The Group recognises its corporate responsibility to carry out its operations whilst minimising environmentalĀ
impacts. The directorsā continued aim is to comply with all applicable environmental legislation, prevent pollution and reduce waste wherever possible.
Health and safety
The Group is committed to achieving the highest practicable standards in health and safety management and strives to make all sites and offices safe environments for employees and customers alike.

In the event of members of staff becoming disabled every effort is made to ensure that their employment with the Group continues and the appropriate training is arranged.

In establishing our tCO2e emissions we have excluded the Groupās sources of renewable energy.
The methodology used to generate the information below has been derived from the UK Government GHG conversion factors for company reporting and applied the conversion factors outlined to supplier statements covering the groups consumption of Gas (Scope 1), Kerosene (Scope 1), Wood Pellets (Scope 1) and Electricity (Scope 2).

One of the subsidiary companies has purchased electricity on a renewable energy for business tariff. All the electricity consumed at this site comes from renewable sources such as solar and wind power. These energy sources do not produce carbon emissions.Ā
The group note that energy intensity ratio measuring the kwh of energy consumed per Ā£1,000 of group revenue generated, has increased slightly from 15.07 kwh to 15.93 kwh, reflecting the amount of energy consumed per unit of economic output.

Independent Auditors' Report to the Members of John Hogg & Co, Limited
Ā
WeĀ have audited theĀ financial statementsĀ ofĀ John Hogg & Co, Limited (the 'Parent Company') and its subsidiaries (the 'Group')Ā for theĀ yearĀ endedĀ 30 September 2025, which compriseĀ the Consolidated Profit and Loss Account, the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income, the Consolidated Analysis of Net Debt, the Consolidated Balance Sheet, the Company Balance Sheet, the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows, the Consolidated Statement of Changes in Equity, the Company Statement of Changes in EquityĀ and the related notes, including a summary of significant accounting policies.Ā The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable lawĀ and United Kingdom Accounting Standards,Ā including Financial Reporting Standard 102 āThe Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
In auditing the financial statements,Ā weĀ have concluded that theĀ directors'Ā use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.
Based on the workĀ weĀ have performed,Ā weĀ have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on theĀ Group's or the Parent Company'sĀ ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.
OurĀ responsibilities and the responsibilities of theĀ directorsĀ with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.

Independent Auditors' Report to the Members of John Hogg & Co, Limited (continued)
The other information comprises the information included in theĀ Annual ReportĀ other than the financial statements andĀ ourĀ Auditors' ReportĀ thereon. TheĀ directorsĀ areĀ responsible for the other information contained within theĀ Annual Report.Ā OurĀ opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report,Ā weĀ do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.Ā OurĀ responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements orĀ ourĀ knowledge obtained in the course of the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. IfĀ weĀ identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements,Ā weĀ areĀ required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the workĀ weĀ have performed,Ā weĀ conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information,Ā weĀ areĀ required to report that fact.
WeĀ have nothing to report in this regard.
Ā
InĀ ourĀ opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:
āthe information given in theĀ Group Strategic Report and the Directors' ReportĀ for the financialĀ yearĀ for which theĀ financial statementsĀ are prepared is consistent with theĀ financial statements; and
ātheĀ Group Strategic Report and the Directors' ReportĀ haveĀ been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.
Ā
In the light of the knowledge and understanding of theĀ Group and the Parent CompanyĀ and its environment obtained in the course of the audit,Ā weĀ have not identified material misstatements in theĀ Group Strategic Report or the Directors' Report.

Ā
Independent Auditors' Report to the Members of John Hogg & Co, Limited (continued)
Ā
Ā
OurĀ objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether theĀ financial statementsĀ as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue anĀ Auditors' ReportĀ that includesĀ ourĀ 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 theseĀ Group financial statements.
Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations.Ā WeĀ design procedures in line withĀ ourĀ responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to whichĀ ourĀ procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below:
We gained an understanding of the legal and regulatory framework applicable to the Group and the Company and the industries in which they operate, and considered the risk of acts by the Group and the Company that were contrary to applicable laws and regulations, including fraud. We considered the opportunities and incentives that may exist within the Group and the Company for fraud and identified the greatest potential for fraud in the following areas: management override of controls and fraud risk relating to revenue.
We designed audit procedures to respond to these risks, recognising that the risk of not detecting a material
misstatement due to fraud is higher than the risk of not detecting one resulting from error, as fraud may involve
deliberate concealment by, for example, forgery or intentional misrepresentations, or through collusion. Our
audit procedures included: enquiries of management about their own identification and assessment of risks of
irregularities, testing the design and implementation of controls relating to the risks, sample testing of journals
posted during the year, revenue cut off testing and undertaking tests of detail over relevant assertions in relation to revenue.
Because of the inherent limitations of an audit, there is a risk thatĀ weĀ will not detect all irregularities, including those leading to a material misstatement in theĀ financial statementsĀ 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 theĀ financial statements, asĀ weĀ 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.
A further description ofĀ ourĀ responsibilities for the audit of theĀ financial statementsĀ is located on the Financial Reporting Council's website at:Ā www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part ofĀ ourĀ Auditors' Report.
