The directors present their strategic report for the year ended 31 January 2026.

CHAIRMAN'S REPORT

The principal activity of the company during the year was the retail trade of motor vehicle parts and accessories, along with garage services.

A comprehensive business review is available in the consolidated group financial statements of K J Shortis Limited.

The Group has had a strong increase in turnover over the past year partly due to new branches opening and a modest increase in sales in real terms. We continue working hard to improve the margin. During the year the Group was hit with massive increases in the living wage and employers national insurance forced upon us by the Labour Government, which affected the bottom line with additional wage cost of £1.4m.

With the average vehicle age being 9.7 years in the UK, although in East Anglia it is almost 12 years this is good for us, that means drivers are keeping their car for longer and getting them serviced or repaired at independent garages, who are our customers, rather than main dealers.

The Group has actively been looking to improve margin where possible as well as trying to improve processes with technology. More electric vans have been added to the fleet and where possible branches have been fitted with solar panels to power them.

The current financial year has had uncertainty due to ongoing conflict in the Middle East. This is affecting one of our main product groups that we sell, oil. Thanks to our good relationships established over many years with suppliers and strong financial position, we were able to bulk buy stock in advance to maintain supply. Also the cost of fuel for our own vehicles has massively increased, which comes straight off the bottom line, as we are unable to put a fuel surcharge on our deliveries.

Further changes of Labour Government and Prime Minister could upset the UK market.

PRINCIPAL RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

Business risks:

The UK Aftermarket, which has been in a state of flux for the past few years, with mergers and formations of new buying groups seems to have settled down. However independent businesses have been more active with expansion, partly due to lower interest rates. There will be opportunities and when the right opportunities arise, the group can take advantage of these opportunities, due to its strong financial position. The company can afford and hold stocks when suitable deals become available via our good supplier and customer relationships.

Competition:

The UK Aftermarket is a highly competitive marketplace, we have always prided ourselves on being family owned and family run, as well as being totally independent and not members to any buying groups. This allows us to differentiate ourselves from the competition, which we know our customers value. The Company manages this by continually assessing, reviewing and developing suitable systems and practises to ensure quality of service to maintain good customer relationships and competitive pricing.

Regulatory compliance risk:

The Company is subject to various laws and regulations set by local authorities and the Health and Safety Executive. The directors ensure that they are up to date and comply with all relevant areas of legislation to mitigate the risk of fines or other disciplinary actions.

Financial risk management:

The directors continually monitor the performance of the Company, trade debtors, stock levels and stock movements to minimise the financial risk of the business. In addition, the Company ensures adequate financing facilities are in place to meet the requirements of the business, along with the strong financial

strength of the Group's companies

Financial key performance indicators

The directors consider that the key financial performance indicators are those that communicate the financial performance and strength of the Company as a whole, these being turnover and gross margin.

The directors are pleased with the results of the past year; however, the current year is very testing, due to the increase in the labour costs that have been forced onto us by the government. As with most industries, being able to recruit suitable staff has been the biggest problem. We are fortunate that we have loyal key staff to drive the group forward, to assist the group in continuing to reinvest and expand the business.

FUTURE DEVELOPMENTS

Narrative for future developments is included within the strategic report.

STATEMENT OF DIRECTORS' RESPONSIBILITIES

The directors are responsible for preparing the 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 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 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 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.

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 company'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 company's auditors are aware of that information.

AUDITORS

The auditors, Sexty & Co, will be proposed for re-appointment at the forthcoming Annual General Meeting.

ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD:

Mr R J Shortis - Director

30 July 2026

Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of Fastfit Exhausts Limited (the 'company') for the year ended 31 January 2026 which comprise the Statement of Comprehensive Income, Balance Sheet, 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 January 2026 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.

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 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 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:

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 have made enquiries with management regarding their procedures for complying with laws and

regulations along with detecting and prevent fraud. We also review minutes of meetings and any published

news articles to identify any instances of non-compliance with and regulations.

Evidence has been obtained where applicable. Written representation has been obtained to confirm there

have been no breaches of laws and regulations.

The audit procedures are designed so that with reasonable assurance, material misstatements can be

detected, including those relating to fraud. Specifically, areas which involve provisions or estimations have

been tested where material.

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 Report of the Auditors.

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.

3.	ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparing the financial statements

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention as modified by the revaluation of certain assets.

Financial Reporting Standard 102 - reduced disclosure exemptions

The company has taken advantage of the following disclosure exemptions 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;

•

the requirement of paragraph 3.17(d);

•

the requirement of paragraph 33.7.

This information is included in the consolidated financial statements of K.J. Shortis Limited as at 31 January 2026 and these financial statements may be obtained from Companies House.

Related party transactions

The company has taken the disclosure exemption available as permitted by FRS 102 section 33.1A not to disclose transactions with group member companies which are also wholly owned subsidiaries within the same group.

Turnover

Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, excluding discounts, rebates, value added tax and other sales taxes.

The turnover figure shown in the statement of comprehensive income relates wholly to sale of goods.

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of cost of acquisition over the fair value of the separable net assets of businesses acquired. Goodwill is amortised through the profit and loss account in equal instalments over its estimated useful life.

Tangible fixed assets

Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life.

Freehold buildings

-2% straight line basis

Plant and machinery

-15% straight line basis

Fixtures and fittings

-15% straight line basis

Motor vehicles

-25% straight line basis

Stocks

Stocks are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value using the average cost method, after making due allowances for obsolete and slow moving items.

Cost comprises the average cost of all purchases.

To reflect market conditions and in accordance with good accounting practice all rebates have been taken into account.

Financial instruments

The company has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 'Basic Financial Instruments' and Section 12 'Other Financial Instruments Issues' of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments.

Financial instruments are recognised in the company's balance sheet when the company 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 debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method 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. Financial assets classified as receivable within one year are not amortised.

Classification of financial liabilities

Financial liabilities and equity instruments are classified according to the substance of the contractual arrangements entered into. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the company after deducting all of its liabilities.

Basic financial liabilities

Basic financial liabilities, including creditors, bank loans, loans from fellow group companies and preference shares that are classified as debt, are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortised.

Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. Amounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade creditors are recognised initially at transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

Equity instruments

Equity instruments issued by the company are recorded at the proceeds received, net of transaction costs. Dividends payable on equity instruments are recognised as liabilities once they are no longer at the discretion of the company.

Taxation

Taxation for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income, 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.

Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits

The company operates a money purchase pension scheme. Contributions payable are charged in the profit and loss account.

Leasing commitments

The annual rentals due on operating leases are charged to the profit and loss account on a straight line basis over the term of the lease.

Included in cost or valuation of freehold property is freehold land of £225,000 (2025 - £225,000) which is not depreciated.

As a result of the introduction of an accounting policy to depreciate freehold buildings in 1998, the directors have estimated that the value of depreciable assets included in freehold property at 31 January 2026 was £180,000 (2025 - £180,000).
