GROUP STRATEGIC REPORT
FOR THE PERIOD 31 JULY 2024 TO 30 NOVEMBER 2025


The directors present their strategic report of the company and the group for the period 31 July 2024 to 30 November 2025.

REVIEW OF BUSINESS
We aim to present a balanced and comprehensive review of the development and performance of the group during the year and its position at the year end. Our review is consistent with the size and nature of the group.

The performance of the group was impacted by the economic uncertainty of the sector and the majority of the clients within the speculate housing market who adopted a cautious approach to ongoing production in line with significant reduction in sales, and delays in starting new sites. The affordable housing sector stalled on commencement of sites in quarter one as a result of funding and planning issues.

We consider that in spite of the above, our key financial performance indicators are those that communicate the financial performance and strength of the business as a whole, these being turnover and operating margin. In the current financial period the turnover achieved was £92.5m and gross margin of 16.0%. Net assets of the group were £1.7m.

Plant and vehicle additions in the period total £8.3m which was a requirement of the group to sustain current performance levels, and the group renewal of plant policies..

We are still focused on cost control, improved production levels and more sophisticated accountants software and modelling, are confident that this focus during our continued growth will be evident in improved performance.In line with the re-structure within our business and the movement into active affordable and presold sector of the housing market, to maximise the impact of the slow down in private housing.

PRINCIPAL RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES
We continue to monitor the principal risks and uncertainties to which the group and the wider industry are subject which are listed as follows:
- Unforeseen events or circumstances while carrying out work which may cause losses.
- Risk of bad debts.
- Slow down or recession in the local or national economy and general cut back in government funding which may lead to a significant reduction in the company's income.
- Any dramatic rise in interest rates due to the volatile economy.
- Chain supply issues affecting deliveries and significant product price increases occurring in the financial year.
- Monitor impact of fuel price increase by the government effective from April 2022, to remove the entitlement to discounted red diesel and rebated biofuels monitor on site based costs as well as general transportation costs increase, which are still impacting the industry as a whole.
-The impact of the ongoing Russian/Ukraine war

We are committed to developing existing relationships along with more client diversity in delivery of social and affordable housing will produce more of the growth opportunities the business requires and hence continued financial performance of the group. Our tendering opportunities remain at levels above previous years, whilst competition is impacting on margins.

GROUP STRATEGIC REPORT
FOR THE PERIOD 31 JULY 2024 TO 30 NOVEMBER 2025

SECTION 172(1) STATEMENT
The directors have acted in a way they consider, in good faith, promotes the success of the group for the benefit of it's members, and in doing so have given regard to:

Consequence of any decisions in the long term

The directors understand the business and the evolving market it operates in. The focus in making decisions is to strengthen the group's standing in the market, whilst maximising returns and providing positive outcomes.
As part of our long-term strategy the business is investing in individuals and new technology to improve quality and efficiency moving forward. Our investment in intelligent machine control and innovation is part of this work which will develop our core management team whilst meeting our commitment to reduce the company's carbon footprint.

Business relationships with suppliers, customers and others

The directors understand the need to build strong and mutually beneficial relationships with its suppliers, customers and others to ensure the future success of the business. The group's policy is to agree payment terms in advance in line with normal trade practices and apply fair and reasonable principles within those relationships. Part of those principles is a commitment to providing our customers with quality assured products, efficiently delivered and developing a relationship of trust and transparency on a one to one basis with customers and suppliers.

Our employees

The group recognises that employees are fundamental and core to our business and delivery of our wider long-term plans. To ensure the continued success of the business we ensure we remain a responsible employer in terms of pay, benefits, continued training, health & safety and the workplace environment. We align ourselves on the continued development of our employees and strive to promote from within the business, providing support via our career pathways to support individuals as they progress and develop their careers.

Acting fairly to all stakeholders

The long-term success of the business is dependant on having the right corporate culture and making decisions which achieve our goals but which are in the best interest of all stakeholders, including shareholders, customers, employees, suppliers and others. After weighing up all these factors, the directors consider the course of action which best enables delivery whilst taking in to consideration the impact on stakeholders.

STATEMENT OF DIRECTORS' RESPONSIBILITIES
The directors are responsible for preparing the Group Strategic Report, the Report of the Directors 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 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 the group and of the profit or loss of the group for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the directors are required to:

- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
- make judgements and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
- state whether applicable 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 and the group's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the company and the group 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 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 directors are 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 each director has taken all the steps that he or she ought to have taken as a director in order to make himself or herself aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the group's auditors are aware of that information.

The auditors, Prime, will be proposed for re-appointment at the forthcoming Annual General Meeting.

ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD:





M F P Regan - Director


11 June 2026

REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF
ACASTUS LIMITED


Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of Acastus Limited (the 'parent company') and its subsidiaries (the 'group') for the period ended 30 November 2025 which comprise the Consolidated Income Statement, Consolidated Other 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 30 November 2025 and of the group's profit for the period 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 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 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 directors with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.

Other information
The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information in the Group Strategic Report and the Report of the Directors, but does not include the financial statements and our Report of the Auditors 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.

REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF
ACASTUS LIMITED


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 Directors 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 Directors have been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.

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 Directors.

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 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 Statement of Directors' Responsibilities set out on page five, 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 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 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 directors either intend to liquidate the group or the parent company or to cease operations, or have 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 a Report of the Auditors 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 engagement partner ensured that the engagement 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 of the industry sector;
- 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, employment, environmental 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;

REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF
ACASTUS LIMITED


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 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;
- enquiring of management as to actual and potential litigation and claims; and
- reviewing correspondence with HMRC and other relevant parties.

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.

Material misstatements that arise due to fraud can be harder to detect than those that arise from error as they may involve deliberate concealment or collusion.

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 Report of the Auditors.

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 a Report of the Auditors 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.

1. STATUTORY INFORMATION

Acastus Limited is a private company, limited by shares , registered in England and Wales. The company's registered number and registered office address can be found on the General Information page.

The presentation currency of the financial statements is the Pound Sterling (£).


2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparing the financial statements
These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102 (FRS 102) "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland", issued by the Financial Reporting Council and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, modified by the revaluation of certain assets and to include certain items at fair value, where required by FRS 102.

Acastus Limited meets the definition of a qualifying entity under FRS 102 and has therefore taken exemption of the disclosure exemptions available to it in respect of its separate financial statements, which are presented alongside the consolidated financial statements. Exemptions have been taken in relation to financial instruments, presentation of a cashflow statement and remuneration of key personnel.

Basis of consolidation
The group financial statements consolidate the financial statements of the company and its subsidiary undertakings drawn up to 30 November each year. The results of subsidiaries acquired or sold are consolidated for the periods from or to the date on which control passed.

Business combinations are accounted for under the purchase method. Where necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to bring the accounting policies used in line with those used by the group. All inter-group transactions, balances, income and expenses are eliminated on consolidation.

Under S408 of the Companies Act 2006 the company is exempt from the requirement to present its own profit and loss account. Its profit or loss for the period is shown on page 13 of the financial statements.

Related party exemption
The company has taken advantage of exemption, under the terms of Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland', not to disclose related party transactions with wholly owned subsidiaries within the group.

Transactions between group entities which have been eliminated on consolidation are not disclosed within the financial statements.

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

Significant judgements and estimates
When preparing the financial statements, management is required to make estimates which affect income, expenses, assets and liabilities. Use of available information and application of judgement are inherent in the formation of estimates, together with past experience and expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results in the future could differ from such estimates.

The key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the Statement of Financial Position date that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment are as follows:

(a) Turnover and profit recognition
The estimation techniques used for revenue and profit recognition in respect of contracts require forecasts to be made of the outcome of long term contracts which require assessments and judgements to be made on the recovery of pre contract costs, changes in the scope of work, contract programmes, maintenance and defects liabilities and changes in costs.

(b) Recoverable value of recognised receivables
The recoverability of trade and other receivables is regularly reviewed in the light of available economic information specific to each receivable and provisions are recognised for balances considered to be irrecoverable.

(c) Provisions
Provisions against projects are liabilities of uncertain timing or amount and therefore in making a reliable estimate judgement is applied and re evaluated at each reporting date.

Turnover
Turnover represents invoiced work, excluding value added tax, on construction projects. Revenue is recognised throughout each construction project on the basis of valuations made by surveyors.

This includes retentions on completed work. Retentions not received are included in trade debtors. Those retentions which are judged irrecoverable are provided against or written off as bad debts.

Goodwill
Goodwill, being the amount paid in connection with the acquisition of a business in 2024, is being amortised evenly over its estimated useful life of ten years.

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
Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life or, if held under a finance lease, over the lease term, whichever is the shorter.
Plant and machinery - 15% on reducing balance and 15% on cost
Fixtures and fittings - 15% on reducing balance
Motor vehicles - 25% on reducing balance

Stocks
Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value, after making due allowance for obsolete and slow moving items.

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

Financial instruments
(i) Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents are basic financial instruments and include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts.

(ii) Financial assets and liabilities

All financial assets and liabilities are recognised when the group becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

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 group after deducting all its liabilities.

All financial assets and liabilities are initially measured at transaction price (including transaction costs), except for those financial assets classified as at fair value through profit and loss, which are initially measured at fair value unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction. If an arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, the financial asset or liability is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar debt instrument.

Financial assets and liabilities are only offset at the balance sheet date when, and only when there exists a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and the group intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

Debt instruments that have no stated interest rate and are classified as payable or receivable within one year are initially measured at an undiscounted amount of the cash or other consideration expected to be paid or received, net of impairment. Other debt instruments not meeting these conditions are measure at fair value through profit and loss.

Commitments to make or receive loans which meet the conditions mentioned above are measure at cost less impairment.

Financial asset are derecognised when and only when the contractual rights to the cash flows for the financial asset expire or are settled, when the company transfers to another party substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset, or the group, despite having retained some, but not all, significant risks and rewards of ownership, has transferred control of the asset to another party.

Financial liabilities are derecognised only when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged, cancelled or expires.

(iii) Investments

In the balance sheet, investments in subsidiaries are measured at cost less impairment.

(iv) Equity instruments

Equity instruments issued by the group are recorded at the fair value of cash or other resources received or receivable, net of direct issue costs.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - continued
FOR THE PERIOD 31 JULY 2024 TO 30 NOVEMBER 2025


2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

(v) Fair value measurement

The best evidence of fair value is a quoted price for an identical asset on an active market. When quoted prices are unavailable, the price of a recent transaction for an identical asset provides evidence of fair value as long as there has not been a significant changes in economic circumstances or a significant lapse of time since the transaction took place. If the market is not active and recent transactions of an identical asset on their own are not a good estimate of fair value, the fair value is estimated using a valuation technique.

Taxation
Taxation for the period comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the Consolidated Income Statement, 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 period 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.

Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to profit or loss on a straight line basis over the period of the lease.

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.

3. TURNOVER

All turnover relates to the principal activity of the company in the year, and was entirely derived in the UK.
