| DIRECTORS' RESPONSIBILITIES STATEMENT |
| The directors are responsible for preparing the Report of the Directors 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 United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards and applicable law). 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 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 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. |
| STATEMENT AS TO DISCLOSURE OF INFORMATION TO AUDITORS |
| So far as the directors are aware, there is no relevant audit information (as defined by Section 418 of the Companies Act |
| 2006) of which the company's auditors are unaware, and each director has taken all the steps that he or she ought to |
| have taken as a director in order to make himself or herself aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that |
| the company's auditors are aware of that information. |
| This report has been prepared in accordance with the provisions of Part 15 of the Companies Act 2006 relating to small companies. |
| ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD: |
| Report of the Independent Auditors to the Members of |
| Q-Flo Limited |
| Opinion |
| We have audited the financial statements of Q-Flo Limited (the 'company') for the year ended 31 December 2024 which comprise the Income and Other Comprehensive Income Statement, Statement of Financial Position, Statement of Changes in Equity and Notes to the Financial Statements, 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 31 December 2024 and of its loss 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. |
| In our opinion the financial statements: |
| - | give a true and fair view of the state of the company's affairs as at 31 December 2024 and of its loss 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 UK, including the FRC'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 forming our opinion on the financial statements, which is not modified, we have considered the adequacy of the disclosures made within the notes to the financial statements concerning the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. |
| As at 31 December 2024, Q-Flo Limited has committed shareholder funding in place to support operations until 31 March 2026, with no repayment obligations or conditions attached. Beyond 31 March 2026, continued operation remains dependent on securing additional funding. Accordingly, a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern beyond 31 March 2026. |
| The financial statements do not include any adjustments that would result if the Company were unable to continue as a going concern. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter. |
| Other information |
| The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information in the Report of the Directors, but does not include the financial statements and our Report of the Auditors thereon. |
| 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. |
| In connection with our audit of the financial statements, 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 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. |
| Opinions 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 Report of the Directors for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared |
| is consistent with the financial statements; and |
| - the Report of the Directors have been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements. |
| Report of the Independent Auditors to the Members of |
| Q-Flo Limited |
| 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 Report of the Directors. |
| We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters where 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; or |
| - the directors were not entitled to prepare the financial statements in accordance with the small companies regime and |
| take advantage of the small companies' exemption from the requirement in preparing the Report of the Directors. |
| Responsibilities of directors |
| As explained more fully in the Statement of Directors' Responsibilities set out on page two, 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 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. |
| Report of the Independent Auditors to the Members of |
| Q-Flo Limited |
| 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 a Report of the Auditors 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. |
| The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below: |
| The engagement partners ensured that the engagement team collectively had the appropriate competence, capabilities and skill to identify or recognise non-compliance with applicable laws and regulations; |
| - we identified the laws and regulations applicable to the company through discussions with directors and other |
| management, and from our commercial knowledge and experience of the sector; |
| - we focused on specific laws and regulations which we considered may have a direct material effect on the financial |
| statements or the operations of the company, including the Companies Act 2006, taxation legislation and data |
| protection, anti-bribery, employment, environmental and health and safety legislation; |
| - we assessed the extent of compliance with laws and regulations identified above through making enquiries of |
| management and inspecting legal correspondence; and |
| - identified laws and regulations were communicated within the audit team regularly and the team remained alert to |
| instance of non-compliance throughout the audit. |
| - We assessed the susceptibility of the company's financial statements to material misstatement, including obtaining an |
| understanding of how fraud might occur, by; |
| - making enquiries of management as to where they considered there was susceptibility to fraud, their knowledge of |
| actual, suspected and alleged fraud; |
| - considering the internal controls in place to mitigate risks of fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations; and |
| - understanding the design of the company's remuneration policies. |
| To address the risk of fraud through management bias and override of controls, we; |
| - performed analytical procedures to identify unusual or unexpected relationships; |
| - tested journal entries to identify unusual transactions; |
| - assessed whether judgements and assumptions made in determining the accounting estimates were indicative of |
| potential bias; and |
| - investigated the rationale behind significant or unusual transactions. |
| The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below: |
| 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. Our procedures are designed to be capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud. |
| 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 Report of the Auditors. |
| 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 Report of the Auditors. |
| Audit response to risks identified |
| In response to the risk of irregularities and non-compliance with laws and regulations; we designed procedures which included, but were not limited to; |
| - agreeing financial statement disclosures to underlying supporting documentation; |
| - enquiring of management as to actual and potential litigation and claims; and |
| - reviewing correspondence with HMRC, relevant regulators and company's legal advisors. |
| 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 Report of the Auditors. |
| Report of the Independent Auditors to the Members of |
| Q-Flo Limited |
| Use of our 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 a Report of the Auditors 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. |

| Notes to the Financial Statements |
| for the Year Ended 31 December 2024 |
| 1. | GOING CONCERN |
| The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. The Company has committed shareholder funding sufficient to meet obligations through 31 March 2026 and management has implemented plans to reduce costs, including the wind-down of UK operations and focus on maintaining its CNT patent portfolio. However, continued operation beyond 31 March 2026 is dependent on securing additional funding. While discussions regarding future funding are ongoing, no binding commitments have been obtained. Accordingly, a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern beyond 31 March 2026. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from this uncertainty. |
| 2. | STATUTORY INFORMATION |
| Q-Flo Limited is a |
| The presentation currency of the financial statements is the Pound Sterling (£). |
| 3. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
| Basis of preparing the financial statements |
| The disclosure requirements of FRS 102 have been applied other than where additional disclosure is required to show a true and fair view. |
| These are the financial statements of the individual company, the parent company will include them in the consolidated financial accounts. |
| Significant judgements and estimates |
| In the application of the company's accounting policies the director is required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amounts 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 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 company does not make significant estimates and assumptions concerning the future. |
| Turnover and revenue recognition |
| Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, excluding discounts, rebates, value added tax and other sales taxes. |
| Revenue is recognised in the period to which it relates. |
| Grants are recognised where there is reasonable assurance that the Company will comply with the attached conditions and that the grants will be received. Grants that compensate the Company for expenses incurred are recognised in profit or loss as Other operating income on a systematic basis in the same periods in which the related expenses are recognised. Amounts earned but not yet received are presented as accrued income. |
| 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. |
| Intangible fixed assets and amortisation |
| Intellectual property is being written off in equal annual instalments over its estimated economic life of 20 years. |
| Professional fees relating to intellectual property have been written off in the year of the expense. |

| Investments |
| Basic financial instruments are recognised at amortised cost using the effective interest method, except for investments in non-convertible preference and non-puttable preference and ordinary shares, which are measured at fair value, with changes recognised in profit or loss. Derivative financial instruments are initially recorded at cost and thereafter at fair value, with changes recognised in profit and loss. |
| 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 statement of financial position date. |
| Deferred tax |
| Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed at the statement of financial position 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. |
| Foreign currencies |
| Assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rates of exchange ruling at the statement of financial position date. Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rate of exchange ruling at the date of transaction. Exchange differences are taken into account in arriving at the operating result. |
| Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits |
| The company operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the company's pension scheme are charged to profit or loss in the period to which they relate. |
| Investments in joint venture |
| Investments in joint venture undertakings are recognised at cost. |
| 4. | TURNOVER |

| Operational Changes |
| Following the 31 December 2024 year-end, Q-Flo Limited has implemented significant operational and structural changes. All UK manufacturing and research and development activities ceased in September 2025 and a formal redundancy programme was completed between October and December 2025. A small management team will remain in place until 31 January 2026 to oversee the wind-down process, including the donation of equipment and the sale of residual assets. From February 2026 onwards, the Company will operate on a substantially reduced basis, focusing exclusively on maintaining and protecting its carbon nanotube (CNT) patent portfolio and pursuing low-cost licensing opportunities. |
| Asset Disposal |
| Management initiated the donation of bespoke carbon nanotube (CNT) production equipment and related components. The donation to the University of Cambridge has been approved by the Board, with legal title and risks expected to transfer upon execution of the agreement and physical handover by mid-January 2026. A further donation to Glass Futures (St Helens) remains subject to Board approval and is expected to be completed by 31 January 2026. |
| Lease Commitment |
| A new lease agreement for the Glass Futures site commenced in April 2025. |
| These events do not provide evidence of conditions that existed at 31 December 2024 and therefore have not resulted in adjustments to the financial statements. However, they are disclosed to provide users with relevant information about the company’s financial position and future operations. |
