STRATEGIC REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 NOVEMBER 2025
- 1 -

The principal activity of the company continued to be that of the provision of temporary and permanent staff within the maintenance, logistics, energy, construction and associated industries. The business tailors’ solutions to clients’ needs which from time to time includes working as a contractor and on a price per job/task basis. As noted in last year’s report the company has been working very closely with the group’s specialist training and apprenticeship provision company. This collaboration has once again proved very successful and has continued to open doors which the company has previously struggled with. The company continues to add new customers of significant value and volume and consolidate those that were added in the previous year. The company and group’s activities have been very well received by the marketplace and pipelines are strong. The directors are excited about what the future holds for the business and the group, given anticipated investments in infrastructure and the energy sector. The directors anticipate the coming year to show growth.

Fair review of the business

In common with most UK companies, trading was impacted by economic conditions and in particular the effect of the new government budget creating uncertain in the market. Turnover for the year was below expected with £52.8m (2024 £56.9m), gross profit margins held up well at 12.4% (2023 11.2%) given both increased input costs and significant pressures on charge rates. Administrative costs have been subjected to an increased level of scrutiny and as a result of improved gross profit and cost savings, an improved level of operating profit of £2,135.4k has been achieved (2024: £1,738.7k).

The directors of the company continue to investigate additional opportunities for business growth as well as consolidating previous achievements. The business continues to operate its “Best Practice and Best in Class” approach, particularly in the areas of supply chain due diligence, regulatory compliance and social value. This expertise is being shared with both the companies supply chain and that of its existing and potential customers, this is resulting in new business opportunities being opened up.

Principal risks and uncertainties

The directors have identified three principal risks facing the Company:

1. Market conditions within the sectors in which the Company operates

2. The availability and supply of temporary labour

3. The cost and availability of borrowing

Sector Exposure and Market Conditions

The Company mitigates sector concentration risk through diversification into new sectors and markets, alongside continued organic growth within existing specialisms. The directors also work closely with key suppliers and funding partners to manage the impact of interest rate movements. As part of the Company’s regulatory compliance and social value initiatives, management is actively developing solutions to support customers and supply chain partners in responding to legislative changes. The introduction of Joint and Several Liability in April 2026 is viewed as an opportunity to further strengthen supply chain due diligence and provide greater assurance to clients. However, the implementation of Joint and Several Liability, together with the anticipated changes under the Employment Rights Act 2026, is expected to increase administrative and compliance burdens across the sector. These changes may create additional operational complexity, particularly in relation to supply chain transparency, worker classification, and contractual arrangements. The Company is proactively reviewing its processes and engaging with advisors to ensure compliance while minimising disruption to operations and maintaining service quality.

Credit Risk and Cash Flow

The industries in which the Company operates are perceived to carry elevated credit risk. This exposure is mitigated through the maintenance of credit insurance over debtor balances using a risk-based approach. The Company’s insurer provides specialist sector insight, and the directors continue to allocate appropriate resources to robust credit control and debt collection processes.

Planned government investment in infrastructure is expected to support demand and improve cash flow dynamics, particularly where shorter public sector payment cycles apply.

STRATEGIC REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 NOVEMBER 2025
- 2 -
Supply of Temporary Labour

The availability of suitably skilled temporary labour remains a key operational risk. This risk is being managed through changes to the mix of labour supply, service offerings and target markets. The Company and the wider Group are investing significantly in staff training and development to improve retention, enhance workforce capability and increase access to skilled labour. This investment is expected to strengthen operational resilience while creating additional growth opportunities. As part of this strategy, the Company has continued to develop its white-collar recruitment division, expanding its presence in professional and administrative labour markets. This diversification supports access to a broader talent pool, reduces reliance on traditional blue-collar sectors, and enhances margin potential. The development of this department also strengthens client relationships by enabling a more comprehensive service offering across multiple workforce categories. As with many businesses, increases in Employer National Insurance contributions present a further cost pressure. Where possible, these additional costs are being passed on to clients, which is standard practice within the sector.

Key performance indicators

Alongside the review of turnover and profit margins as the company’s key performance indicators, the directors also review debtor days, dependence on major customers and new business generation on a monthly basis to ensure there is no excessive exposure in any particular area. Debtor days have remained at an acceptable level at 58 days (2024: 67 days).

DIRECTORS' REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 NOVEMBER 2025
- 3 -

The directors present their annual report and financial statements for the year ended 30 November 2025.

Principal activities

The principal activity of the company continued to be that of provision of temporary staff within the construction, logistics, heavy process and associated industries.

The review of the business is set out in the Strategic Report on page 1.

Results and dividends

The results for the year are set out on page 8.

Contributions to E.O.T were paid amounting to £1,400,000. The directors do not recommend payment of a further dividend.
Directors

The directors who held office during the year and up to the date of signature of the financial statements were as follows:

Mr Ben Lerner
Mr Stephen Durant
Disabled persons

Applications for employment by disabled persons are always fully considered, bearing in mind the aptitudes of the applicant concerned. In the event of members of staff becoming disabled, every effort is made to ensure that their employment within the company continues and that the appropriate training is arranged. It is the policy of the company that the training, career development and promotion of disabled persons should, as far as possible, be identical to that of other employees.

Employee involvement

The company's policy is to consult and discuss with employees, through unions, staff councils and at meetings, matters likely to affect employees' interests.

Information about matters of concern to employees is given through information bulletins and reports which seek to achieve a common awareness on the part of all employees of the financial and economic factors affecting the company's performance.

There is no employee share scheme at present, but the directors are considering the introduction of such a scheme as a means of further encouraging the involvement of employees in the company's performance.

Auditor

In accordance with the company's articles, a resolution proposing that Henton & Co LLP be reappointed as auditor of the company will be put at a General Meeting.

Energy and carbon report

The directors have noted below the total kwH of their various premises. These figures include estimations on a number of properties due to the lack of information available from both current and previous landlords. The directors continue to explore options to further reduce the energy and carbon consumption of the business such as energy purchased from suppliers using renewable resources and carbon offset.

Statement of disclosure to auditor

So far as each person who was a director at the date of approving this report is aware, there is no relevant audit information of which the company’s auditor is unaware.

The company has an on-going banking facility and has not breached any covenant or condition that would cause such facility to be withdrawn, nor does it expect the facility to be withdrawn in the foreseeable future. Accordingly, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the Directors’ report and financial statements.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
TO THE MEMBERS OF LOGICAL PERSONNEL SOLUTIONS LIMITED
- 5 -
Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of Logical Personnel Solutions Limited (the 'company') for the year ended 30 November 2025 which comprise the statement of comprehensive income, statement of financial position, the statement of changes in equity, the statement of cash flow 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 FRS 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 30 November 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 Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC’s Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Conclusions relating to going concern

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

Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.

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

Other information

The other information comprises the information included in the annual report other than the financial statements and our auditor's report thereon. The directors are responsible for the other information contained within the annual report. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. Our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the course of the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact.

We have nothing to report in this regard.

Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006

In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of our audit:

- the information given in the strategic report and the directors' r eport for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and

- the strategic report and the directors' report have been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.

Matters on which we are required to report by exception

In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identifie d material misstatements in the strategic report or the directors' r eport.

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:

- adequate accounting records have not been kept, or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or

- the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or

- certain disclosures of directors' remuneration specified by law are not made; or

- we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit.

Responsibilities of directors

As explained more fully in the directors' r esponsibilities s tatement, the directors are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In preparing the financial statements, the directors are responsible for assessing the company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

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

- Reviewed the nature of the industry and sector, the control environment and business performance for the year.

- Identifying the laws and regulations the company operates within and enquiring with management if they are aware of any non compliance issues.

- Discussed how and where fraud may occur with all members of the audit engagement team.

- In line with all audits under ISAs (UK) we were required to perform tests to respond to the risk of management override. We tested the appropriateness of journal entries, evaluated the judgements made for accounting estimates to assess if any bias, and assessed the rationale behind any significant or unusual transactions.

A further description of our responsibilities is available on the Financial Reporting Council’s website at: https://www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditor's report.

Use of our report

This report is made solely to the company's members, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the company's members those matters we are required to state to them in an auditor's report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the company and the company's members as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

Judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty

In the application of the company’s accounting policies, the directors are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

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 where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods.

2
Accounting policies
Company information

Logical Personnel Solutions Limited is a private company limited by shares incorporated in England and Wales. The registered office is 5th Floor Sovereign House, 1-2 South Parade, Leeds, LS1 5QL, LS1 5QL.

2.1
Accounting convention

These financial statements have been prepared under the historic cost basis and in accordance with FRS 102 “The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland” (“FRS 102”) and the requirements of the Companies Act 2006.

The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the company. Monetary a mounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.

2.2
Going concern

A true t the time of approving the financial statements, t he directors have a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus t he directors continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.

2.3
Turnover

Turnover is recognised at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable for goods and services provided in the normal course of business, and is shown net of VAT and other sales related taxes. The fair value of consideration takes into account trade discounts, settlement discounts and volume rebates.

The company recognises revenue from the following major sources:

- Provision of labour

The nature, timing of satisfaction of performance obligations and significant payment terms of the company's major sources of revenue are as follows:

Provision of labour

Revenue from contracts for the provision of professional services is recognised by reference to the stage of completion when the stage of completion, costs incurred and costs to complete can be estimated reliably. The stage of completion is calculated by comparing costs incurred, mainly in relation to contractual hourly staff rates and materials, as a proportion of total costs. Where the outcome cannot be estimated reliably, revenue is recognised only to the extent of the expenses recognised that are recover able.

2.4
Tangible fixed assets

Tangible fixed assets are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost or valuation, net of depreciation and any impairment losses.

LOGICAL PERSONNEL SOLUTIONS LIMITED
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 NOVEMBER 2025

Accounting policies
(Continued)
- 13 -

Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets less their residual values over their useful lives on the following bases:

Plant and machinery
25% straight line
Fixtures, fittings & equipment
25% straight line
Computer equipment
33% straight line

The gain or loss arising on the disposal of an asset is determined as the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying value of the asset, and is credited or charged to profit or loss.

2.5
Impairment of fixed assets

At each reporting period end date, the company reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any). Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the company estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.

Recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset for which the estimates of future cash flows have not been adjusted. If the recoverable amount of an asset (or cash-generating unit) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset (or cash-generating unit) is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss, unless the relevant asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation decrease.

Recognised impairment losses are reversed if, and only if, the reasons for the impairment loss have ceased to apply. Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset (or cash-generating unit) is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but so that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset (or cash-generating unit) in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss, unless the relevant asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case the reversal of the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation increase.

2.6
Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts.

2.7
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.

Other financial assets

Other financial assets, including investments in equity instruments which are not subsidiaries, associates or joint ventures, are initially measured at fair value, which is normally the transaction price. Such assets are subsequently carried at fair value and the changes in fair value are recognised in profit or loss, except that investments in equity instruments that are not publicly traded and whose fair values cannot be measured reliably are measured at cost less impairment.

Impairment of financial assets

Financial assets, other than those held at fair value through profit and loss, are assessed for indicators of impairment at each reporting end date.

Financial assets are impaired where there is objective evidence that, as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the financial asset, the estimated future cash flows have been affected. If an asset is impaired, the impairment loss is the difference between the carrying amount and the present value of the estimated cash flows discounted at the asset’s original effective interest rate. The impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss.

If there is a decrease in the impairment loss arising from an event occurring after the impairment was recognised, the impairment is reversed. The reversal is such that the current carrying amount does not exceed what the carrying amount would have been, had the impairment not previously been recognised. The impairment reversal is recognised in profit or loss.

Derecognition of financial assets

Financial assets are derecognised only when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire or are settled, or when the company transfers the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to another entity, or if some significant risks and rewards of ownership are retained but control of the asset has transferred to another party that is able to sell the asset in its entirety to an unrelated third party.

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 paymen ts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortised.

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

Other financial liabilities

Derecognition of financial liabilities

Financial liabilities are derecognised when the company’s contractual obligations expire or are discharged or cancelled.

2.8
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.

2.9
Derivatives

Derivatives are initially recognised at fair value at the date a derivative contract is entered into and are subsequently remeasured to fair value at each reporting end date. The resulting gain or loss is recognised in profit or loss immediately unless the derivative is designated and effective as a hedging instrument, in which event the timing of the recognition in profit or loss depends on the nature of the hedge relationship.

A derivative with a positive fair value is recognised as a financial asset, whereas a derivative with a negative fair value is recognised as a financial liability.

2.10
Taxation

The tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax.

Current tax

The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from net profit as reported in the profit and loss account because it excludes items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and it further excludes items that are never taxable or deductible. The company’s liability for current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting end date.

Deferred tax

Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all timing differences and deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits. Such assets and liabilities are not recognised if the timing difference arises from goodwill or from the initial recognition of other assets and liabilities in a transaction that affects neither the tax profit nor the accounting profit.

2.11
Employee benefits

The costs of short-term employee benefits are recognised as a liability and an expense.

The cost of any unused holiday entitlement is recognised in the period in which the employee’s services are received.

Termination benefits are recognised immediately as an expense when the company is demonstrably committed to terminate the employment of an employee or to provide termination benefits.

2.12
Retirement benefits

Payments to defined contribution retirement benefit schemes are charged as an expense as they fall due.

2.13
Foreign exchange

Transactions in currencies other than pounds sterling are recorded at the rates of exchange prevailing at the dates of the transactions. At each reporting end date, monetary assets and liabilities that are denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing on the reporting end date. Gains and losses arising on translation in the period are included in profit or loss.
