STRATEGIC REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025
In our strategic report, we aim to present a fair 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 non-complex nature of our business and is written in the context of any risks and uncertainties we face.
The principal activity of the company is to design, manufacture and sell wooden jigsaw puzzles into domestic and export markets. The Company’s primary sales strategy is direct-to-consumer through UK, US and EU websites.
In 2025 the primary objectives were to relocate the business to new premises, aim to growing turnover by 7% and at least maintain the same level of operating profit. The growth strategy was focussed on customer retention and acquisition, whilst achieving a 12-month return on investment. In our principal markets, the difficult trading environment for consumer goods brands continued into 2025. This was further compounded by other factors; a 6.7% increase in minimum wage, an increase in employers’ national insurance to 15%, the introduction of 10% US tariffs and subsequent removal of the $800 de minimis threshold on US orders in September. Due to increases in operating costs, we increased our prices by 5% at the start of the year. To mitigate the effect of tariffs, we took a measured decision to increase prices by a further 5% in the US from October. Despite these pressures on sales and profit, we delivered a strong performance with growth in turnover of 4.5% to £12.4 million and a close to expectations 6.7% growth if exchange revaluation of £265k is stripped out. There was a marginal reduction in operating profit year on year (£1,936k v £1,958k). However, if adjusted for exceptionals, relocation costs (£386k) and tariffs (£305k) we increased operating profit by 34.1% on prior year. This was achieved through planned relocation efficiency gains and marketing cost savings from short term discounts offered in catalogue print and postage. In May 2025, the company relocated to new larger premises. This included a bespoke fit out to accommodate our operations, which was carefully planned and successfully executed. Both people and operations were seamlessly relocated with minimal disruption, resulting in a much more professional working environment, commensurate with our business size and aspirations. In addition to the capital expenditure for the relocation, a new laser was purchased and delivered in July 2025, to further extend our production capacity. The business holds appropriate cash reserves to underwrite future capital investments and to facilitate working capital requirements. The company paid a year-end bonus to all employees reflecting their contributions towards performance and rewarding them for their hard work. Although it is discretionary, it is dependent on the level of achieved profitability so keeps employees focused on delivering value to the company. It has been accrued as at 2025 year-end and was paid in January 2026.
Economic and geo-political uncertainty increased during 2025, leading to flat or downward consumer spending forecasts, which in the short term creates an unpredictable operating environment. However, we believe our reputation for high quality service and products, which create much needed relaxing and mindful moments, will continue to engender customer loyalty and attract new customers.
Much of the risk and uncertainty for the company stems from the external environment and is uncontrollable. However, we endeavour to manage the controllables, including underwriting budgeted exchange rates through effective currency hedging and using our buying power and supplier relationships to mitigate cost increases.

STRATEGIC REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025
Profit before tax decreased by 2.1% in 2025 to £2,011,210 (2024; £2,054,096). This was due to the one-off cost of relocating the business, increases in operating costs in people and materials. An element of the increase was due to external pressures, an uplift in the minimum wage, an increase in employers’ national insurance, and the imposition of tariffs in the US. However, as aforementioned, if we strip out the exceptionals, relocation and tariffs (£690,975), profit before tax would be £2,702,185 an increase of 31.6% on the prior year.
Product sales in the UK increased by 7.0% and in the Rest of the World sales increased by 3.5%.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF THE WENTWORTH WOODEN JIGSAW COMPANY LIMITED
We have audited the financial statements of The Wentworth Wooden Jigsaw Company Limited (the 'Company') for the year ended 31 December 2025, which comprise the Statement of comprehensive income, the Balance sheet, the Statement of cash flows, the Statement of changes in equity, Analysis of net debt 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 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.
The other information comprises the information included in the Annual Report other than the financial statements and our Auditor's 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.

THE WENTWORTH WOODEN JIGSAW COMPANY LIMITED
INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF THE WENTWORTH WOODEN JIGSAW COMPANY LIMITED (CONTINUED)
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.
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.
The specific procedures for this engagement that we designed and performed to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud, were as follows:
∙Enquiry of management and those charged with governance around actual and potential litigation and claims;
∙Enquiry of management and those charged with governance to identify any material instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations;
∙Reviewing board minutes to identify any matters relevant to the financial statements, including governance issues and events that may require disclosure or impact the financial statements;
∙Reviewing financial statement disclosures and testing to supporting documentation to assess compliance with applicable laws and regulations;
∙Performing audit work to address the risk of irregularities due to management override of controls including testing of journal entries and other adjustments for appropriateness, evaluating the business rationale of significant transactions outside the normal course of business and reviewing accounting estimates for evidence of bias.
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 Auditor's report.

2.Accounting policies (continued)
The fair value of the award also takes into account non-vesting conditions. These are either factors beyond the control of either party (such as a target based on an index) or factors which are within the control of one or other of the parties (such as the Company keeping the scheme open or the employee maintaining any contributions required by the scheme). Where the terms and conditions of options are modified before they vest, the increase in the fair value of the options, measured immediately before and after the modification, is also charged to profit or loss over the remaining vesting period. Where equity instruments are granted to persons other than employees, profit or loss is charged with fair value of goods and services received.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025
2.Accounting policies (continued)
Provisions are measured as the best estimate of the amount required to settle the obligation, taking into account the related risks and uncertainties.
The Company has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 “Basic Financial Instruments” of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments.
Financial instruments are recognised in the Company's Balance sheet when the Company becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the financial statements, when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
Basic financial assets
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.
Impairment of financial assets
At the end of each reporting period financial assets measured at amortised cost are assessed for objective evidence of impairment. If an asset is impaired the impairment loss is the difference between the carrying amount and the present value of the estimated cash flows discounted at the asset’s original effective interest rate. The impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss.
Financial assets are impaired when events, subsequent to their initial recognition, indicate the estimated future cash flows derived from the financial asset(s) have been adversely impacted. The impairment loss will be the difference between the current carrying amount and the present value of the future cash flows at the asset(s) original effective interest rate.
If there is a favourable change in relation to the events surrounding the impairment loss then the impairment can be reviewed for possible reversal. The reversal will not cause the current carrying amount to exceed the original carrying amount had the impairment not been recognised. The impairment reversal is recognised in the profit or loss.
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.

THE WENTWORTH WOODEN JIGSAW COMPANY LIMITED
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025
2.Accounting policies (continued)
Basic financial liabilities, which include trade and other creditors 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.
Derecognition of financial instruments
Derecognition of financial assets
Financial assets are derecognised when their contractual right to future cash flow expire, or are settled, or when the Company transfers the asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to another party. If significant risks and rewards of ownership are retained after the transfer to another party, then the Company will continue to recognise the value of the portion of the risks and rewards retained.
Derecognition of financial liabilities
Financial liabilities are derecognised when the Company's contractual obligations expire or are discharged or cancelled.
Tangible fixed assets Tangible fixed assets are depreciated over their useful lives taking into account residual values, where appropriate. The actual lives of the assets and residual values are assessed annually and may vary depending on a number factors. Residual value assessments consider issues such as the remaining life of the asset and projected disposal values.
