Group Strategic Report
for the Year Ended 31 December 2025

The directors present their strategic report of the company and the group for the year ended 31 December 2025.

REVIEW OF BUSINESS
The Board aims to present a review of the development and performance of the group during the year under review and its position at the year end. This review is consistent with the size and nature of the group and is written in the context of risks and uncertainties it faces.

During the period under review, the directors are pleased to report an increase in revenue of 22.5% over the previous year from £40.7m to £49.9m, primarily reflecting the full year benefit of acquisitions made during 2024, along with organic growth in a number of other depots.

The Phoenix Hire & Sales and Safety Survey & Training businesses acquired in September 2024 were fully integrated into FTH from June 2025, with Rabbit & Dowling Plant Hire having been integrated in the previous year.

The group has also continued to reinvest the profits of the business into ensuring a modern fleet of equipment is available to customers, with the only external financing being through hire purchase liabilities relating to the hire fleet.

The group considers that its key performance indicators are those that communicate the financial performance and strength of the group, primarily turnover, operating profit, EBITDA and net assets. The group saw an increase in all of these measures in 2025 as it saw the benefits materialise of the acquisitions conducted in 2024. The group looks to ensure that it remains price competitive for customers, whilst seeing the cost of labour, parts and other materials increase in the year, in addition to investing in the resources of the group to ensure it is well placed to capture the next phase of the group's growth.

The directors aim to maintain the group's existing management policies which have resulted in the group's successful period of trading. These policies include the intention to grow sales and maintain control over costs.

The directors are pleased with the overall results for the period and are confident that the group will continue to trade profitably in the future. The continuing profitability has left the group in a sound financial position at the end of the year and is in line with the group's expectations.

The directors consider that the group is in a strong position to take advantage of any profitable opportunities which may arise in the future.

KEY PERFORMANCE INDICATORS
The group considers its Key Performance Indicators to be turnover, gross profit, net assets and cash.

Group Strategic Report
for the Year Ended 31 December 2025

PRINCIPLE RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES AND FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT
The management of the group and the nature of its trading strategy are subject to a number of risks. The group operates a thorough risk assessment and management process which involves a formal review of all the risks identified and introducing processes to monitor and mitigate each risk, where possible.

The group's principal financial instruments comprise bank balances, inventories, trade debtors, trade creditors and hire purchase finance. The main purpose of these instruments is to provide funds for the group's operations. Their existence exposes the group to a number of financial risks, which have been considered and are managed as follows:

Cost inflation and supply chain
The group continues to have a strong supply chain system, which allows it to negotiate better purchasing terms and work with suppliers to improve supply chain efficiency. However, the group remains exposed to periods of cost inflation and continually assesses any risks identified with the aim of mitigating the threats these may have on the group's operations and profitability.

The group operates one of the newest hire fleets in the industry and is well placed to provide asset availability as a result of better reliability. The age profile also allows the group to optimise capital expenditure management whilst maintaining customer service.

Construction market conditions
The group is directly impacted by the construction industry with demand and pricing of the group's products dependant on the success in this sector. The group mitigates this risk by ensuring it monitors the market to ensure asset holding levels are closely monitored with its pricing strategy being constantly assessed by comparison to competitors rates.

Operational risk
Operational risk is the risk of a direct or indirect loss resulting from the inadequacies or failures of processes or controls due to technology, staff, organisation or external factors. To monitor and control operational risk, the group maintains a system of comprehensive policies and a control framework which is designed to provide a sound and well-controlled operational environment.

Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the group will have insufficient resources to meet its financial liabilities as they fall due. The group's strategy to managing liquidity risk is to ensure that the group has sufficient funds to meet all its potential liabilities as they fall due. In respect of bank balances, the liquidity risk is managed by maintaining a substantial cash balance at all times. In respect of the hire purchase finance, these are short term on low interest rates. The liquidity risk is therefore managed by ensuring there are always sufficient funds available to meet all monthly liabilities.

Price risk
Price risk is the risk that financial performance of the group will be adversely affected by pricing changes or price pressure from competitors. The group has managed this risk by securing long term contracts with its key suppliers that sets out defined parameters and pricing.


Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that the financial performance of the group will be adversely affected by adverse fluctuations on interest rates being charged to the company on its financial instruments. The interest rate risk is managed by using short term agreements with fixed low interest rates. This is deemed sufficient to mitigate this risk.

Credit risk
The group has a significant and diverse customer base, ranging from large contractors to individual operations. This, combined with undertaking stringent credit checks and the implementation of further safeguards, where necessary, minimises credit risk.

Group Strategic Report
for the Year Ended 31 December 2025


Currency risk
Currency risk is the risk that the financial performance of the group will be adversely affected by adverse fluctuations in foreign currencies used by the group. The group has minimal exposure to foreign currency risk.

The directors review the principal risks and uncertainties facing the company on a regular basis and ensure systems and policies are continuously updated to reflect any changes, they work in an efficient manner to minimise those risks and help achieve the company's objectives.

GOING CONCERN
The group's business activities, together with the factors likely to affect its future development, performance and position are set out above.

After making enquiries, the directors have an expectation that the group's cash at bank as at 31 December 2025 of £9.9m and the group's forecasts and projections for a period of 12 months from the accounts signing date are more than sufficient to provide adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. The directors have therefore concluded that it is appropriate to prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis.

Report of the Directors
for the Year Ended 31 December 2025

STATEMENT OF DIRECTORS' RESPONSIBILITIES
The directors are responsible for preparing the Group Strategic Report, 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 the group and of the profit or loss of the group 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 and the 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. They are 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.

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 group's auditors are unaware, and each director has taken all the steps that he ought to have taken as a director in order to make himself aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the group's auditors are aware of that information.

AUDITORS
The auditors, WP Audit Services LLP, have indicated their willingness to continue in office.

ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD:





P R Marsh - Director


1 May 2026

Report of the Independent Auditors to the Members of
Coxbridge Group Limited

Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of Coxbridge Group Limited (the 'parent company') and its subsidiaries (the 'group') for the year ended 31 December 2025 which comprise the Consolidated Income Statement, Consolidated Other Comprehensive Income, Consolidated Balance Sheet, Company Balance Sheet, Consolidated Statement of Changes in Equity, Company Statement of Changes in Equity, Consolidated Cash Flow Statement and Notes to the Consolidated Cash Flow Statement, 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 group's and of the parent company affairs as at 31 December 2025 and of the group's 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 group 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 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 group's and the parent 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.

Other information
The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information in the Group Strategic Report and 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 Group Strategic Report and the Report of the Directors for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and
- the Group Strategic Report and the Report of the Directors have been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.

Report of the Independent Auditors to the Members of
Coxbridge Group Limited


Matters on which we are required to report by exception
In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the group and the parent company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Group Strategic Report or 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 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 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 Statement of Directors' Responsibilities set out on page six, 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 group's and the 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.

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:

We obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory framework that the company operates in, focussing on provisions of those laws and regulations that had a direct effect on the determination of material amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The key laws and regulations we considered in this context include the Companies Act and tax legislation. In addition we considered the provisions of other laws and regulations that do not have an effect on the financial statements but compliance with which may be fundamental to the company's ability to incur or to avoid a material penalty, including the company's operating licences and environmental regulations.

Our procedures in response to the risks identified included reviewing the financial statements disclosures and testing supporting documentation to assess compliance with the provisions of relevant laws and regulations considered to have a direct effect in the financial statements, enquiring of management concerning actual or potential litigation and claims, performing analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected relationships that may indicate risks of material misstatement due to fraud, reading minutes of meetings of those charged with governance, reviewing correspondence with relevant regulatory authorities and in addressing the risk of fraud through management override of controls, testing the appropriateness of journal entries and other adjustments, assessing whether the judgements made in making accounting estimates are indicative of a potential bias and evaluating the business rationale of any significant transactions that are unusual or outside the normal course of business.

We also communicated relevant identified laws and regulations and potential audit risks to all engagement team members and remained alert to any indications of fraud or non-compliance with laws and regulations throughout the audit.

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
Coxbridge Group 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 Consolidated Financial Statements
for the Year Ended 31 December 2025

1. STATUTORY INFORMATION

Coxbridge Group 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 General Information page.

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparing the financial statements
These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with applicable United Kingdom accounting standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 - 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland' ('FRS 102'), and with the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis.

The presentation and functional currency is Pound Sterling (£).

Financial Reporting Standard 102 - reduced disclosure exemption
The individual accounts of Coxbridge Group Limited have adopted the following disclosure exemptions, as permitted by FRS 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland":

- the requirements of section 7 Statement of Cashflows.

Company Statement of Comprehensive Income

As permitted by s408 Companies Act 2006, the Company has not presented its own statement of comprehensive income. The Company's total comprehensive income for the year was £2,097,514 (2024: £1,784,856).

Basis of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements incorporate those of Coxbridge Group Limited and all of its subsidiaries (i.e. entities that the Group controls through its power to govern the financial and operating policies so as to obtain economic benefits). All financial statements are made up to 31 December 2025.

All intra-group transactions, balances and unrealised gains on transactions between group companies are eliminated on consolidation. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of an impairment of the asset transferred.

Going concern
After reviewing the group's forecasts and projections for a period of 12 months from the accounts signing date, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the group has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. The group therefore continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing its financial statements.

Revenue
Revenue is the amount derived from ordinary activities and is measure by the fair value of the consideration received or receivable and is stated net of VAT.

Revenue from the hire of plant and machinery is recognised on a straight-line basis over the period of hire. Where hire contracts include variable elements (e.g., excess hours, damage charges), these are recognised when the amount can be reliably measured and it is highly probable that a significant reversal will not occur.

Revenue from the sale of plant and equipment is recognised at the point control transfers to the customer, which is typically when the asset is delivered and the customer has accepted the risks and rewards of ownership.

Goodwill
Goodwill, being the amount paid in connection with the acquisition of businesses, is being amortised evenly over its estimated useful life of five years.

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

Tangible fixed assets
Tangible fixed assets are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost, net of depreciation and any impairment losses. Depreciation is provided on all tangible fixed assets, other than freehold land, at rates calculated to write each asset down to its estimated residual value over its expected useful life at the following rates:-

Freehold buildings - 2% on cost
Leasehold improvements - Over the period of the lease
Plant and machinery - 4% on reducing balance
Fixtures and fittings - 15% on reducing balance
Motor vehicles - 25% on reducing balance
Computer equipment - 25% on cost

Freehold land is not depreciated.

Residual value is calculated on prices prevailing at the reporting date, after estimated costs of disposal, for the asset as if it were at the age and in the condition expected at the end of its useful life.

Planned disposals of plant held for hire are transferred, at net book value, to inventory prior to sale, with the sale proceeds included in revenue.

Impairment of fixed assets
Fixed assets are reviewed for impairment if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable or as otherwise required by relevant accounting standards.

Shortfalls between the carrying value of fixed assets and their recoverable amounts, being the higher of net realisable value and value-in-use, are recognised as impairments. Impairment losses are recognised in the profit and loss account.

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

Taxation
Taxation for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the Consolidated 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.

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

Foreign currencies
Transactions in currencies other than the functional currency (foreign currencies) are initially recorded at the exchange rate prevailing on the date of the transaction.

Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the rate of exchange ruling at the reporting date. Non-monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the rate ruling at the date of the transaction or, if the asset or liability is measured at fair value, the rate when that fair value was determined.

All translation differences are taken to profit or loss, except to the extent that they relate to gains or losses on non-monetary items recognised in other comprehensive income, when the related translation gain or loss is also recognised in other comprehensive income.

Hire purchase and leasing commitments
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. Those held under finance leases are depreciated over their estimated useful lives or the lease term, whichever is the shorter.

The interest element of these obligations is charged to profit or loss over the relevant period. The capital element of the future payments is treated as a liability.

Where assets are financed by leasing agreements that give rights approximating to ownership ("finance leases"), the assets are treated as if they had been purchased outright. The amount capitalised is the present value of the minimum lease payments payable during the lease term. The corresponding leasing commitments are shown as obligations to the lessor.

Lease payments are treated as consisting of capital and interest elements, and the interest is charged to the profit and loss account in proportion to the remaining balance outstanding.

All other leases are "operating leases" and the annual rentals are charged to the profit and loss on a straight line basis over the lease term.

Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits
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.

For defined contribution schemes the amount charged to the profit and loss account in respect of pension costs and other post retirement benefits is the contributions payable in the year. Differences between contributions payable in the year and contributions actually paid are shown as either accruals or prepayments in the balance sheet.

Employee benefits
The costs of short-term employee benefits are recognised as a liability and an expense in the period in which these are incurred.

The holiday year for the group ends at the reporting date and employees are not entitled to carry forward unused holiday.

Financial instruments
The group has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 'Basic Financial Instruments' and Section 12 'Other Financial Instruments Issues' of FRS102, in full, to all of its financial instruments.

Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when the group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument, and are offset only when the group currently has a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

Financial assets
Debtors
Debtors which are receivable within one year and which do not constitute a financing transaction are initially measured at the transaction price. Debtors are subsequently measured at amortised cost, being the transaction price less any amounts settled and any impairment losses.

Where an arrangement with a debtor constitutes a financing transaction, the debtor is initially and subsequently measured at the present value of future payments discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar debt instrument.

A provision for impairment of debtors is established when there is evidence that the amounts due will not be collected according to the original terms of the contract. Impairment losses are recognised in profit or loss for the excess of the carrying value of the debtor over the present value of the future cash flows discounted using the original effective interest rate. Subsequent reversals of an impairment loss that objectively relate to an event accruing after the impairment loss was recognised, are recognised immediately in profit or loss.

Financial liabilities and equity
Creditors
Creditors which are payable within one year and which do not constitute a financing transaction are initially measured at the transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost, being the transaction price less any amounts settled.

Borrowings
Borrowings are initially recognised at the transaction price, including transaction costs, and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Interest expense is recognised on the basis of the effective interest method and is included in interest payable and other similar charges.

Derecognition of financial assets and liabilities
A financial asset is derecognised only when the contractual rights to cash flows expire or are settled, or substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are transferred to another party, or if some significant risks and rewards of ownership are retained but control of the asset has transferred to another party that is able to sell the asset in its entirety to an unrelated third party. A financial liability (or part thereof) is derecognised when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged, cancelled or expires.

Dividends
Dividends are recognised as liabilities once they are no longer at the discretion of the group.

Investment in subsidiaries
The consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the company and entities (including special purpose entities) controlled by the group (its subsidiaries). Control is achieved where the group has the power to govern the financial and operating policies of an entity so as to obtain benefits for its activities.

The results of subsidiaries acquired or disposed of during the year are included in total comprehensive income from the effective date of acquisition and up to the effective date of disposal, as appropriate using accounting policies consistent with those of the parent. All intra-group transactions, balances, income and expenses are eliminated in full on consolidation.

Investments in subsidiaries are accounted for at cost less impairment in the individual financial statements.

Critical accounting estimates and areas of judgement
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.

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

Critical accounting estimates and assumptions
The company makes estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The resulting accounting estimates and assumptions will, by definition, seldom equal the related actual results. 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 discussed below.

Depreciation of plant and machinery
Plant and machinery is depreciated at a rate of 4% reducing balance. The directors have assessed the depreciation rates provided on the plant and machinery to write down each asset to its estimated residual value over its expected useful life. The assessment of residual value and useful life is inherently subjective as it is made on the basis of previous resale activity which may in future not prove to be accurate.

Goodwill amortisation
The amortisation of goodwill requires management to exercise judgement in determining the appropriate useful life of acquired goodwill and assessing whether indicators of impairment exist. These estimates are based on expected future economic benefits, historical performance, and market conditions. Changes in these assumptions could materially affect the amortisation charge recognised in the period.

Provision for bad debts
Estimates are made in respect of determining the recoverability of trade debtor balances. A provision is made within the financial statements against specific trade debtor balances only where the directors believe there is a probability that the customer will not settle their debt due. The assessment of recoverability is however inherently subjective as it is made on the basis of previous activity and communications with the customer which may in the future not prove to be accurate.
