Strategic report
For the year ended 31 December 2025
The principal activity of the Company continues to be the manufacture of plastic blow moulded components predominantly for the automotive, medical and construction industries. The Company’s business strategy is to work in partnership with our major customers to ensure we continue to offer high level components, technical support, and manufacturing facilities in line with the needs of the industry and to ensure that our manufacturing processes remain aligned with the market we serve.
Our automotive components are supplied directly to Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) and major system suppliers at both Tier 1 and Tier 2 levels. The year to 31 December 2025 remained challenging, as supply chains continued to stabilise and demand patterns normalised.
The six months to June 2025 represented a strong start to the year. However, in the latter part of the year, our largest customer experienced a significant cyber-attack in late August, which had a direct impact on production schedules and order volumes in the latter half 2025. As a result, we were required to react quickly to reduced demand levels, leading to a temporary decline in sales. While broader supply chain challenges have continued to ease, the impact of this disruption is expected to result in a steady first quarter, with production and volumes anticipated to recover and accelerate through the remainder of 2026. Despite these headwinds, global demand for our largest customer’s vehicles has remained resilient. Looking ahead to 2026, customers continue to request that suppliers prepare for increased volumes, particularly on higher-value models. The Company remains committed to minimising its environmental impact and is actively pursuing initiatives to reduce carbon consumption, including energy reduction projects and the implementation of energy tracking systems. In addition, the business is investing in the upgrade of its Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system to strengthen production planning, improve stock control and enhance management reporting, ensuring greater efficiency and responsiveness to customer needs.
The challenges we face as we move through the coming year will primarily centre on the pace of UK economic recovery and the return of consumer confidence in purchasing new vehicles. Our largest customer remains optimistic regarding vehicle sales in the year ahead; however, this outlook is tempered by an increasingly uncertain global economic and geopolitical environment.
Key risks include ongoing geopolitical tensions, particularly the conflicts in Ukraine and the Middle East, which continue to create volatility across global supply chains, energy markets, and raw material availability. In addition, the introduction and potential escalation of tariffs under the Trump administration present a further risk to global trade flows, with the potential to impact both direct and indirect cost structures across the automotive supply chain. Other risks include fluctuations in energy and logistics costs. While both remain elevated compared to pre-crisis levels, energy prices are expected to gradually ease as markets stabilise and the UK continues its transition towards renewable energy sources. Polymer pricing also remains volatile, influenced by wider economic conditions and closely linked to global oil prices, which directly affect the Company’s cost base. Within the automotive sector, the transition towards electric vehicle (EV) programmes continues to introduce uncertainty into demand forecasting and production planning, as OEMs refine model strategies and supply chains adapt to evolving technologies. The Company continues to monitor these developments closely and remains focused on maintaining operational flexibility in response to changing market conditions. Despite these challenges, the Company operates within a niche product range and has been reasonably successful in passing through cost variances to customers. A similar level of success is anticipated in the coming year.

Strategic report (continued)
For the year ended 31 December 2025
The company uses several key performance indicators to track business performance, which can be referenced in full within the attached financial statements. The main KPI drivers will show that turnover including tooling for the year was £9.8m (down 21% on prior year), however gross profit for the year, following the successful implementation of a variety of efficiency programmes, improved to 21% (prior year 14%). The corresponding profit before tax was stable at £186k.
The Company experienced a reduction in turnover during 2025; however, through the successful delivery of several efficiency programmes, it was able to offset rising costs and workflow instability, achieving a positive profit before tax for the year. The Company continues to maintain a strong balance sheet, with a year-end capital and reserves value of £4m.
This report was approved by the board and signed on its behalf.

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 Bolton Plastic Components Limited
We have audited the financial statements of Bolton Plastic Components Limited (the 'Company') for the year ended 31 December 2025, which comprise the Statement of comprehensive income, the Balance sheet, 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).
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 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.
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.

BOLTON PLASTIC COMPONENTS LIMITED
Independent auditors' report to the members of Bolton Plastic Components 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:
Based on our understanding of the company and industry, we identify the key laws and regulations affecting the company. We identified that the principal risk of fraud or non-compliance with laws and regulations related to: • management bias in respect of accounting estimates and judgements made; • management override of control; • posting of unusual journals or transactions. We focussed on those areas that could give rise to a material misstatement in the Company's financial statements. Our procedures included, but were not limited to: • enquiry of management and those charged with governance around actual and potential litigation and claims, including instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations and fraud; • reviewing legal expenditure in the year to identtify instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations and fraud; • reviewing financial statement disclosures and testing to supporting documentation to assess compliance with applicable laws and regulations;
•performing audit work over the risk of management override of controls, including testing of journal entries and other adjustments for appropriateness, evaluating the business rationale for significant transactions
outside the normal course of business and reviewing accounting estimates for bias.
It is the primary responsibility of management, with the oversight of those charged with governance, to ensure that the entity's operations are conducted in accordance with the provisions of laws and regulations and for the prevention and detection of fraud.
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.
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.

Notes to the financial statements
For the year ended 31 December 2025
Bolton Plastic Components Limited is a private company limited by shares incorporated in England and Wales, United Kingdom. The registered office address is Environment House, 1 St Marks Street, Nottingham, NG3 1DE and the company registration number is 01770442.
2.Accounting policies
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 judgment in applying the Company's accounting policies (see note 3). The financial statements are prepared in sterling which is the functional currency of the Company and are rounded to the nearest £1. The following principal accounting policies have been applied:
The Company has taken advantage of the following disclosure exemptions in preparing these financial statements, as permitted by the FRS 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland":
∙the requirements of Section 7 Statement of Cash Flows;
∙the requirements of Section 3 Financial Statement Presentation paragraph 3.17(d);
∙the requirements of Section 33 Related Party Disclosures paragraph 33.7.
This information is included in the consolidated financial statements of Blugilt Holdings Limited as at 31 December 2025 and these financial statements may be obtained from Companies House, Crown Way, Cardiff, CF14 3UZ..
The directors consider that there are no material uncertainties that may cast significant doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Accordingly the financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis. On the basis of the cash position of the Company as at the date of approval of the financial statements, the forecasted cashflows and financial performance for the Company, the directors believe that the Company will have sufficient cash reserves and available facilities in order to meet its debts as and when they fall due for the foreseeable furutre and therefore the going concern basis of accounting has been applied to these financial statements.
