| Group Strategic Report |
| for the Year Ended 31 August 2025 |
| The director presents his strategic report of the Company and the Group for the year ended 31 August 2025. |
| REVIEW OF BUSINESS |
| We aim to present a balanced and comprehensive review of the development and performance of our |
| business during the period and its position at the period end. Our review is consistent with the size and nature of the business and is written in the context of the risks and uncertainties we face. |
| As for many businesses of our size, the business environment in which we operate continues to be challenging and markets competitive. We continue to give due regard to these risks and uncertainties in planning the future development of the business. These accounts represent the second period for the newly formed group and the first full year of trade. A detailed review of the business with year on year comparatives is documented within the trading subsidiary accounts, Roofdec Limited. |
| The group's financial projections indicate that it has sufficient facilities and funds to operate for at least the next 12 months. Accordingly, the director has a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate financial resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future and so the financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis. |
| PRINCIPAL RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES |
| The group's operations expose it to a variety of financial risks that include the effects of credit risk, liquidity risk and interest rate risk. The group does not use derivative financial instruments to manage interest rate costs and as such, no hedge accounting is applied. |
| The director is responsible for monitoring financial risk and for deciding where it would be appropriate to use financial instruments to manage this risk. |
| Credit risk |
| The group has implemented policies that require appropriate credit checks on potential customers before credit sales are made. |
| Liquidity risk |
| The group maintains its liquidity using cash and bank deposits together with overdraft finance where |
| necessary. The director would consider raising long-term and short-term debt finance if this were necessary to ensure that the group has sufficient funds for operations and planned expansions. |
| Interest rate cash flow risk |
| The group has both interest bearing assets and interest bearing liabilities. Interest bearing assets are cash and bank deposits which earn interest at a variable rate. Interest bearing liabilities comprise the 's group's hire purchase liabilities. The director regularly reviews the mix of cash on deposit and debt to manage interest rate risk. The director will revisit the appropriateness of this policy should the group's operations change in size or nature. |
| KEY PERFORMANCE INDICATORS |
| I consider that our key financial performance indicators are those that communicate the financial performance of the group, these being turnover, operating profit, profit before tax, profit after tax and retained profit. |
| ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD: |
| Thirteen Investment Group Limited (Registered number: 15373364) |
| Report of the Director |
| for the Year Ended 31 August 2025 |
| The director presents his report with the financial statements of the Company and the Group for the year ended 31 August 2025. |
| PRINCIPAL ACTIVITY |
| The principal activity of the company was that of a group holding company. |
| The principal activity of the Group in the year under review was that of roofing and cladding contractors. |
| DIVIDENDS |
| The total distribution of dividends for the year ended 31 August 2025 will be £784,132. |
| DIRECTOR |
| DISCLOSURE IN THE STRATEGIC REPORT |
| The company has chosen in accordance with section 414C(11) of the Companies Act 2006 (Strategic Report and Directors' Report) Regulations 2013 to set out in the company's strategic report information required by schedule 7 of the Large and Medium-sized Companies and Groups (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008. This includes information that would have been included in the business review and the principal risks and uncertainties. |
| STATEMENT OF DIRECTOR'S RESPONSIBILITIES |
| The director is responsible for preparing the Group Strategic Report, the Report of the Director 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 and applicable law). Under company law the director must not approve the financial statements unless he is 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 director is 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 director is 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 him 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. |
| STATEMENT AS TO DISCLOSURE OF INFORMATION TO AUDITORS |
| So far as the director is 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 he 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. |
| Thirteen Investment Group Limited (Registered number: 15373364) |
| Report of the Director |
| for the Year Ended 31 August 2025 |
| AUDITORS |
| The auditors, Harris & Co Limited, will be proposed for re-appointment at the forthcoming Annual General Meeting. |
| ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD: |
| Independent Auditors' Report to the Members of |
| Thirteen Investment Group Limited |
| Opinion |
| We have audited the financial statements of Thirteen Investment Group Limited (the 'Parent Company') and its subsidiaries (the 'Group') for the year ended 31 August 2025 which comprise the Consolidated Statement of 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 August 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 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'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 director with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report. |
| Other information |
| The director is responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information in the Group Strategic Report and the Report of the Director, but does not include the financial statements and our Auditors' Report 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 Director 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 Director have been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements. |
| Independent Auditors' Report to the Members of |
| Thirteen Investment 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 Director. |
| 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 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 director |
| As explained more fully in the Statement of Director's Responsibilities set out on page three, 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 determines 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'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 director either intends to liquidate the Group or the Parent Company or to cease operations, or has 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 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. |
| Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. |
| The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below: |
| Identifying and assessing potential risks related to irregularities |
| In identifying and assessing risks of material misstatement in respect of irregularities, including fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations, our procedures included the following: |
| - | Enquiring of management, including obtaining and reviewing supporting documentation, concerning the company's policies and procedures relating to: |
- |
Identifying, evaluating and complying with laws and regulations and whether they were aware of any instances of non-compliance; |
- |
Detecting and responding to the risks of fraud and whether they have knowledge of any actual, suspected or alleged fraud; |
- |
The internal controls established to mitigate risk related to fraud or non-compliance with laws & regulations; |
| - | Obtaining an understanding of the legal and regulatory frameworks that the company operates in, focusing on those laws and regulations that had a direct effect on the financial statements or that had a fundamental effect on the operations of the company. The key laws and regulations we considered in this context included the Companies Act 2006, tax legislation, data protection, anti-bribery, employment and health & safety regulations. |
| 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 Auditors' Report. |
| Independent Auditors' Report to the Members of |
| Thirteen Investment Group Limited |
| Audit response to the risk identified |
| Our procedures to respond to risks identified included the following: |
| - | Reviewing the financial statement disclosures and testing to supporting documentation to assess compliance with relevant laws and regulations; |
| - | Enquiring of management concerning actual and potential litigation and claims; |
| - | Performing analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected relationships that may indicate risk of material misstatement due to fraud; and |
| - | In addressing the risk of fraud through management override of controls, testing the appropriateness of journal entries and other adjustments; assessing the judgements used in accounting estimates to assess whether these may be indicative of potential bias; and evaluating the business rationale of any significant transactions that are unusual or outside the normal course of business. |
| 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. |
| 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 an Auditors' Report 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. |

| least the next 12 months. The directors have a reasonable expectation that the Group has adequate financial resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future and so the financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis. |
| Financial Reporting Standard 102 - reduced disclosure exemptions |
| The company is a qualifying entity for the purposes of FRS 102, being a member of a group where the parent of that group prepares publicly available consolidated financial statements, including this company, which are intended to give a true and fair view of the assets, liabilities, financial position and profit or loss of the group. The company has therefore taken advantage of exemptions from the following disclosure requirements for parent company information presented within the consolidated financial statements: |
| - | Section 7 ‘Statement of Cash Flows’: Presentation of a statement of cash flow and related notes and disclosures; |
| - | Section 11 ‘Basic Financial Instruments’ and Section 12 ‘Other Financial Instrument Issues: Interest income/expense and net gains/losses for financial instruments not measured at fair value; basis of determining fair values; details of collateral, loan defaults or breaches, details of hedges, hedging fair value changes recognised in profit or loss and in other comprehensive income; |
| - | Section 33 ‘Related Party Disclosures’: Compensation for key management personnel. |
| Basis of consolidation |
| The consolidated group financial statements consist of the financial statements of the parent company Thirteen Investment Group together with all entities controlled by the parent company (its subsidiaries). |
| All financial statements are made up to 31 August 2025. Where necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to bring the accounting policies used into line with those used by other members of the group. |
| 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. |
| Subsidiaries are consolidated in the group's financial statements from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases. |

| Significant judgements and estimates |
| In preparing these financial statements, the director has made the following significant judgements |
| and estimates. Profit recognition on long-term contracts is based upon the directors' assessment of |
| the likely ultimate outturn on those contracts, taking into account the stage of completion. The |
| director also makes appropriate provision for warranty and rectification costs on contracts taking into account the likelihood of claims. |
| Turnover |
| Turnover represents amounts earned on goods and services supplied during the year, and in the case |
| of long-term contracts, comprises the value of work executed during the year. |
| Amounts recoverable on long term contracts, which are included in debtors, are stated at the net sales |
| value of the work done after provisions for contingencies and anticipated future losses on contracts, |
| less amounts received as progress payments on account. Excess progress payments are included in |
| creditors as payments received on account. |
| Goodwill |
| Intangible assets |
| Intangible assets are initially measured at cost. After initial recognition, intangible assets are measured at cost less any accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses. |
| Tangible fixed assets |
| Short leasehold | - |
| Plant and machinery | - |
| Motor vehicles | - |
| Computer equipment | - |
| Tangible assets are initially recorded at cost, and subsequently stated at cost less any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. |
| A review for indicators of impairment is carried out at each reporting date, with the recoverable amount being estimated where such indicators exist. Where the carrying value exceeds the recoverable amount, the asset is impaired accordingly. Prior impairments are also reviewed for possible reversal at each reporting date. |
| For the purposes of impairment testing, when it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, an estimate is made of the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to |
| which the asset belongs. |
| Investments in associates |
| Equity investments are measured at fair value through profit or loss, except for those equity investments that are not publicly traded and whose fair value cannot otherwise be measured reliably, which are recognised at cost less impairment until a reliable measure of fair value becomes available. |
| In the parent company financial statements, investments in subsidiaries, associates and jointly controlled entities are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. |
| A subsidiary is an entity controlled by the group. Control is the power to govern the financial and operating policies of the entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities. |

| Stocks |
| Stocks 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 Statement of Comprehensive Income, 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. |
| 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. |
| 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. |

| During the prior year Thirteen Investment Group Limited acquired a 100% shareholding in Roofdec Holdings Limited. In using the equity method of accounting, the transaction price has been adjusted for implicit goodwill and fair value adjustments. Namely the difference between the cost of acquisition and the fair value of the net identifiable assets of Roofdec Holdings Limited resulted in the recognition of implicit negative goodwill of £1,626,103 in the period ended 31 August 2024. Subsequently implicit negative goodwill is released to the profit and loss account over the expected life of the negative goodwill, which in the case of the investment in Roofdec Holdings Limited is deemed to be 10 years. |
