Strategic Report
The directors present their strategic report for the year ended 31 October 2025.
Review of the Business
The Board of Directors are pleased to report a further year of positive performance and continued progress against the company’s strategic objectives. During the year, the business continued to grow, supported by a resilient and increasingly diversified order book across multiple sectors and long-term relationships with both blue-chip contractors and local authorities. This ongoing demand provides a sound platform for sustainable development, continued investment in products and services, and measured expansion of operational capacity.
Further progress has been made in strengthening the company’s internal infrastructure, systems, and workforce capability. Investment in technology, governance, and operational processes remains a priority and supports the organisation’s ability to respond effectively to evolving client requirements and market expectations.
Looking ahead, the Board remains focused on maintaining a well-governed, innovative, and agile business. The company will continue to prioritise the delivery of high-quality services across its core sectors while retaining the disruptive mindset, operational discipline, and adaptability that have supported its performance to date.
Principal risks and uncertainties
The execution of the company's strategy is subject to several risks.
The key risks identified by the directors include:
Safety and wellbeing of our employees
The safety and wellbeing of employees remain a fundamental priority for the company. In support of continuous improvement, the company has continued to invest in its compliance and governance framework, with dedicated resource focused on the proactive identification and management of operational risk.
The company maintains ISO45001 Health and Safety Management certification and remains committed to embedding its principles across all levels of the organisation. The use of the company’s bespoke internal systems supports real-time safety reporting, monitoring, and auditing, ensuring that risks are recorded, reviewed, and addressed in a timely manner. Safety-related KPIs are incorporated across operational and management roles, reinforcing accountability and ensuring that safety performance remains a shared responsibility.
The company also recognises the wider importance of employee wellbeing. A dedicated wellbeing platform is now well established to provide employees with access to support covering mental health, physical wellbeing, financial wellbeing, sleep, and stress management. The directors believe this contributes to a supportive working environment and supports the long-term sustainability of the workforce.
Political, economic and public funding environment
The company operates within a sector that is influenced by wider political, economic, and public sector funding conditions, particularly in relation to infrastructure investment and local authority expenditure. The current operating environment continues to present uncertainty in certain areas, including the timing of funding decisions and the pace of procurement activity.
Notwithstanding this, the directors note that the UK Government has publicly reaffirmed its commitment to investment in national infrastructure, including the ongoing maintenance and improvement of the road network. The directors believe that highways and related services will therefore remain a priority area of public spending over the medium to long term.
The company’s focus on delivering efficient, value-for-money services aligns with the objectives typically seen across public sector clients. In addition, the company continues to mitigate its exposure to political and funding cycles through the ongoing development of its private sector portfolio. This diversification supports revenue stability and reduces reliance on any single market segment, helping to maintain resilience in a changing external environment.
Principal Risks and Uncertainties
Cash flow and working capital management
The directors recognise that continued business growth can place additional demands on working capital and cash flow management. The company therefore maintains a strong focus on credit control, payment application processes, and invoicing procedures, supporting timely cash collection and effective cash conversion.
...CONTINUED
Page 1
Page 2
Principal Risks and Uncertainties - continued
The company has worked to develop an operating model capable of scaling in line with customer demand while avoiding over-commitment of resources or fixed cost exposure.  As a result, the business is now in a position where it operates without long-term borrowing or material external debt. The directors believe this conservative financial structure provides flexibility to respond to changing market conditions while supporting continued sustainable growth.
Cost inflation and supply chain pressures
The company continues to operate in an environment where increases in the cost of plant, materials, fuel, and labour may place pressure on operating margins. Managing cost inflation and supply chain availability therefore remains an ongoing area of focus for the directors.
To mitigate this risk, the company continues to develop long-term relationships with key suppliers and to leverage its scale of operations to secure competitive and, where possible, stable pricing arrangements. This approach assists in managing cost volatility while maintaining operational flexibility in response to changes in demand.
Where contractually appropriate, the company also seeks to incorporate index-linked pricing mechanisms within customer agreements, enabling rates to reflect inflationary movements over the duration of contracts. The directors believe this approach supports margin stability and assists longer-term commercial planning in a changing cost environment.
Key personnel
The company continues to benefit from a well-established organisational structure that supports both effective day-to-day operations and longer-term strategic development. 
During the year, further responsibility has been delegated across the leadership structure, enabling members of the non-executive board and senior leadership team to reduce involvement in certain operational matters and dedicate greater focus to strategic planning, governance oversight, and the continued development of the business.
Departments continue to be led by experienced senior managers responsible for operational delivery across their respective areas, ensuring effective communication and consistent performance throughout the organisation. 
To support continued growth and operational improvement, updated organisational and individual KPI frameworks have been introduced across the business, aligning performance objectives with wider company goals. Particular emphasis has been placed on safety, innovation, customer satisfaction, and sustainable profitability.
This structure supports clarity of responsibility, strengthens accountability, and maintains the agility required to respond to client needs and industry developments while preserving the company’s core values and service standards.
Product quality and delivery
The company continues to focus on delivering innovative and environmentally responsible solutions through the use of market-leading equipment and strong partnerships with established suppliers.
Ongoing market research and engagement with customers and supply chain partners have identified further opportunities to enhance the company’s service offering through the introduction of new technologies and operational capabilities. As a result, the business expects to introduce additional equipment and solutions over the next one to two years in collaboration with key partners, further strengthening its existing portfolio of specialist plant and equipment.
These developments, combined with the company’s established service delivery capability, are expected to support improvements in productivity, carbon reduction, and cost efficiency for clients. The directors believe this will create further opportunities for sustainable growth across both existing and new customer relationships, while long-term contractual arrangements with key clients continue to provide stability for the business.
Financial Instruments (Price risk, credit risk, liquidity risk, exchange rate risk and cash flow risk)
The company's principal financial instruments comprise bank balances, trade debtors, trade creditors and an invoice financing facility. The main purpose of these instruments is to finance the company's operations.
In respect of the bank balances, the liquidity risk is managed by maintaining a balance, and by holding the balance in such a way that it is readily accessible whilst attracting a competitive rate of interest.
Trade debtors are managed in respect of credit and cash flow risk by controls over the credit offered to customers and regular monitoring of outstanding amounts. The amount for trade debtors in the accounts is stated net of any provision for bad debts.
The liquidity risk associated with trade creditors is managed by ensuring there are sufficient funds to meet amounts as they fall due.

Future Developments
As referenced within this report, the company is preparing to introduce two significant operational innovations to the market. The directors anticipate an initial period of controlled market implementation, with selected clients identified to support the early deployment and validation of these solutions. Subject to successful operational delivery, the company intends to progressively introduce these products and associated services across both existing and new customer relationships.
Investment in strengthening the company’s operational infrastructure has also continued during the year, with significant development undertaken at the company’s headquarters in Darwen, Lancashire. The business now operates from newly developed office facilities designed to accommodate future operational growth, alongside expanded workshop and service facilities supporting the company’s specialist fleet and operational activities.
Further development works remain ongoing and are expected to be completed within the next 12 to 18 months, providing additional operational capacity to support continued growth.
Key performance indicators
We consider that our key financial indicators which communicate the financial performance and strength of the company are turnover, gross profit and net assets.
During the year covered by these accounts, the company's turnover has increased by 18.42% to £41,698,550 (31 October 2024: £35,210,957). Gross profit has decreased to 16.27% (31 October 2024: 17.62%) and net assets have increased to £7,882,015 (31 October 2024: £5,731,465).

Matters covered in the Strategic Report
Disclosures required under s416(4) of the Companies Act 2006 are commented upon in the Strategic Report as the directors consider them to be of strategic importance to the business.
Statement of Directors' Responsibilities
The directors are responsible for preparing the Strategic Report, the Directors' Report 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, comprising FRS102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland', 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 the financial statements the directors are 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 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.
The directors are 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.

Independent Auditor's Report
Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of Multevo Limited for the year ended 31 October 2025 which comprise the Profit and Loss Account, Statement of Comprehensive Income, Balance Sheet, Statement of Changes of Equity, 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 company's affairs as at 31 October 2025 and of its 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 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 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 entity'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 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. 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 Directors' Report for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and
  • the Strategic Report and Directors' Report have been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.
Page 6
Page 7
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 Strategic Report or the Directors' 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, 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 or 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 Directors' Responsibilities Statement set out on page 4—5, 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 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 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.

Page 8
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 auditors 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.
Our approach to identifying and assessing the risks of material misstatement in respect of irregularities, including fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations, was as follows:
• the Senior Statutory Auditor ensured that the audit team collectively had the appropriate competence, capabilities and skills 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;
• 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 and corruption legislation, quality management system, anti-slavery and employment, environmental, construction, health and safety at work other industry specific accreditations and health and safety legislation;
• we assessed the extent of compliance with the 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 instances 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; and
• considering the internal controls in place to mitigate risks of fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations.
To address the risk of fraud through management bias and override of controls, we:
• performed analytical procedures to identify any 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.
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;
• reading the minutes of meetings of those charged with governance;
• enquiring of management as to actual and potential litigation and claims; and
• reviewing correspondence with HMRC, relevant regulators including the Health and Safety Executive, and the company's legal advisors.
There are inherent limitations in our audit procedures described above. The more removed that laws and  regulations are from financial transactions, the less likely it is that we would become aware of non-compliance. Auditing standards also limit the audit procedures required to identify non-compliance with laws and regulations to enquiry of the directors and other management and the inspection of regulatory and legal correspondence, if any.
A further description of our responsibilities is available on the Financial Reporting Council’s website at: https://www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditors report.

Notes to the Financial Statements
1. General Information
Multevo Limited is a private company, limited by shares, incorporated in England & Wales, registered number 07308583 . The registered office is Units 1-3 Off Charles Street, Duckworth Street, Darwen, Lancashire, BB3 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.
The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the company. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.
2.2. Turnover
Turnover is recognised at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable for goods and services provided in the normal course of business, and is shown net of VAT and other sales related taxes. The fair value of consideration takes into account trade discounts, settlement discounts and volume rebates.
Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised when the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods have passed to the buyer (usually on dispatch of the goods), the amount of revenue can be measured reliably, it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the entity and the costs incurred or to be incurred in respect of the transaction can be measured reliably.
2.3. Tangible Fixed Assets and Depreciation
Tangible fixed assets are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write off the cost of the fixed assets, less their estimated residual value, over their expected useful lives on the following bases:
Plant & Machinery 7.5% - 15% Reducing Balance
Motor Vehicles 25% Reducing Balance
Computer Equipment 33.3% Straight Line
2.4. 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 stocks.
Cost is determined using the first-in, first-out method. Cost includes all direct costs and an appropriate proportion of fixed and variable overheads.
Work in progress is reflected in the accounts on a contract by contract basis by recording turnover and related costs as contract activity progresses.
At the end of each reporting period stocks are assessed for impairment. If an item of stock is impaired, the identified stock is reduced to its selling price less costs to complete and sell and an impairment charge is recognised in the profit and loss account. Where a reversal of the impairment is required the impairment charge is reversed, up to the original impairment loss, and is recognised as a credit in the profit and loss account.
2.5. Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents are basic financial assets and include cash in hand and deposits held at call with banks, other short-term highly liquid investments that mature in no more than three months from the date of acquisition and are readily convertible to a known amount of cash with insignificant risk of change in value, and bank overdrafts.
Page 16
Page 17
2.6. Financial Instruments
The company has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 ‘Basic Financial Instruments’ and Section 12 ‘Other Financial Instruments Issues’ 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 debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method 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. Financial assets classified as receivable within one year are not amortised.
Basic financial liabilities
Basic financial liabilities, including creditors, bank loans, loans from fellow group companies and preference shares that are classified as debt, are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortised.
Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. Amounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade creditors are recognised initially at transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
2.7. Foreign Currencies
Monetary 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 ruling on the date of the transaction. Exchange differences are taken into account in arriving at the operating profit.
2.8. 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 company'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 is recognised on timing differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all taxable timing differences. Deferred tax assets are generally recognised for all deductible temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which those deductible timing differences can be utilised. The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period in which the liability is settled or the asset realised, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period. Deferred tax liabilities are presented within provisions for liabilities and deferred tax assets within debtors. The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets reflect the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the Company expects, at the end of the reporting period, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.
Current and deferred tax are recognised in profit or loss for the year, except when they relate to items that are recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case current and deferred tax are recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity respectively.
2.9. Employee Benefits
The costs of short-term employee benefits are recognised as a liability and an expense.
The cost of any unused holiday entitlement is recognised in the period in which the employee's services are received.
Page 17
Page 18
2.10. Retirement benefits
Payments to defined contribution retirement benefit schemes are charged as an expense as they fall due.
2.11. Judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty
In the application of the company’s accounting policies, the directors are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount 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 where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods.
