy solutions.
RSK’s cultural identity closely aligns with our own. Their purpose-driven approach fosters an environment where people can thrive, underpinned by clear net-zero ambitions, strong social value commitments, and a largely employee-owned structure that offers all staff a pathway to ownership. It was essential that Kendall Kingscott’s independent identity, heritage, and core values remained intact. Integration into the RSK Group has enabled us to do exactly that—continuing to serve our loyal client base with authenticity, while benefiting from the scale and structure of a wider organisation

STRATEGIC REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 31 MARCH 2025
We are now entering a bold new phase of growth, with new offices planned for Manchester and Nottingham in September 2025, providing enhanced geographic reach to both new and existing clients. Alongside our growing presence in prime central London, including our hub office and Teddington base, this expansion positions us towards a national delivery model.
Our distinctive interdisciplinary model -1-Team - remains a cornerstone of our service offering. This approach delivers project lifecycle services through a single, integrated team, ensuring consistency, quality, and accountability. Since the launch of our refreshed brand in 2023, we have intensified our market visibility and profile. This brand evolution, aligned with our enhanced marketing and communication efforts, has directly supported continued business growth, with 2024/25 marking our most significant growth period to date.
We continue to celebrate our achievements, analyse our performance, and promote industry-leading metrics, particularly in staff retention, training, and wellbeing. Feedback from clients, employees, and candidates has been overwhelmingly positive, reinforcing the strength of our approach.
Looking ahead, our strategic ambition is to grow our team to over 300 professionals within five years, delivering high-quality services across the UK and potentially internationally. At the heart of this vision is our people-first culture, underpinned by initiatives designed to nurture talent, empower teams, and embed a culture of lifelong learning. Our bespoke ‘KK Way’ training model anchors this strategy and reflects our enduring commitment to professional development.
Our purpose remains clear: to act with integrity, reflect often, and evolve continually - ensuring we provide exceptional, market-leading service that genuinely supports our clients’ ambitions.
To support this, our work continues to actively pursue several strategic objectives:
∙Enhancing visibility and market reputation.
∙Attracting and retaining the best talent.
∙Standardising office practices across all locations.
∙Centralising our corporate services for efficiency and consistency.
∙Creating new growth-focused roles.
∙Preparing to lead in the green revolution and emerging compliance landscapes.
∙Formalising our net-zero strategy in advance of 2030.
∙Championing social value through meaningful partnerships.
∙Leveraging AI to drive productivity and maintain a competitive edge.
∙Expanding our services into Interior Design, Building Safety Advisor, Sustainability Consulting, and Fire Safety.
Trading in the current financial year is robust, with first quarter performance aligned with forecast expectations. We anticipate further momentum in the second half of the year and are confident in achieving continued growth into FY26/27, though to a lesser extent than recent years, allowing for consolidation before further growth beyond.

STRATEGIC REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 31 MARCH 2025
The Company operates in a complex macroeconomic and political landscape that presents several operational risks, yet its diversified service offering and broad sectoral footprint offer strong resilience.
Economic and Political Environment
The UK’s economic climate continues to be shaped by inflationary pressures, elevated interest rates, and geopolitical instability. Although inflation showed signs of moderation during the year, rate cuts were delayed, prolonging strain on private sector investment. The October 2024 Budget, introduced by the newly elected Labour government, brought further cost pressures through increased National Insurance contributions and uplifts in the National Minimum Wage. These changes, combined with historic corporation tax hikes, have placed further cost burden on the business community. Nevertheless, there are signs of government commitment to investment in critical sectors such as housing, decarbonisation, health, and infrastructure—areas that align closely with Kendall Kingscott’s strategic focus. Our sector diversity and adaptable business model continue to offer strong protection against isolated downturns. Group Dynamics and Structural Risk Integration within the RSK Group introduces both opportunity and operational complexity. The potential for internal competition within the Group is being managed through clearer demarcation of services and improved coordination. The ability to access specialist consultancy services within RSK has enhanced our client offering, particularly in sustainability, fire safety, and MEP. Labour and Skills Shortages Recruitment continues to be a key operational challenge, particularly in securing senior MEP professionals and Chartered Building Surveyors. Our enviable internal Academy programme continues to provide resilience against recruitment challenges, where we have invested considerably and upscaled its ambitions to reflect our growth trajectory. Accordingly, graduate first-time qualification success rate is exceptional – close to 90% pass at the first attempt. Consequently, we have an excellent track record of recruiting high quality graduate and apprenticeship talent. Operational and Compliance Risk The evolving regulatory environment, particularly surrounding the Building Safety Act 2022, requires continued vigilance and capability development. Our Lead Designer responsibilities have now been embedded following robust training over the past 18 months. Further regulation around decarbonisation and ESG reporting will require adaptive responses, for which we are preparing through improved carbon tracking and training initiatives. Technological Change We are actively exploring the use of AI to enhance productivity, although adoption is being carefully calibrated to avoid risk and ensure human oversight. Investment in cloud-based infrastructure is ongoing, with system migrations scheduled in FY25 to support better collaboration and data security.

STRATEGIC REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 31 MARCH 2025
The Company monitors a suite of financial KPIs to track progress against its strategic objectives.
We carry out monthly performance reviews covering management accounts, cash flow forecasts, pipeline health, debtor and creditor management and project sensitivity analysis to ensure timely response to variances.
People & Culture: Staff engagement and retention remain industry leading. Our ‘KK Way’ training model and expanded graduate programme support long-term capacity building and leadership development.
Client Satisfaction: Feedback indicates high client loyalty, supported by our integrated 1-Team model and national delivery focus. Sustainability & ESG: We are on track for net zero before 2030. The rollout of EV vehicles, installation of solar PV systems, and implementation of the THRIVE platform demonstrate progress on both environmental and social value fronts. Brand & Market Presence: The 2023 rebrand has increased industry visibility. Strategic marketing campaigns and investment in content creation continue to drive market engagement. Technology Investment: Cloud migration and centralised IT systems will be implemented in the current financial year to support scalability and enhance security posture. Risk Mitigation & Governance: Continued ISO9001, ISO14001, and Cyber Essentials certification provide quality and security assurance. We maintain a balanced portfolio of public and private sector projects, consistently delivering beyond expectations. Our project pipeline is healthy, with continued success in securing new contracts and maintaining existing relationships.

DIRECTORS' RESPONSIBILITIES STATEMENT
FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 31 MARCH 2025
The directors are responsible for preparing the Strategic Report, the Directors' Report 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 applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice), including Financial Reporting Standard 102 ‘The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland'. 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 for the company's financial statements and then apply them consistently;
∙make judgments 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 to 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.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF KENDALL KINGSCOTT LIMITED
We have audited the financial statements of Kendall Kingscott Limited (the 'company') for the period ended 31 March 2025, which comprise the Statement of Comprehensive Income, the Statement of Financial Position, the Statement of Changes in Equity , the Statement of Cash Flows, and the related notes, 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).
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 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.
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.
The other information comprises the information included in the Strategic report and Directors report other than the financial statements and our Auditors' Report thereon. The directors are responsible for the other information contained within the Strategic report and Directors 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.

∙the information given in the Strategic Report and the Directors' Report for the financial period for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and

KENDALL KINGSCOTT LIMITED
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF KENDALL KINGSCOTT LIMITED (CONTINUED)
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 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:
∙The nature of the industry and sector, control environment and business performance;
∙Results of our enquires of management and directors in relation to their own identification and assessment of the risks of irregularities within the Company; and
∙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; the internal controls established to mitigate risks of fraud or noncompliance with laws and regulations.
As a result of these procedures, we have considered the opportunities and incentives that may exist within the
organisation for fraud and identified the greatest potential for fraud in accounting for revenue relating to long term
contracts.
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, focussing on provisions of those laws and regulations that had a direct effect on the determination of material amounts and disclosures within the financial statements. The key laws and regulations we considered in this context included the UK Companies Act and UK tax legislation. In addition, we considered provision of other laws and regulations that do not have a direct effect on the financial statements but compliance with them may be fundamental for the Company’s ability to operate or avoid a material penalty. These included building regulation laws, health and safety legislation, environmental legislation and employment legislation.
Our audit procedures performed to respond to the risks identified included, but were not limited to:
∙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;
∙Reviewing the financial statement disclosures and testing to supporting documentation to assess the recognition of revenue;
∙Challenging assumptions and judgements made by management in their significant accounting estimates; Identifying and testing journal entries, evaluating whether there was evidence of bias by the directors that represented a risk of material misstatement due to fraud.
∙Discussions with management, including consideration of known or suspected instances of non-compliance with laws and regulation and fraud; and
∙Review of board meeting minutes.
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.

KENDALL KINGSCOTT LIMITED
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF KENDALL KINGSCOTT LIMITED (CONTINUED)
Our audit procedures were designed to respond to risks of material misstatement in the financial statements,recognising that the risk of not detecting a material misstatement due to fraud is higher than the risk of not detecting one resulting from an error, as fraud may involve deliberate concealment by, for example, forgery, misrepresentations or through collusion. There are inherent limitations in the audit procedures performed and the further removed non-compliance with laws and regulations is from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, the less likely we would become aware of it.
Because of 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 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.
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 Auditors' 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.

2.ACCOUNTING POLICIES
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 accounting period was adjusted to align with RSK Group following the Company’s acquisition in October 2024.
The following principal accounting policies have been applied:
The directors have assessed the likely future cash flows at the date of approving these financial statements. The directors have a reasonable expectation that the Group and Company have adequate resources to continue in operational existence and to meet the financial obligations as they fall due for at least 12 months from the date of signing these financial statements. Accordingly, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.
The Company's business activities, together with the factors likely to affect its future development, performance and position are set out in the Director’s report. The Company's forecasts and projections show that the company should be able to operate within the level of its current facilities.

DEFINED CONTRIBUTION PENSION PLAN
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 the Statement of Comprehensive Income when they fall due. Amounts not paid are shown in other creditors as a liability in the Statement of Financial Position. The assets of the plan are held separately from the company in independently administered funds. Provisions are charged as an expense to the Statement of Comprehensive Income in the year that the company becomes aware of the obligation, and are measured at the best estimate at the Statement of Financial Position date of the expenditure required to settle the obligation, taking into account relevant risks and uncertainties. When payments are eventually made, they are charged to the provision carried in the Statement of Financial Position.
