Strategic Report
The director presents his strategic report for the year ended 31 March 2025.
Review of the Business
We aim to present a balanced and comprehensive review of the development and performance of our business during the year and its position at the year end.  Our review is consistent with the size and nature of our business and is written in the context of the risks and uncertainties we face.
We consider that our key financial performance indicators are those that communicate the financial performance and strength of the group as a whole, these being turnover, gross margin and return on investment.
The accounts show a decrease in turnover for the year of 22%, with gross profit decreasing from £4,871,015 to £4,400,793. The group made an operating profit of £442,019 for the year, compared to £424,367 in 2024.
The group declared a net profit after tax and other comprehensive income of £246,008 in the period, compared to £145,472 in 2024.
Principal Risks and Uncertainties
The group’s results for the year reflect the continued challenging environment for the global economy. Despite a reduction in turnover, the group, with the support of its customers, suppliers and staff, has been able to return to profitability through effective cost control and operational efficiency. During the year, the group experienced the effects of high inflation and substantial increases in energy costs.
The coming year will continue to be challenging for both the group and the wider global economy; however, with a strong order book, valued staff support and continued focus on cost control, the directors remain cautiously optimistic of an improvement in results.
With these risks and uncertainties in mind, we acknowledge that any plans for future development may be affected by circumstances which are both unforeseen and beyond our control.

Directors
The director who held office during the year were as follows:
Mr S T Williams
Employee Engagement Statement
The company's policy is to consult and discuss with employees, through unions, staff councils and at meetings, matters likely to affect
employees' interests.
Information of matters of concern to employces is given through information bulletins and reports which seek to achieve a common
awareness on the part of all employees of the financial and economic factors affecting the group's performance.
Disabled Persons
The company's policy is to recruit disabled workers for those vacancies that they are able to fill. All necessary assistance with initial training
courses is given. Once employed, a career plan is developed so as to ensure suitable opportunities for each disabled person. Arrangements are
made, wherever possible, for retraining employees who become disabled, to enable them to perform work identified as appropriate to their
aptitudes and abilities.
Statement of Director's Responsibilities
The director is responsible for preparing the Strategic Report, the Director's Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations.
Company law requires the director to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law the director has elected to prepare the financial statements in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards, comprising FRS102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland', and applicable law). Under company law the director 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 the group and of the profit or loss of the group for that period. In preparing the financial statements the director is required to:
  • select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
  • make judgments and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
  • state whether applicable United Kingdom Accounting Standards, comprising FRS102, have been followed subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;
  • prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the company will continue in business.
The director is responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the company and group's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the company and the group and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. He is also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the company and the group and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
The director is responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the corporate and financial information included on the company's website. Legislation in the United Kingdom governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions.
Statement of Disclosure of Information to Auditors
In the case of each director in office at the date the Director's Report is approved:
  • so far as the director is aware, there is no relevant audit information of which the company and group's auditors are unaware; and
  • they have taken all the steps that they ought to have taken as directors in order to make themselves aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the company and group's auditors are aware of that information.

Independent Auditor's Report
Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of Kaby Engineers Limited (the "parent company") and its subsidiaries (the "group") for the year ended 31 March 2025 which comprise the Consolidated Profit and Loss Account, Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income, Consolidated Balance Sheet, Company Balance Sheet, Consolidated Statement of Changes of Equity, Company Statement of Changes of Equity, Consolidated Cash Flow Statement 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 (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice), including FRS 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland".
In our opinion the financial statements:
  • give a true and fair view of the state of the group's and of the parent company's affairs as at 31 March 2025 and of the group's profit/(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 Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the group and parent 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 auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the director's 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 group and parent company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least 12 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.
Other Information
The other information comprises the information included in the annual report, other than the financial statements and our auditor's report thereon. The director is 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. 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 Strategic Report and Director's Report for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and
  • the Strategic Report and Director's 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 group and parent company and their environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Strategic Report or the Director's 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 by the parent company, or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or
  • the parent company financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records or returns; or
  • certain disclosures of director's 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 Director's Responsibilities Statement set out on page 3—4, the director is 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 director 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 director is responsible for assessing the group and parent 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 group or the parent company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
Auditor's 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 auditor's 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.
The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below: 
- The engagement partner ensured that the engagement team collectively had the appropriate competence, capabilities and skills to identify
or recognise non-compliance with applicable laws;
- Enquiry of management around actual and potential litigation and claims;
- Enquiry of management to identify any instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations;
- We reviewed correspondence with legal and regulatory bodies where applicable;
- We agreed the financial statements disclosures to underlying supporting documentation
- We reviewed the detail of certain nominal accounts for indications of management override;
- We gained an understanding of the design and implementation of the processes and controls in place within the group which are designed to
prevent, detect or correct fraud or error within the financial statements
- We challenged the accounting treatment applied in respect of revenue recognised during the year, in particular in relation to manual
adjustments made to revenue, cut off between accounting periods;
- We identified and tested journal entries which we considered to be unusual and maybe indicative of bias on the part of management or
those charged with governance, investigating the rationale behind significant or unusual transactions.
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 www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditor's report.
Use Of Our Report

Notes to the Financial Statements
1. General Information
Kaby Engineers Limited is a private company, limited by shares, incorporated in England & Wales, registered number 01211144 . The registered office is 10 Sheene Road, Leicester, LE4 1BF.
2. Accounting Policies
2.1. Basis of Preparation of Financial Statements
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention and in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland'' and the Companies Act 2006.
2.2. Basis Of Consolidation
The consolidated profit and loss account and balance sheet include the financial statements of the company and its subsidiary undertakings made up to 31 March 2025. The results of subsidiaries sold or acquired are included in the profit and loss account up to, or from the date control passes. Intra-group sales and profits are eliminated fully on consolidation.
2.3. Going Concern Disclosure
The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. In assessing the appropriateness of this basis, the Director have considered below both the challenges currently facing the business and the actions being taken to address them. While the operating environment remains difficult, the Director has taken steps to stabilise the Group and believe these provide a reasonable basis for preparing the financial statements on a going concern basis.
During the financial year ending 2026, the Group's trading performance has been significantly affected by the loss of a major customer that accounted for 72% of gross sales in FY2025 (67% in FY2024). This loss has placed pressure on revenue and cash flow. To support the business through this period, the Group obtained a £200,000 loan from Equifyve Limited and a £330,000 loan from its shareholders.
The Group is pursuing a strategy to diversify its revenue base, including the launch of a new part and stock item. While initial sales have been encouraging, the product is at an early stage of market development, and it will take time to assess whether it can generate sufficient and sustainable revenue to offset the loss of the former customer.
The Group also plans to complete a sale and leaseback of its property, with anticipated gross proceeds of approximately £3.8 million. The Director expects that the proceeds from this transaction, after repayment of the associated bank loan and related costs, would provide additional liquidity to support the Group’s ongoing operations. As the transaction has not yet completed and remains subject to contractual agreement and completion, the timing and certainty of the proceeds have been considered when assessing the appropriateness of the going concern basis.
The Parent Company breached a financial covenant attached to its bank facility in September 2025. The directors are confident that the breach will be remedied as part of the company’s wider debt restructuring arrangements.
In addition, included within other debtors is £472,158 due from three companies connected to a former director. The Director believes these balances to be recoverable and confirm that active discussions are ongoing with the relevant parties regarding repayment of the outstanding amounts.
2.4. Significant judgements and estimations
The group makes estimates and assumptions concerning the future. Management are also required to exercise judgement in the process of applying the group accounting policies. Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors,including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.
The estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are addressed below:
Depreciation and residual values
The director has reviewed the asset lives and associated residual values of all fixed asset classes, and in particular, the useful economic lives and residual values of fixture & fittings and plant & machinery, and have concluded that asset lives and residual values are appropriate.
The actual lives of the assets and residual values are assessed annually and may vary depending on a number of factors. In re-assessing asset lives, factors such as technological innovation, product life cycles and maintenance programmes are taken into account. Residual value assessments consider issues such as future market conditions, the remaining life of the asset and project disposal values.
Finished Goods
Stock includes attributable labour and overheads and are based on management's estimate of the absorption of fixed and variable costs in the manufacturing process excluding selling and marketing costs.
Leases
The director determines whether leases entered into by the company either as a lessor or a lessee are operating lease or finance leases. These decisions depend on an assessment of whether the risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred from the lessor to the lessee on a lease by lease basis based on an evaluation of the terms and conditions of the arrangements, and accordingly whether the lease requires an asset and liability to be recognised in the statement of financial position.
Page 15
Page 16
2.5. 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 from the sale of goods is recognised when significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods have transferred to the buyer, the amount of turnover can be measured reliably, it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the company and the costs incurred or to be incurred in respect of the transaction can be measured reliably. This is usually on dispatch of the goods.
2.6. Research and Development
Intangible fixed assets represent capitalised research and development costs. No amortisation is to be applied in the year of acquisition. The balance as at 31 March 2025 will be amortised over one year.
2.7. Tangible Fixed Assets and Depreciation
Tangible fixed assets include investment properties professionally valued by Chartered Surveyors on an existing use open market value basis. Tangible fixed assets other than freehold land are stated at cost or valuation less depreciation. Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write off the cost or valuation less estimated residual value of each asset over its expected useful life, as follows:
Freehold 2% per annum of cost or valuation
Leasehold Straight line over 7 years
Plant & Machinery 10%-50% per annum of cost & 15% reducing balance
Motor Vehicles 20% per annum of cost & 25% reducing balance
Tool Holders 20% reducing balance
Office Equipment 20% reducing balance
2.8. Investments
Fixed asset investments are stated at cost less provision for diminution in value.
2.9. Leasing and Hire Purchase Contracts
Assets obtained under hire purchase contracts or finance leases are capitalised in the balance sheet. Those held under hire purchase contracts are depreciated over their estimated useful lives or the lease term, whichever is the shorter.
The interest element of these obligations is charged to the profit and loss account over the relevant period. The capital element of the future payments is treated as a liability.
Rentals paid / received under operating leases are charged / credited to the profit and loss account on a straight line basis over the period of the lease.
2.10. Stocks and Work in Progress
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 includes all direct expenditure and an appropriate proportion of fixed and variable overheads on a first in, first out basis.
2.11. Foreign Currencies
Assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rates of exchange ruling at the balance sheet 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.
Page 16
Page 17
2.12. Taxation
Income tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax.
The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from profit as reported in the statement of comprehensive income because of items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and items that are never taxable or deductible. The group's liability for current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.
Deferred tax represents the future tax consequences of transactions and events recognised in the financial statements of current and previous periods.  It is recognised in respect of all timing differences, with certain exceptions.  Timing differences are differences between taxable profits and total comprehensive income as stated in the financial statements that arise from the inclusion of income and expense in tax assessments in periods different from those in which they are recognised in the financial statements.  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.
Deferred tax is measured using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date that are expected to apply to the reversal of timing differences.  Deferred tax on revalued non-depreciable tangible fixed assets and investment properties is measured using the rates and allowances that apply to the sale of the asset.
2.13. Pensions
The group operates a defined contribution pension scheme.  Contributions payable to the group's pension scheme are charged to profit or loss in the period to which they relate.
3. Turnover
Analysis of turnover by geographical market is as follows:
