Strategic report
For the year ended 31 May 2025
The directors present their strategic report for the year ended 31 May 2025.
The principal activity of the company is that of supply, installation and maintenance of all types of signage.
The turnover for the period was £18.4m (2023/24: £15.0m).
Operating both domestically and internationally, Pearce Signs Limited specialises in the design, manufacture, supply, installation, and maintenance of high-quality signage and visual branding solutions across the retail, banking, commercial, industrial, corporate markets. The Company provides a fully integrated end-to-end service, encompassing concept development, project management, fabrication, logistics, installation, and ongoing aftercare support. Pearce Signs continues to focus on delivering exceptional quality, operational reliability, and long-term value for its customers through strong project execution and technical expertise. During the year, the Company operated in a challenging economic environment marked by inflationary pressures and rising material and energy costs. Despite these conditions, Pearce Signs delivered improved revenue performance by supporting key customer accounts, pursuing repeat business opportunities, and successfully acquiring new UK and international clients, contributing to growth. Continued emphasis was placed on: • Maintaining strong health, safety, and environmental standards. • Investing in office infrastructure and manufacturing facilities. • Implementing new IT systems to support efficiency, scalability, and improved business processes. • Strengthening quality assurance and project delivery standards. • Developing long-term customer partnerships and recurring revenue opportunities. • Supporting employee engagement, development, and retention. The Directors recognise that the continued success of the Company is directly linked to the commitment, professionalism, and hard work of its employees and would like to acknowledge and thank the workforce for its ongoing contribution throughout the year. The Company also remains committed to sustainable business practices, responsible environmental management, and long-term strategic development, while continuing to carefully manage operational and financial risk. Looking ahead, although wider economic conditions remain uncertain, Pearce Signs is well-positioned to continue a sustainable business through its established market reputation, technical capability, nationwide and international delivery experience, integrated service offering, and experienced workforce. As detailed in notes 2.3 and 27, the Company incurred a loss during the 11 months ended 30 April 2026 which is being remedied through restructuring of both operations and external finance, cost savings and personnel changes. March and April 2026 management figures were much improved and the Company is able to meet its liabilities as they fall due.

Market risk
The signage market can present unpredictable and variable levels of activity, influenced by general economic conditions and timing of major rebranding decisions or mergers and acquisitions by clients. The company considers that its customer base of high quality clients over a broad sector spread mitigates this risk. Inflation risk In a highly competitive and price-sensitive market, opportunities to pass on the effects of inflation can be more limited. The company addresses this risk by continually reviewing its production processes and driving efficiencies and enhancements to raw material sourcing. Long term fixed price energy contracts have protected the business from increasing energy costs. Foreign exchange risk Increased export activity can lead to exposure to currency fluctuations and the company seeks to address this risk where possible by fixing exchange rates at the start of a significant contract and by offsetting sales receipts and supplier payments in matching currencies where appropriate. Health and safety risk The company operates machinery and carries out services with an inherent safety risk to project workers. Health and Safety procedures and multiple accreditations supported by thorough training ensure that the company’s safety record is excellent. Capacity constraints The company uses several subcontract suppliers in specific markets, providing increased capacity and flexibility. Significant investment has been made in new equipment and improving the workflow and available production space in prior years and this has increased capacity for all signage types. Key performance indicators The business sets and monitors annual and monthly key performance indicators which have been in accordance with expectations and targets for the year ended 31 May 2025. These include order input, sales by market (see note 3) and customer, margins (gross profit percentage is 35.9%) and operating cash flow (£201,923).
This report was approved by the board on 3 June 2026 and signed on its behalf.

Directors' report
For the year ended 31 May 2025
The directors present their report and the financial statements for the year ended 31 May 2025.
The profit for the year, after taxation, amounted to £840,720 (2024 - £1,022,298). Dividends were £240,000 (2024 - £185,000).
The directors who served during the year were:
The company undertakes a system of budgetary control and regular forecast updates to ensure that its performance and KPI’s are achieved, business risks are identified and mitigating actions are prioritised. The Board regularly reviews the continued effectiveness of its risk management and internal control systems and has established procedures to review its business risks and implement any necessary corrective actions as required.
Customer contracts are awarded following tender submissions and are for a specific number of sites or a defined period of time. Pricing is fixed for the duration of these contracts. Longer term contracts may include a price review mechanism. The company regularly meets with its customers to ensure the business remains competitive and service levels are being achieved.
Default on debts due to customer insolvency is a continuing risk. The company undertakes credit checks in advance of committing resources to a new project, and the quality and spread of the customer base means that this risk is reduced as far as is possible. The company regularly forecasts cash flow and its funding requirements to ensure the availability of liquidity and the adequacy of its banking facilities and to ensure that bank covenants are not breached.
The Company incurred a loss during the 11 months ended 30 April 2026. Further details are provided within the Strategic report.

Directors' responsibilities statement
For the year ended 31 May 2025
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 applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice), including Financial Reporting Standard 102 ‘The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland'. 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 these financial statements, the directors are required to:
∙select suitable accounting policies for the company's financial statements and then apply them consistently;
∙make judgements and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
∙state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards 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 to 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.

Independent auditors' report to the members of Pearce Signs Limited
We have audited the financial statements of Pearce Signs Limited (the 'company') for the year ended 31 May 2025, which comprise the Profit and loss account, the Balance sheet, the Statement of cash flows, the Statement of changes in equity 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).
We draw attention to note 2.3 in the financial statements which indicates that the Company incurred a loss during the 11 months ended 30 April 2026 and has resulted in a significant decrease in the Company's net current assets. These events and conditions, along with the other matters as set forth in note 2.3, indicate that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.
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.
Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the directors with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.

Independent auditors' report to the members of Pearce Signs Limited (continued)
The other information comprises the information included in the Annual Report other than the financial statements and our Auditors' 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.
In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:
∙the information given in the Strategic report and the Directors' report for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and
∙the Strategic report and the Directors' report have been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.
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.

Independent auditors' report to the members of Pearce Signs 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 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:
We obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory frameworks within which the company operates, focusing on those laws and regulations that have a direct effect on the determination of material amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The laws and regulations we considered in this context were the Companies Act 2006, taxation legislation and money laundering regulations.
We identified the greatest risk of material impact on the financial statements from irregularities, including fraud, to be the override of controls by management and the understatement of revenue. Our audit procedures to respond to these risks included: • Enquiries of management about their own identification and assessment of the risks of irregularities. • Sample testing on the posting of journals. • Reviewing regulatory correspondence and professional fees. • Detailed substantive testing on the completeness of income. Owing to the inherent limitations of an audit, there is an unavoidable risk that we may not have detected some material misstatements in the financial statements, even though we have properly planned and performed our audit in accordance with auditing standards. We are not responsible for preventing non-compliance and cannot be expected to detect non-compliance with all laws and regulations. These inherent limitations are particularly significant in the case of misstatement resulting from fraud as this may involve sophisticated schemes designed to avoid detection, including deliberate failure to record transactions, collusion or the provision of intentional misrepresentations.
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.

2.Accounting policies
The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out
below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the periods presented, unless otherwise stated.
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention unless otherwise specified within these accounting policies and in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland and the Companies Act 2006.
The preparation of financial statements in compliance with FRS 102 requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise judgement in applying the Company's accounting policies.
The following principal accounting policies have been applied:

2.Accounting policies (continued)
Management figures for the 11 months ended 30 April 2026 showed a loss which has resulted in a significant decrease in the Company's net current assets. March and April 2026 management figures, however, were much improved with ongoing profits projected from June 2026 onwards following a number of operational changes, including:
• Three new appointments in the roles of Finance Director, Operations Director and Installation Manager. • A cost saving programme which commenced in February 2026 and has resulted in a significant reduction in operating costs which will provide an enduring benefit to the business going forward. • Restructuring of project management and delivery and bringing previously outsourced and externally managed operations back in-house. In terms of liquidity: • On 29 May 2026, Close Brothers Limited approved additional finance for a period of 36 months in the form of: - An extension to the company’s working capital facility under the government’s Growth Guarantee Scheme, resulting in c.£250k of additional cash availability. - An additional cashflow loan of £100,000. • Loans of c.£410k from the ultimate parent company, Pearce Global Holdings Limited, with a further c.£100k to follow in early June 2026. While the directors consider that the forecasts and factors above support the preparation of the financial statements on a going concern basis, in accordance with UK auditing and accounting standards, the events and conditions described above are such that a material uncertainty exists which may cast significant doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Notwithstanding these factors, profit and cash flow forecasts have been prepared for the two years to 31 May 2028, based on prudent and realistic sales forecasts and the reduced cost base. These forecasts show the business sustaining its profitable position and having sufficient cash to discharge its debts and liabilities as they fall due. On these bases, the directors have confidence in the company’s ability to continue as a going concern and have prepared the financial statements on a going concern basis.
Preparation of the financial statements requires management to make significant judgements and estimates. During the preparation of these financial statements there have been no significant or material judgements and estimates that require disclosure other than stage of completion on contracts.

Notes to the financial statements

2.Accounting policies (continued)
Business combinations are accounted for using the purchase method. The consideration for each acquisition is measured at the aggregate of the fair values at acquisition date of assets given, liabilities incurred or assumed, and equity instruments issued by the group in exchange for control of the acquired, plus any costs directly attributable to the business combination. When a business combination agreement provides for an adjustment to the cost of the combination contingent on future events, the group includes the estimated amount of that adjustment in the cost of the combination at the acquisition date if the adjustment is probable and can be measured reliably.
Goodwill
Goodwill represents the difference between amounts paid on the cost of a business combination and the acquirer’s interest in the fair value of its identifiable assets and liabilities of the acquiree at the date of acquisition. Subsequent to initial recognition, goodwill is measured at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses. Goodwill is amortised on a straight-line basis to the Profit and loss account over its useful economic life. Other intangible assets Separately acquired trademarks and licences are shown at historical cost. Trademarks, licenses (including software) and customer-related intangible assets acquired in a business combination are recognised at fair value at the acquisition date. Trademarks, licenses and customer-related intangible assets have a finite useful life and are carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses.
Amortisation is provided on the following bases:

2.Accounting policies (continued)
Depreciation is charged so as to allocate the cost of assets less their residual value over their estimated useful lives, using the straight-line method.
Depreciation is provided on the following basis:
The assets' residual values, useful lives and depreciation methods are reviewed, and adjusted prospectively if appropriate, or if there is an indication of a significant change since the last reporting date.
Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing the proceeds with the carrying amount and are recognised in profit or loss.
reliably are measured at cost less impairment. Interest income on debt securities, where applicable, is recognised in income using the effective interest method. Dividends on equity securities are recognised in income when receivable.

Notes to the financial statements
For the year ended 31 May 2025
2.Accounting policies (continued)
Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Equity instruments are measured at the fair value of the cash or other resources received or receivable, net of the direct costs of issuing the equity instruments. If payment is deferred and the time value of money is material, the initial measurement is on a present value basis.
The Company only enters into basic financial instrument transactions that result in the recognition of
financial assets and liabilities like trade and other debtors and creditors, loans from banks and other third parties, loans to related parties and investments in ordinary shares. Financial assets that are measured at cost and amortised cost are assessed at the end of each reporting period for objective evidence of impairment. If objective evidence of impairment is found, an impairment loss is recognised in the Profit and loss account. Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount reported in the Balance sheet when there is an 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.
Dividend distribution to the company’s shareholders is recognised as a liability in the financial statements in the reporting period in which the dividends are declared.
