Strategic report
For the year ended 31 December 2025

Introduction
 
Valiantys Limited continued during the year ended 31 December 2025 to operate as an IT consultancy specialising in Atlassian software solutions.

Following the loss reported in 2024, management’s priority in 2025 was the stabilisation of operations, improvement of gross margin performance and reinforcement of financial discipline across the business.

Business review
 
Turnover increased to £23,106,297 (2024: £21,980,231).

The growth in revenue was driven primarily by an expansion in services activity, with services revenue increasing to £5,667,621 (2024: £4,659,990), while licence revenue remained stable at £17,438,676 (2024: £17,320,241).

The increase in services revenue reflects improved commercial execution and stronger delivery capacity compared to the prior year. In 2024, services contribution had declined significantly; during 2025, management focused on improving engagement quality, pricing discipline and delivery efficiency, resulting in stronger revenue conversion.

Licence revenue continued to represent the majority of turnover and provided a stable recurring base. The company remains closely aligned to the Atlassian ecosystem, which continues to be a core component of its business model.

From a geographical perspective, the United Kingdom remains the principal market, representing the majority of turnover, with additional contributions from Europe and other international territories.

During the year, the company also placed emphasis on working capital management. Trade debtors reduced materially compared to 2024, contributing positively to cash generation.

Overall, the year reflects a return to controlled growth following the contraction experienced in the prior period.

Principal risks and uncertainties
 
The company operates in a competitive and evolving technology services market. The principal risks and uncertainties include:
 
Dependence on the Atlassian software ecosystem
Margin pressure within professional services
Retention and recruitment of skilled personnel
Exposure to foreign exchange fluctuations
Changes in regulatory and tax frameworks

The directors actively monitor these risks through regular financial review, commercial oversight and operational governance processes

Strategic report (continued)
For the year ended 31 December 2025

Financial performance
 
The company reported a significant improvement in gross profitability during the year. Gross profit increased to £5,079,195 (2024: £1,597,770), with gross margin improving from 7.3% in 2024 to approximately 22% in 2025.

This improvement reflects a combination of higher services contribution and a reduction in cost of sales relative to turnover. The prior year’s margin had been materially impacted by lower productivity and cost structure misalignment; corrective measures implemented during 2025 contributed to a normalisation of margin levels.

Administrative expenses increased to £5,084,139 (2024: £3,917,084). The increase reflects continued investment in operational infrastructure and support functions necessary to sustain revenue growth and improve internal processes. While overhead increased, the improved gross margin allowed the business to absorb these costs.

As a result, the company returned to operating profitability, generating an operating profit of £84,450 (2024: operating loss £512,419).

Profit before taxation amounted to £76,192 (2024: loss £464,720), and the company recorded a profit after tax of £76,442 (2024: loss £465,417).

No dividends were declared or paid during the year (2024: £1,000,000), allowing retained earnings to increase to £381,447 at 31 December 2025 (2024: £305,005).

Cash at bank and in hand increased significantly to £2,654,065 (2024: £1,209,198). The improvement in liquidity was primarily driven by improved operating performance and strong working capital management.

Net assets increased to £382,447 (2024: £306,005), reflecting the return to profitability

Operational highlights
 
During the year, the company:

Strengthened financial controls and reporting discipline
Improved cost structure alignment with revenue levels
Reduced trade receivable exposure
Stabilised headcount following prior restructuring
Rinforced focus on profitable engagements

The return to profitability in 2025 reflects the impact of these operational measures.

Strategic report (continued)
For the year ended 31 December 2025

Future outlook
 
The directors expect 2026 to remain subject to competitive market conditions and evolving commercial dynamics within the Atlassian partner ecosystem.

Changes in partner programme conditions may influence licence margin dynamics in the forthcoming period.

In response, the company has initiated operational efficiency measures designed to improve cost alignment and support profitability resilience.

The directors intend to continue focusing on:

Maintaining disciplined cost control
Enhancing service delivery efficiency
Preserving liquidity and financial stability
Broadening service capabilities where appropriate

While uncertainty remains within the broader economic and sector environment, management will continue to monitor performance closely and adapt operational measures as required.

Independent auditor's report to the members of Valiantys Limited
For the year ended 31 December 2025

Opinion


In our opinion the financial statements of Valiantys Limited (the 'company'):

give a true and fair view of the state of the company's affairs as at 31 December 2025 and of its profit for the year then ended;
have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland";and
have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006.

We have audited the financial statements which comprise:

the statement of comprehensive income;
the statement of financial position;
the statement of changes in equity;
the statement of cash flow;
the statement of accounting policies and
the related notes 1 to 26 including the statement in 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).


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 Auditor's 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 United Kingdom, including the Financial Reporting Council'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 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.

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.

We have nothing to report in this regard.


Responsibilities of directors
 

As explained more fully in the directors’ responsibilities statement, 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 is 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 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 company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.


Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements
 

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.


We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:


adequate accounting records have not been kept, or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or
the 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.


Extent to which the audit was considered capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud
 

As explained more fully in the Directors' responsibilities statement set out on page 4, 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 is 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 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 company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Independent auditor's report to the members of Valiantys Limited (continued)
For the year ended 31 December 2025

Report on other legal and regulatory requirements
 
Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006
 

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 Auditor's 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:
We considered the nature of the company's industry and its control environment, and reviewed the company's
documentation of their policies and procedures relating to fraud and compliance with laws and regulations. We also enquired of management and the directors about their own identification and assessment of the risks of irregularities, including those that are specific to the company's business sector.

We obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory framework that the company operates in, and identified the key laws and regulations that:

had a direct effect on the determination of material amounts and disclosures in the Financial Statements. These included the UK Companies Act and tax legislation; and
do not have a direct effect on the Financial Statements but compliance with which may be fundamental to the company's ability to operate or to avoid a material penalty.

We discussed among the audit engagement team regarding the opportunities and incentives that may exist within the organisation for fraud and how and where fraud might occur in the financial statements.

In common with all audits under ISAs (UK), we are also required to perform specific procedures to respond to the risk of management override. In addressing the risk of fraud through management override of controls, we tested the appropriateness of journal entries and other adjustments; assessed whether the judgements made in making accounting estimates are indicative of a potential bias; and evaluated the business rationale of any significant transactions that are unusual or outside the normal course of business. In addition to the above, our procedures to respond to the risks identified included the following:

reviewing financial statement disclosures by testing to supporting documentation to assess compliance with provisions of relevant laws and regulations described as having a direct effect on the financial statements;
performing analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected relationships that may indicate risks of material misstatement due to fraud;
enquiring of management legal counsel concerning actual and potential litigation and claims, and instances of noncompliance with laws and regulations; and
reading minutes of meetings of those charged with governance


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 Auditor's report.

Notes to the financial statements
For the year ended 31 December 2025

1.


General information

Valiantys Limited is a private company limited by shares and incorporated in England and Wales. Its registered office and principal place of business is 20 St. Thomas Street, London, SE1 9RS and its registered number is 08211416. The company's principal activity during the year continued to be that of IT consultants.

2.Accounting policies

 
2.1

Basis of preparation of financial statements

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 Republic of Ireland ('FRS 102') 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 judgement in applying the company's accounting policies (see note 3).

The following principal accounting policies have been applied:

 
2.2

Turnover

Turnover is recognised to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the company and the turnover can be reliably measured. Turnover is measured as the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, excluding discounts, rebates, value added tax and other sales taxes. The following criteria must also be met before turnover is recognised:

Sale of licenses

Turnover from the sale of goods is recognised when all of the following conditions are satisfied:
the company has transferred the significant risks and rewards of ownership to the buyer;
the company retains neither continuing managerial involvement to the degree usually associated with ownership nor effective control over the goods sold;
the amount of turnover can be measured reliably;
it is probable that the company will receive the consideration due under the transaction; and
the costs incurred or to be incurred in respect of the transaction can be measured reliably.

Rendering of services

Turnover from a contract to provide services is recognised in the period in which the services are provided in accordance with the stage of completion of the contract when all of the following conditions are satisfied:
the amount of turnover can be measured reliably;
it is probable that the company will receive the consideration due under the contract;
the stage of completion of the contract at the end of the reporting period can be measured reliably; and
the costs incurred and the costs to complete the contract can be measured reliably.

Notes to the financial statements
For the year ended 31 December 2025

2.Accounting policies (continued)

 
2.3

Tangible fixed assets

Tangible fixed assets under the cost model are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management.

Depreciation is charged so as to allocate the cost of assets less their residual value over their estimated useful lives, using the straight-line method.

Depreciation is provided on the following basis:

Plant and machinery
-
33%
Furniture, fixtures and fittings
-
33%
Office refurbishment
-
Cost spread evenly over remaining lease term

The assets' residual values, useful lives and depreciation methods are reviewed, and adjusted prospectively if appropriate, or if there is an indication of a significant change since the last reporting date.

Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing the proceeds with the carrying amount and are recognised in profit or loss.

 
2.4

Debtors

Short-term debtors are measured at transaction price, less any impairment. Loans receivable are measured initially at fair value, net of transaction costs, and are measured subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment.

 
2.5

Cash

Cash is represented by cash in hand and deposits with financial institutions repayable without penalty on notice of not more than 24 hours.

In the Statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents are shown net of bank overdrafts that are repayable on demand and form an integral part of the company's cash management.

 
2.6

Financial instruments

The majority of transactions the company enters into are basic financial instruments transactions that result in the recognition of financial assets and liabilities like trade and other debtors and creditors, other third parties and loans to related parties.

Derivatives, including interest rate swaps and forward foreign exchange contracts, are not basic financial instruments. Derivatives are initially recognised at fair value on the date a derivative contract is entered into and are subsequently re-measured at their fair value. Changes in the fair value of derivatives are recognised in profit or loss in finance costs or income as appropriate. The company does not currently apply hedge accounting for interest rate and foreign exchange derivatives.

 
2.7

Creditors

Short-term creditors are measured at the transaction price. Other financial liabilities are measured initially at fair value, net of transaction costs, and are measured subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

2.Accounting policies (continued)

 
2.8

Foreign currency translation

Functional and presentation currency

The company's functional and presentational currency is GBP.

Transactions and balances

Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the spot exchange rates at the dates of the transactions.

At each period end foreign currency monetary items are translated using the closing rate. Non-monetary items measured at historical cost are translated using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction and non-monetary items measured at fair value are measured using the exchange rate when fair value was determined.

Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of transactions and from the translation at period-end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognised in profit or loss except when deferred in other comprehensive income as qualifying cash flow hedges.

Foreign exchange gains and losses that relate to borrowings and cash and cash equivalents are presented in the Statement of comprehensive income within 'finance income or costs'. All other foreign exchange gains and losses are presented in profit or loss within 'other operating income'.

 
2.9

Finance costs

Finance costs are charged to profit or loss over the term of the debt using the effective interest method so that the amount charged is at a constant rate on the carrying amount. Issue costs are initially recognised as a reduction in the proceeds of the associated capital instrument.

 
2.10

Dividends

Equity dividends are recognised when they become legally payable. Interim equity dividends are recognised when paid. Final equity dividends are recognised when approved by the shareholders at an annual general meeting.

 
2.11

Operating leases: the company as lessee

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

Benefits received and receivable as an incentive to sign an operating lease are recognised on a straight-line basis over the lease term, unless another systematic basis is representative of the time pattern of the lessee's benefit from the use of the leased asset.

Notes to the financial statements
For the year ended 31 December 2025

2.Accounting policies (continued)

 
2.12

Pensions

Defined contribution pension plan

The company operates a defined contribution plan for its employees. A defined contribution plan is a pension plan under which the company pays fixed contributions into a separate entity. Once the contributions have been paid the company has no further payment obligations.

The contributions are recognised as an expense in profit or loss when they fall due. Amounts not paid are shown in accruals as a liability in the Statement of financial position. The assets of the plan are held separately from the company in independently administered funds.

 
2.13

Interest income

Interest income is recognised in profit or loss using the effective interest method.

 
2.14

Current and deferred taxation

The tax expense for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in profit or loss except that a charge attributable to an item of income and expense recognised as other comprehensive income or to an item recognised directly in equity is also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity respectively.

The current income tax charge is calculated on the basis of tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date in the countries where the company operates and generates income.

Deferred tax balances are recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed by the reporting date, except that:
The recognition of deferred tax assets is limited to the extent that it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits; and
Any deferred tax balances are reversed if and when all conditions for retaining associated tax allowances have been met.

Deferred tax balances are not recognised in respect of permanent differences except in respect of business combinations, when deferred tax is recognised on the differences between the fair values of assets acquired and the future tax deductions available for them and the differences between the fair values of liabilities acquired and the amount that will be assessed for tax. Deferred tax is determined using tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date.


 
2.15

Provisions for liabilities

Provisions are recognised when an event has taken place that gives rise to a legal or constructive obligation, a transfer of economic benefits is probable and a reliable estimate can be made.

Provisions are measured as the best estimate of the amount required to settle the obligation, taking into account the related risks and uncertainties.
 
Increases in provisions are generally charged as an expense to profit or loss.

Judgements in applying accounting policies and key sources of estimation uncertainty

The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and
assumptions that affect the amounts reported for assets and liabilities as at the year end date and the amounts reported for revenues and expenses during the year. However, the nature of estimation means that actual outcomes could differ from those estimates.

Factors that may affect future tax charges

Deferred taxes recognised at the reporting date have been measured at the rate expected to be applied, under UK tapered rates of corporation tax, when each respective deferred tax crystallises.

As of 31 December 2025 there are tax losses carried forward of £11,737,837 (2024: £11,817,000) available to carry forward and offset against future taxable profits.  No deferred tax asset has been recognized in respect of these tax losses due to lack of evidence that it is probable they will be recovered against future taxable profits.
