GROUP STRATEGIC REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025
The directors present the strategic report and financial statements for the period ended 31 December 2025.
The Group continues to progress a strategy of strengthening its position as the market leader in the manufacture and supply of Converted Paper Packaging (CPP) products, focusing on margin sustainability.
The results for the year demonstrate the ongoing positive impact of the above, in what proved to be a relatively stable market landscape, with minimal raw material price fluctuation through the year.
Operating and raw material purchasing flexibility continued to allow the business to take advantage of specific market opportunities presented in the year, which contributed to delivering a gross RM contribution increase as a % of Sales of 1.7% points vs 2024.
We continued to target specific packaging sectors for both volume and margin growth with our increased variety of CPP products, whilst carefully managing our exposure to the mainstream Corrugated Sheet Board (CSB) product market. A policy which led to an overall increase in total volumes sold vs 2024 of 8.5%.
Turnover was up by 5.3% on 2024 as a net impact of the volume increase and market driven selling price reductions in certain sectors, in what remained a competitive marketplace. However direct and indirect cost pressure resulting largely from economic circumstances, resulted in an increase of 4% in these cost lines. The combination of which resulted in a fall of 3.1% in Operating Profit as a % of Sales vs 2024.
Similar economic conditions and therefore cost pressures are expected to continue through 2026 and onwards. In consequence, our ongoing plans and expectations focus on maintaining our stated business strategy highlighted in the first paragraph, supported by a renewed focus on the development of new products, and customers to deliver incremental volume growth. Retaining our financial and operational flexibility to facilitate timely proactive reaction to upward and or downward fluctuations across all existing and new packaging markets.
The Executive Management team continue to place an emphasis on maintaining an adaptable operating structure, alongside ongoing development of, its people, new products, new customers and existing customer relationships. Delivering a clear template to facilitate our ability to maximise opportunity and to strengthen the resilience of the business to swings in the economic climate, market demand and to the likely continuing upward movement on key cost areas.

Delivering a clear template to facilitate our ability to maximise opportunity and to strengthen the resilience of the business to swings in the economic climate, market demand and to the likely continuing upward movement on key cost areas.
The 2025 results again confirmed the business’s ability to flex production and product focus to take advantage of fluctuations in demand in specific sectors or products, maximising sales and margin opportunity when circumstances allowed.
Cash at bank comprises of bank balances and the carrying amounts approximate to fair value.
The credit risk on cash at bank is negligible as the counterparties are banks with high credit ratings. The company’s main risk relates to trade debtors, which are part of an invoice discounting arrangement. The company manages this risk through credit control procedures and where possible insures against such risks. The carrying amount for debtors is net of provision for doubtful debts.
Ongoing volatility in the world and UK economies and its impact on energy and other costs, alongside the continuing pressure on labour costs and the cyclical nature of pricing and demand within the paper industry, represent risks which need to be managed. The company operates within competitive markets but its balanced product offering and Management’s ability to react quickly to changing circumstances, result in the business being well positioned to adapt to change.

GROUP STRATEGIC REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025
The Group's key performance indicators in the year were as follows:
Management are confident that the business is positioned to deliver strong performance in the forthcoming year. The strategic changes implemented over the previous 7 years have ensured greater resilience to external factors, sustainable gross margin growth and an enhanced opportunity for development. Supported by selective investment in new equipment this strategy has facilitated both an increase in capacity and the opportunity for the development of new product ranges and new markets to be explored in the short to mid-term.

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 Group Strategic Report, the Directors' Report and the consolidated financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations.
In preparing these financial statements, the directors are required to:
∙select suitable accounting policies for the Group's financial statements 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 Group will continue in business.
The directors are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the Company's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the Company and the Group and to 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.
The principal activity of the Group was the manufacture of converted paper packaging and corrugated paper products.
The profit for the year, after taxation, amounted to £641,440 (2024 - £985,458).
In a relatively weak market, the trading company increased turnover by 5.3% (£0.8m), supported by an 8.5% rise in volume. However, gross contribution fell by 2.7 percentage points as a % of sales as a result of higher that RPI cost inflation across a few of the key expense lines, driven by economic and political factors that continue to affect the manufacturing and hospitality sectors. Despite these pressures, the trading company delivered an operating profit of £1.14m, although this was 3.3% lower (as a % of sales) than achieved in 2024.
Ordinary dividends to the value of £182.5k were paid to shareholders.
Ordinary dividends to the value of £182.5k were paid to shareholders.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF JOHN ROBERTS SOLUTIONS LIMITED
We have audited the financial statements of John Roberts Solutions Limited (the 'parent Company') and its subsidiaries (the 'Group') for the year ended 31 December 2025, which comprise the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income, the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position, the Company Statement of Financial Position, the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows, the Consolidated Statement of Changes in Equity, the Company 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).
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 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.
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 or 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.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF JOHN ROBERTS SOLUTIONS 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 Group 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 Group 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 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 Directors' Report.

JOHN ROBERTS SOLUTIONS LIMITED
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF JOHN ROBERTS SOLUTIONS 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 Group 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 obtained an understanding of laws and regulations that affect the company, focusing on those that had a direct effect on the financial statements or that had a fundamental effect on its operations. Key laws and regulations that we identified included the UK Companies Act, tax legislation and occupational health and employment legislation.
• We enquired of the directors of non-compliance with relevant laws and regulations. We also reviewed controls the directors have in place to ensure compliance.
• We gained an understanding of the controls that the directors have in place to prevent and detect fraud. We enquired of the directors about any incidences of fraud that had taken place during the accounting period.
• The risk of fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations was discussed within the audit team and tests were planned and performed to address these risks.
• We reviewed financial statements disclosures and tested to supporting documentation to assess compliance with relevant laws and regulations discussed above.
• We enquired of the directors and third-party advisors about actual and potential litigation and claims.
• We performed analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected relationships that might indicate risks of material misstatement due to fraud.
• In addressing the risk of fraud due to management override of internal controls we tested the appropriateness of journal entries and assessed whether the judgements made in making accounting estimates were indicative of a potential bias.
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
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 Group management to exercise judgement in applying the Group's accounting policies (see note 3).
The following principal accounting policies have been applied:
The consolidated financial statements present the results of the Company and its own subsidiaries ("the Group") as if they form a single entity. Intercompany transactions and balances between group companies are therefore eliminated in full.
The consolidated financial statements incorporate the results of business combinations using the purchase method. In the Statement of Financial Position, the acquiree's identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities are initially recognised at their fair values at the acquisition date. The results of acquired operations are included in the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income from the date on which control is obtained. They are deconsolidated from the date control ceases.
In accordance with the transitional exemption available in FRS 102, the Group has chosen not to retrospectively apply the standard to business combinations that occurred before the date of transition to FRS 102, being 01 January 2022.

Turnover is recognised at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable for goods and services provided in the normal course of business, and is shown net of VAT and other sales related taxes. The fair value of consideration takes into account trade discounts, settlement discounts and volume rebates.

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025
2.Accounting policies (continued)
In reaching their conclusion, the directors have considered their cash flows for a period of twelve months from the date of approval of the financial statements. In doing so the directors have considered the availability of funding, both externally and internally and have concluded that there is sufficient and substantial headroom within the Group’s working capital facilities throughout the year.
After consideration of all factors, the directors continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.

2.Accounting policies (continued)
Goodwill
Goodwill represents the difference between amounts paid on the cost of a business combination and the acquirer’s interest in the fair value of the Group's share of its identifiable assets and liabilities of the acquiree at the date of acquisition. Subsequent to initial recognition, goodwill is measured at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses. Goodwill is amortised on a straight-line basis to the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income over its useful economic life.
The estimated useful lives range as follows:
Goodwill - 10 years

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025
2.Accounting policies (continued)
At each reporting date the Group assesses whether there is any indication of impairment. If such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is determined which is the higher of its fair value less costs to sell and its value in use. An impairment loss is recognised where the carrying amount exceeds the recoverable amount.
The Group adds to the carrying amount of an item of fixed assets the cost of replacing part of such an item when that cost is incurred, if the replacement part is expected to provide incremental future benefits to the Group. The carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognised. Repairs and maintenance are charged to profit or loss during the period in which they are incurred.
Depreciation is charged so as to allocate the cost of assets less their residual value over their estimated useful lives, using the method noted below per category.
Depreciation is provided on the following basis:
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.

JOHN ROBERTS SOLUTIONS LIMITED
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 Group 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 Group's Statement of Financial Position when the Group 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 Group's cash and cash equivalents, trade and most other debtors due with the operating cycle fall into this category of financial instruments.

JOHN ROBERTS SOLUTIONS LIMITED
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025
2.Accounting policies (continued)
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.
