| GROUP STRATEGIC REPORT |
| FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST DECEMBER 2025 |
| The directors present their strategic report of the company and the group for the year ended 31st December 2025. |
| REVIEW OF BUSINESS |
| The group's turnover has increased this year by 1.4%. Direct costs have also increased, but at a higher level than sales of 10.4%. This has resulted in the gross profit margin decreasing from 39.5% last year to 34.1% this year. |
| Profit before tax margin has also decreased this year down to 2.1%, compared to 8.2% in the previous year. |
| Robertson Geologging continues to enjoy success in its markets. Sales increased slightly over 2024, despite a challenging economic environment. 2025 saw the parent company relocate to new premises and consolidate its manufacturing and operations under one roof. This has led to a temporary decrease in our gross profit however it has allowed the business to make internal efficiency gains which will be vital to support future growth strategies and expected market demand. |
| Tariffs had minimal effect on business activity. However, the US Government attempts to stop offshore wind developments affected the global offshore wind market as uncertainty slowed project FID and delayed projects already in their early stages. 2026 should see this market begin to normalise and a refocus on wind projects in Europe. The services division continues to grow its presence in Europe, winning several large projects requiring specialized services, a result of its reputation as a premium services provider. |
| Product sales were healthy and are expected to continue to grow in 2026. A strategy of focusing on growing high value existing markets while seeking new underserviced areas is proving successful. The group continues to invest in its marketing activities and seeking new partners for technical collaboration. |

| GROUP STRATEGIC REPORT |
| FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST DECEMBER 2025 |
| PRINCIPAL RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES |
| The group continues to monitor geopolitical developments that may affect its operations and supply chains. It is therefore exposed to changes in trade policy and regulatory frameworks in certain overseas markets. Recent developments indicate the potential for the introduction or expansion of trade measures that could adversely affect trading conditions. The group continues to keep the external environment under close review and to consider appropriate mitigating actions where necessary. |
| The group's operations expose it to a variety of financial risks including price risk, credit risk, currency risk, and liquidity risk: |
| Price risk |
| The group is exposed to price risk arising from competitive pressures within the markets in which it operates. Downward pressure on pricing, particularly where customers utilise in-house equipment and software solutions, may impact margins. The group seeks to mitigate this risk through product differentiation, ongoing innovation and maintaining strong customer relationships. |
| Credit risk |
| The group's exposure to credit risk is primarily attributable to its trade debtors. The group manages this risk by undertaking credit checks where appropriate, setting and monitoring credit limits given to customers, and reviewing outstanding receivable balances on an ongoing basis, recognising provisions based on expected recoverability where necessary. |
| Currency risk |
| The group is exposed to foreign currency risk on transactions and balances denominated in currencies other than that of its functional currency, Pounds Sterling. The group holds bank and deposit accounts in Sterling, Euro and US Dollar and has foreign currency trade debtors and creditors, principally in USD and Euro. Fluctuations in exchange rates may therefore impact reported earnings and net assets. The group monitors its exposures and seeks to mitigate risk by matching foreign foreign currency receipts and payments and managing the timing of settlements. |
| Liquidity risk |
| Liquidity risk represents the risk that the group will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The group manages this risk by maintaining appropriate levels of cash and cash equivalents, monitoring forecast cash flows, and ensuring access to sufficient funding to meet operational requirements. Cash flow forecasts are prepared and reviewed regularly to identify funding requirements and ensure adequate headroom is maintained. |
| The board will continue to identify, monitor and manage potential risks and uncertainties to the group as they arise. |

| 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; |
| - | 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 ought to have taken as a director in order to make himself aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the group's auditors are aware of that information. |

| REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS |
| FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST DECEMBER 2025 |
| AUDITORS |
| The auditors, M. D. Coxey and Co. Limited, will be proposed for re-appointment at the forthcoming Annual General Meeting. |
| ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD: |
| REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF |
| ROBERTSON GEOLOGGING LIMITED |
| Opinion |
| We have audited the financial statements of Robertson Geologging Limited (the 'parent company') and its subsidiaries (the 'group') for the year ended 31st December 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 31st December 2025 and of the group's profit for the year 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. |
| 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. |
| REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF |
| ROBERTSON GEOLOGGING LIMITED |
| 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 four, 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. |
| REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF |
| ROBERTSON GEOLOGGING LIMITED |
| 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; |
| - we assessed the extent of compliance with the laws and regulations identified above through making enquiries of |
| management and inspecting legal correspondence; and |
| - identified laws and regulations were communicated within the audit team regularly and the team remained alert to |
| instances of non-compliance throughout the audit. |
| 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; |
| 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. |
| REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF |
| ROBERTSON GEOLOGGING LIMITED |
| 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. |

| NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
| FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST DECEMBER 2025 |
| 1. | STATUTORY INFORMATION |
| Robertson Geologging Limited is a |
| The presentation currency of the financial statements is the Pound Sterling (£). |
| 2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
| Basis of preparing the financial statements |
| Financial Reporting Standard 102 - reduced disclosure exemptions |
| The group has taken advantage of the following disclosure exemption in preparing these financial statements, as permitted by FRS 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland": |
| • | the requirement of paragraph 3.17(d). |
| As such, a statement of cash flows has not been prepared for the parent company. |
| Basis of consolidation |
| The consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the parent company and its subsidiary, Robertson Geologging (USA) Inc. The other subsidiary, Robertson Geologging (Asia) Limited, has been excluded as the directors consider its inclusion in the consolidation to not be material for the purpose of giving a true and fair view of the financial statements, as per section 405(2) of the Companies Act 2006. |
| The parent company has applied the exemption granted in section 408 of the Companies Act 2006 and has not included its individual statement of income and retained earnings. |
| The results and financial position of the group entities that have a functional currency different to the group's presentation currency of Pound Sterling are translated in the consolidated financial statements at rates prevailing at the balance sheet date. |
| Turnover |
| Turnover, which excludes value added tax and trade discounts, represents the invoiced value of goods and services supplied. Turnover is recognised upon despatch of goods, or when the risks and rewards transfer to the customer in accordance with agreed trading terms if stock is physically held on site. |
| Logging services income is recognised over the period of time that the service is provided. |
| 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 |

| 2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued |
| Investments in subsidiaries |
| Investments in subsidiary undertakings are recorded at cost plus allowable acquisition costs less any provision in impairment. Impairment reviews are performed by the directors when there has been an indication of potential impairment. |
| Stocks |
| Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost comprises purchase cost on a first-in, first-out basis together with, where appropriate, an allocation of attributable overheads. Net realisable value is based on estimated selling price less further costs expected to be incurred to completion and disposal. |
| Reviews are carried out to identify slow-moving, obsolete and defective stock. Where such items are identified, provision is made to adjust their value to net realisable value. |
| Taxation |
| Taxation for the year 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 year 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. |
| Research and development |
| Pure research expenditure is written off in the year in which it is incurred. Significant costs incurred on the development of specific products are capitalised and amortised over the expected commercial life of the product, typically three years. Research and development undertaken under contract for individual clients is written off against the costs of the project. |
| Foreign currencies |
| Assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rates of exchange ruling at the balance sheet date. Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into Sterling at the rate of exchange ruling at the date of transaction. Exchange differences are taken into account in arriving at the operating result. |
| 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. |
