| REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS |
| for the Year Ended 31 March 2025 |
| The directors present their report with the financial statements of the company for the year ended 31 March 2025. |
| PRINCIPAL ACTIVITY |
| The principal activity of the company in the year under review was that of a holding company. |
| Our Vision at Optimum is to enhance the quality of people's lives by continually developing and encouraging our team to push the boundaries of manufacturing techniques. |
| Optimum Rx Group is a well-regarded, independent ophthalmic lens manufacturing company. |
| On 28th March 2024 Optimum Rx Group Limited became employee owned through the creation of an Employee Ownership Trust (EOT) which purchased 100 per cent of the company's shares. |
| This transition highlights the company's commitment to recognising the invaluable contributions of its employees and ensuring long-term business stability. This new business structure ensures that every employee-owner shares in the rewards of their hard work and contributes to the company's future success. It promotes a culture of inclusivity and shared responsibility, where each employee's role is critical to the company's overall performance and sustainability. |
| This change is an incredible opportunity for growth and innovation. As an EOT company, we anticipate heightened employee engagement and productivity, resulting in even better service for our customers. |
| This move also guarantees the stability of the company, safeguarding the interests of both our employees and valued clients." |
| We are committed to the timely delivery of superior quality products and passionate about delivering exceptional customer care. |
| Our success is directly tied to our four core values which have become the cornerstones of our business: - |
| o Innovative: a dynamic workplace, inspiring growth and development. |
| o Passionate: about our people and our customers, driven to deliver excellence. |
| o Professional: providing outstanding products and the friendliest customer service in the industry. |
| o Ownership: as a team we all take personal responsibility for the continued success of our Company. |
| The average number of people employed by the group during the year was 2, all based at its well invested, state of the art manufacturing facility located in Morecambe, UK. |
| Optimum's broad product range, some of which is unavailable elsewhere in the UK market, is made through a number of innovative processes using an array of modern equipment. This ensures precise and high-quality products are consistently delivered at competitive prices with short lead times. |
| The business continues to expand and our continued investment in technology and the training and development of our people has positioned the business well for further growth. |

| NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
| for the Year Ended 31 March 2025 |
| 1. | STATUTORY INFORMATION |
| Optimum Rx Group Limited is a |
| 2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
| Basis of preparing the financial statements |
| 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 represents management fees receivable net of VAT. |
| Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised when the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods have passed to the buyer (usually on dispatch of the goods), the amount of revenue can be measured reliably, it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the entity and the costs incurred or to be incurred in respect of the transaction can be measured reliably. |
| Tangible fixed assets |
| Tangible fixed assets are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost or valuation, net of depreciation and any impairment losses. |
| Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets less their residual values over their useful lives on the following bases: |
| Computer equipment 33% straight line |
| The gain or loss arising on the disposal of an asset is determined as the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying value of the asset, and is credited or charged to profit or loss. |
| Investments in subsidiaries |
| Interests in subsidiaries, associates and jointly controlled entities are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. The investments are assessed for impairment at each reporting date and any impairment losses or reversals of impairment losses are recognised immediately in profit or loss. |
| A subsidiary is an entity controlled by the company. Control is the power to govern the financial and operating policies of the entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities. |
| Taxation |
| Taxation for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the Income Statement, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity. |
| Current or deferred taxation assets and liabilities are not discounted. |
| Current tax is recognised at the amount of tax payable using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date. |

| 2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued |
| Deferred tax |
| Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed at the balance sheet date. |
| Timing differences arise from the inclusion of income and expenses in tax assessments in periods different from those in which they are recognised in financial statements. Deferred tax is measured using tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the year end and that are expected to apply to the reversal of the timing difference. |
| Unrelieved tax losses and other deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits. |
| Cash and cash equivalents |
| Cash and cash equivalents are basic financial assets and include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities. |
| Financial instruments |
| The company has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 'Basic Financial Instruments' and Section 12 'Other Financial Instruments Issues' of FRS102 to all of its financial instruments. |
| 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 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 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. |
| Debtors |
| Debtors do not carry any interest and are stated at their nominal value. Appropriate allowances for estimated irrecoverable amounts are recognised in the profit and loss account when there is objective evidence that the asset is impaired. |
| 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 o 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. |
