Strategic Report for the Year Ended 31 March 2026

The directors present their strategic report for the year ended 31 March 2026.

Principal activity

The principal activity of the company is that of glaziers and joiners.

Fair review of the business

During the year, the company continued to provide a broad range of fenestration supply and installation services to both domestic and commercial customers. Despite ongoing economic uncertainty, inflationary cost pressures, and challenging market conditions within the construction and retail sector, the company maintained stable trading activity throughout the year.

Management remained focused on maintaining profitability, customer satisfaction, and operational efficiency. The company continued to develop relationships with suppliers and customers whilst closely monitoring installation schedules and labour costs.

During the year, the company maintained gross margins through a successful pricing model and cost management. Cashflow remained under review, and overheads were managed prudently in response to fluctuations in material and labour costs with efficiencies delivered by processes and systems.

The company's key financial and other performance indicators during the year were as follows:

The directors also review other Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) such as customer satisfactiom, installation lead times and debtor collection performance. These indicators help the directors to maintain profitability and positive operating cash flows. The disclosure of these KPIs is deemed to be prejudicial to the interests of the group.

Principal risks and uncertainties

The principal risks and uncertainties facing the company include:

• Fluctuations in demand within the construction and home improvement market
• Increases in material costs, particularly Aluminium as this has a volatile nature, glass (closely linked to energy), and hardware components
• Availability and retention of skilled installation staff
• Delays in supply chains and product availability
• Increased competition within the local market
• Customer credit risk and delayed payments
• Changes in health and safety or construction regulations
• Availability of fuel and transportation costs

The directors regularly monitor these risks and review business operations to minimise potential disruption and maintain profitability.

Directors' Report for the Year Ended 31 March 2026

The directors present their report and the financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2026.

Directors of the company

The directors who held office during the year were as follows:

Mr M Jones

Mr T G Jones

Mr A Oakes

Mr M Oakes

Going Concern

The directors have assessed the company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least 24 months from the date of approval of the financial statements. In making this assessment, the directors have reviewed current trading performance, anticipated future sales, cashflow forecasts, and available working capital facilities. The directors are satisfied that the company has adequate resources to continue trading for the foreseeable future and accordingly continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.

Financial risk management objectives and policies

The company’s activities expose it to several financial risks including price and liquidity risk. The directors have implemented procedures to manage these risks effectively.

Price risk, credit risk, liquidity risk and cash flow risk

The company regularly reviews supplier pricing and seeks to maintain strong relationships with key suppliers to manage fluctuations in material costs. Customer quotations are reviewed frequently to reflect changing market conditions.

Liquidity risk is managed through careful monitoring of working capital and maintaining sufficient cash reserves to meet operational commitments and supplier payments as they fall due.

 

Disclosure of information to the auditors

Each director has taken steps that they ought to have taken as a director in order to make themselves aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the company's auditors are aware of that information. The directors confirm that there is no relevant information that they know of and of which they know the auditors are unaware.

Statement of Directors' Responsibilities

The directors acknowledge their responsibilities for preparing the Annual Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations.

Company law requires the directors to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law the directors have elected to prepare the financial statements in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards and applicable law). Under company law the directors must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the company and of the profit or loss of the company for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the directors are required to:

•

select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently;

•

make judgements and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent;

•

state whether applicable United Kingdom Accounting Standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; and

•

prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the company will continue in business.

The directors are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the company's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the company and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

 

Camel Glass & Joinery Limited

Independent Auditor's Report to the Members of Camel Glass & Joinery Limited

Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of Camel Glass & Joinery Limited (the 'company') for the year ended 31 March 2026, which comprise the Statement of Income and Retained Earnings, Balance Sheet, 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 March 2026 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 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 original financial statements were 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 directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the annual report, other than the financial statements and our auditor’s report 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 there is a material misstatement in the financial statements or a material misstatement of the other information. 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.

 

Camel Glass & Joinery Limited

Independent Auditor's Report to the Members of Camel Glass & Joinery Limited

Opinion on other matter 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 Directors' Report for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and

•

the Strategic Report and 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 our 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 and the Directors' Report.

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 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 Statement of Directors' Responsibilities set out on page 4, 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 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.

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:

 

Camel Glass & Joinery Limited

Independent Auditor's Report to the Members of Camel Glass & Joinery Limited

As part of our audit planning, through discussions with management, we obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory framework that is applicable to the company. We gained an understanding of the company and the industry in which the company operates as part of this assessment to identify the key laws and regulations affecting the company.

As part of this, we reviewed the company’s website for indication of any regulations and certification in place and discussed these with the relevant individuals responsible for compliance. The key regulations we identified were health and safety regulations and breaches of The General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) . We also considered those laws and regulations that have a direct impact on the preparation of the financial statements such as the Companies Act 2006, the reporting framework (FRS 102), and relevant tax compliance regulations in the UK.

We discussed with management how the compliance with these laws and regulations is monitored and discussed policies and procedures in place. We also identified the individuals who have responsibility for ensuring that the company complies with laws and regulations and deals with reporting any issues if they arise. As part of our planning procedures, we assessed the risk of any non-compliance with laws and regulations on the company’s ability to continue trading and the risk of material misstatement to the accounts.

We also evaluated management’s incentives and opportunities for fraudulent manipulation of the financial statements. The key incentive identified is to meet the targets set by the group and we determined that the principal risks were related to the overstatement of profit, either through overstating revenue, understating expenditure or management bias in accounting estimates.

Based on this understanding we designed our audit procedures to identify non-compliance with such laws and regulations. Our procedures involved the following:

- Enquiries of management regarding their knowledge of any non-compliance with laws and regulations that could affect the financial statements. As part of these enquiries we also discussed with management whether there have been any known instances of fraud, of which there were none.
- Review of the group’s GDPR policy and enquiries to the Data Protection Officer as to the occurrence and outcome of any reportable breaches;
- Reviewed legal and professional costs to identify any possible non-compliance or legal costs in respect of non-compliance.
- 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.
- Reviewed estimates and judgements made in the accounts for any indication of bias and challenged assumptions used by management in making the estimates.

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. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement due to fraud is higher than the risk of not detecting one resulting from error, as fraud may involve deliberate omissions, collusion, forgery, misrepresentations, or the override of internal controls. We are also less likely to become aware of instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations that are not closely related to events and transactions reflected in the financial statements.

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

Accounting policies

Summary of significant accounting policies and key accounting estimates

The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated.

Statement of compliance

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', including Section 1A, and the Companies Act 2006. There are no material departures from FRS102.

Basis of preparation

These financial statements were prepared using the historical cost convention.

Summary of disclosure exemptions

FRS 102 grants a qualifying entity exemptions from the full requirements of FRS102. The following exemptions have been taken in these financial statements as the company is deemed to be a qualifying entity.

The company has taken advantage of the exemption, under FRS102 paragraph 1.12(b), from preparing a Statement of Cash Flows on the basis that it is a qualifying entity and its ultimate parent company, Camel Glass & Joinery (Holdings) Limited, included the company's cash flows in its own consolidated financial statements. The company is also taking exemption from disclosure of key management personnel compensation and exemption from disclosure of related party transactions entered into between the company and other members of the Camel Glass & Joinery (Holdings) Limited group.

Judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty

In the application of the Company’s accounting policies, which are described in this note, management is required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and underlying assumptions are based on historically known factors and experience.

Any estimates and underlying assumptions used by management such as for the warranty provision are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Any revision deemed to be required to any accounting estimates would be recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.

Warranty provision

The group provides a 10 year guarantee on products. The company recognises a provision for estimated warranty costs expected to be incurred for warranties in place at the balance sheet. This is informed by the costs incurred for chargeable warranty work carried out in the year and sales with outstanding warranties. The carrying value of the provision at year end is £425,403.

Amounts recoverable on contracts and deferred payments on account

The Company recognises revenue, costs and profit based on the stage of completion, once jobs are deemed to have reached a stage where completion is guaranteed. This is calculated on a job by job basis and is derived using the proportion of costs incurred compared to the budgeted total costs. Revenue is then recognised at the same proportion as costs. At the balance sheet date the Company had recognised £1,000,438 of amounts recoverable on contracts.

All stage payments are deferred as payments on account until the point at which the job is recognised based on the above criteria. At the balance sheet date there were payments on account of £1,819,147 deferred.

Turnover and contract accounting

Turnover represents amounts chargeable, net of value added tax, in respect of the sale of goods and services to customers.

In respect of contracts for on-going services, turnover represents the value of work done in the year, including estimates of amounts not invoiced. Turnover in respect of these contracts is recognised by reference to the stage of completion.

The value of the contracts for on-going services comprises the costs incurred on contracts plus an appropriate proportion of overheads and attributable profit. Any amounts not invoiced are separately disclosed in debtors as amounts recoverable on long term contracts.

Government grants

Government grants are recognised as income when they are receivable and all of the performance conditions imposed by the grant have been met, usually on submission of a valid claim for payment, in accordance with the performance model.

Until such time as the performance conditions are met, government grants are recorded as deferred income on the balance sheet.

Notes to the Financial Statements

Year Ended 31 March 2026

Tax

Tax is recognised in profit or loss, except that a change attributable to an item of income or expense recognised as other comprehensive income is also recognised directly in other comprehensive income.

Deferred tax is recognised on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements and on unused tax losses or tax credits in the Company. Deferred tax is determined using tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date.

Tangible assets

Tangible assets is stated at cost, less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and subsequent accumulated impairment losses.

Depreciation

Depreciation is charged so as to write off the cost of assets, other than land and properties under construction over their estimated useful lives, as follows:

Asset class

Depreciation method and rate

Leasehold property

10 - 20% straight line

Furniture, fittings and equipment

10 - 33% straight line

Other property, plant and equipment

10 - 20% straight line

Motor vehicles

20% straight line

Stocks

Stock is valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value, after due regard for obsolete and slow moving stocks. Net realisable value is based on selling price less anticipated costs to completion and selling costs.

Warranty provision

The company offers customers a 10 year guarantee on products supplied. A provision is recognised for the expected costs of future warranty work to be performed as at the year end date.

Leases

Leases in which substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are retained by the lessor are classified as operating leases. Payments made under operating leases are charged to profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the period of the lease.

Defined contribution pension obligation

Contributions are charged to the profit and loss account as they become payable in accordance with the rules of the scheme.

Financial instruments

Classification
The company holds the following financial instruments:

• Short term trade and other debtors and creditors; and
• Cash and bank balances.

All financial instruments are classified as basic.

 Recognition and measurement
The company has chosen to apply the recognition and measurement principles in FRS102.

Financial instruments are recognised when the company becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument and derecognised when in the case of assets, the contractual rights to cash flows from the assets expire or substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are transferred to another party, or in the case of liabilities, when the company’s obligations are discharged, expire or are cancelled.

Such instruments are initially measured at transaction price, including transaction costs, and are subsequently carried at the undiscounted amount of the cash or other consideration expected to be paid or received, after taking account of impairment adjustments.
