1.	STATUTORY INFORMATION

Alex Eagle Store 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 Company Information page.

2.	ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparing the financial statements

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland" including the provisions of Section 1A "Small Entities" and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.

During the year ending 28 February 2025 there was a loss of £145,712 and net liabilities of £1,980,865.

The accounts are prepared on a going concern basis due to the reliance on the directors together with The Vinyl Factory, the parent company of the group and the group itself to continue to support the Company.

The directors of The Vinyl Factory consider that there are sufficient assets to easily cover any potential liabilities to ensure there is no difficulty in providing sufficient support to the Company.

There are ongoing negotiations regarding the Group's funding structure with the bond holders which as at the date of approval of the financial statements is proceeding in a positive manner which will solidify the ability of the parent company to continue its support.

There are also ongoing negotiations regarding the settlement of contractual obligations to the benefit of the parent company. This relates to property development work undertaken which is coming to its conclusion. The directors are satisfied this will be a significant amount which would ensure that the parent company can continue its support of the company.

Having regard to the information above, the directors are therefore satisfied that the accounts should be prepared on a going concern basis.

11.	DISCLOSURE UNDER SECTION 444(5B) OF THE COMPANIES ACT 2006

The Report of the Auditors was qualified on the following basis:

Basis for qualified 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 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. Due to a limitation of scope we have been unable to audit the opening stock figure of £319,922 and the closing stock figure of £320,869 included in these financial statements.

Paul Colcomb FCCA (Senior Statutory Auditor)

for and on behalf of Wright Vigar Limited

We draw attention to note 2 in the financial statements, which indicates that there was a loss of £145,712 for the year ended 28 February 2025 and net liabilities of £1,980,865.

As stated in note 2, there are ongoing discussions regarding contractual settlements and the Group's funding structure. Whilst there are contractual documentation and correspondence to support a positive inflow of monies, we have been unable to quantify the valuation or the time frame of the economic inflow into the parent company. These events or conditions indicate that a possible material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the company's ability to continue as a going concern. However the directors continue to express confidence in the support of the parent company and the financial position as a whole. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.

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.

Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the director with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.
