GROUP STRATEGIC REPORT
FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025

Introduction
 
The directors present their Strategic Report together with the audited consolidated finanacial statements for the period ended 31 December 2025.

Fair review of the business
 
The Company is a holding company and has no trading activities.

Sentry Group Holdings Limited is parent of A2K Holdings Limited.

The principal activity of the Group is the provision of stock and distribution of components to the commercial aviation industry. Sentry is a global company that serves nearly 700 customers in over 85 countries. Our vision is to become the trusted global supplier of choice for aviation after-market spares.

On 30 October 2024, the Company completed the acquisition of A2K Holdings Limited and its subsidiaries by way of a share-for-share exchange. On the same date, A2K Holdings Limited's shareholding in Project Elysium Topco Limited was transferred to Sentry Group Holdings Limited for consideration of $17,500,001, settled by way of a dividend in specie. On the same date, Sentry Group Holdings Limited's shareholding in Project Elysium Topco Limited was transferred to an entity under the common control of the ultimate controlling party for consideration of $17,500,001, settled by way of a distribution in specie.


Principal risks and uncertainties
 
The volume of commercial air traffic continues to increase with commercial flights in 2025 up 4% on 2024. The expectation is that aircraft activity and passenger load factors will continue to climb during 2026 and beyond.

The Group in 2026 will continue to be cash generative and profitable due to the low level of overheads and lean culture whilst also forging ahead with its longer-term strategic initiatives to support future growth. 

Financial risk management
 
The Group’s operations expose it to a variety of financial risks that include currency risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. The Group has in place a risk management programme that seeks to limit the adverse effects on the financial performance of the Group by monitoring levels of debt finance and related finance costs.

Currency Risk

The Group conducts substantially all of its business in US Dollars, the currency that the international
commercial aviation industry uses in order to set market prices for goods and services. For this reason, the
Group is exposed to risk from exchange rate fluctuations when converting US Dollars to Pounds Sterling,
which it needs to defray certain administrative overhead expenses. The Group mitigates the risk by operating various foreign currency bank accounts.

Credit & Liquidity Risk

The Group actively maintains a mixture of long-term and short-term debt finance that ensures that the Group has sufficient available funds for the Group’s operation and future expansion plans. Working capital is monitored and managed to ensure that cash receivables from debtors is available within a timely manner that allows credit obligations to be met.

DIRECTORS' REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025

Greenhouse gas emissions, energy consumption and energy efficiency action

Streamlined Energy & Carbon Reporting Disclosure (SECR)

This disclosure has been prepared in accordance with the Companies Directors' Report and Limited Liability Partnerships (Energy and Carbon Report) Regulations 2018. The reporting boundary follows the operational control approach, covering UK operations for the reporting period under review.

The figures disclosed are based on actual consumption data and represent the organisation’s energy use and associated greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions during the 14 month reporting period.

Energy Consumption and Efficiency
Total energy consumption for the period was 194,451 kWh comprising:
Grid supplied electricity:    149,120 kWh 
On site solar electricity generation:  45,331 kWh 

Electricity generated from on site solar photovoltaic installations is consumed directly and has been treated as zero emission electricity for operational reporting purposes. Energy usage has been normalised against organisational size to aid comparability over time.

Greenhouse Gas Emissions
Greenhouse gas emissions have been calculated using UK Government GHG Conversion Factors, expressed in tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent (tCO2e).

Scope 1 Emissions
There were no Scope 1 emissions reported during the period, as the organisation did not consume fossil fuels directly under operational control.

Scope 2 Emissions (Electricity)
Scope 2 emissions from purchased electricity totalled 30.87 tCO2e.
These emissions relate solely to grid supplied electricity.
Electricity generated from on site solar installations resulted in no associated Scope 2 emissions.

Scope 3 Emissions (Selected categories)
The organisation has reported selected Scope 3 emissions relating to waste generated in operations:
Category    Current 14 month period   
General waste (tCO2e)  6.12    
Food waste (tCO2e)  0.01    
Total Scope 3 (reported)  6.13    

Recycled waste streams, including paper, mixed recycling, toner cartridges, and batteries, have been excluded from the Scope 3 total for conservatism, with no avoided emissions credits applied.

Food waste arisings were minimal and resulted in immaterial emissions of approximately 0.01 tCO2e.

Total Emissions Summary
Emissions Category  Current 14 month period (tCO2e) 
Total emissions   37.00    

Intensity Metric
In compliance with SECR requirements, the organisation reports an emissions intensity ratio:
Total emissions per employee: 
Current year: 0.45 tCO1e per employee

The average number of employees during the reporting period was 83.

DIRECTORS' REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025


This metric has been selected as it provides a consistent and relevant measure of carbon efficiency for an office based organisation.

Energy Efficiency Actions

The organisation continues to take steps to improve energy efficiency and reduce emissions, including:

5 electric vehicle chargers.
Cycle to work scheme.
Investment in on site solar generation, reducing reliance on grid electricity and avoiding approximately 8.5 tCO2e during the reporting period.
Ongoing waste segregation and recycling programmes, diverting over 7 tonnes of waste from landfill.
Responsible recycling of toner cartridges and batteries through approved recycling schemes.
Monitoring of energy consumption to identify opportunities for operational efficiency.
Further energy efficiency initiatives are under review as part of the organisation’s commitment to continuous environmental improvement.

Methodology Statement

Energy consumption data has been obtained from meter readings and system records. Emissions calculations have been performed using the UK Government’s greenhouse gas reporting conversion factors applicable to the reporting year. All data has been reviewed for internal consistency and reasonableness.

Disclosure of information to auditor

Each of the persons who are directors at the time when this Directors' report is approved has confirmed that:
 
so far as the director is aware, there is no relevant audit information of which the Company and the Group's auditor is unaware, and

the director has taken all the steps that ought to have been taken as a director in order to be aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the Company and the Group's auditor is aware of that information.

DIRECTORS' REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025

Post balance sheet events

On 30 July 2026, the Group completed the acquisition of Airstart Inc., a company incorporated in Canada, for a total consideration of $86.8 million.

The acquisition represents a non-adjusting post balance sheet event as the transaction was completed after the reporting date of 31 December 2025. Accordingly, the financial position and results of the acquired business have not been reflected in these financial statements.

The acquisition is expected to strengthen the Group's presence in the North American market and enhance its product offering, service capabilities and customer base globally. At the date of authorisation of these financial statements, the initial accounting for the business combination has not been completed and, consequently, the fair values of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed have not yet been determined.

Management is currently performing a detailed assessment of the acquired business and therefore it is not practicable to provide an estimate of the financial effect of the acquisition on the Group as at the reporting date.

Subsequent to the year-end, on 11 May 2026 5 G Ordinary shares were allotted with a nominal value of $0.1 and on 26 June 2026 46 H Ordinary shares and 9,223,997 H Preference shares were allotted with a nominal value of $0.1.

Auditor

The auditor, MHAwill be proposed for reappointment in accordance with section 485 of the Companies Act 2006.

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

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF SENTRY GROUP HOLDINGS LIMITED
 

Opinion


We have audited the financial statements of Sentry Group Holdings Limited (the 'Parent Company') and its subsidiaries (the 'Group') for the period ended 31 December 2025, which comprise the Consolidated statement of comprehensive income, the Consolidated analysis of net debt, the Consolidated balance sheet, the Company balance sheet, the Consolidated statement of cash flows, the Consolidated statement of changes in equity, the 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 December 2025 and of the Group's profit for the period 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 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.

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 ReportOur 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.


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 period 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 5, 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.


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 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, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below:
Enquiry of management and those charged with governance around actual and potential or suspected litigation and claims, non-compliance with applicable laws and regulations, and fraud;
Performing audit work over the risk of management override, including testing of journal entries and other adjustments for appropriateness, evaluating the business rationale of significant transactions outside the normal course of business, and reviewing accounting estimates for bias;
Reviewing of financial statement disclosures and testing to supporting documentation to assess compliance with applicable laws and regulations; and
Discussions amongst the engagement team in relation to how and where fraud might occur in the financial statements and any potential indicators of fraud.


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.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025

1.


General information

Sentry Group Holdings Limited is a private company limited by shares and incorporated in England and Wales under the Companies Act 2006. Its registered office and principal place of business is located at 3 Caxton Way, Watford Business Park, Watford, Hertfordshire, United Kingdom, WD18 8UA.

2.Accounting policies

 
2.1

Basis of preparation of financial statements

The Company was incorporated on 14 October 2024 and has prepared its first financial statements for the 14 month period ended 31 December 2025.

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 presentational and functional currency of these financial statements is USD. Values are rounded to the nearest dollar.

The preparation of financial statements in compliance with FRS 102 requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise judgement in applying the Company's accounting policies (see note 3).
 

 
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 Balance Sheet, 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

Going concern

The directors have assessed a period of at least 12 months from the anticipated date of approval of these financial statements including a review of forecasted trading performance, available headroom on working capital facilities and compliance with applicable covenants. This assessment includes consideration of the wider economic environment, including uncertainties with the Middle East oil crisis.

Based on these assessments, the directors have concluded at the time of approving the financial statements that there is no material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt about the Group's ability to continue to trade.

Accordingly, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.

FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025

2.Accounting policies (continued)

 
2.4

Foreign currency translation

Functional and presentation currency

The Company's functional and presentational currency is USD.

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.

Foreign exchange gains and losses that relate to borrowings and cash and cash equivalents are presented in the Consolidated statement of comprehensive income within 'finance income or costs'. All other foreign exchange gains and losses are presented in profit or loss within 'other operating income'.

 
2.5

Revenue

Turnover represents amounts receivable for goods and services net of VAT and trade discounts.

Sale of goods

Revenue in respect of parts supplied both as outright sales and on exchange is recognised on delivery to the customer.

Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised when the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods have passed to the buyer (usually on despatch of the goods), the amount of revenue can be measured reliably and it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the entity and the costs incurred or to be incurred in respect of the transaction can be measured reliably.

Rendering of services

Revenue for services supplied, such as repair charges, exchange charges and outright sales charges are recognised on completion of the services. All such services are short term in nature.

Revenue received from ancillary services is recognised when the right to receive payment is established, which is normally at the date of the transaction.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025

2.Accounting policies (continued)

 
2.6

Operating leases: the Group 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.

 
2.7

Valuation of investments

Investments in subsidiaries are measured at cost less accumulated impairment.

  
2.8

Impairment of fixed assets and goodwill

Assets that are subject to depreciation or amortisation are assessed at each balance sheet date to determine whether there is any indication that the assets are impaired. Where there is any indication that an asset may be impaired, the carrying value of the asset (or cash-generating unit to which the asset has been allocated) is tested for impairment. An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the asset’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s (or CGU’s) fair value less costs to sell and value in use. For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash flows (CGUs). Non-financial assets that have been previously impaired are reviewed at each balance sheet date to assess whether there is any indication that the impairment losses recognised in prior periods may no longer exist or may have decreased.

 
2.9

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.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025

2.Accounting policies (continued)

 
2.10

Financial instruments

The Group has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 “Basic Financial Instruments” of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments.

Financial instruments are recognised in the Group's Balance sheet when the Group 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 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 Group's cash and cash equivalents, trade and most other debtors due with the operating cycle fall into this category of financial instruments.

Impairment of financial assets

At the end of each reporting period financial assets measured at amortised cost are assessed for objective evidence of impairment. 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. 

Financial assets are impaired when events, subsequent to their initial recognition, indicate the estimated future cash flows derived from the financial asset(s) have been adversely impacted. The impairment loss will be the difference between the current carrying amount and the present value of the future cash flows at the asset(s) original effective interest rate.

If there is a favourable change in relation to the events surrounding the impairment loss then the impairment can be reviewed for possible reversal. The reversal will not cause the current carrying amount to exceed the original carrying amount had the impairment not been recognised. The impairment reversal is recognised in the profit or loss.

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 Group after the deduction of all its liabilities.

Basic financial liabilities, which include trade and other creditors, bank loans, other loans and loans due to fellow group companies 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

Financial instruments (continued)

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.

Derecognition of financial instruments

Derecognition of financial assets

Financial assets are derecognised when their contractual right to future cash flow expire, or are settled, or when the Group transfers the asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to another party. If significant risks and rewards of ownership are retained after the transfer to another party, then the Group will continue to recognise the value of the portion of the risks and rewards retained.

Derecognition of financial liabilities

Financial liabilities are derecognised when the Group's contractual obligations expire or are discharged or cancelled.

 
2.11

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.

 
2.12

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.

 
2.13

Borrowing costs

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

 
2.14

Pensions

Defined contribution pension plan

The Group operates a defined contribution plan for its employees. A defined contribution plan is a pension plan under which the Group pays fixed contributions into a separate entity. Once the contributions have been paid the Group 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 Group in independently administered funds.

 
2.16

Current and deferred taxation

The tax expense for the period 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 and the Group operate and generate 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;
Any deferred tax balances are reversed if and when all conditions for retaining associated tax allowances have been met; and
Where they relate to timing differences in respect of interests in subsidiaries, associates, branches and joint ventures and the Group can control the reversal of the timing differences and such reversal is not considered probable in the foreseeable future.

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.

Intangible assets

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the difference between amounts paid on the cost of a business combination and the acquirer’s interest in the fair value of the Group's share of its identifiable assets and liabilities of the acquiree at the date of acquisition. Subsequent to initial recognition, goodwill is measured at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses. Goodwill is amortised on a straight-line basis to the Consolidated statement of comprehensive income over its useful economic life of 10 years.

Other intangible assets

Other intangible assets are measured at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses. Other intangible assets are amortised on a straight line basis to the Consolidated statement of comprehensive income over its useful economic life of 10 years.


 
2.18

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.

At each reporting date the Group 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:

Auxiliary Power Units (APUs)
-
usage-based depreciation to model-specific residual values
Landing Gears
-
over 10 years straight line to a residual value of 50% of initial cost
Long-term leasehold property
-
over the term of the lease
Plant and machinery
-
25% per annum
IT and computer equipment
-
25% per annum
Warehouse handling forklifts
-
25% per annum

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.

2.19

Stocks

Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value.

The cost of stocks of aircraft parts is based on the cost of purchase on a first in first out basis.

The cost of aircraft parts which can be repaired and reused is based on the cost of purchase of the original aircraft part. When an item of stock is issued in exchange for a used part, the reused item is refurbished and entered into the stock pool. The cost of refurbishment is expensed.

Slow moving stock is not discounted as the Group anticipates that it can always be sold for at least its carrying value.

At each reporting date, an assessment is made for impairment. Any excess of the carrying amount of stocks over its estimated selling price is recognised as an impairment loss in profit or loss. Reversals of impairment losses are also recognised in profit or loss. The assessment is based on a review of all parts held to ensure they are still used by aircraft currently in service.

 
2.20

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 Consolidated 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 Group's cash management.

  
2.21

Dividends

Equity dividends are recognised when they become legally payable. Interim equity dividends are recognised when paid. Final equity dividends are recognised when approved by the shareholders at an annual general meeting.

 
2.22

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.

Judgments in applying accounting policies and key sources of estimation uncertainty

In the application of the Group accounting policies, the directors are required to make judgments, 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. The 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.

Critical accounting estimates and judgments
The following are the critical accounting estimates and judgments that have had the most significant effect on amounts recognised in the financial statements.

Stock
The Group writes down stock to net realisable value based on an estimate on the realisability of stock. Write-downs on stock are recorded where events or changes in circumstances indicate that the balances may not be realised. The identification of write-downs requires the use of judgment and estimates. Where the expectation is different from the original estimate or judgment, such difference will impact the carrying value of stock and write-downs of stock in the periods in which such estimates or judgments have been changed.

Tangible fixed assets
The Group applies judgment in determining the appropriate classification, useful lives, depreciation
methodology and residual values of certain high value aviation assets, primarily Auxiliary Power Units 
(“APUs”) and Landing Gear assemblies. During the year, management reassessed the economic use of 
these assets and concluded that, when deployed in leasing and exchange activities, they are held for use
in the supply of services over more than one accounting period and are therefore appropriately classified
as property, plant and equipment rather than inventory. Depreciation is calculated using usage based
methodologies reflecting expected daily utilisation or hours/cycles operated, subject to asset specific
minimum residual values. These judgments require estimates of utilisation patterns, holding periods,
future overhaul costs and recoverable end of life values. Actual usage, market conditions or overhaul
costs may differ from management’s estimates and assumptions, and any changes in these estimates
would result in an adjustment to the carrying value of the assets and the depreciation charge in the period
in which such estimates are revised.

Impairment of trade debtors
The Group reviews trade debtors balances for impairment and this is performed on a regular basis. Those balances which are considered to be recoverable remain in trade debtors and those which are not, are impaired and the impairment loss is recorded in the profit or loss. In making this judgment, the Group evaluates, among other factors, customer’s financial health and short-term business outlook including factors such as the general economic environment as it affects the industry.

Impairment of intangible assets and fixed asset investments
The directors perform an assessment to determine whether there are indicators of impairment of the Group’s intangible assets and the Company’s investment in subsidiary undertakings. Factors taken into consideration in reaching such a decision include the economic viability and expected future financial performance of the asset. Financial projections are prepared for the purposes of assessing potential impairments, and are based on the directors’ best estimates of future trading performance, making reference to available industry data.

Classification of preference shares
The classification of preference shares has been reviewed with reference to their legal form and substance as defined by the Company’s articles of association and the lending facility agreements of the Group. It has been concluded that the preference shares meet the recognition criteria of a financial liability and have therefore been recognised within creditors due after 1 year.

During the period, stock with a cost value of $14 million was reclassified to tangible fixed assets. The assets are now deployed in operating lease arrangements and are no longer held for sale in the ordinary course of business.
 
The assets were transferred at cost at the date of reclassification, which is considered their cost on initial recognition as property, plant and equipment under FRS 102. Depreciation is charged from the point the assets are available for use, in line with the Company's accounting policy. This reclassification reflects a change in use and has been accounted for prospectively.
 
The Company has no tangible assets.

Post balance sheet events

On 30 July 2026, the Group completed the acquisition of Airstart Inc., a company incorporated in Canada, for a total consideration of $86.8 million.

The acquisition represents a non-adjusting post balance sheet event as the transaction was completed after the reporting date of 31 December 2025. Accordingly, the financial position and results of the acquired business have not been reflected in these financial statements.

The acquisition is expected to strengthen the Group's presence in the North American market and enhance its product offering, service capabilities and customer base globally. At the date of authorisation of these financial statements, the initial accounting for the business combination has not been completed and, consequently, the fair values of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed have not yet been determined.

Management is currently performing a detailed assessment of the acquired business and therefore it is not practicable to provide an estimate of the financial effect of the acquisition on the Group as at the reporting date.

Subsequent to the year-end, on 11 May 2026 5 G Ordinary shares were allotted with a nominal value of $0.1 and on 26 June 2026 46 H Ordinary shares and 9,223,997 H Preference shares were allotted with a nominal value of $0.1.


31.


Controlling party

The ultimate controlling party is Acorn A2K LLC, which is registered in the United States of America.

The smallest and largest group of undertakings for which group accounts are prepared is Sentry Group Holdings Limited, a company registered in the United Kingdom whose registered office address is 3 Caxton Way, Watford Business Park, Watford, Hertfordshire, United Kingdom WD18 8UA.
