JARVIS HOMES LIMITED STRATEGIC REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 APRIL 2025
Introduction
The directors present their report and the audited financial statements for the year ended 30 April 2025.
Business review
The company generated a turnover of £6.1m, compared to £14.4m in the prior year. This reduction primarily reflects the stage of development activity, with a lower volume of residential property sales this year whilst construction is underway. A higher volume of residential sales, and related turnover, is anticipated in the next financial year as developments reach completion. Despite the lower turnover the company achieved a gross profit of £923k (2024: £1.8m), with an improved margin of 15.2% (2024: 12.8%). This reflects a continued focus on cost control within the business, and it is commendable that the business achieved a small profit before text notwithstanding the lower than forecast turnover. The balance sheet remains strong, with shareholders’ funds increasing to £7.6m (2024: £7.4m). The cash balance decreased to £356k (2024: £978k) whilst work in progress rose to £12.9m (2024: £10.2m), reflecting the build phase of our current projects. The directors consider the 2025 results to demonstrate a prudent and sustainable approach, positioning the business for long term success. The business continues to focus on developing high quality homes both in Harpenden and the surrounding areas.
Principal risks and uncertainties
A significant ongoing risk for the business is securing timely planning approvals for new development sites. The planning environment remains complex and subject to evolving regulations, community engagement requirements, and environmental considerations. To mitigate this risk, the company adopts proactive engagement strategies and robust planning approaches. The directors are confident that the experienced management team is well-equipped to navigate these challenges and optimise project outcomes. Another principal risk relates to the fulfilment of the stand-still agreement's repayment terms. All required payments have been made at the Group level in accordance with the agreement, and future obligations have been incorporated into Group cashflow forecasts to ensure continued compliance. This financial year represents the first full year of Jarvis Homes operating as the central business of Jarvis Group. The company has begun to realise the benefits of a more focused operating model, with early signs of cost efficiencies emerging and expected to continue. These improvements support a cautiously optimistic outlook for revenue and gross margin, supported by the anticipated completion and sale of current developments. Page 1
JARVIS HOMES LIMITED STRATEGIC REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 APRIL 2025
Financial key performance indicators
The business maintains and regularly reviews a number of key financial performance indicators, and these are set each year as part of the Group and divisional budgets. These indicators reflect the current phase of development activity, with a lower volume of sales during the year and a focus on margin improvement. The company expects performance to strengthen in the next financial year as developments complete and sales activity increases. Turnover £6.1m (2024: £14.4m) Gross profit % 15.2% (2024: 12.8%) Operating profit 2.3% (2024: 5.0%) Cash balance £356k (2024: £978k) This report was approved by the board and signed on its behalf.

JARVIS HOMES LIMITED DIRECTORS' REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 APRIL 2025 The directors present their report and the financial statements for the year ended 30 April 2025.
Directors' responsibilities statement
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.
Results and dividends
The profit for the year, after taxation, amounted to £114,241 (2024 - £680,627).

JARVIS HOMES LIMITED INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF JARVIS HOMES LIMITED
Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of Jarvis Homes Limited (the 'Company') for the year ended 30 April 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 our opinion the financial statements: ∙give a true and fair view of the state of the Company's affairs as at 30 April 2025 and of its 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 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.
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. Page 5
JARVIS HOMES LIMITED INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF JARVIS HOMES LIMITED (CONTINUED)
Other information
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.
Opinion 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 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.
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: ∙adequate accounting records have not been kept, or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or ∙the 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 Directors' responsibilities statement set out on page 3, 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. Page 6
JARVIS HOMES LIMITED INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF JARVIS HOMES LIMITED (CONTINUED)
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 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 including the remuneration incentives and pressures of key management; • the primary responsibility for the prevention and detection of fraud rests with both those charged with governance of the entity and management. We consider the results of our enquiries of management, about their own identification and assessment of the risks of irregularities; • 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 non-compliance with laws and regulations; • the matters discussed among the audit engagement team, regarding how and where fraud might occur in the financial statements and any potential indicators of fraud. 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 common with all audits under ISAs (UK), we are also required to perform specific procedures to respond to the risk of management override, including testing journals and evaluating whether there was evidence of bias by the directors that represented a risk of material misstatement due to fraud. We also obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory frameworks 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. We focused on laws and regulations that could give rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements, including, but not limited to, the Companies Act 2006 and relevant tax legislation. 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. Page 7

JARVIS HOMES LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 APRIL 2025
1. | General information
Jarvis Homes Limited is a private company limited by shares incorporated in England and Wales. The registered office is Burgundy House, 21 The Forresters, Harpenden, Hertfordshire, AL5 2FB. 2.Accounting policies
| 2.1 | Basis of preparation of financial statements
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 preparation of financial statements in compliance with FRS 102 requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise judgment in applying the Company's accounting policies (see note 3). The following principal accounting policies have been applied:
| 2.2 | Financial Reporting Standard 102 - reduced disclosure exemptions
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 7 Statement of Cash Flows; ∙the requirements of Section 3 Financial Statement Presentation paragraph 3.17(d); ∙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); ∙the requirements of Section 12 Other Financial Instruments paragraphs 12.26 to 12.27, 12.29(a), 12.29(b) and 12.29A; ∙the requirements of Section 33 Related Party Disclosures paragraph 33.7.

JARVIS HOMES LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 APRIL 2025 2.Accounting policies (continued)
| 2.3 | Going concern
The sole business of the Jarvis Group is now largely that of Jarvis Homes – the gaining of planning for, the development of and sale of residential property largely in the Harpenden area. The production and close monitoring by the directors of detailed 2 year monthly cashflow forecasts for the business ensure both the ability to sustain trading and the active management of any liquidity risks. These are further mitigated by a strong relationship with our bank ensuring stable funding of projects and the successful pre-selling of properties ensuring timely receipt of cash. Overheads reductions made in the previous financial year have continued at Group and Homes to reflect the smaller size of the business. Costs have been aligned to the size of the business, while continuing to support its success. The directors are therefore confident that the business can continue as a going concern for the foreseeable future.
| 2.4 | Revenue
Revenue is recognised to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Company and the revenue can be reliably measured. Revenue is measured as the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, excluding discounts, rebates, value added tax and other sales taxes. Revenue is recognised on the sale of residential properties on legal exchange of contracts as long as the sale is completed within 3 months of the year end.
| 2.5 | Interest income
Interest income is recognised in profit or loss using the effective interest method.
| 2.6 | Finance costs
Finance costs are charged to profit or loss over the term of the debt using the effective interest method so that the amount charged is at a constant rate on the carrying amount. Issue costs are initially recognised as a reduction in the proceeds of the associated capital instrument.
| 2.7 | Borrowing costs
All borrowing costs are recognised in profit or loss in the year in which they are incurred.
| 2.8 | Pensions
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 profit or loss when they fall due. Amounts not paid are shown in accruals as a liability in the Balance sheet. The assets of the plan are held separately from the Company in independently administered funds. Page 14
JARVIS HOMES LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 APRIL 2025 2.Accounting policies (continued)
| 2.9 | Taxation
Tax is recognised in profit or loss 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 balance sheet date in the countries where the Company operates and generates income. Deferred tax balances are recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed by the balance sheet date, except that: ∙The recognition of deferred tax assets is limited to the extent that it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits; and ∙Any deferred tax balances are reversed if and when all conditions for retaining associated tax allowances have been met. 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.
| 2.10 | Intangible assets
Intangible assets are initially recognised at cost. After recognition, under the cost model, intangible assets are measured at cost less any accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses. All intangible assets are considered to have a finite useful life. If a reliable estimate of the useful life cannot be made, the useful life shall not exceed ten years.
| 2.11 | 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. Page 15
JARVIS HOMES LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 APRIL 2025 2.Accounting policies (continued)
| 2.11 | Tangible fixed assets (continued)
Depreciation is charged so as to allocate the cost of assets less their residual value over their estimated useful lives, using the methods below.. Depreciation is provided on the following basis:
|  |  |  | Land and buildings Freehold | - |  | No depreciation
|  |  |  | Motor vehicles | - | 40% | Reducing balance
|  |  |  | Fixtures, fittings & equipment | - | 25% | Straight line
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. Freehold interests in long leasehold properties are valued at five times the annual ground rent receivable from the property.
| 2.12 | Revaluation of tangible fixed assets
Individual freehold and leasehold properties are carried at current year value at fair value at the date of the revaluation less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and subsequent accumulated impairment losses. Revaluations are undertaken with sufficient regularity to ensure the carrying amount does not differ materially from that which would be determined using fair value at the balance sheet date. Fair values are determined from market based evidence normally undertaken by professionally qualified valuers. Revaluation gains and losses are recognised in other comprehensive income unless losses exceed the previously recognised gains or reflect a clear consumption of economic benefits, in which case the excess losses are recognised in profit or loss.
| 2.13 | Valuation of investments
Investments in subsidiaries are measured at cost less accumulated impairment. Investments in unlisted Company shares, whose market value can be reliably determined, are remeasured to market value at each balance sheet date. Gains and losses on remeasurement are recognised in the Statement of comprehensive income for the period. Where market value cannot be reliably determined, such investments are stated at historic cost less impairment. Page 16
JARVIS HOMES LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 APRIL 2025 2.Accounting policies (continued)
| 2.14 | Stocks
Work in progress is valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost includes the purchase price of the land, the value of the building work certified as being completed at the balance sheet date, direct project costs and finance charges. 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 profit or loss.
| 2.15 | Long term contracts
Amounts recoverable on long term contracts, which are included in debtors, are stated at the net sales value of the work done after provision for contingencies and anticipated future losses on contracts, less amounts received as progress payments on accounts. Excess progress payments are included in creditors as payments on accounts.
| 2.16 | Debtors
Short-term debtors are measured at transaction price, less any impairment. Loans receivable are measured initially at fair value, net of transaction costs, and are measured subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment.
| 2.17 | 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.
| 2.18 | Creditors
Short-term creditors are measured at the transaction price. Other financial liabilities, including bank loans, are measured initially at fair value, net of transaction costs, and are measured subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
| 2.19 | Provisions for liabilities
Provisions are recognised when an event has taken place that gives rise to a legal or constructive obligation, a transfer of economic benefits is probable and a reliable estimate can be made. Provisions are measured as the best estimate of the amount required to settle the obligation, taking into account the related risks and uncertainties. Increases in provisions are generally charged as an expense to profit or loss.
| 2.20 | Financial instruments
The Company has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 “Basic Financial Instruments” of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments. Basic financial assets Page 17
JARVIS HOMES LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 APRIL 2025 2.Accounting policies (continued)
| 2.20 | Financial instruments (continued)
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. 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. 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.
3. | Judgments in applying accounting policies 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 recoverability of work in progress is a key area of judgement. The directors exercise judgement in allocating costs attributable to stock and work in progress and perform interim job appraisals over the period of the contract to validate the recoverability of each contract. The directors exercise judgement in estimating provisions for rectification work on property sold within the first year after sale. The provisions are estimated between a range of 1%-3% of the property sale value depending on the size and type of property. Page 18
