MBC Timberframe (UK) Ltd
Statement of Directors' Responsibilities
The directors are responsible for preparing the report and 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 (Financial Reporting Standard 102 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 of the profit or loss of the company 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 estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;
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 transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the company 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 hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
MBC Timberframe (UK) Ltd
Strategic Report
MBC Timberframe (UK) Ltd designs, manufactures, and installs high-performance timber frame structures for residential and commercial projects across the UK. The company continues to benefit from strong demand for sustainable construction solutions, driven by government initiatives to reduce carbon emissions and improve energy efficiency in housing.

Turnover increased by 28% to £16.48m (2025: £12.86m), reflecting strong growth across self-build and low-energy housing projects.

Gross profit increased to £6.17m (2025: £5.04m), maintaining solid margins despite cost pressures.

Operating costs increased significantly, particularly in:

Wages and salaries £2.81m (2025: £2.21m)
Temporary and recruitment costs £0.41m (2025: £0.07m)
Rent, rates, insurance, and energy costs all rising year-on-year

As a result, profit growth was modest, with net profit increasing to £0.48m (2025: £0.41m).

This reflects both inflationary pressures and continued investment in workforce capacity to support growth.

From a financial position perspective, the balance sheet remains strong:

Net assets increased to £3.20m (2025: £2.89m)
Fixed assets increased to £1.07m, reflecting continued investment in plant and machinery
Working capital improved, with reduced creditors and strong debtor balances supporting liquidity

Market Trends

The UK timber frame market continues to expand, supported by:
Government targets for low-carbon housing and energy efficiency
Increased adoption of Modern Methods of Construction (MMC)
Rising demand for Passivhaus and low-energy homes among self-builders

Industry forecasts suggest timber frame’s share of UK housing could exceed 35% by 2030, presenting significant growth opportunities for MBC Timberframe.

Sustainability and Non-Financial KPIs
Sustainability remains central to our strategy:
Carbon Reduction: Timber frame construction offers up to 80% lower embodied carbon compared to traditional masonry
Waste Management: Over 90% of timber waste recycled
Health & Safety: Zero reportable incidents during the year
Employee Development: Increased investment in training, apprenticeships, and recruitment to support operational expansion
Principal Risks and Uncertainties

Supply Chain Volatility: Timber price fluctuations and availability
Labour Shortages: Increased reliance on temporary labour and recruitment spend highlights sector-wide skills constraints
Economic Conditions: Interest rate changes impacting housing demand and project pipelines
Working Capital Risk: High debtor balances and contract-based revenue create exposure to timing of cash receipts
Regulatory Compliance: Evolving building regulations and sustainability standards

Mitigation strategies include long-term supplier agreements, workforce development programmes, credit control improvements, and continuous monitoring of regulatory changes.

Future Outlook
The company is well-positioned to capitalise on the growing demand for sustainable housing solutions. Strong revenue growth in 2026, combined with ongoing investment in infrastructure and people, provides a robust platform for continued expansion.

Strategic priorities for 2027 include:
Expanding production capacity to meet rising demand
Improving operational efficiency to protect margins amid cost inflation
Investing in digital design and off-site manufacturing technologies
Strengthening cash collection and working capital management
Enhancing sustainability credentials through carbon-neutral initiatives

Operational Exposure to Financial Risks

The company's operations expose it to a number of financial risks including liquidity risk, credit risk, interest rate risk and foreign exchange risk.

The directors actively monitor and manage these risks as part of the company's overall risk management programme.

Liquidity risk arises from the requirement to meet obligations as they fall due. The company maintains adequate cash reserves and monitors cash flow forecasts to ensure sufficient funds are available to meet operational and capital expenditure requirements. At 31 January 2026, the company had net current assets of £2.40m (2025: £2.44m), providing a strong working capital position.

Credit risk principally relates to trade debtors. The company seeks to minimise exposure by dealing with customers of appropriate credit quality, carrying out credit assessments where appropriate, and monitoring outstanding balances on an ongoing basis. The level of credit risk is considered to be limited due to the diversity of the customer base and established credit control procedures.

Interest rate risk arises primarily from borrowings and cash deposits. The company's exposure is considered low as borrowings at the year end were minimal and debt levels are closely managed. Changes in market interest rates are not expected to have a material impact on the company's financial position.

Foreign exchange risk arises where purchases or sales are denominated in currencies other than sterling.

The company monitors exchange rate movements and seeks, where practicable, to match foreign currency inflows and outflows. Given that the majority of transactions are conducted in sterling, the directors consider foreign exchange risk to be limited.
This report was approved by the board on 7 July 2026 and signed on its behalf.

Independent auditor's report
to the members of MBC Timberframe (UK) Ltd
Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of MBC Timberframe (UK) Ltd (the 'company') for the year ended 31 January 2026 which comprise the Income Statement, the Statement of Financial Position, the Statement of Changes in Equity, the Statement of Cash Flows and notes to the financial statements, including 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 the 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 January 2026 and of its profit for the year then ended;
have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice;
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 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 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 other information comprises the information included in the annual report other than the financial statements and our auditor’s 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.
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 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.
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 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.
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
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.
In identifying and assessing risks of material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, we considered laws and regulations relevant to the Company’s operations, including the Companies Act 2006, tax legislation, employment law, and industry-specific regulations.

Our audit procedures included:
Enquiring of management and those charged with governance about their own assessment of the risk of irregularities;
Reviewing correspondence with regulatory bodies;
Testing journal entries and other adjustments for evidence of management bias; and
Evaluating the design and implementation of controls to prevent and detect irregularities.
We remained alert to indications of non-compliance throughout the audit. We did not identify any material misstatements arising from non-compliance with laws and regulations or from fraud. However, there are inherent limitations in detecting irregularities, and the risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one arising from error, as fraud may involve deliberate concealment or collusion.
A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is available on the Financial Reporting Council’s website at www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditor’s report.
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 an auditor's report 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 Accounts
for the year ended 31 January 2026
1 Summary of significant accounting policies
Basis of preparation
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention and in accordance with FRS 102, The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland.
Turnover
Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, net of discounts and value added taxes. Turnover includes revenue earned from the sale of goods and from the rendering of services. Turnover from the sale of goods is recognised when the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods have transferred to the buyer. Turnover from the rendering of services is recognised by reference to the stage of completion of the contract. The stage of completion of a contract is measured by comparing the costs incurred for work performed to date to the total estimated contract costs.
Intangible fixed assets
Intangible fixed assets are measured at cost less accumulative amortisation and any accumulative impairment losses.
Tangible fixed assets
Tangible fixed assets are measured at cost less accumulative depreciation and any accumulative impairment losses. Depreciation is provided on all tangible fixed assets, other than freehold land, at rates calculated to write off the cost, less estimated residual value, of each asset evenly over its expected useful life, as follows:
Leased assets over the lease term
Plant and machinery 15% straight line
Motor Vehicles 15% straight line
Investments
Investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures are measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. Listed investments are measured at fair value. Unlisted investments are measured at fair value unless the value cannot be measured reliably, in which case they are measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. Changes in fair value are included in the profit and loss account.
Stocks
Stocks are measured at the lower of cost and estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell. Cost is determined using the first in first out method. The carrying amount of stock sold is recognised as an expense in the period in which the related revenue is recognised.
Debtors
Short term debtors are measured at transaction price (which is usually the invoice price), less any impairment losses for bad and doubtful debts. Loans and other financial assets are initially recognised at transaction price including any transaction costs and subsequently measured at amortised cost determined using the effective interest method, less any impairment losses for bad and doubtful debts.
Creditors
Short term creditors are measured at transaction price (which is usually the invoice price). Loans and other financial liabilities are initially recognised at transaction price net of any transaction costs and subsequently measured at amortised cost determined using the effective interest method.
Taxation
A current tax liability is recognised for the tax payable on the taxable profit of the current and past periods. A current tax asset is recognised in respect of a tax loss that can be carried back to recover tax paid in a previous period. Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences between the recognition of income and expenses in the financial statements and their inclusion in tax assessments. 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. Deferred tax is measured using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date and that are expected to apply to the reversal of the timing difference, except for revalued land and investment property where the tax rate that applies to the sale of the asset is used. Current and deferred tax assets and liabilities are not discounted.
Provisions
Provisions (ie liabilities of uncertain timing or amount) are recognised when there is an obligation at the reporting date as a result of a past event, it is probable that economic benefit will be transferred to settle the obligation and the amount of the obligation can be estimated reliably.
Foreign currency translation
Transactions in foreign currencies are initially recognised at the rate of exchange ruling at the date of the transaction.

At the end of each reporting period foreign currency monetary items are translated at the closing rate of exchange. Non-monetary items that are measured at historical cost are translated at the rate ruling at the date of the transaction. All differences are charged to profit or loss.
Leased assets
A lease is classified as a finance lease if it transfers substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership. All other leases are classified as operating leases. The rights of use and obligations under finance leases are initially recognised as assets and liabilities at amounts equal to the fair value of the leased assets or, if lower, the present value of the minimum lease payments. Minimum lease payments are apportioned between the finance charge and the reduction in the outstanding liability using the effective interest rate method. The finance charge is allocated to each period during the lease so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability. Leased assets are depreciated in accordance with the company's policy for tangible fixed assets. If there is no reasonable certainty that ownership will be obtained at the end of the lease term, the asset is depreciated over the lower of the lease term and its useful life. Operating lease payments are recognised as an expense on a straight line basis over the lease term.
Pensions
Contributions to defined contribution plans are expensed in the period to which they relate.
2 Critical accounting estimates and judgements
The preparation of financial statements requires the use of accounting estimates which, by definition, will seldom equal the actual results. Management also need to exercise judgement in applying the Company's accounting policies.

Information about critical judgements in applying accounting policies that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements are included in the following notes:
(i) Useful economic lives of tangible fixed assets
The annual depreciation charge for tangible fixed assets along with their useful economic lives and residual values are reviewed annually. They are amended when necessary to reflect current estimates, based on technological advancement, future investment, economic utilisation and the physical condition of the assets. See note 10 for the carrying amount of the tangible fixed assets and note 1 for the useful economic lives for each class of asset.
(ii) Recognition of revenue and costs in construction contracts.
Recognised amounts of construction contract revenues and related receivables reflect the company directors' best estimates of contracts outcome and stage of completion. This includes the assessment of the profitability of the contracts. Costs to complete and contract profitability are subject to significant estimation uncertainty. The impact of this estimate is seen in Revenue, in cost of sales and in Stocks (WIP) and Creditors (Deferred Inome). See note 1 for the accounting policy used for revenue recognition.
(iii) Inventory valuation
Management assesses the net realisable value of timber and finished frames based on current market conditions, expected demand, and quality of stock. Estimates include consideration of slow-moving or obsolete items and potential write-downs.
