STRATEGIC REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 OCTOBER 2025

The directors present their strategic report for the year ended 31 October 2025.

REVIEW OF BUSINESS
Turnover for the year decreased by approximately 4%, reflecting softer demand conditions and a continued normalisation of trading levels following prior year volatility. Despite this, overall profitability still increased by 13% from the previous year.This improvement has been driven by a combination of improved gross margins, cost control measures, and a reduction in energy and input cost pressures compared to the prior year.

The prior year was significantly impacted by global economic pressures, including elevated energy costs and wider inflationary pressures linked in part to geopolitical instability. While some of these pressures have eased during the current year, uncertainty remains in relation to energy markets, raw material pricing and broader economic conditions.

Looking ahead, the directors remain confident in the company’s outlook. The business is well positioned within its niche of high-quality forged products, with a strong customer base and continued focus on higher margin work. Ongoing investment in plant, technology and operational efficiency is expected to support future growth in both revenue and profitability.

FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES
Risk is present in all businesses. The directors consider the major risks and uncertainties at this point in time are:

1. Product Mix
Commodity-like steel products face higher degrees of competition and are more exposed to price volatility. The company produces higher value added products that provide above average margins, stable volumes and contribute to a reduction on relative earnings fluctuations.

2. Raw Material Position
The cost efficiency of the company's operations is highly dependent on the cost and availability of raw materials. The company does not rely too heavily on one major supplier for raw materials, which gives the company access to readily available raw materials at competitive prices.

3. Market Volatility
Being that the company operates in the steel industry, its earnings are exposed to cyclical changes to supply and demand, resulting in price fluctuations which can lead to varied and volatile financial performance. Management have significant experience in the steel industry which allows them to take a proactive response to cyclical changes in order to reduce the risk that market volatility has on the company's financial performance.

STRATEGIC REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 OCTOBER 2025

PERFORMANCE MONITORING
The board monitors the company's performance in a number of ways including key performance indicators. The key financial performance indicators for the company are as follows:

2025 2024
£ £
Revenue 40,310,887 42,095,692
Return On Capital Employed 47% 54.1%
Operating Profit per Employee 70,082 63,769
Turnover per Employee 220,278 232,573
Gross Profit Margin 40% 35%
Operating Profit Margin 31.8% 27.4%
Current Ratio 1.39:1 1.22:1

The revenue indicator represents the value of goods delivered to customers in the year and measures sales reduction in value terms.

The return on capital employed indicator represents the value of return to the shareholder in the year through the activities of the business and measures return in value terms.

The operating profit per employee indicator represents the contribution per employee to overall profit levels and measures growth per employee in value terms.

The turnover per production employee indicator represents the value of sales output per employee and measures production efficiency in value terms.

The gross profit margin is calculated by dividing gross profit by revenue and measures the total profitability of product sales.

The operating profit margin is the profit generated by the company from operations excluding finance and investment income and costs before taxation. This indicator measures the overall profitability of the business for the year.

The current ratio indicator represents the value of the company's current assets to its current liabilities and measures the ability of the company to finance its current liabilities from business operations as they fall due.

The board also considers the following key non-financial performance indicators:

1. Customer mix against plans.
2. Sales activities measured against results.

These non-financial indicators are reviewed regularly by the board.

In respect of bank balances the liquidity risk is managed by maintaining a balance in order to ensure all due amounts can be paid within the deadlines stipulated when credit is taken. The company makes use of additional funds held in excess of that required for day to day running of the company by investing them in high interest accounts. These have instant access to ensure money is available where required to meet any day to day demands on cash flow.

In respect of loans to and from the company, these comprise of loans both from and to directors and to employees. The loans to and from directors and to employees are interest free and payable on demand. The directors are aware of the company's financial position and would not withdraw funds unless the company had sufficient funds to satisfy the day to day running of the business.

Trade debtors are managed in respect of credit and cash flow risk by the regular monitoring of amounts outstanding for time limits.

Trade creditors liquidity risk is managed by ensuring sufficient funds are available to meet the amounts due.

13 July 2026

REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF
ABBEY FORGED PRODUCTS LIMITED

Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of Abbey Forged Products Limited (the 'company') for the year ended 31 October 2025 which comprise the Income Statement, Other Comprehensive Income, Statement of Financial Position, Statement of Changes in Equity and 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 company's affairs as at 31 October 2025 and of its 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 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.

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.

Other information
The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information in the 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 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 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
ABBEY FORGED PRODUCTS LIMITED


Matters on which we are required to report by exception
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 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, 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.

Responsibilities of directors
As explained more fully in the Statement of Directors' Responsibilities set out on pages five and six, 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 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.

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 assessment of the susceptibility to material misstatement, whether by fraud or error, is made in a risk based
approach.

In this approach, laws and regulations applicable to the entity, such as the Companies Act 2006, United Kingdom
Generally Accepted Accounting Practice including Financial Reporting Standard 102, the relevant tax compliance
regulations within the UK, employment law, and Health and Safety law is considered, and the policies and controls the entity has in place to comply with these laws are reviewed, by discussion, reviews of correspondence and registrations monitored by external bodies. The engagement team remained alert to any indications of fraud or non-compliance with laws and regulations throughout the audit.

Policies and controls relating to the risk of material misstatement as a result of fraud, management override of controls, and revenue recognitions are also considered. These are assessed by obtaining an understanding of the company's operations and control environment. The policies and controls have been reviewed by discussion, review and sample testing of accounting entries, including journals, challenging assumptions and judgements, reviewing and evaluating related parties transactions, and wider background searches. Testing of income recognition and cut off is also completed.

We have ensured that the engagement team have appropriate levels of competence and experience to effectively
monitor these risks and carry out work relevant to our assessment of each risk, including consideration of the industry the company operates in and its size and complexity.

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
ABBEY FORGED PRODUCTS LIMITED

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 OCTOBER 2025

1. STATUTORY INFORMATION

Abbey Forged Products 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" and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.

Financial Reporting Standard 102 - reduced disclosure exemptions
The company 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 requirements of Section 7 Statement of Cash Flows.

Preparation of consolidated financial statements
The financial statements contain information about Abbey Forged Products Limited as an individual company and do not contain consolidated financial information as the parent of a group. The company is exempt under Section 400 of the Companies Act 2006 from the requirements to prepare consolidated financial statements as it and its subsidiary undertakings are included by full consolidation in the consolidated financial statements of its parent, The Abbey Group UK Ltd, Beeley Wood Works, Sheffield, S6 1ND.

Turnover
Turnover is the amount derived from ordinary activities measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable. The stated amount is after trade discounts, other sales taxes and Value Added Tax, in accordance with FRS102 Section 23.

Tangible fixed assets
Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life.
Freehold property - not provided
Long leasehold - not provided
Plant and machinery - 10% on cost
Fixtures and fittings - 25% on cost
Motor vehicles - 15% on reducing balance
Computer equipment - 33% on cost

The directors consider that freehold properties are maintained in such a state of repair that their residual value is at least equal to their net book values. As a result, the corresponding depreciation would not be material and therefore is not charged in the profit and loss account.

The directors perform annual impairment reviews in accordance with the requirements of FRS102 Section 17 and Section 27 to ensure that the carrying value is not lower than the recoverable amount.

Investments in subsidiaries
Investments in subsidiary undertakings are recognised at cost.

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

Stocks
Stocks and work in progress are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value, after making due allowance for obsolete and slow moving items.

Cost is calculated using the first-in, first-out method and includes all purchase, transport, and handling costs in bringing stocks to their present location and condition.

Taxation
Taxation for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the 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 statement of financial position date.

Deferred tax
Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed at the statement of financial position 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.

Foreign currencies
Assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rates of exchange ruling at the statement of financial position 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
Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to profit or loss on a straight line basis over the period of the lease.

Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits
The company operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the company's pension scheme are charged to profit or loss in the period to which they relate.
