STRATEGIC REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JANUARY 2025
The directors present their strategic report for the year ended 31 January 2025.
The principal activity of the Company continues to be the design and installation of mechanical, electrical and plumbing building services. In addition the Company has activity in the facilities management, small projects and renewables sectors. The Company is dedicated to a business focussed on residential, commercial, renewables and facilities management and seeks to grow its share in all markets.
The directors regard the following financial indicators as key performance indicators of the business in relation to operations: 2025 2024 Variance £000 £000 Turnover 57,904 35,158 +64.7% Gross margin 5,707 5,778 -1.2% Gross margin % 9.9% 16.4% (6.5%) Operating expenses (5,798) (4,815) +20% Opex % 10.0% 13.7% +3.7% EBIT (91) 963 (110%) EBIT % 0% 2.7% (2.7%) During the year the Company had increased revenue of 65% with growth in all markets and sectors. The revenue growth reflects the businesses strategy to focus on driving revenue in a period where there was heightened awareness that gross margins would be under increased pressure due to changes in government legislation in the construction sector, rising national material and labour costs and increased competition in tendering for projects. Revenue growth was achieved through competitive tendering within the residential market having established strong relationships with multiple building contractors and developers over a number of years. With increased gross margin pressure the Company has recognised the need to reduce its operating expenses as a percentage of the businesses revenue with a reduction of 3.7% being achieved in the year. This has largely been achieved through strong controls being applied to payroll and improved business processes with a focus on information technology and new software systems. During the year the Company has been subject to new BSR and Gateway 2 approval processes that have been recently implemented. Whilst this has seen an increase in early engagement and additional PCSA opportunities it has resulted in a delay in contract decisions and project start dates. The Company has in response to this actively diversified into a more balanced business portfolio with continued growth in the Service sector alongside increased focus on commercial projects. In addition to the key financial indicators above the directors also monitor the performance of the company by reference to the following additional financial key performance indicators. Quality – QA/QC and Testing The Company reviews the Quality Assurance (QA) performance monthly and also considers feedback from the FM Aftercare business to drive continuous improvement. The Company audits all sites at least once per month by an independent specialist to which an average score of 90% (2024: 98%) was achieved in the year.

STRATEGIC REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JANUARY 2025
Management to labour ratio (target 8-10%)
The Company monitors the adequacy of supervision and management to maintain our quality and health & safety standards. A target of between 8% to 10% has been set. Health & safety The Board reviews the Accident Log monthly as a primary indicator of health and safety standards. In addition, the Company audits all sites at least once per month by an independent specialist, to which an average score of 88% (2024 : 98%) was achieved.
The principal risks from the company's principal activity arise from:
Commercial relationships risk The company has developed close commercial relationships with several key clients and suppliers because of its commitment to quality and service. The loss of any of these key clients or suppliers could have a detrimental effect on the company's results. To minimise this risk, the company invests heavily in training and systems and effective communications to support those relationships. Competitor risk The company operates in a highly competitive market. To mitigate the risk of business loss, the company focuses on maintaining and enhancing its unique core differentiators so that it remains highly competitive. Litigation and regulation risk The company is subject to a broad range of laws, regulations, and standards. Non-compliance with any of these laws, regulations and standards can significantly damage the reputation and performance of the company. The company operates strong quality control procedures to ensure that any such risks are minimised. Credit risk The company derives a significant proportion of its revenue from sales to large private organisations. The failure of any such customer to honour its debts or refuse to approve work completed could materially impact on the company's own working capital. Credit control responsibility for key accounts is assigned to the Commercial Director to ensure that the company closely monitors debt collection periods in order to flag up any likely problems before they arise. Going concern risk The company recognises that the loss of contracts or a significant rise in costs could affect the company's ability to continue as a going concern. This risk is mitigated by the number of contracts entered and their long-term nature and therefore cash flows generated. The company retains cash reserves sufficient to cope with short term.
This report was approved by the board on 31 October 2025 and signed on its behalf.

DIRECTORS' RESPONSIBILITIES STATEMENT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JANUARY 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 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 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.

WOODFORD HEATING & ENERGY LIMITED
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF WOODFORD HEATING & ENERGY LIMITED
We have audited the financial statements of Woodford Heating & Energy Limited (the 'Company') for the year ended 31 January 2025, which comprise the Statement of Comprehensive Income, the Balance Sheet, the Statement of Changes in Equity 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).
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.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF WOODFORD HEATING & ENERGY LIMITED (CONTINUED)
The other information comprises the information included in the Annual Report other than the financial statements and our Auditors' 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.
In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:
∙the information given in the Strategic Report and the Directors' Report for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and
∙the Strategic Report and the Directors' Report have been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.
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.

WOODFORD HEATING & ENERGY LIMITED
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF WOODFORD HEATING & ENERGY 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:
We obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory frameworks that are applicable to the entity and determined that the most significant are those that: • had a direct effect on the determination of material amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. These included the UK Companies Act and tax legislation etc; and • 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. These include operational and employment laws and regulations including health and safety regulations, environmental regulations, GDPR and Subcontractor requirements. We obtained an understanding of how the company are complying with those legal and regulatory frameworks by making enquiries with management and those responsible for legal and compliance frameworks. We corroborated our enquiries through review of correspondence with regulatory bodies and gaining an understanding of the entity level controls of the company in respect of these areas and the controls in place to reduce opportunity for fraudulent transactions. We discussed among the audit engagement team including relevant internal tax specialists, regarding the opportunities and incentives, including management override of controls, that may exist within the organisation for fraud and how and where fraud might occur in the financial statements. We also communicated the applicable laws and regulations throughout our team and remained alert to any indications of non-compliance throughout the audit. As a result of performing the above, we identified the greatest potential for fraud in the following areas, and our specific procedures performed to address it are described below: The principal risks related to management override in relation to posting of non-standard manual journals in respect of revenue and misstatement of expenses in relation to work in progress. Procedures performed to address these were as follows: • Walkthrough testing was carried out to identify and assess the design effectiveness of controls, management have in place to prevent and detect fraud, including known of suspected instances or non-compliance with laws and regulations and fraud, • Understanding how those charged with governance considered and addressed the potential for override of controls or other inappropriate influence over the financial reporting process,

WOODFORD HEATING & ENERGY LIMITED
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF WOODFORD HEATING & ENERGY LIMITED (CONTINUED)
• Using analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected relationships that may indicate risks of material misstatements due to fraud,
• Assessing the appropriateness of accounting estimates and challenging any significant assumptions or judgements made by management, • Incorporating testing of manual journal entries that were posted throughout the year. In particular, we focused on material journal entries, journal entries posted with unusual account combinations, and journal entries crediting revenue or cash. These were scrutinised for evidence of unusual entries, • Reviewing revenue recognition policies and general policies in relation to work in progress. We assessed the accuracy and completeness of the management’s estimates through developing a detailed understanding of the contract stage and reviewing post year end activity, • Evaluated the business rationale of any significant transactions that are unusual or outside the normal course of business, • Reviewing compliance with the Health & Safety accreditations and confirming no breaches in the year.
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.

The following principal accounting policies have been applied:
The Company has taken advantage of the following disclosure exemptions in preparing these financial statements, as permitted by the FRS 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland":
∙the requirements of Section 11 Financial Instruments paragraphs 11.42, 11.44 to 11.45, 11.47, 11.48(a)(iii), 11.48(a)(iv), 11.48(b) and 11.48(c);

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JANUARY 2025
2.Accounting policies (continued)
At each reporting date the Company assesses whether there is any indication of impairment. If such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is determined which is the higher of its fair value less costs to sell and its value in use. An impairment loss is recognised where the carrying amount exceeds the recoverable amount.
Depreciation is charged so as to allocate the cost of assets less their residual value over their estimated useful lives, on the basis below.
Depreciation is provided on the following basis:
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 profit or loss.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JANUARY 2025
2.Accounting policies (continued)
Financial instruments are recognised in the Company's Balance Sheet when the Company becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the financial statements, when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
Basic financial assets
Basic financial assets, which include trade and other debtors, cash and bank balances, are initially measured at their transaction price (adjusted for transaction costs except in the initial measurement of financial assets that are subsequently measured at fair value through profit and loss) and are subsequently carried at their amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any provision for impairment, 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.
Discounting is omitted where the effect of discounting is immaterial. The Company's cash and cash equivalents, trade and most other debtors due with the operating cycle fall into this category of financial instruments.
Impairment of financial assets
At the end of each reporting period financial assets measured at amortised cost are assessed for objective evidence of impairment. 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.
Financial assets are impaired when events, subsequent to their initial recognition, indicate the estimated future cash flows derived from the financial asset(s) have been adversely impacted. The impairment loss will be the difference between the current carrying amount and the present value of the future cash flows at the asset(s) original effective interest rate.
If there is a favourable change in relation to the events surrounding the impairment loss then the impairment can be reviewed for possible reversal. The reversal will not cause the current carrying amount to exceed the original carrying amount had the impairment not been recognised. The impairment reversal is recognised in the profit or loss.
Basic 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 the deduction of all its liabilities.
Basic financial liabilities, which include trade and other creditors, bank loans and other loans are initially measured at their transaction price (adjusting for transaction costs except in the initial measurement of financial liabilities that are subsequently measured at fair value through profit and loss). When this constitutes a financing transaction, whereby the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest, discounting is omitted where the effect of discounting is immaterial.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JANUARY 2025
2.Accounting policies (continued)
Debt instruments are subsequently carried at their amortised cost using the effective interest rate method.
Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods and services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. Trade creditors are classified as current liabilities if the payment is due within one year. If not, they represent non-current liabilities. Trade creditors are initially recognised at their transaction price and subsequently are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Discounting is omitted where the effect of discounting is immaterial.
Derecognition of financial instruments
Derecognition of financial assets
Financial assets are derecognised when their contractual right to future cash flow expire, or are settled, or when the Company transfers the asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to another party. If significant risks and rewards of ownership are retained after the transfer to another party, then the Company will continue to recognise the value of the portion of the risks and rewards retained.
Derecognition of financial liabilities
Financial liabilities are derecognised when the Company's contractual obligations expire or are discharged or cancelled.
Capital contributions to the Woodford Heating & Energy Employee Ownership Trust are recognised when approved by the Board of Directors.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JANUARY 2025
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. The key assumptions concerning the future, and other key sources of estimation uncertainty, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are discussed below. The company uses the percentage of completion method to recognise revenue for long term contracts. This method requires the directors to estimate the level of services performed at each reporting date as a proportion of the total services to be performed to complete the contract. Variations to estimates could result in the over or under recognition of revenue.
