STRATEGIC REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 28 DECEMBER 2025
The Directors present their strategic report together with the financial statements for the year ended 28 December 2025.
The principal activity of the Company is palletised freight distribution.
The palletised distribution and warehousing market services a broad spectrum of industry sectors, hence the Company’s activity is a reasonable representation of how the UK economy is operating. The UK’s GDP increased slightly during 2025; a combination of higher prices and tighter financial conditions suppressed general demand for goods and therefore the movement of goods. As a result, the UK logistics market has been competitive and challenging. However the Company’s focus on maintaining high service standards for customers has led to improved customer retention and volume growth.
The result for the Company for the year show a profit before tax of £1,493,381 (2024 - £1,778,880). At the end of the year the Company's net assets totalled £10,039,188 (2024 - £8,885,287).
The Directors consider that the most relevant key performance indicators for the business are turnover and EBITDA. EBITDA is calculated as operating profit as set out in the income statement with amounts added back for depreciation and amortisation.

STRATEGIC REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 28 DECEMBER 2025
Various conflicts around the world, international trade negotiations and UK government fiscal policies are creating uncertainty in the UK economy. This is leading to forecasts of suppressed demand and an increased cost of living in the UK, together with an inflationary risk on the company’s supplies. It is uncertain how long markets will be affected.
The Company has experienced an increase in trading in the early part of 2026. Although uncertainty in the economy exists, the directors believe the current proposition provides significant scope for further growth. The business is well invested and has the appropriate levels of finance available to support the growth strategy.
The key risks facing the Company are those consistent within the sector, namely inflation and volatility in customer demand. Both risks can affect the Company’s profitability. The Company has memberships with a pallet network, which supplements the capacities of the Company’s fleet and provides a buffer in volatile times. Management maintains close relationships with key customers and focus on providing a high quality service.
The businesses principal financial instruments comprise: cash balances, trade debtors, trade creditors, fuel hedging and finance lease arrangements. The main purpose of these instruments is to ensure that the business' operations are adequately financed at all times.
In respect of bank balances, liquidity risk is managed by utilising an Invoice Discounting facility. Where surplus funds are available these are invested to maximise returns. The group’s credit risk is managed via the maintenance of credit policies aimed at minimising losses and by the maintenance of a whole turnover credit insurance policy. Trade creditors' liquidity risk is managed by ensuring sufficient funds are available to meet agreed supplier credit terms.

DIRECTORS' REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 28 DECEMBER 2025
The directors present their report and the financial statements for the year ended 28 December 2025.
The profit for the year, after taxation, amounted to £1,153,901 (2024 - £1,442,032).
No dividends were paid during the year (2024 - £Nil). The Directors do not recommend the payment of a final dividend.
The directors who served during the year were:
The company recognises the importance of strong communication and relations with all its employees and, to this end, is committed to keeping employees fully informed on all matters affecting them. The company utilises the communications functionality within its HR system in order to communicate messages quickly and seamlessly across the workforce. In addition, regular management briefings are conducted at a departmental level in order to cascade information and to allow any issues to be raised.
The company is in regular contact with key suppliers in relation to product / service offering, quality and pricing, with each supplier relationship being the responsibility of nominated roles and individuals. The sales team has built strong relationships with customers through many years’ experience of operating in the transport sector. The sales team meet regularly with customers to obtain feedback on services provided, levels of service and to address any service issues.
Applications for employment by disabled persons are always considered, bearing in mind the respective aptitudes and abilities of the applicant concerned. In the event of staff being disabled every effort is made to ensure that their employment with the company continues and that appropriate training is arranged. It is the policy of the company that the training, career development and promotion of a disabled person should, as far as possible, be identical to that of a person who does not suffer from a disability.

DIRECTORS' REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 28 DECEMBER 2025
The financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis which the Directors believe to be appropriate as outlined below.
The Directors have prepared forecasts to 30 June 2027, based on revenue run rates in the early part of 2026. These demonstrate that the Company is forecast to generate cash and that the Company has sufficient cash reserves and headroom in borrowing facilities to enable the Company to meet its obligations as they fall due. The forecasts assume a continuation of revenue run rates experienced in the early part of 2026, together with some modest new business gains.
Whilst the Directors recognise that it is difficult to predict the overall impact of uncertainty in the UK economy on trading in 2026 and beyond, levels of trading during the early part of 2026 provide a high degree of confidence that the Company can meet its financial forecasts.
The group had net current liabilities of £1,351,810 at the balance sheet date (2024: £1,805,131), although this is after taking account of bank borrowings of £2,197,969 (2024: £1,738,333) in respect of an invoice discounting facility, classed as due within one year due to its rolling nature, but which technically has no fixed repayment date. The group have entered into new borrowings post year end and forecasts to June 2027 have been prepared on that basis.
The Directors' forecasts indicate that the Group has sufficient cash reserves and headroom in borrowing facilities to enable it to meet its obligations as they fall due, and as such the Directors believe that it is appropriate to prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis.

The Company is exempt from the requirements of Streamlined Energy and Carbon Reporting as its ultimate parent undertaking, Walkers Transport Holdings Limited, prepares a consolidated Directors' Report that includes the Company's energy use and greenhouse gas emissions information. The Company has therefore not presented separate SECR disclosures.
In accordance with section 414C(11) of the Companies Act, certain matters required to be detailed in the Directors' Report are detailed in the Strategic Report where the Directors consider them to be of strategic importance to the Group.

DIRECTORS' RESPONSIBILITIES STATEMENT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 28 DECEMBER 2025
The directors are responsible for preparing the Strategic report, the Directors' report 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 applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice), including Financial Reporting Standard 102 ‘The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland'. 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 for the Company's financial statements and then apply them consistently;
∙make judgments 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 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 hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF GEORGE WALKER TRANSPORT MANCHESTER LIMITED
We have audited the financial statements of George Walker Transport Manchester Limited (the 'Company') for the year ended 28 December 2025, which comprise the Statement of Comprehensive Income, the Statement of Financial Position, the 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).
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.
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.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF GEORGE WALKER TRANSPORT MANCHESTER LIMITED (CONTINUED)
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.
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.

GEORGE WALKER TRANSPORT MANCHESTER LIMITED
INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF GEORGE WALKER TRANSPORT MANCHESTER 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 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.
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, reviewed correspondence with HMRC and reviewed directors meeting minutes for evidence 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 and fraud was discussed within the audit team and tests were planned and performed to address these risks. We identified the potential for fraud in the following areas: revenue recognition and management override of controls.
•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 Auditor's Report.

The Directors have prepared forecasts to 30 June 2027, based on revenue run rates in the early part of 2026. These demonstrate that the Company is forecast to generate cash and that the Company has sufficient cash reserves and headroom in borrowing facilities to enable the Company to meet its obligations as they fall due. The forecasts assume a continuation of revenue run rates experienced in the early part of 2026, together with some modest new business gains.

Goodwill
Other intangible assets
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:
At each reporting date the Company 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.
Depreciation is charged so as to allocate the cost of assets less their residual value over their estimated useful lives, using the straight-line method.
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.

GEORGE WALKER TRANSPORT MANCHESTER LIMITED
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 28 DECEMBER 2025
2.Accounting policies (continued)
The Company only enters into basic financial instrument transactions that result in the recognition of financial assets and liabilities like trade and other debtors and creditors, loans from banks and other third parties, loans to related parties and investments in ordinary shares.
Debt instruments (other than those wholly repayable or receivable within one year), including loans and other accounts receivable and payable, are initially measured at present value of the future cash flows and subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Debt instruments that are payable or receivable within one year, typically trade debtors and creditors, are measured, initially and subsequently, at the undiscounted amount of the cash or other consideration expected to be paid or received. However, if the arrangements of a short-term instrument constitute a financing transaction, like the payment of a trade debt deferred beyond normal business terms or in case of an out-right short-term loan that is not at market rate, the financial asset or liability is measured, initially at the present value of future cash flows discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar debt instrument and subsequently at amortised cost, unless it qualifies as a loan from a director in the case of a small company, or a public benefit entity concessionary loan.
Financial assets that are measured at cost and amortised cost are assessed at the end of each reporting period for objective evidence of impairment. If objective evidence of impairment is found, an impairment loss is recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income. For financial assets measured at amortised cost, the impairment loss is measured as the difference between an asset's carrying amount and the present value of estimated cash flows discounted at the asset's original effective interest rate. If a financial asset has a variable interest rate, the discount rate for measuring any impairment loss is the current effective interest rate determined under the contract.
