The director presents his strategic report for the year ended 31 December 2025.

REVIEW OF BUSINESS

The business continues to operate across two distinct divisions, Residential Garage Doors and Commercial Steel Doors, each experiencing different market conditions during 2025.

Within the Residential division, market demand remained below the exceptional levels experienced in previous years. However, trading proved more resilient than anticipated despite ongoing economic uncertainty and subdued discretionary consumer spending. Demand for side-hinged garage doors continued to grow steadily, supported by the ongoing trend of homeowners converting garages into workshops, home offices and gyms. Competitive pricing pressures increased during the year, particularly from European manufacturers such as Hörmann and Novoferm. Despite this, Teckentrup UK maintained its pricing strategy, choosing to compete on product quality and customer service rather than price alone. This approach enabled the business to increase market share whilst delivering a financial performance ahead of budget.

The Commercial Steel Door division serves a number of sectors, principally general construction and data centres. The wider UK construction market remained subdued throughout 2025, with many projects experiencing delayed procurement and postponed commencement dates. The greatest impact was within the data centre sector, where rapid developments in artificial intelligence resulted in many operators reviewing future capacity requirements, leading to delays whilst project scope and infrastructure requirements were reassessed. Given the long lead times associated with these projects, a number of anticipated contracts have moved into 2026, reducing revenue against budget for the current year. Despite these delays, the underlying project pipeline remains strong.

The challenges during 2025 resulted in a 20% reduction in turnover compared to 2024 with a consequential loss of profit but the balance sheet remains strong and cash balances were in excess of £700k (2024: £880k) at year end.

PRINCIPAL RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

The Residential division is expected to experience continued pricing pressure during 2026 as European manufacturers compete aggressively within the UK market. Economic forecasts suggest consumer confidence and discretionary spending are likely to remain broadly consistent with conditions experienced during the second half of 2025, resulting in limited overall market growth. The business will continue to differentiate itself through customer service, product quality and operational excellence to protect market share and profitability.

The Commercial division has entered 2026 with a strong order book and expects significant revenue growth as projects delayed during 2025 commence alongside new forecast opportunities. Current forecasts indicate that sales volumes could significantly exceed those originally anticipated for 2026. The business continues to invest in its sales and estimating functions to improve customer responsiveness and support future growth. However, the timing of major construction and data centre projects remains outside the Company's control and further delays across the sector continue to represent the principal commercial risk.

ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD:

Mr S Hilton - Director

13 August 2026

The director presents his report with the financial statements of the company for the year ended 31 December 2025.

DIVIDENDS

Dividends amounting to £43,456 (2024: £nil) have been paid during the year. The directors do not recommend payment of a final dividend.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT

During the year the company was involved in a number of client projects that required a significant level of innovation and technological advancement in order to meet the clients' requirements.

Teckentrup UK Limited has always pushed the boundaries of the industry in which the company operates. Our staff have the expertise and the know-how to ensure that the company remains a leading solution provider to our clients' needs.

FUTURE DEVELOPMENTS

During 2026, Teckentrup UK will continue to invest in digital customer engagement within the Residential division, providing enhanced online product visualisation tools to improve customer experience and conversion simplicity.

Within the Commercial division, the focus will be on successfully delivering the substantial data centre project pipeline whilst securing longer-term framework agreements across the UK construction and infrastructure sectors. Continued investment in people, systems and customer service will support the Company's long-term growth strategy.

DIRECTORS

Mr S Hilton has held office during the whole of the period from 1 January 2025 to the date of this report.

Other changes in directors holding office are as follows:

Mr J A Rodger - resigned 15 December 2025

BRANCHES

At no point during the year did the company operate any branches outside of the United Kingdom.

DISCLOSURE IN THE STRATEGIC REPORT

The company has chosen in accordance with s.414C(11) Companies Act 2006 to set out in the company's strategic report information required by Schedule 7 of the Large and Medium-sized Companies and Groups (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 to be contained in the directors' report. It has done so in respect of financial instruments and financial risk management.

STATEMENT OF DIRECTOR'S RESPONSIBILITIES

The director is responsible for preparing the Strategic Report, the Report of the Director 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 United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards and applicable law). 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. In preparing these financial statements, the director is required to:

-	select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;

-	make judgements 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 enable him to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. He 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.

STATEMENT AS TO DISCLOSURE OF INFORMATION TO AUDITORS

So far as the director is aware, there is no relevant audit information (as defined by Section 418 of the Companies Act 2006) of which the company's auditors are unaware, and he has taken all the steps that he ought to have taken as a director in order to make himself aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the company's auditors are aware of that information.

AUDITORS

The auditors, Christian Douglass Accountants Limited, are deemed to be reappointed in accordance with section 487(2) of Companies Act 2006.

ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD:

Mr S Hilton - Director

13 August 2026

Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of Teckentrup UK Limited (the 'company') for the year ended 31 December 2025 which comprise the Income Statement, Other Comprehensive Income, Balance Sheet, Statement of Changes in Equity 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 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 December 2025 and of its loss 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 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 director's 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 director with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.

Other information

The director is responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information in the Strategic Report and the Report of the Director, but does not include the financial statements and our Report of the Auditors thereon.

Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

In connection with our audit of the financial statements, 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 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 the audit:

-	the information given in the Strategic Report and the Report of the Director for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and

-	the Strategic Report and the Report of the Director 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 identified material misstatements in the Strategic Report or the Report of the Director.

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters where 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 director's remuneration specified by law are not made; or

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

Responsibilities of director

As explained more fully in the Statement of Director's Responsibilities set out on page three, the director is 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 director determines 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 director is 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 director either intends to liquidate the company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue a Report of the Auditors 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:

The audit, conducted in accordance with the ISAs (UK), required the exercise of professional judgment and the application of professional skepticism throughout. The audit was planned so as to identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, howsoever arising, and we subsequently designed and performed audit procedures responsive to those risks. We obtained an understanding of the company's systems of internal control, which management have established as described above, and undertook walkthrough testing to confirm their operation, solely to assist with designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances. We evaluated the appropriateness of accounting policies and the reasonableness of accounting estimates used by management. We audited the risk of management override of controls, including through testing journal entries and other adjustments for appropriateness, and evaluating the business rationale of significant transactions outside the normal course of business, if any. Further, we reviewed and concluded on the appropriateness of management's use of the going concern basis of accounting.

As a general commercial business, the company does not operate in a heavily regulated environment, however we identified areas of laws and regulations that could reasonably be expected to have a material effect on the financial statements from our general commercial experience, through discussion with the directors and other management (as required by auditing standards), and from inspection of the company's regulatory and legal correspondence and we discussed with the directors and other management, the policies and procedures regarding compliance with laws and regulations. We communicated identified laws and regulations throughout our audit team and remained alert for any indications of non-compliance throughout the audit.

The company is subject to laws and regulations that directly affect the financial statements including financial reporting legislation (including related companies legislation), distributable profits legislation, taxation legislation and pension legislation and we assessed the extent of compliance with these laws and regulations as part of our procedures on the related financial statement items.

Owing to the inherent limitations of an audit, there is an unavoidable risk that we may not have detected some material misstatements in the financial statements, even though we have properly planned and performed our audit in accordance with the auditing standards. In addition, as with any audit, there remains a higher risk of non-detection of fraud based irregularities, as these may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal controls. We are not responsible for preventing non-compliance and cannot be expected to detect non-compliance with all laws and regulations.

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 Report of the Auditors.

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 a Report of the Auditors 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.

1.	STATUTORY INFORMATION

Teckentrup UK Limited is a private company, limited by shares, registered in England and Wales. The company's registered number is 07981261 and its registered office is at 2 Jordan Street, Knott Mill, Manchester, M15 4PY.

The principal activity of the Company is commercial and residential door solutions.

The Total Comprehensive Income for the year is wholly attributable to the owners of the parent.

The financial statements are presented in Sterling, which is also the functional currency of the company.

2.	ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparing the financial statements

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland" and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.

Financial Reporting Standard 102 - reduced disclosure exemptions

The company has taken advantage of the following disclosure exemption in preparing these financial statements, as permitted by FRS 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland":

•

the requirements of Section 7 Statement of Cash Flows.

Preparation of consolidated financial statements

The financial statements contain information about Teckentrup UK Limited as an individual company and do not contain consolidated financial information as the parent of a group. The company is exempt under Section 399(2A) of the Companies Act 2006 from the requirements to prepare consolidated financial statements.

Related party exemption

The company has taken advantage of exemption, under the terms of Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland', not to disclose related party transactions with wholly owned subsidiaries within the group.

Significant judgements and estimates

In applying the company's accounting policies, the directors are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions in determining the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities. The directors' judgements, estimates and assumptions are based on the best and most reliable evidence available at the time when the decisions are made, and 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.

In preparing these financial statements the directors have made judgements and estimates:

- in determining whether there are any indicators of impairment of the company's tangible fixed assets. Factors taken into account in reaching such a decision include the economic viability and expected future financial performance of the assets;

- in determining the residual values and useful economic lives of tangible fixed assets. The company depreciates tangible fixed assets over their expected useful lives. The estimation of the useful lives of assets is based upon historic performance as well as expectations about future use. Assumptions are necessary regarding possible technological changes and maintenance programmes which can affect the actual lives of the assets;

- in assessing turnover and arriving at the relevant proportions to be accounted for in any period. The key area of estimation uncertainty involves the determination of the forecast margins expected on the contracts. Factors taken into account in reaching their decision include the actual outturn of previous assignments and job by job appraisal of performance to date, together with future expectations; and

- in determining the recoverability of debtors and stocks. The company establishes a provision for debtors that are estimated to be irrecoverable and for stocks which are not expected to realise at least cost. When assessing recoverability the directors consider factors such as the ageing of items, past experience of recovery and current information regarding the asset.

Turnover

Turnover represents the amount derived from ordinary activities, and is stated after trade discounts, other sales tax and value added tax, being recognised when the company obtains the right to consideration. In respect of the sale of goods, the directors consider that income is earned on despatch of goods. In respect of contracts to supply, turnover represents a proportion of total expected contract revenue, calculated to match the same proportion of total expected costs incurred as at the balance sheet date. The resultant provisions for unbilled income or income billed in advance are included in notes 13 and 14 respectively as amounts recoverable on contracts and deferred income.

Tangible fixed assets

Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life or, if held under a finance lease, over the lease term, whichever is the shorter.

Improvements to property

-

20% on cost

Plant and machinery

-

33% on cost

Fixtures and fittings

-

20% on cost

Motor vehicles

-

33% on cost

Tangible fixed assets are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. Historical cost includes expenditure directly attributable to bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary for operation by the company.

At each reporting date an assessment is made as to whether there is any indication that an asset may be impaired. Indicators may be from external, market based, sources or from internal, record based, sources. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated and impairment losses recorded so as to reduce the carrying value to the recoverable amount.

Stocks

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

In general, cost is determined on a first in first out basis and includes transport and handling costs where applicable.

Net realisable value is the price at which stocks can be sold in the normal course of business after allowing for the cost of realisation and, where appropriate, the cost of conversion from their existing state to a finished condition.

Provision is made where necessary for obsolete, slow-moving and defective stocks.

Financial instruments

Financial instruments are classified and accounted for, according to the substance of the contractual arrangement, as financial assets, financial liabilities or equity instruments. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the company after deducting all of its liabilities.

Financial assets, which are measured on a non-discounted basis at transaction price less any necessary impairment, comprise trade debtors and other debtors as detailed in note 13 plus credit bank balances.

Financial liabilities, which are similarly measured on a non-discounted basis at transaction price less any necessary impairment, comprise trade creditors; other creditors and accruals as detailed in note 14.

Income and expenditure generated in respect of these type of financial assets and liabilities, including interest receivable and payable and foreign exchange gains or losses, are recognised in the income statement as they accrue.

Financial liabilities representing financing transactions, being hire purchase liabilities as included in note 15, are initially recorded at the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at a market rate of interest. At each reporting date the liabilities are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method with the resultant interest charge being recognised in the income statement in the period to which it relates.

Taxation

Taxation for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the Income Statement, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity.

Current or deferred taxation assets and liabilities are not discounted.

Current tax is recognised at the amount of tax payable using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date.

Deferred tax

Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed at the balance sheet date.

Timing differences arise from the inclusion of income and expenses in tax assessments in periods different from those in which they are recognised in financial statements. Deferred tax is measured using tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the year end and that are expected to apply to the reversal of the timing difference.

Unrelieved tax losses and other deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits.

Research and development

Expenditure on research and development is written off in the year in which it is incurred.

Foreign currencies

Assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rates of exchange ruling at the balance sheet date. Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rate of exchange ruling at the date of transaction. Exchange differences are taken into account in arriving at the operating result.

Hire purchase and leasing commitments

Assets obtained under hire purchase contracts or finance leases are capitalised in the balance sheet. Those held under hire purchase contracts are depreciated over their estimated useful lives. Those held under finance leases are depreciated over their estimated useful lives or the lease term, whichever is the shorter.

The interest element of these obligations is charged to profit or loss over the relevant period. The capital element of the future payments is treated as a liability.

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

Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits

The company operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the company's pension scheme are charged to profit or loss in the period to which they relate.

Investments

Investments in subsidiaries are stated at cost less any provision for impairment.
