Report of the Director
for the Year Ended 31 March 2025

The director presents his 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 providing security solutions for the cash and high value items industry.

REVIEW OF BUSINESS
Overview of Performance and Review of the Year

During the fifth year of trading, the company maintained a strong sales order book, supported by continued growth in both customer numbers and product range.

To align with trends in target markets, the company sustained its enhanced focus on product development. As part of its commitment to sustainability, these initiatives include the installation of solar charging and an increase in electric vehicles.

Turnover decreased as anticipated, falling by £644k from the previous year to £4.9m. Pre-tax profit was £177k, broadly in line with forecast. Given the expected reduction in turnover and ongoing inflationary pressures, costs were carefully managed through the year. Gross margin eased slightly, moving from 41% to 39%.

The company maintained its resource during the year with full time staff settled at 39, compared to the previous year's number of 43. The business model allows the number of staff to flex upwards and downwards in line with demand.

Stock continued to be purchased in advance to assist with planning and execution, due to the increased demand, and as a result, stock and Work in Progress remained at a relatively high level at the year end.

Order Book

The order book at the end of the financial year continues to demonstrate a healthy position of the business and provides confidence in the strategy.

Looking Forward

Obelix Systems Limited continues with its aim of keeping the business as lean as possible and achieving the goal to make operational improvements and product development initiatives. The company strives to deliver quality and innovative products that enhance our customers' activities.

DIRECTOR
M V Usen held office during the whole of the period from 1 April 2024 to the date of this report.

This report has been prepared in accordance with the provisions of Part 15 of the Companies Act 2006 relating to small companies.

1. STATUTORY INFORMATION

Obelix Systems Limited is a private company, limited by shares , registered in England and Wales. The company's registered number and registered office address can be found on the Company Information page.

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

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" including the provisions of Section 1A "Small Entities" and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.

Turnover
Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, excluding discounts, rebates, value added tax and other sales taxes.

Goodwill
Goodwill, being the amount paid in connection with the acquisition of a business in 2020, is being amortised evenly over its estimated useful life of ten years.

Intangible assets
Intangible assets are initially measured at cost. After initial recognition, intangible assets are measured at cost less any accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses.

Tangible fixed assets
Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life.
Plant and machinery etc - 33% on cost

Stocks
Stocks and work in progress are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value, after making due allowance for obsolete and slow moving items.

Cost is calculated using the first-in, first-out method and includes all purchase, transport, and handling costs in bringing stocks to their present location and condition.

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.

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.
