GROUP STRATEGIC REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2026

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

The Group is engaged in the manufacturing and sale of premium mass-market, skin care and cosmetic products around the world. The products are manufactured using specialist subcontractors located mainly in the UK, which are then sold directly in the UK and USA. Distributors are used for all other jurisdictions. The Group sells products to retailers, including grocery chains, pharmacies, independent stores, and e-retailers as well as directly to consumers via its own website.

Business review
 
The Group's business strategy is to remain competitive, with the emphasis on improving performance, providing high-quality and relevant products, whilst focusing on cost efficiency. Our key focuses for improving performance have come in several areas. Firstly, driving and developing further the digital side of the business. Secondly, driving an efficient and effective bricks-and-mortar business, being in the right stores whilst having the right cost base to drive sales. Thirdly, product innovation is key for the business to grow. This enables the business to remain relevant and win in the marketplace. Lastly, as we go through the cost-of-living crisis, a key focus is to drive down cost and risk in the business to protect profit and cash. A lower cost base and better sales mix will enable the business to succeed. The directors are confident that, by adopting the above strategies and investing in our people, the Group will be successful.

The results for the year show profits before taxation of £466,577. This compares positively with the financial year ended March 2025 figure of £85,346. The result was above expectations for the following reasons:

1.Increased online marketing spend drove significant B2C sales increase which in turn translated in better
operating margin
2.Exiting of unprofitable or low-margin product lines and B2B retailers.
3.Revenue increase of 51% vs LY because of successful new product launches and increased but more
targeted marketing spent. In-store promotions have almost doubles vs LFY but were concentrated almost 
exclusively to our largest UK B2B retailer which in turn drove the increase in revenue. Likewise, marketing
spent more than doubled against LFY mainly targeting B2C customers. This has driven the increase in
profitability.
4.The Group has traditionally drawn most of its revenue from the UK. This has been more pronounced in
the current FY with 94% of total revenue derived from the UK. This was due to management’s decision to
exit all international brick-and-mortar retailers and sell internationally solely via online marketplaces.

The Group continues to maintain a strong financial position with reserves of £6,518,065 on 31 March 2026 (2025 - £6,470,728).

Principal risks and uncertainties
 
The management of the business and the execution of the Group's strategy are subject to risk. The Group's internal control, which is based on standards, procedures, and good practices, is aimed at reducing risks.

The key business risk and uncertainty affecting the Group is currently the cost-of-living crisis. Stubbornly high food and electricity prices are eating at the consumer’s disposable income which in turn affects spending. We have observed reduced footfall on the high street and high energy prices may force store closures. We are monitoring this whilst reducing business risk as we move forward. This is primarily around driving a different sales mix and reducing the cost base of the business to align to new buying patterns. Other areas of risk which are more relevant is the historically high tax burden imposed on UK residents, and since the Group’s business is 94% UK based any government policy that reduces the British consumer’s disposable income is an area of concern. Other risk factors include our customers' financial condition and changes in the retail and cosmetic industries. Lastly, risk from retailer inventory control practices including, but not limited to, levels of inventory carried at point of sale and practices used to control inventory shrinkage affect the business and we work closely with our retailers to understand any potential changes.

GROUP STRATEGIC REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2026


Key performance indicators
 
Key performance indicators are revenue and profit before taxation. These are disclosed on Page 9.

Financial risk management

Foreign currency, credit and interest rate risks have little impact on the Group's operations because the directors have taken the following actions:
1) Matching foreign currency outflows with inflows, thus avoiding foreign exchange hedging using financial
instruments.
2)Maintaining a diversified pool of customers to avoid concentration risk.
3)Not having any bank loans.
 
The interest of the Group's employees
 
The directors recognise that our employees are our most important asset to our business and delivery of our strategy. The success of our business depends on retaining and motivating employees. The directors ensure the business cares for the employee's well-being and offers benefits which are designed to be competitive within the market. All employees have targets and objectives that relate to individual and business performance whilst training needs are met. 

The need to foster the Group's business relationships with suppliers and customers

Delivering our strategy requires strong relationships with suppliers and customers. The directors are aware of the fair and professional relationships we promote. Regular meetings are held at differing levels to discuss objectives, performance and how to drive performance for all parties.

The impact of the Group's operations on the community and environment

We are aware of our impact on the environment and community. The Group supports charities and local communities through local initiatives. From an environmental perspective the Group seeks to reduce its carbon footprint and seeks to increase the percentage of recycled plastics used in our packaging. In addition, the parent company is certified carbon neutral by Carbon UK.

The desirability of the Group maintaining high standards of business conduct

The Group promotes its values, beliefs and ethical standards in the office whilst there are forums for employees to discuss all these topics. 


This report was approved by the board on 4 August 2026 and signed on its behalf.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF NIP AND FAB LIMITED
 

Opinion


We have audited the financial statements of Nip And Fab Limited (the 'parent Company') and its subsidiaries (the 'Group') for the year ended 31 March 2026, which comprise the Group Statement of Comprehensive Income, the Group and Company Statements of Financial Position, the Group Statement of Cash Flows, the Group and Company Statement of Changes in Equity and the related notes, including a summary of significant accounting policiesThe 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 Group's and of the parent Company's affairs as at 31 March 2026 and of the Group's 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 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.


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 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.


Other information


The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Annual Report, other than the financial statements and our Auditors' Report 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 statementsour 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 there is a material
Page 5

 
NIP AND FAB LIMITED
 
 
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF NIP AND FAB LIMITED (CONTINUED)

misstatement in the financial statements or a material misstatement of the other information. 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.


Opinion 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 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.


Matters on which we are required to report by exception
 

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.


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 by the parent Company, or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or
the parent Company 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 set out on page 3, 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 Group's and the parent 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 Group or the parent 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 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,
Page 6

 
NIP AND FAB LIMITED
 
 
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF NIP AND FAB LIMITED (CONTINUED)

including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below:

Our approach to identifying and assessing the risks of material misstatement in respect of irregularities, including fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations, was as follows: 
 
the engagement partner ensured that the engagement team collectively had the appropriate competence, capabilities and skills to identify or recognise non-compliance with applicable laws and regulations; 
we identified the laws and regulations applicable to the Group through discussions with directors and other management, and from our commercial knowledge and experience of the cosmetics sector; 
we focused on specific laws and regulations which we considered may have a direct material effect on the financial statements or the operations of the Group, including the Companies Act 2006, taxation legislation, data protection, anti-bribery, employment, environmental and health and safety legislation;
we assessed the extent of compliance with the laws and regulations identified above through making enquiries of management and inspecting legal correspondence; and 
identified laws and regulations were communicated within the audit team regularly and the team remained alert to instances of non-compliance throughout the audit. 

We assessed the susceptibility of the Group’s financial statements to material misstatement, including obtaining an understanding of how fraud might occur, by: 
 
making enquiries of management as to where they considered there was susceptibility to fraud, their knowledge of actual, suspected and alleged fraud; 
considering the internal controls in place to mitigate risks of fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations; and 
understanding the design of the Group’s remuneration policies. 

To address the risk of fraud through management bias and override of controls, we: 
 
performed analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected relationships; 
tested journal entries to identify unusual transactions; 
assessed whether judgements and assumptions made in determining the accounting estimates were indicative of potential bias; and 
investigated the rationale behind significant or unusual transactions. 

In response to the risk of irregularities and non-compliance with laws and regulations, we designed procedures which included, but were not limited to: 
 
agreeing financial statement disclosures to underlying supporting documentation; 
enquiring of management as to actual and potential litigation and claims; and 
reviewing correspondence with HMRC and relevant regulators. 

There are inherent limitations in our audit procedures described above. The more removed that laws and regulations are from financial transactions, the less likely it is that we would become aware of non-compliance. Auditing standards also limit the audit procedures required to identify non-compliance with laws and regulations to enquiry of the directors and other management and the inspection of regulatory and legal correspondence, if any. 

Material misstatements that arise due to fraud can be harder to detect than those that arise from error as they may involve deliberate concealment or collusion.


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.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2026

1.


General information

Nip and Fab Limited is a private company, limited by shares, registered in England and Wales. Its registered office and business address is The Studio Building, 6th Floor, 21 Evesham Street, London, W11 4AJ.

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 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 judgment in applying the Group's accounting policies (see note 3).

The Company has taken advantage of the exemption allowed under section 408 of the Companies Act 2006 and has not presented its own Statement of Comprehensive Income in these financial statements.

The following principal accounting policies have been applied:

 
2.2

Basis of consolidation

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.

 
2.3

Turnover

Turnover is recognised to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Group and the revenue can be reliably measured. Revenue is measured as the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, excluding discounts, rebates, value added tax and other sales taxes. 

The Group derives revenue from wholesale and retail sales. Revenue from both is recognised when the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods have passed to the customer. This is usually when the goods are dispatched from the warehouse.

The Group has a small number of contracts with retailers where unsold products may be returned at the retailer's discretion. Revenue is reduced by the amount relevant to the number of unsold products returned at time the return is confirmed by the customer.

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2026

2.Accounting policies (continued)

 
2.4

Foreign currency translation

Functional and presentation currency

The Group's functional and presentational currency is £ Sterling.

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.

On consolidation, the results of overseas operations are translated into Sterling at rates approximating to those ruling when the transactions took place. All assets and liabilities of overseas operations are translated at the rate ruling at the reporting date. Exchange differences arising on translating the opening net assets at opening rate and the results of overseas operations at actual rate are recognised in other comprehensive income.

 
2.5

Research and development

In the research phase of an internal project it is not possible to demonstrate that the project will generate future economic benefits and hence all expenditure on research is recognised as an expense when it is incurred. Intangible assets are recognised from the development phase of a project if and only if certain specific criteria are met in order to demonstrate the asset will generate probable future economic benefits and that its cost can be reliably measured. The capitalised development costs are subsequently amortised on a straight-line basis over their useful economic lives.

If it is not possible to distinguish between the research phase and the development phase of an internal project, the expenditure is treated as if it were all incurred in the research phase only.

 
2.6

Pensions

Defined contribution pension plan

The Group does not employ staff directly. A sister company, under common control, employs staff and recharges their costs to the Group, including pension contributions. 

The sister company operates a defined contribution scheme. A defined contribution plan is a pension plan under which the employer pays fixed contributions into a separate entity, with no further obligation once paid.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2026

2.Accounting policies (continued)

 
2.7

Taxation

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 and the Group operate and generate income.


 
2.8

Intangible assets

Intangible assets are initially recognised at cost. After recognition, under the cost model, intangible assets are measured at cost less any accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses.

All intangible assets are considered to have a finite useful life. If a reliable estimate of the useful life cannot be made, the useful life shall not exceed ten years.

 The estimated useful lives range as follows:

-
3
years

 
2.9

Valuation of investments

Investments in subsidiaries are measured at cost less accumulated impairment.

 
2.10

Stocks

Stocks are stated at the lower of the average cost and net realisable value, being the estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell. Average cost comprises the purchase price, import duties and freight charges. 

At each reporting date, stocks are assessed for impairment. If stock is impaired, the carrying amount is reduced to its selling price less costs to complete and sell. The impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss.

 
2.11

Debtors

Short-term debtors are measured at the transaction price, less any impairment.

 
2.12

Cash and cash equivalents

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

 
2.13

Creditors

Short-term creditors are measured at the transaction price.

 
2.14

Financial instruments

The Group only enters into transactions that result in the recognition of basic financial assets and

basic financial liabilities.

Basic financial assets, such as trade and other debtors, are initially recognised at the transaction price less attributable transaction costs. Basic financial liabilities, such as trade and other creditors, are initially recognised at the transaction price plus attributable transaction costs. Subsequently, they are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment losses in the case of basic financial assets.

Financial assets are derecognised when (a) the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire or are settled, or (b) substantially all the risks and rewards of the ownership of the asset are transferred to another party or (c) control of the asset has been transferred to another party who has the practical ability to unilaterally sell the asset to an unrelated third party without imposing additional restrictions.

Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amounts presented in the financial statements when there is an 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.

 
2.15

Dividends

Interim equity dividends are recognised when paid. Final equity dividends are recognised when approved by the shareholders at an annual general meeting.


3.


Judgments 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 application of the accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenue and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

Estimates and underlying assumptions are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are reasonable under the circumstances. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimates are revised and in any future periods affected. 

In preparing these financial statements the directors have made the following judgements:
 
Whether the group's intangible and tangible assets indicate impairment. Decisions are made based on considering factors such as the economic viability and expected future financial performance of the asset.
Whether the stock value at the reporting date is accurate and stock is not impaired. Management make use of the available market information, for example fashion trends, to determine if stock is sellable. Expiry date of stock is also taken into consideration.
Whether trade debtors are recoverable and provision for bad debts is adequate. Payment history of debtors is reviewed and post reporting date events are monitored for potential bad debts.
