STRATEGIC REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025

Introduction
 
This is a balanced and comprehensive review of the performance of our business during the year and its position
at the year end consistent with the size and nature of our business and is written in the context of the risks and
uncertainties we face.

Business review
 
The main activities of the business are undertaken at the Deptford Recycling Centre in South London. However, it should be noted that the business also manages extensive sub-contract activities. These sub-contract activities involve specific waste streams being delivered & processed to four other strategically located partnership operations. All four of these partner locations are owned by third partner companies, however, operate within long-term contract services on behalf of SSSI Limited.

The Company has continued it’s transition during the year 2024/25, as it prepares for processing its waste feedstocks in a different way to feed new waste fuel feedstock offtake contracts. The Company secured four new long-term UK based Waste to Energy disposal Contracts, each with a minimum of ten-year terms. The first contract commenced in February 2024, the second commenced in August 2025. Contract three commences in 2027, and the fourth in 2029. These new contracts release additional capacity capability within the business allowing significant growth to return. 

However, the new specifications of fuel feedstock required significant operational changes during the last year, causing initial volume restrictions at the main operating centre of Deptford Recycling Centre. These restrictions at Deptford were mitigated by the working relationships with two partner companies located in Barking, East London. Both contracts have facilitated the continuation of the production of Refuse Derived Fuels (RDF) to supply into the Waste to Energy disposal contracts. Processing volume capabilities were also affected due to some old offtake facilities coming to an end in advance of new contracted offtake facilities becoming operational.

The Business also performs the processing of scrap metals, End of Life Tyres & mattresses at the Deptford Recycling centre. Significant tonnages need to be processed at two third-party facilities, each located close by in Kent. The one located at Chatham specifically specialises in the processing of waste Mattresses, Meanwhile the facility located in Hawkhurst is focused on the processing of End-of-Life Tyres & Scrap Metals.

As a result of the above the Company's turnover has decreased to £24,682,805 compared to £27,533,608 in 2024.
 

Principal risks and uncertainties
 
The company's operations expose it to a variety of principal risks that include the threat of failing to react to legislative and market dynamics.

The company regularly reviews the service it provides to ensure it is fully compliant with regulation and so that it can meet the needs of its customers.

The company's principal financial instruments include bank accounts, the main purpose of which is to raise finance for the company's operations. In addition, the company has various other financial assets and liabilities such as trade debtors and trade creditors arising directly from operations.

Liquidity risk 

The company manages its cash requirements in order to maximise interest income and minimise interest expense, whilst ensuring the company has sufficient liquid resources to meet the operating needs of the business.

STRATEGIC REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025

Cash flow risk

The Company manages it´s cash flow requirements on a daily basis, maintaining a close control over all bank balances with daily review and management of both trade receivables and payables.

Foreign currency risk

The company's principal foreign currency exposure arise from trading with overseas companies. The company does not hedge against this risk as the director considers that the volume of transactions does not warrant this. 

Credit risk 

Investments of cash surpluses and borrowings are made through banks and companies which must fulfil credit rating criteria approved by the board.

All customers who wish to trade on credit terms are subject to credit verification procedures. Trade debtors are reviewed on a regular basis and provision is made for doubtful debts when necessary.

Financial key performance indicators
 
Turnover and gross profit are considered to be the company's main monthly performance indicators. However, the Company also operates a detailed business costing model, that tracks volumes, unit prices, and waste mix. This activity-based costing model allows the Company to make strategic decisions on each individual customer, and each waste type delivered. The gross profit margin for the year decreased to 14.8% compared to 17.5% in 2024.

Other key performance indicators
 
The Company has instigated several new KPI’s into the business this year, with daily reporting schedules produced by the data system for management to understand the trading levels & waste mix in a timelier manner. As a result, management have identified underperforming business and are able to optimise the volumes delivered.

Going Concern
 
The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. Please refer to note 2.2 of the financial statements for further details regarding the director's assessment with respect to a material uncertainty which may cast significant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

Future Developments

The rapidly evolving nature of its market produces many opportunities to further develop the Company’s business. There are currently a number of projects under consideration to realise the potential of this market

Post Balance Sheet Events

On the 8th June 2026, the premises from which the company operates suffered a fire. Structural engineers have subsequently inspected the premises and damage and provided an initial assessment. Mangagement's current estimate of the costs of the repair work are £250,000.

DIRECTOR'S RESPONSIBILITIES STATEMENT

The director is responsible for preparing the Strategic Report, the Director's Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations.

Company law requires the director to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law the director has 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 director must not approve the financial statements unless he is 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.

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 director is 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 him to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006He is 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 AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF SSSI LIMITED
 

Opinion


We have audited the financial statements of SSSI Limited (the 'Company') for the year ended 31 March 2025, which comprise the Statement of Comprehensive Income, the Balance Sheet, the Statement of Cash Flows, the Analysis of Net Debt, the 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 Company's affairs as at 31 March 2025 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 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.


Material uncertainty related to going concern


We draw attention to note 2.2 in the financial statements, which indicates that the continued operation of the business of the Company, including the repayment of a non-bank loan, is dependent on the realisation of cash inflows from certain other non-trade debtors, the timing of which remains uncertain. As stated in note 2.2, these events or conditions, along with the other matters as set forth in note 2.2, indicate that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.


In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the director's use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.


Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the director with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.

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.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF SSSI LIMITED (CONTINUED)


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 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:

Based on our understanding of the legal and regulatory frameworks that are applicable to the entity we have considered those that have a direct and indirect material impact on the financial statements and operations of the company. These include but are not limited to the Companies Act 2006, GDPR, employment and Health & Safety legislation and tax legislation.

We obtained an understanding of how the company are complying with those legal and regulatory frameworks by making inquiries to the management. We corroborated our inquiries through our review of documentation generated and assessing the extent of compliance with the relevant laws and regulations.

We discussed among the audit engagement team regarding the opportunities and incentives, including management override of controls, that may exist within the organisation for fraud and how and where fraud might occur in the financial statements.

As a result of performing the above, we identified the greatest potential for material misstatements due to fraud are in the following areas, and our specific procedures performed to address these are described below:

The risk of management override of controls is the area where the financial statements were most susceptible to material misstatement due to fraud. In addition, the key principal risks related to the existence of inappropriate journal entries to impact the profit for the year and management bias in accounting estimates.

Procedures performed to address these were as follows:

• Identifying and assessing the design effectiveness of controls management has in place to prevent and detect fraud, including known or suspected instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations, and fraud,

• Understanding how those charged with governance considered and addressed the potential for override of controls or other inappropriate influence over the financial reporting process,

• Challenging assumptions and judgements made by management in its significant accounting estimates; and

• Identifying and testing journal entries, in particular any unusual journal entries posted around the year-end and journal entries posted by infrequent system users.


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.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025

1.


General information

SSSI Limited is a private company, limited by shares, incorporated in England and Wales, United Kingdom, with a registration number 08915332. The address of the registered office and principal place of business is Deptford Recycling Centre, Landmann Way, London, SE14 5RS. The principal activity of the company continued to be that of the provision of waste disposal.

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 management to exercise judgment in applying the Company's accounting policies (see note 3).

The company functional currency is GBP and the financial statements are rounded to the nearest Pound.

The following principal accounting policies have been applied:

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025

2.Accounting policies (continued)

 
2.2

Going concern

The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis.

In assessing the Company's ability to continue as a going concern, the director has prepared cash flow forecasts for a period of not less than twelve months from the date of approval of these financial statements.

Note 15 details a secured loan of £1,200,000 that has a maturity date within 1 year. This loan was renegotiated post year end and increased to a total of £2,000,000 with a revised maturity date of May  2027. The repayment of this loan is dependant on certain elements of the cash flow forecasts being realised in a timely manner.

Cash flows have certain dependence upon three specific projects, as well as the normal regular business trading:

• The timely loan repayment of agreed values from a non-trade debtor loan account, as agreed & included within the cash flow forecast.
• The timely commencement of loan repayments from another non-trade debtor, using cashflow generated from two specific new revenue projects within that entity´s business, namely:

1. the export of RDF/RCF to Scandinavia. Numerous contracts have already been executed,                  however, the commencement dates need to be timely to ensure the revenue forecast is             achieved; and 
2. the commencement of the import of waste, following the commencement of the export of          sand & gravel from a quarry facility in Scotland, to which the entity has an agreement to            manage. Again, the cash flow forecasts require this to start in a timely manner following            receipt of the final approvals required and contracts execution.

The forecasts indicate that the continued operation of the business including the repayment of the above loan is dependent on the realisation of cash inflows from certain other non-trade debtors, as well as the exception items listed above. 

The above circumstances indicate the existence of a material uncertainty which may cast significant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern and, therefore, on its ability to realise its assets and discharge its liabilities.

The director of the business has a high degree of confidence in the success of the identified              strategy & ability of the company to fulfil the loan repayments, specifically with the commonality of     the director across the different business entities. The incoming cash flows in the forecasts already   represent a cautious approach to the estimated actual expected loan repayment timings.

The financial statements do not include any adjustments that would result if the Company were         unable to continue as a going concern.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025

2.Accounting policies (continued)

 
2.3

Turnover

Turnover is recognised to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Company and the turnover can be reliably measured. Turnover is measured as the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, excluding discounts, rebates, value added tax and other sales taxes. The following criteria must also be met before turnover is recognised:

Revenue is recognised upon the receipt of waste from customers.

 
2.4

Operating leases: the Company as lessee

Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Benefits received and receivable as an incentive to sign an operating lease are recognised on a straight-line basis over the lease term, unless another systematic basis is representative of the time pattern of the lessee's benefit from the use of the leased asset.

 
2.5

Leased assets: the Company as lessee

Assets obtained under hire purchase contracts and finance leases are capitalised as tangible fixed assets. Assets acquired by finance lease are depreciated over the shorter of the lease term and their useful lives. Assets acquired by hire purchase are depreciated over their useful lives. Finance leases are those where substantially all of the benefits and risks of ownership are assumed by the company. Obligations under such agreements are included in creditors net of the finance charge allocated to future periods. The finance element of the rental payment is charged to profit or loss so as to produce a constant periodic rate of charge on the net obligation outstanding in each period.

 
2.6

Interest income

Interest income is recognised in profit or loss using the effective interest method.

 
2.7

Finance costs

Finance costs are charged to profit or loss over the term of the debt using the effective interest method so that the amount charged is at a constant rate on the carrying amount. Issue costs are initially recognised as a reduction in the proceeds of the associated capital instrument.

 
2.8

Borrowing costs

All borrowing costs are recognised in profit or loss in the year in which they are incurred.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025

2.Accounting policies (continued)

 
2.9

Pensions

Defined contribution pension plan

The Company operates a defined contribution plan for its employees. A defined contribution plan is a pension plan under which the Company pays fixed contributions into a separate entity. Once the contributions have been paid the Company has no further payment obligations.

The contributions are recognised as an expense in profit or loss when they fall due. Amounts not paid are shown in accruals as a liability in the Balance Sheet. The assets of the plan are held separately from the Company in independently administered funds.

 
2.10

Current and deferred taxation

The tax expense for the year comprises current and deferred tax. 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 balance sheet date in the countries where the Company operates and generates income.

Deferred tax balances are recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed by the balance sheet date, except that:
The recognition of deferred tax assets is limited to the extent that it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits; and
Any deferred tax balances are reversed if and when all conditions for retaining associated tax allowances have been met.

Deferred tax balances are not recognised in respect of permanent differences except in respect of business combinations, when deferred tax is recognised on the differences between the fair values of assets acquired and the future tax deductions available for them and the differences between the fair values of liabilities acquired and the amount that will be assessed for tax. Deferred tax is determined using tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date.


 
2.11

Tangible fixed assets

Tangible fixed assets under the cost model are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management.

SSSI LIMITED
 
 
 
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025

2.Accounting policies (continued)


2.11
Tangible fixed assets (continued)

Depreciation is charged so as to allocate the cost of assets less their residual value over their estimated useful lives, on a reducing balance basis.

Depreciation is provided on the following basis:

Improvements to property
-
20%
reducing balance
Plant and machinery
-
20%
reducing balance
Motor vehicles
-
20%
reducing balance
Fixtures and fittings
-
20%
reducing balance
Other fixed assets
-
20%
reducing balance

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.

 
2.12

Revaluation of tangible fixed assets

Other assets, being assets held for resale, are carried at current year value at the date of the revaluation less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and subsequent accumulated impairment losses. Revaluations are undertaken with sufficient regularity to ensure the carrying amount does not differ materially from that which would be determined using fair value at the balance sheet date.

Fair values are determined from market based evidence.

Revaluation gains and losses are recognised in other comprehensive income unless losses exceed the previously recognised gains or reflect a clear consumption of economic benefits, in which case the excess losses are recognised in profit or loss. 

 
2.13

Debtors

Short-term debtors are measured at transaction price, less any impairment. Loans receivable are measured initially at fair value, net of transaction costs, and are measured subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment.

 
2.14

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. Cash equivalents are highly liquid investments that mature in no more than three months from the date of acquisition and that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash with insignificant risk of change in value.

In the Statement of Cash Flows, cash and cash equivalents are shown net of bank overdrafts that are repayable on demand and form an integral part of the Company's cash management.

Creditors

Short-term creditors are measured at the transaction price. Other financial liabilities, including bank loans, are measured initially at fair value, net of transaction costs, and are measured subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

 
2.16

Provisions for liabilities

Provisions are recognised when an event has taken place that gives rise to a legal or constructive obligation, a transfer of economic benefits is probable and a reliable estimate can be made.

Provisions are measured as the best estimate of the amount required to settle the obligation, taking into account the related risks and uncertainties.
 
Increases in provisions are generally charged as an expense to profit or loss.

2.17

Financial instruments

Financial instruments are recognised in the Company's Balance Sheet when the Company becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

Basic financial assets

Basic financial assets, which include trade and other debtors, cash and bank balances, are initially measured at their transaction price (adjusted for transaction costs except in the initial measurement of financial assets that are subsequently measured at fair value through profit and loss) and are subsequently carried at their amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any provision for impairment, unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest.

Discounting is omitted where the effect of discounting is immaterial. The Company's cash and cash equivalents, trade and most other debtors due with the operating cycle fall into this category of financial instruments.

Basic 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 the deduction of all its liabilities.

Basic financial liabilities, which include trade and other creditors, bank loans and other loans are initially measured at their transaction price (adjusting for transaction costs except in the initial measurement of financial liabilities that are subsequently measured at fair value through profit and loss). When this constitutes a financing transaction, whereby the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest, discounting is omitted where the effect of discounting is immaterial.

Debt instruments are subsequently carried at their amortised cost using the effective interest rate method.

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

Judgments in applying accounting policies and key sources of estimation uncertainty

In applying the Company's accounting policies, the director is required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions in determining the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities as at the balance sheet date and the reported amount of revenues and expenses in the period.

The director's judgements, estimates and assumptions are based on the best and most reliable evidence available at the time when the decisions are made and are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be applicable. Due to the inherent subjectivity involved in making such judgements, estimates and assumptions, the actual results and outcomes may differ.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised, if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods, if the revision affects both current and future periods.

Details of the Company's significant accounting judgements and critical accounting estimates include:

Judgments

Going concern

At each balance sheet date, the director makes a judgment as to the appropriateness of the application of the going concern basis in the preparation of the financial statements. In making this judgment, the director makes assumptions and applies estimates in order to assess the cash resources available to the Company over the period of the next twelve months from the date of signing the financial statements. 

Where the judgment of the director is that there is a material uncertainty relating to the application of the going concern basis in the preparation of the financial statements, this is disclosed and explained in the financial statements. See note 2.2 for further details. 

Key sources of estimation uncertainty

Tangible fixed assets
 

Each year the Company reviews the estimated useful lives and residual values of tangible fixed assets and these are adjusted if appropriate. The depreciation rates are calculated according to the useful economic life that management believe to be appropriate based on the nature of the asset in operation. The residual value is determined by management based on their external valuation where possible and their judgement of all available information and their experience of asset usage.
 
At the balance sheet date, the Company reviews all tangible fixed assets for any indicators of impairment. Where this is deemed to be the case, the Company assesses whether there has been any impairment to carrying values taking account of all relevant evidence. The company has assessed that no impairment is required against tangible fixed assets as at the balance sheet date. See note 12 for the carrying amounts of tangible fixed assets as at the balance sheet date.

Impairment of trade and other debtors 

The recoverability of trade and other debtors has been assessed at the balance sheet date and up until the date of signing the financial statements. Management have based the decision to provide for any amounts based on their judgement of all available information and their experience of the specific nature of the trade debtors and other debtors in question. See note 13 for the carrying amounts of trade and other debtors as at the balance sheet date.

Discounting of debtors due after more than one year

At the balance sheet date, the Company assesses the likely repayment period for other debtors and loans that remain outstanding after more than one year from the balance sheet date. Management then determine an appropriate market rate of interest for a similar debt instrument as at the balance sheet date and these amounts are then discounted at that rate. See note 13 for the carrying amounts of other debtors as at the balance sheet date.
