STRATEGIC REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025
The directors present the strategic report for the year ended 31 December 2025.
The company is engaged in the manufacture and distribution of Clay Pigeon Traps and associated products to global markets. There have been no changes in the company’s activities in the year under review.
The statement of comprehensive income is set out on page 10 and shows turnover for the year of £9,833,807 (2024 - £9,105,688) and a profit after of tax of £779,738 (2024 - loss of £1,932,330). The group continues to offer multiple options and products through our highly talented and dedicated teams who deliver exceptional service and solutions to our customers. Our entities based in the UK, France, Italy and the United States of America provide us with the platform to deliver across the globe with sales to over 40 countries across 6 continents in 2025.
The market for the manufacture and distribution of Clay Pigeon Traps and associated products on a worldwide basis is competitive. The company is a market leader and seeks to manage the risk of losing market share to key competitors by the provision of better quality products with a wider range and market leading price competitiveness.
Sales to Europe are made in euros and to the USA in US dollars. The company also purchases products from around the globe in various currencies. The company is therefore exposed to movements in exchange rates. The directors monitor the net exposure and take steps on pricing and sourcing to reduce the impact of currency movements. The main financial risks arising from the company’s activities are credit risk and exchange rate risk. These are monitored by the board of directors and were not considered to be significant at the balance sheet date. The company’s policy in respect of credit risk, is to require appropriate credit checks on potential customers before sales are made.
Significant increases in labour costs coupled with a continued shortage of skills in the market.
It is the opinion of the management and the Board that the company has a level of resilience which can weather a recession (as supported by the financial modelling of different future states).

DIRECTORS' REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025
The directors present their report and the financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2025.
The directors are responsible for preparing the Strategic report, the Directors' report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations.
In preparing these financial statements, the directors are required to:

∙make judgements and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent;

DIRECTORS' REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025
Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the group if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations. The group is mainly exposed to credit risk from credit sales. It is group policy to assess the credit risk of new customers before entering contracts. Such credit ratings are taken into account by local business practices. Each new customer is analysed individually for creditworthiness before the group's standard payment and delivery terms and conditions are offered.
A monthly review of the trade receivables' ageing analysis is undertaken and customers' credit is reassessed periodically. Existing customers that become "high risk" as a result of the periodic reassessment are placed on a restricted customer list and future credit sales are made only with approval of the local management, otherwise payment in advance is required.
Liquidity risk
The group seeks to manage financial risk by ensuring sufficient liquidity is available to meet foreseeable needs of working capital, finance charges and principal repayments on its debt instruments and to invest cash assets safely and profitably.
Management receives cash flow projections on a monthly basis as well as information regarding cash balances. At the end of the financial year, these projections indicated that the group expected to have sufficient liquid resources to meet its obligations under all reasonably expected circumstances.
Cash flow interest rate risk
The group is exposed to cash flow interest rate risk from borrowings at a variable rate. During the periods under review, the group's borrowings at variable rate were denominated in pounds sterling.
Foreign exchange risk
Foreign exchange risk arises when individual group entities enter into transactions denominated in a currency other than their functional currency. The group's policy is, where possible, to allow group entities to settle liabilities denominated in their functional currency (primarily US dollars or pound sterling) with the cash generated from their own operations in that currency.
The group is predominantly exposed to currency risk on sales made in US dollars.
The company has chosen in accordance with Companies Act 2006, s. 414C(11) to set out in the company's strategic report information required by Large and Medium-sized Companies and Groups (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008, Sch. 7 to be contained in the directors' report. It has done so in respect of matters that the directors consider to be of strategic importance to the company.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF PROMATIC INTERNATIONAL LIMITED
We have audited the financial statements of Promatic International 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.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF PROMATIC INTERNATIONAL 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.

PROMATIC INTERNATIONAL LIMITED
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF PROMATIC INTERNATIONAL 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:
The audit team obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory frameworks that are applicable to the company and determined that the most significant are those that relate to the reporting framework (FRS 102 and the Companies Act 2006), the relevant tax compliance regulations and the UK General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). We understood how the company is complying with these frameworks by making enquiries of management and those responsible for legal and compliance procedures. We also reviewed internal records and correspondence and the results of our testing in other areas to identify any recorded instances of irregularity or non-compliance that might have a material impact on the financial statements. We assessed the susceptibility of the company's financial statements to material misstatement, including how fraud might occur by meeting with key management to understand where they considered there may be susceptibility to fraud. Based on our understanding our procedures involved enquiries of management and those charged with governance, manual journal entry testing, cashbook reviews for large and unusual items and the challenge of significant accounting estimates used in preparing the financial statements.
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.

2.Accounting policies (continued)
At the time of approving the financial statements, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus the directors continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements. The Directors have reviewed and considered relevant information including the annual budget and future cash flows for a period of 12 months from the date of the approval of the financial statements in making their assessment.
The Directors assess the Group as a whole as well as individual statutory entities and have stress tested their cash flow forecasts for risks that could impact trading performance, including a severe downturn in consumer spending. Based on this analysis and supported further by an assessment of mitigating actions available to reduce costs and conserve cash and liquidity, the directors conclude that the company will maintain sufficient cash resources to meet its liabilities as they fall due.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025
2.Accounting policies (continued)
Provisions are measured as the best estimate of the amount required to settle the obligation, taking into account the related risks and uncertainties.
The Company has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 “Basic Financial Instruments” of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments.
Financial instruments are recognised in the Company's Balance sheet when the Company becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the financial statements, when there is a legally 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.
Basic financial assets
Basic financial assets, which include trade and other debtors, cash and bank balances, are initially measured at their transaction price (adjusted for transaction costs except in the initial measurement of financial assets that are subsequently measured at fair value through profit and loss) and are subsequently carried at their amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any provision for impairment, unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest.
Discounting is omitted where the effect of discounting is immaterial. The Company's cash and cash equivalents, trade and most other debtors due with the operating cycle fall into this category of financial instruments.
Other financial assets
Other financial assets, which includes investments in equity instruments which are not classified as subsidiaries, associates or joint ventures, are initially measured at fair value, which is normally the recognised transaction price. Such assets are subsequently measured at fair value with the changes in fair value being recognised in the profit or loss. Where other financial assets are not publicly traded, hence their fair value cannot be measured reliably, they are measured at cost less impairment.

PROMATIC INTERNATIONAL LIMITED
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025
2.Accounting policies (continued)
Impairment of financial assets
At the end of each reporting period financial assets measured at amortised cost are assessed for objective evidence of impairment. If an asset is impaired the impairment loss is the difference between the carrying amount and the present value of the estimated cash flows discounted at the asset’s original effective interest rate. The impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss.
Financial assets are impaired when events, subsequent to their initial recognition, indicate the estimated future cash flows derived from the financial asset(s) have been adversely impacted. The impairment loss will be the difference between the current carrying amount and the present value of the future cash flows at the asset(s) original effective interest rate.
If there is a favourable change in relation to the events surrounding the impairment loss then the impairment can be reviewed for possible reversal. The reversal will not cause the current carrying amount to exceed the original carrying amount had the impairment not been recognised. The impairment reversal is recognised in the profit or loss.
Basic financial liabilities
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 Company after the deduction of all its liabilities.
Basic financial liabilities, which include trade and other creditors, bank loans and other loans are initially measured at their transaction price (adjusting for transaction costs except in the initial measurement of financial liabilities that are subsequently measured at fair value through profit and loss). When this constitutes a financing transaction, whereby the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest, discounting is omitted where the effect of discounting is immaterial.
Debt instruments are subsequently carried at their amortised cost using the effective interest rate method.
Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods and services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. Trade creditors are classified as current liabilities if the payment is due within one year. If not, they represent non-current liabilities. Trade creditors are initially recognised at their transaction price and subsequently are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Discounting is omitted where the effect of discounting is immaterial.

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025
2.Accounting policies (continued)
Other financial instruments
Derivatives, including forward exchange contracts, futures contracts and interest rate swaps, are not classified as basic financial instruments. These are initially recognised at fair value on the date the derivative contract is entered into, with costs being charged to the profit or loss. They are subsequently measured at fair value with changes in the profit or loss.
Debt instruments that do not meet the conditions as set out in FRS 102 paragraph 11.9 are subsequently measured at fair value through the profit or loss. This recognition and measurement would also apply to financial instruments where the performance is evaluated on a fair value basis as with a documented risk management or investment strategy.
Derecognition of financial instruments
Derecognition of financial assets
Financial assets are derecognised when their contractual right to future cash flow expire, or are settled, or when the Company transfers the asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to another party. If significant risks and rewards of ownership are retained after the transfer to another party, then the Company will continue to recognise the value of the portion of the risks and rewards retained.
Derecognition of financial liabilities
Financial liabilities are derecognised when the Company's contractual obligations expire or are discharged or cancelled.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods. Critical Judgements The following judgements (apart from those involving estimates) have had the most significant effect on amounts recognised in the financial statements. Leases Determine whether leases entered into by the company either as a lessor or a lessee are operating or finance leases. These decisions depend on an assessment of whether the risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred from the lessor to the lessee on a lease by lease basis. The total of tangible fixed assets held under hire purchase agreements and the value of hire purchase liabilities is disclosed in the notes to these financial statements.

3.Judgements in applying accounting policies (continued)
Impairment Determine whether there are indicators of impairment of the company's tangible and intangible fixed assets. Factors taken into consideration in reaching such a decision include the economic viability and expected future financial performance of the asset. There are no impairments against tangible and intangible fixed assets at the current or comparative balance sheet date. Key sources of estimation uncertainty The estimates and assumptions which have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets and liabilities are as follows. Intangible fixed assets Intangible assets are amortised over their useful lives taking into account residual values, where appropriate. The expected useful life of the intellectual property rights are reviewed annually taking into account their contribution to the order book and the revenue and profits which the intellectual property rights are providing to the company. Tangible fixed assets Tangible assets are depreciated over their useful lives taking into account residual values, where appropriate. The expected useful life of the assets are reviewed annually taking into account their contribution to the order book and the revenue and profits which the assets are providing to the company. Where appropriate, slow moving stocks are written down to their net realisable value. The assessment of net realisable value takes account of factors such as the availability of outlet channels and the value realised, historically, for similar products at that stage of their life cycle. At the balance sheet date an impairment against stocks of £260,864 (2024 - £284,703) is recognised. Debtors In assessing the provision for doubtful debts, factors taken into account include debtors' age profile, their historical payment performance and available credit data. The value of doubtful debt provisions in these financial statements is £21,675 (2024 - £21,675).
